They’ve literally corporatized everything over there, everything is designed by committee now in hopes to hit as wide an audience as possible. They’d rather not take creative risks and create slop to get number to go up.

Ahh, a ~/.local/opt folder makes so much sense. I’m currently just using a ~/.opt folder, same purpose.

Did you mean to say a nuclear reactor being delivered by steam engine?
It’s a great photo though, kinda nuts how fast things moved then. It also reminds me of that story of a Chinese train driver standing next to the train he drives a few decades apart, from steam to high speed rail.

This reads like a classic LinkedinLunatics post and I love it. Great parody!

How about house them in a way that take away their voting rights and use them as cheap labor? Member how prisoners were used to fight the Palisades fires in January?

6 years ago when Outer Worlds released, I paid for one month of Game Pass, then cancelled it after 2 or 3 weeks or so when I had finished the game and got my money back. It was just a trial, like $2 or so, and it wasn’t like I was buying the game, it just so happened that when I clicked cancel it asked me why I was cancelling, and when I clicked “financial reasons” they gave me the option to refund. So I don’t feel like it was abusing the service, I genuinely only wanted to pay for that one month anyway.

But abusing GOG? That’s where I draw the line.
In theory, if you pay for the game there, you can download the installed which is DRM free, and without playing it you could refund it, and GOG Galaxy wouldn’t count any played hours. Although you’d need a pretty good internet connection to download that beefy installer, it’s not a small game.

Or the “How Much Sawdust Can You Put In A Rice Crispy?” video where they loosely tested how many percent of a rice crispy could be replaced by sawdust.

I like how the title can be read as either AMD gaslighting us by calling us confused or AMD admitting they’re the ones confused. Although knowing that no corporation would ever admit a mistake, it’s not hard to figure out which was meant through deduction.

The Danes

As a Dane myself, assuming the entire country is pro-surveillance annoys me to no end. Just a few weeks ago there was enough signatures to send in a proposal to folketinget to stop this insanity.
It ends with:

Når Rusland indfører masseovervågning, ryster vi på hovedet og kalder det diktatur. Når EU vil gøre det samme, er det “for børnenes skyld” og forventer, at alle bare nikker.

->

When Russia introduces mass surveillance, we shake our heads and call it dictatorship. When the EU wants to do the same, it is ‘for the sake of the children’ and expects everyone to just nod in agreement.

Woah, that’s wild. If you run the browser in fullscreen mode (F11) it’s almost like you’re running it on your own machine. Pretty cool service.

Remember Jarhead with Jake Gyllenhaal?
They were literally depressed because they didn’t get to shoot enough people…

But at what cost… At what cost…

That’s alright nutsack. It’s better to have posted and lost, than to never have posted at all. Or wait, is that about love?

I don’t even play Apex Legends and I’m still a bit butthurt to this day that they decided to add anti-cheat that broke Linux compatibility. They say it helped bring the amount of cheaters down though, but who can really tell besides those who collect the numbers - which is them.

A very stable genius indeed. He’s not just shooting from his fragile ego the hip, there’s clearly a masterplan we’re too dumb to understand here…

Aaand that’s how statistics work. But you should always be wary of the sample size! Especially in comparison to the “thing”, like if 1000 people were asked questions and they came from India, that’d be a really bad survey.

I did consider taking a screenshot before the edit from POW to POV, but eh.

Prisoner of war?

It won’t affect linux itself, you can restore the bootloader and get into linux when windows does that, it’s just that it’s a pain in the arse to restore. But yes, it has happened not too long ago that windows overwrote the linux bootloader. Microsoft obviously claimed it was an accident, but they obviously don’t care.
And no, on a separate drive windows won’t touch it at all.

EDIT: Maybe it’s not so hard to restore grub loader as I thought, could be as simple as these steps.
