Know somebody that lost smell due to covid and they also said there are certain things that just don’t smell the same anymore.

Like coffee apparently. It no longer smells as good to him as it used to.

One can be used in an airport/aircraft/train and the other can not.

One is fit for travelling and the other is not

But then how can we monitize our gamers if we can’t run at the kernel level and do whatever we want?

We’re selling games at an overpriced rate and putting tons of gambling and Mtx in our games. But this is unsustainable. We’ll go bankrupt at this rate! Just last week we had a meeting with the CEO complaining he couldn’t buy his fifth luxury boat because he had spent that years bonus on his 2nd aircraft. He said heads might start to roll at this rate to keep the company float. Where are we supposed to find the money to index 5% on the wages.

Some upper manager somewhere. Probably

We have confiscated all the laptops we could find sir. They had a TERMINAL open. Filthy hackers!

By the millions! Millions i tell you

To be honest my steam Deck doesn’t go that far beyond 4h either on a single charge when I lower all the settings.

I think the problem there is that there’s a lot of workplaces looking for extra people. Losing 1/5th of your workforce, but not financially is how I assume employers look at it.

The fact people are more efficient probably doesn’t mean more efficient than working 8 extra hours to them.

I could really do with a 4day workweek. And I don’t mean working 40h in 4 days.

The .htaccess file does nothing on nginx though.

I guess they might lose customers, but the ad revenue will offset it. Which could be a win for them. Less cars to produce for the same amount of money. If they survive everybody else will probably just follow suit. Like the car functionality subscriptions.

I’m just sad we reached this point.

Ban targeted advertising. Ban data gathering. You won’t even have to deal with the f***ing cookie banners anymore.

Note: I am not a lawyer.

You’re legally required to help, not risk your own life while doing so. If somebody is drowning you need to call the emergency services and if there is a rescue buoy close by you can throw that as well and try to pull them to shore that way.

I am not a lawyer, but I think in the majority of cases you should be covered by calling the emergency services.

As a side note: unless you’re a lifeguard or have had proper training, jumping in to save somebody drowning is dangerous. A person drowning will try to hold on to anything to stay afloat and will likely try to push you under trying to stay above water.

Looks like a one way relationship tbh :(

This. I used to have a bunch of the games backed up on a hard drive because copying the files over & patching was faster than redownloading it.

This is the reason why I only play cs2 with 5 or 4 people in the team. I suck, usually, but CBA dealing with salty tryhard teammates. At least the people I play with are just there for a good time.

I swear one of them should be in the 20k rating region if he wasn’t constantly dragged down by us losers. :D

Belgium has a Labor day as well. “Dag van de arbeid”

Its a plague in online games. If its anything like real life I assume that people just get a kick out of doing it and getting away with it. Stomping people and being elitist about it. I guess that’s the reason why people smurf too.

Like a rich kid feeling better than the rest because dad=rich and your dad is not.

People can do whatever they want in single player games. Run with infinite ammo, god mode, flying, unlock all skills at lvl 1, increase stats/or resources on demand. I dont care. Maybe it takes the edge off or maybe they want to go through the campaign story without all the grinding after a long day at work or school.

I’m not complaining. I won’t lose any sleep over it. If it fulfills your power fantasy or whatever. Go for it. You’re not hurting anyone.

But the people who cheat in online games can piss right off. They’re ruining of for everyone on multiple levels ( kernel AC, online enjoyment, … ).

I recently saw a documentary clip on how people cheat nowadays with arduinos and PIs to circumvent kernel anti cheat and stuff. It was fucking depressing.

If you get joy from ruining other people their day you need to go outside, touch some grass and contemplate your life’s choices.

The same goes for smurfs. If you want to stomp on something then go stomp on very easy bots while they aren’t sentient yet.

Tabs for indenting and spaces for aligning. There. Everybody wins and loses.

This way the code always looks aligned and if you prefer 4 spaces for a tab instead of 2 or 3 or 8 you can just set it in your IDE.

Crisis averted!

I’m guessing maybe the scheduler? Its the only real difference I see versus the other gaming distros.

Have a gander at project 2025 if you want to know what that future looks like.

Not to mention that if you want to type it in somewhere ( like your car for a Spotify account or whatever ) a passphrase like Hunter7-Tower-Ballsy9 is easier to type than some random gibberish with special chars.
