WolfLinkto Software Livre@lemmy.eco.br•Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again?2·4 days agoI’m running Ubuntu and the graphics driver has been fine.
It’s just as true a statement to say each of those 0 people at a billion slices of pie.
However, with these types of word problems, there’s usually the implication that the pie is now gone. There’s kind of a problem figuring out where the pie went when nobody ate any pie.

WolfLinktoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•If the penalty for a crime is a fine, then that law only exists for the lower class10·7 days agoHonestly sounds reasonable to me. But it would be nice if they could include deterring that over dramatic black-and-white effect lol.
AIUI the bags marked heavy get handled differently like being carried by multiple people.
WolfLinkto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Pearson complaining about using Linux to access my course materialEnglish1·7 days agoNeither have I really. It’s the last one I used, which was like 5 years ago.
These days I’m mostly using docker containers but all my docker containers as well as my hosts are flavors of Linux so YMMV.

WolfLinkto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•All I want to do is fly transport helicopters around in an online multiplayer scenario like I do in BF 2042 on winblows.English2·8 days agoPossibly. I haven’t played in a while but it was quite good when I did play.
WolfLinkto Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•The "Thank God Ledge" in Yosemite National Park, California3·8 days agoIf you wanna compare it to hiking, it’s like hiking a long distance in the wilderness alone without bringing any water or food or map or compass or a phone or anything besides some shorts and flip flops.
Even for people who are experienced in the wilderness, there’s a reason why you are supposed to take basic emergency supplies with you (and really the most important emergency supply being a buddy).
See: that guy who famously had to cut his own arm off. Also he’s “one of the lucky ones”. Experienced people die in the wilderness every year, just like experienced free climbers die.

It’s an interesting idea but this is a pretty massive oversight.

“It’s fine if it’s in a bag and off or silent” has been cell phone policy in my experience (decades ago).
The checked bag weight limit is to protect the worker who has to lift 100s of bags per day.
The only announced Nintendo games that are Switch 2 exclusive are Mario Kart, Kirby Air Ride sequel, and the new Donkey Kong
WolfLinkto Technology@lemmy.world•Discord co-founder and CEO Jason Citron is stepping downEnglish6·14 days agoI got nitro for higher audio quality so I could stream background music while running a DnD campaign over discord.
It also increases your streaming resolution and file upload size limit which is quite useful.
It also lets you use emojis from any server in any other server, which isn’t “useful” but is fun and I do it all the time.
For these 3 things I think it’s worth it. It’s worth noting I have a grandfathered Nitro plan that is more features than “Nitro Basic” but less features than the next tier at a cost that’s in between.
The real enshitification I’m worried about is the gradually increasing prevalence of ads in increasingly prominent places.
The syntax is a bit messed up, but I have a programmer joke
I very frequently have problems where I ask Siri “Hey Siri, play X from the album Y by Z”, and Siri goes “Ok! Playing A by B!”
