Still quietly asking myself why tf that is important. I need an OS to do a task, and I need it to be as easily configurable and as unobtrusive as possible. If I was into nursing an OS I’d have stayed with Windows.

Cobrachicken ,

Ty. Didn’t want to add “I’m using Debian, btw.”. Debian ticks all my boxes for ease of install, usage, updates, software availabiliy and - most important - stability.

Penis!

Does anyone know if any of these can be rooted or custom ROM very easily? (lemmy.world)

I don’t need it to be with zero effort, but most of the instructions I find these days on XDA forums are extremely ambiguous and assume the reader is someone who does this every day and therefore knows most of the steps and what the terminology means....

Cobrachicken ,

I assume that you can forget about any oft the LG ones, as they stopped providing unlock keys for the bootloader. Check the lineage vor /e OS pages for the devices for a first glance of info.

Some German cable providers do internal NATting please check that yours does not.

Is the Video Download Helper companion app safe on Firefox?

There is an extension/add-on for Firefox called Video Download Helper that lets users download embedded videos from all sorts of websites. While it works as a simple Firefox add-on sometimes, for a remarkable portion of sites (e.g. on Vimeo) it says that it cannot do so as installed and states that the user has to install the...

With that many users, don’t you think that app has never ever been uploaded to a site like virustotal?

Darwin cable.

go spread your stuff somewhere else? just a kind suggestion.

If you love it, then just follow that feeling and leave. Thank you kindly.

Fukushima, Tchernobyl.

Cobrachicken ,

Sure. They did a test in Chernobyl, with an unexperienced operator. And the plant at Fukushima was there after all, warning ir no warning, so why in hell should that be safe? Ok, next one: Zaporizhzhia. Atomic plant as hostage in a conventional war. Safe? Maybe not, with that whacko as Russian president. They even blew the dam that basically provided the cooling water supply for the plant. Now downvote me again.

btw: Interesting read: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c984l87l2w6o

Did you check at Aldi’s or Lidl’s? Maybe they ship it over instead of selling the local stuff. Here its in little bags and lasts years unrefrigerated.

Cobrachicken ,

I’m from Europe, the stuff they have here is good. Was hoping you had one near you to check if they ship it over. Sry if I raised false hopes.

Cobrachicken ,

Was thinking same, packs from unsold leasing returns. But probably not so.

Good explanatory article on a rather complicated topic. Ty for the link!

“Between the lines: The chaotic incidents indicate how much ultranationalists in Israel have been emboldened under Netanyahu’s governments, especially after Oct. 7.

It is also a sign of the disintegration of the IDF chain of command and the military’s internal law and order, encouraged by ultranationalist politicians who for years called the military a “liberal” institution and said it was part of a “deep state” that needs to be dismantled.”

Good summary, especially the last sentence sums it up.

"Musk told Peterson that Wilson’s gender transition has been the motivation for his push into conservative politics.

“I vowed to destroy the woke mind virus after that, and we’re making some progress,” he said. "

My god what a total dumbfuck.

FOLON is a total conversion, with some references to the other Fallouts, bacause it is set in the UK.

Cobrachicken ,

Exactly, thank you for this explanation. It’s in one of these videos that they explain the new assets (2d/3d models, textures) scripts and pathfinding stuff they created https://fallout4london.com/world-of-fallout-london/

Sry on mobile else would link to the exact source. Very impressive feat.

Cobrachicken ,

To answer your original question about the timeline, this may help.

A detailled version is here (not spoiler free!).

You can probably play the games in any order, but beware the first two are rather classics today, within the technical limitations of their time.

There’s also the Tales of two Wastelands mod, which combines FO3 and New Vegas on the latter’s engine. I’ve installed that, but admittedly was too lazy for a complete playthrough.

Plus, they needed a place to host that big a mod with connections to Bethesda to prevent a probable takedown order…

Cobrachicken , (edited )

It was mentioned in one of their previous interviews as reason to parner with gog. I’ve unfortunately not bookmarked it, though, and I’m too lazy to search for it, sry.

edit: found it: “At the very least, GOG is sure that its support for Fallout: London won’t upset Bethesda,“They’re also our partners so we wouldn’t want to do anything to harm our relationship.””

The person you replied to was solely writing about the treatment of young kids. So what you are writing is completely out of context, and, pardon me please, abdolute horseshit.

Yesterday in Kroger (a supermarket for you non-Americans) I saw a bunch of cans of potato salad. Why would someone buy canned potato salad? (lemmy.world)

Even if you don’t want to make it, I’ve never been in a supermarket that doesn’t offer a fresher option. I’ve even been in gas stations that offer what they at least claim is fresh potato salad....

As a German I would suggest to burn these stores down.

Help, looking for laser printer recommendations, rough around 100-200 range?

There’s so many models and companies these days and hard to know what’s quality and refills won’t cost an arm and a leg, or what long term will last at least half a decade. Previously went with Inkjet printers, but I’m done with them since I rarely print photos. TIA for any recommendations and thoughts on your...

Plant trees around your house. Shadow and natural cooling because they tend to evaporate water. Use white outer surfaces to reflect sunlight for additional benefit.

“Technology leaders to the United Nations and the Vatican worry that the use of drones and AI in weapons could reduce the barrier to killing and dramatically escalate conflicts.”

Interesting read, didn’t know the Vatican had “technology leaders”.

I have to admit that each time I saw a torx security screw on a case I had to open (looking at you, Compaq) this made me so angry that I used to punch the middle pin away with a flathead screwdriver, and replace the screw with a regular one later. This was in those past times I did not have a fuckton of assorted torx bits in a gigantic case…

The Seagate Exos in my aray consume 8-9W each on idle, and 12-13W active. I doubt that a NVME would consume that much in idle, which will be most of the time for data storage.

I remember reading about Elite in a (paper) magazine, and I WANTED IT. Counted my pocket money. Drove my bike to a mainly photo related retailer (only one reachable for me, they also did PC games as a side job), and there it was, box art in the window! Went in, told em I wanted that, and - big disappointment - they had to order it. THEY HAD A DISPLAY OF THE BOX ART, BUT NO COPY OF THE REAL THING! I had to pay upfront, cash, and then had to ride the bike there, again, two times, within a fornight, cos there was no notification of arrival then. The joy, tension, reading through the manual, while it was installing… unbeatable. Spent most of my afternoons in game, doing my “homework”.

Cobrachicken ,

It was a small shop, they only had a corner with “electronic” things, some computer stuff. They probably only odered a copy or two, not believing it would sell. But it did. Remember, this must have been the 1980ies, computers were somewhat rare and exotic back then. I think I was one of two in my class who owned one.

It’s the first step of many to follow. Bavaria already “promised” to make it as tough as possible for the clubs to establish. They will now need to spread and root fast before the next (most probably rightwing / CxU) government can start to revert all that was achieblved.

Despite war and sanctions, Russia becomes a high-income economy (economictimes.indiatimes.com)

Despite sanctions by Western countries against Russia due to the Ukraine war, the country has become a high-income economy from an upper-middle income economy. In its latest rankings, the World Bank has promoted the Russian economy to the top income category.

Just let’s wait a bit. Those folks bringing the money “home” will not last long in their cope cages.

Middle of the night, semidarkness, walking to the loo. Looking up…

Cobrachicken ,

Interesting thought. I think most issues stem from bigot assholes who consume the produce but are not allowed to due to their background/upbringing/social “norms”. And those within their normative set not willing to provide, because of the same background/upbringing/social context.

Also, w/o currency there will be other forms of compensation, like a certain amount of work time, or… (p.e.) a handful of apples… due for a certain set of services.

Additionally there is always a percentage of plain idiots who would socially not be able to ascertain this kind of services w/o paying, and these seem to need to demonize the servicer to feel better about themselves.

Sry if I busted this comment, brain is fried after work.

Thy already wrote this will not be powered on 24/7, just lean back and enjoy the pics and story :-)

I also noticed slow dl speeds some weeks ago, and had to restart the download. Nearly did not install it out of growing frustration. But it worked out in the end.
