The theme from civ 4 won a grammy in 2011… VGM has very much been in mainstream consciousness for a long time

I gave my mom a macbook with debian KDE and a mac OS theme… I dont think she’s noticed yet…

9488fcea02a9,

Because the people who do the bribing also control most of the media

Nvidia is still far ahead in non-gaming applications though. I’ve been playing around with stable diffusion and LLMs and nvidia is the most performant and it isnt even close.

I’ve been AMD all my life, but i recently went nvidia because who knows what other cool generative AI things i might try in the future.

I’m a private sector worker slacking off and shitposting on reddit/lemmy all day…

We are DEFINITELY NOT more efficient than the public sector

9488fcea02a9,

It should be illegal to not have a clear NO TIP button. I feel like we could easily legislate that if our politicians weren’t all spineless worms

9488fcea02a9,

Pipewire and debian stable here

BT audio works like 99% of the time. Then there’s that 1% it just stops working for no apparent reason and you spend an hour googling why without finding any answers. And in the end, unpairing, forgetting the device and the re-adding it fixes the problem in 2 mins

Overall very happy once i remember the quick fix

9488fcea02a9,

But these arent games… I’m disappointed

9488fcea02a9,

This meme out of date. He quit smoke

Or did i miss something and he’s back?

Depends on where in canada you are going. It’s a huge place. Each province ia very different from the others

Here is some general information that applies almost everywhere: Food: expensive. Almost all the grocery stores are owned by only 3 companies, so they dont really compete to have good prices Telecom: Almost all the internet/mobile providers are owned by only 3 companies, so they dont really compete to have good prices Health care: is really bad everywhere. Hospitals are all over capacity. People have problems finding a family doctor

Despite all the above problems, it’s overall a good place to live

If you can be more specific about where you are moving to, it would help. I’m sure we can give you some good things to lool forward to instead of all the negative stuff above

Welcome!

9488fcea02a9,

Uhm… These people are morons…

Gov’t funded doesn’t mean Liberal (party) funded… The CBC gets funding when conservatives are in power as well…

The fact that conservatives think that funding = favourable coverage says more about them than anything else

Henry Wu : Actually they can’t breed in the wild. Population control is one of our security precautions. There’s no unauthorized breeding in Jurassic Park.

Dr. Ian Malcolm : How do you know they can’t breed?

Henry Wu : Well, because all the animals in Jurassic Park are female. We’ve engineered them that way.

9488fcea02a9,

there are many people who say the same thing as you. “would love to both replace my commute with a better option”

i don’t know if this applies to you but personally, i know lots of people who say want to give up the car but won’t do it because they don’t see public transit as the better option. but they will NEVER see transit as a better option because they are using flawed metrics to decide

let me give you a simple example i hear over and over. “driving takes me 20 mins, but taking public transit takes 30 mins! i’m saving 10 minutes!”. no you’re not saving ANY time. 30 mins spent on public transit is 100% YOUR time. read a book, listen to podcast, or do nothing… 20 mins of driving is 100% lost paying attention to the road (in theory). people just need to have a different perspective of what “better” means instead of just comparing the minutes of each mode of transportation

What is the error you get when you try to connect from another device? If not a webserver error, then maybe a firewall issue. Docker might do weird things to your firewall rules when you first install

9488fcea02a9,

I stopped using docker because of this terrible behaviour…

How can anyone design a container that silently rewrites the firewall rules on the host??? Makes no sense

Podman manages to work without doing this

9488fcea02a9,

Distro hopping always leads back to debian

99% of the time, whatever drew you to a shiny new distro could be achieved in debian with minimal effort

9488fcea02a9,

Podman didnt silently rewrite my firewall rules upon install

10/10 would recommend

9488fcea02a9,

If there is such a big push for power efficiency from RISC cpus, why arm instead of risc-v?

Companies would save a ton on licensing costs

9488fcea02a9,

Why arm instead of risc-v though?

9488fcea02a9,

For the second time in 7 years, i had a mid run shitting emergency

How often does this happen to you guys? Is it normal? Or am i above average unlucky?

9488fcea02a9,

Almost all journalism outlets have similar policies.

Which leads conspiracy theory types to latch on and post things like “the CBC/BBC wont condemn hamas as terrorists! The mainstream media sucks!”, when in fact these policies have been in place fpr decades

9488fcea02a9,

The whole story is wild…

Dude did not plan on taking the record. He just felt really good in the last 10k and said, “fuck it. Let’s try for under 2 hrs” (not his actual words)

Ends up taking the record and had enough energy to jump around and celebrate after the line

This was only his 3rd marathon

Wtf…

Hey my cat has a genetic mutation that makes him cold all the time in our canadian climate

Cool, lets breed more of them!

php has a log message about killing children, i think i saw once

9488fcea02a9,

I tried it once and it rewrote all my firewall rules without telling me

9488fcea02a9,

Nope. Debian

GabeN lives forever.

Unfortunately, being a “loveable fat guy” also raises his risk of many obesity related diseases, :(

I hope he is an outlier

A few more cuts to public services should fix the problem… Or outsource to the lowest bidder!

Windows pc calling home (even while asleep) (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I have a network-wide pi hole and I noticed that it requested activity.windows.com, a url blocked by my pi hole, even while my pc is suspended. I pinged 10.0.0.217 and it is currently unreachable. So, somehow, windows pc’s turn on networking, phones home, and turns off even while suspended....

I only learned this during the pandemic when i started working from home and my work laptop would wake up at 1am, fans blasting 100%

Or my laptop would wake up in my backpack during my commute and drain the whole battery…

I opened a helpdesk ticket and they didnt know why. Their solution was “just turn off your laptop”…

After doing my owm digging, i realized S3 was gone and windows just does whatever the fuck it wants

9488fcea02a9,

Yeah, useradd should be the default over adduser

What if we increased the number of trailers to 12 or something… But the trucks will be so dangerous that we should give them their own separated lane… And then we can build these massive trucks that can pull 100 trailers at once…

Also removed themselves as the only player in the “compact” phone segment

I was a sony compact model user only for many years. Now, the smallest possible phone you can buy is samsung galaxy

Building and maintaining his brand is a significant part of his job. Same with understanding what people may be interested in reading about to know how to steer stories and the like.

If that’s your full time job then maybe dont outsource it to some random company that gets bought by some random dude…

Yeah… Full time work is hard

9488fcea02a9,

Also lifetime maintenance…

Bikes cause hardly any damage vs cars making potholes every year

It’s not just the softness of the material… Sidewalks have lots of undulations and uneven angles every time you cross a driveway or a junction. Also gaps and cracks

Jogging 2km on a sidwalk is fine

Running at a serious speed over 10k on an uneven, hard surface like sidewalk is a high chance of injury

9488fcea02a9,

In evolutionary terms, this IS progress.

If this was truly the caveman days, they would just die after 10 years without reproducing

The fact that they went to get some help and conceived after 4 years is good for them… But bad foe our collective gene pool

9488fcea02a9,

I love how conservatives are all like “TOUGH ON CRIME!!!”

“NO, NOT THIS TYPE OF CRIME!”

A lot of linux desktop environments will break as well if you remove some seemingly useless package

$sudo apt remove kwrite

The following packages with also be REMOVED: kde-plasma-desktop, [all the other KDE desktop packages]

Becauae if you concentrate all your social housing in one “cheap” area, you end up with a ghetto
