Hello thanks for visiting my profile.

I have a Coolermaster AIO, it’s nice, if you can pair it with a low noise power supply (my RMX shift series I am very happy with so far over two years) and your case fans don’t whine, then you will have a pleasantly quiet experience on your desktop with most tasks up to light gaming. An air cooler with as big a radiator you can fit may work just as well.
Performance wise I think they aren’t too different, there are premium and budget types for both liquid and air coolers.
This may or may not help. But I’ll give you the basic steps using wine only and no Proton magic to run a game from disk:
WINEPREFIX=[full path to new folder] winecfg command in terminal (just winecfg if you will use the default prefix).WINEPREFIX=/some/path wine /media/something/cdrom1/setup.exe, install the game to C:WINEPREFIX=/some/path wine '/some/path/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Cool Game/coolgame.exe
As soon as I read his trademark word I knew it was Doctorow, awesome! I’ll give this a full listen sometime later.
That’s where I think Bazzite really shines… I didn’t need the terminal to setup all of the normal stuff at all, and new apps I discovered right from the start menu so I didn’t need to go far at all.
How about construction vehicles with a cute little indication of their status… some suggestions:
“tired” becomes a little tornado cloud coming out from the bubble.
Idle is zzzs coming from the bubble
You could use these kinds of marks, as inspiration.
Maybe in gaming is where we will see it first, before other software and webapps.
If the DRAM shortage is long and protracted, perhaps more dumb appliances will make their return, but that’s just a pipe dream of mine.
Bazzite is great out of the box. My favourite part is that the menu automatically suggests flatpak apps you might want to install without getting in the way of your existing apps.
No matter the distro (since there’s plenty of good ones out there), help your friend set up Winboat and you’ll be all good.
The OG Steam Deck 256GB launched at a price of US$529 so it was clearance pricing, more or less. (The 64GB launched at $399).
The meme of “Valve maintains dominance by doing nothing but waits for competition to trip over itself” is funny but they do put part of the billions they make towards beneficial products for their customers.
Not out of the goodness of their heart but to drive sales and foster a customer base willing to return.
GOG and itch do try in their own way so I have bought from them, IMO they are the only competitors making serious efforts to build a mutually benefical gaming ecosystem.
Epic, Microsoft, Ubisoft, EA and the rest are like a trapdoor with a wooden board over it. Tim Sweeney is standing there hoping you won’t think he’s trying to find the right time to swipe the board away and get you to fall in.
What’s your goal, to take random designs other people made and print them, or to make your own stuff for fun or for some practical purpose?
The first original thing I’d made was a box to hold double-A batteries.
The slicer converts models into code to suit your printer. I use CURA for that.
Just ensure that you have your bed and extruder temps set right, and you pick an infill setting you like (I go 15-20% and Cubic). Make sure to preview the model and ensure that any significant overhang is supported. The bed on your machine autolevels but for anyone else, level your bed before starting your first print.
Only other software you need is 3d modeling software to make your own models. I’ve used Blender and FreeCAD but more expensive professional tools will work too.
So generally the national laws are well documented as to what’s a crime and what’s not. Often there’s a website.
Civil vs. Common law jurisdiction matters a fair bit. (As a gross simplification), in a civil law country that text is supposed to be the be-all end-all, judges are supposed to interpret cases based on whether the text of the law was followed or not and use their own discretion on whether past decisions should influence an active case. In common law jurisdictions, precedence from past cases matter a lot, and those decisions are cited by lawyers to say why it should be the same judgment or reasons why this case is different than previous to judge differently.
Then you have sub-national (state, province, prefecture) laws. Those will be well defined but their free availability from an official source online may vary.
Local by-laws will also depend on the location, they have less money so it may not be readily available digitally.
Some governments delegate rulemaking in specific areas, industries or fields to an internal ministry/department, to a professional body (engineers, doctors, lawyers etc.), or an organization (HOA, non profits). They are usually authorized by the law to set, modify, and enforce rules in that specialized area, with a maximum penalty they are permitted to give out for infractions.
So there’s no book of all rules everywhere that can be searched that apply to a specific area.
This literally happened for me with the movie(s) Wicked. I didn’t watch the first part just to have it end half way through the story and be told to wait until next year. Then the second half comes out, and after the opening weekend where a couple downtown theatres had busy double feature special events, Part 1 was playing in theatres literally nowhere in my city. And no way I’m signing my life away for Bezos BS just to watch this. (Does a stream even earn the movie studio anything significant? The theatres get nothing…)
I only bought a ticket to watch Part 2 because I viewed Part 1 by other means. The theatres missed out on an opportunity for me to watch the first one in succession with the second. And if I didn’t watch the first, then I wouldn’t have watched it at all and the theatres and publishers would have missed out on a sale.
If the copyright industry calls missed sales “stealing”, the theatres and publishing licensors steal from themselves by making it difficult to view the full story.
Yeah it could have been that.
I can recall two instances of Lemmy making the news…
One, IIRC is of some person who carried out political violence or some other nasty thing who also just so happened to host a Lemmy server in the years pre-Reddit-exodus for unrelated reasons. I can’t remember enough details to find the article if someone can help.
The second is a 404media article crediting @[email protected] for spotting missing sections of the Constitution on the White House website (article, discussion)
In Canada: Vancouver, BC. Just don’t go beyond the city limits.
Kingston, ON: if you can get past big box suburbia near the highway, the downtown is small and charming.
Montreal, QC is also very cool. Downtowns of major cities in Canada are generally very nice places to be, but outside there it depends on the city how sprawling the suburbs are.
I’ve never shopped at a Walmart in Japan. It’s really fun to visit.
The writing style of the linked article reeks of AI prose… even if I agree with the point the author makes, and there appear to be linked sources, the article makes me retch a bit.
People can chop wood to heat their home if they want, and is great to see people come together volunteering to help cut and store firewood, I don’t think the existence of woodbanks are a bad thing. It’s just when people are forced to rely on the work of volunteers when government could have easily stepped in to provide affordable alternatives. Instead people who don’t have the ability to source their own firewood depend fully on the whims of the heating fuel market or on charity.
This is like an ebay auction for billion dollar companies…
For debugging there is the Google antigravity method: there can’t be bugs if it wipes the whole drive containing your project (taps head)
Nadella, go ahead, keep trying to meet your slop metrics and slop KPIs. You’re doing a great job moving people to Linux.
