Dr Becky and PBS Space Time are my favourites. No bullshit, everything scientifically accurate.

bjoern_tantau,
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

What always irked me about that show was that the actual science, like how things were found out and how certain we are in that assessment, is totally glossed over. It sounds more like two potheads philosophising on their couch. It might be entertaining, but you may run away with a severe lack of understanding.

Forgot to mention Arvin Ash. Sometimes a little bit too clickbaity but overall pretty good. And he will correct himself if he got something wrong which is always a plus.

Especially the early QM videos by Sabine Hossenfelder are great. Lately she’s just researching popular science news which may or may not be correct. But I like that she is at least stating her bias when she has one.

But I cringe every time she has a NordVPN ad.

I’m thinking of Wayne’s World and Bill And Ted.

I did manage to get ALVR working. Can’t tell you what’s all needed. But sometimes you just have to find the right version. And SteamVR needs access to some devices. it should ask for root permissions on first run.

Other things to play around with are the video codecs. Or using the flatpak version or a normal system install of Steam.

I don’t have my PC at the moment, so I couldn’t give you specifics. But it definitely worked with my Quest 1.

I think it would help if you told people what Ning did.

“An Nvidia RTX graphics card is required.”

Not sure what the purpose is then, apart from showing that it’s possible.

Saw a documentary about Vienna the other day. They have state sponsored housing that is cheap or free and nice to look at and situated together in rich neighbourhoods to work against segregation.

Don’t know if this is the case for all of Vienna or Austria.

Still on Baldur’s Gate 3. Just started my fifth or so character. An Abserd (someone multiclassing into every class) character who fools around in Honour Mode. Works surprisingly well so far and I still manage to find stuff I have never seen before.

It’s easier to enshitify D&D with dndbeyond.

Wollte Brokeeats empfehlen. Aber mit dem Pizza Maker bist du ja super eingeschränkt.

Wie wäre es mit Kartoffelpuffer?

Honestly, with a good director I see this work better than as a game.

How often to you bail on a half-written post or response?

I have had a tendency since my earliest days on social media where I will get halfway or more through a response, and end up just cancelling it. Sometimes I feel like I’m just being to over the top with snark or otherwise don’t want to be that kind of person, but a lot of the time I’ll decide I just really don’t care...

bjoern_tantau,
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

You’ll be getting less answers from people who cancel more often. 😉

I think I cancel my posts about 1 to 5 percent of the time. Usually when it gets longer and I notice that my brain is too stupid to continue. Sometimes also when I catch myself being a little bit too sarcastic.

bjoern_tantau,
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

Sure, points are pointless. I still get a dopamine hit when the number goes up or I get nice comments.

And I just wanted to bail on this comment, because I’m not sure if I grasp everything. But considering the topic I will leave it.

On a PC you should be able to play it with VLC. At least I think you can. Don’t know how it is on Windows.

I wouldn’t respond to a ticket that just consists of the word Hello and a black rectangle either.

There have even been times when Fortnite’s anti cheat was broken so that you could actually play the game perfectly fine on Linux.

I also once managed to get long enough into a game to be yelled at because the mic is open by default (which happened to be my laptop mic). Then I got kicked by anti cheat.

Nah, I was just boredly fooling around a few years ago.

My laptop with OpenSUSE Tumbleweed has been up for 9 days. I even use it at night to listen to YouTube videos to sleep.

Ablageort: Auf der Terrasse hinterm Carport (weil ich derzeit keine Treppen zur Haustür hoch steigen kann)

Nachricht: Paket wurde persönlich an Empfänger übergeben

Realität: Paket ist zerknautscht im Briefkasten neben der Haustür

Müsste reines H2O nicht auch schlecht sein? Man soll doch kein destilliertes Wasser trinken. Hab keine Ahnung was dann genau passiert, bzw ab welchen Mengen.

Ich will als Grüner aber auch nicht mit der CxU zusammenarbeiten müssen, um zumindest ein bisschen regieren zu können. Außerdem ist es sicher auch gut für das Narrativ, dass nur die FDP Schuld ist.

Under certain circumstances Lae’zel tells you that she’s thinking of boning Wyll or Astarion. And afterwards that she did so. So there’s definitely some major bonage going on in the background.

In my head canon Wyll and Karlach also got together.

Critical Role had a guest playing a blind character. It was a wizard with folk hero background who used his bird familiar to see. He was awesome.

I’m dreaming of a VR game with a disabled wizard who is confined to a chair and uses telekinesis or teleportation to move around. That would give the game a lore reason for VR locomotion.

Oh, wow. For some reason I thought he was going to sell it.
