You don't have to pirate it, you just download it off their website and don't activate it. It'll work, but you can't change your desktop background.
It is if you don't pay for a license but at this point I don't even want to use it for free.
I thought it was young Albert Einstein who figured out how to make actually good beer by splitting the beer atom and therefore introducing bubbles in an otherwise flat beer?
Definitelt happens for first snow here in Estonia if it comes down unexpected.
2 days later we're back to being assholes.
That's fair
I assume that's somewhere where weed is legal and cheap (and vapes are available)
In my country, 90 grams of weed would cost you 1800 euros at street prices (though I suppose at 90 grams a month you're moving more than some low level dealers so maybe you get a discount). That's slightly above the median monthly salary of ~1600 euros.
I believe it's common for ADHD folks that caffeine doesn't energize you, but it might help you concentrate better. Or it might not. I don't know, really. I drink copious amounts of coffee and energy drinks and still have trouble concentrating.
Whether your insurance company should know these stats… IDK.
If this is the direction we're going in, definitely. It should also be available to your medical and life insurance companies because unsafe driving raises your blood pressure and therefore raises risk of a cardiac event in the long term (meaning you should have higher medical insurance premiums) + you have a higher risk of dying in a traffic accident, so they should be able to decline payouts for anything traffic related automatically.
Maybe also let financial institutions have access to stats here. People with unsafe driving records would get worse rates for everything because they're more likely to die and stop paying their debts, but in particular they'd get higher interest on their car payments because of the extra risk involved
Most average users consider Microsoft a trusted source, that’s the root cause of a whole lot of crap.
I remember when I installed SP3 for XP... On my AMD machine.
Lack of trust in Microsoft started on that fateful day.
For those in particular, they had 2 and 4 TBT3 models.
Corporation by definition is a large company or group of companies.
Not sure which definition you mean here. Anyone can incorporate. Your corporation could have a single shareholder and a single employee.
Other than going electric, cars haven’t changed much, either. 20-year-old cars that were well-maintained still look new to me, and can be easily modernized with things like aftermarket parking sensors and stereos with Android Auto.
Personally I just really love the fact that there are some easily affordable cars that in my very subjective opinion look nearly timeless. Easily affordable only because I live in Europe and do my own repairs: Mostly they are 15-20 year old German cars that WILL bankrupt you if give them the chance. W211 Benz and E60/61 BMW come to mind. W221 too, but I'm a bit scared of that one.
I was going to name some Japanese cars too, but I just realized that those are no longer affordable. God damn Fast and Furious movies lol
I thought this was pretty universally known in the US because I'm not from the US and never been further south than NYC when I did visit, but even I have seen it in some movie and immediately picked it up based on the tone and connect. I mean it was pretty much "he said something incredibly stupid" -> "oh bless his heart" between some southern grandmas
Might've been Big Mommas House, might've been something else entirely.
Well yeah, but an ICE car would've been pretty dirty too. For how light the cars were, they used a lot of fuel, and there was no emissions equipment whatsoever.
We've gotten pretty good at ICE efficiency. It's not as good as EV efficiency, but it's come a LONG way in the last 100+ years.
Some at least pretend to. "If we didn't have to police the world, we could save so much on military spending, Europe should get its' own shit together"
And while I as an European agree about the last part, I still think NATO is a beneficial alliance to everyone involved.
That's fair. This being the Fediverse, private messages aren't private either, so protect yourself!
Otherwise we might as well hand him all of Europe on a silver platter.
And sadly I believe that a lot of Americans would prefer isolationism and are fine with this, as they'd get to cut military spending.
Of course, Europeans buy American goods and vice versa. If Russia ruled over all of Europe, Putin could just stop all trade with the US as a giant middle finger.
How does Retold compare to the original?
Yes yes I know, I could Google it or watch a YouTube video. But no, I want honest opinions from other people on what is, in my opinion, one of the last bastions of the old school Internet, where you'd get real opinions from real people.
I loved the original, but never really played multiplayer - mostly because as a young'un I had no money, so I pirated it, but also because I just loved the campaign as well as experimenting with stuff that was never going to work as a multiplayer strategy.
Do you guys feel it's worth the 30something euros it costs on Steam? That's not a lot of money, but more importantly, games take time to play and I have very little of it these days. And once I buy a game, I feel committed to play it.
What part of your life could be improved with software?
I think many of us have noticed the trend that modern tech just... Doesn't make things better. There's little to be excited about, because anything even remotely innovative is going to be filled with tracking, ads, etc.
Let's say you had a bored software engineer or 2 at your disposal and the goal was to improve something you do often, by creating an application or website that isn't owned and enshittified by a megacorp looking to extract maximum short term value - what would your project be? Is it something you'd be willing to pay for, maybe with a free tier available?
The reason I'm asking is that I'm a software engineer and in the current hard-ass market, while I'm lucky enough to have a stable job, I know that experience alone isn't cutting it anymore in the recruitment process. You need to be able to show side projects too. Plus I have an unemployed software engineer friend who also has no interesting projects to show. So if we make any money out of it, that's awesome. If we don't, it's just something for our github accounts. Probably the latter.
PS: Yes, I know this is not a tech community - I want ideas from regular, non-techy people too.
PPS: This doesn't have to be something in your personal life, it could also be something that would help you at work if you had it.
How do you stop making excuses?
I'm sure many of you are familiar with the issue of making excuses for everything. I don't just mean excusing your unfinished chores by saying "I have ADHD", I mean excuses and fabrications in general - at work, you might say you're nearly finished with a project, but really you're halfway done at best, at home you might say you couldn't start the dishwasher because of how angry your pregnant wife was at you for choosing the wrong program on the washing machine, so you were scared to start the dishwasher - fully ignoring the fact that you were supposed to start the dishwasher BEFORE even being confronted about the washing machine. The last one is a stupid example, but it happened an hour ago and it's a pattern I hate about myself.
If you've had a similar issue and identified it, what has helped you improve yourself? I may never be perfect to the point I'll get everything done that I need to, but I'd like to at least stop making stupid excuses that just bring up fights that could've been avoided.
How to set up Podman with NVIDIA GPU acceleration and macvlan networking on Gentoo
Gentoo with GPU-enabled Podman and MACVLAN. GitHub Gist: instantly share code, notes, and snippets.
cross-posted from: https://lemm.ee/post/2871450
> Getting GPU acceleration working is a common task for those of us running Plex or Jellyfin. There is not much documentation for getting the NVIDIA container stack to work with Podman, even less on Gentoo, plus there have been a lot of changes to NVIDIA's container toolkit lately. > > I have been fighting with Podman for a while now and just recently got it working 1:1 with my Docker setup. Gentoo may not be the most popular or easy to use distro but I documented it in case some poor soul runs across it searching the web. > > Feel free to poke holes in it or leave feedback.
Welcome to a new unofficial Gentoo Linux community
There was already a Gentoo community on Lemmy, however it hasn't had any activity in 2 years and since Lemmy's popularity has exploded in recent days, I figured it might be time for a new one with active moderation.
Anyone reading this likely already knows what Gentoo is, but on the off-chance that someone completely unfamiliar with Gentoo clicks on this thread, here's a quick primer. Gentoo Linux is essentially a meta-distribution. You're given a package manager (Portage) that builds your packages from source, and some useful command line utilities. Other than that, you get your choice of everything - systemd or OpenRC? X11 or Wayland? Gnome, KDE or some other desktop manager? Or none at all? All up to you. Now of course, Arch provides you the same freedom of choice, but Gentoo's party trick is the local compilation - you can have the compiler optimize everything for your particular CPU's instruction set, or just leave out features you don't need in some programs.
Swedbank: Uusarenduste broneeringute arv on tippajast 12 korda väiksem
Paistab, et EURIBORi tõus ja kõrged kinnisvarahinnad on turuga 1-0 teinud. Isiklikult loodan, et nüüd tuleb mõningat hinnalangust - hinnad on juba naeruväärselt kõrgeks läinud Eesti palgataseme kohta. Arvatavasti hakkavad ka välja võetud teise samba rahad inimestel otsa saama, need olid suure tõenäosusega suures ostuhulluses ja hinnatõusus tähtsal kohal.
Keskerakonna fraktsioon tegi ettepaneku algatada peaministri umbusaldamine
Paistab, et Eestis hakkab jälle poliitiliselt huvitavaks minema. Isiklikult ma ei usu, et nad hääled kokku saavad ja ma ei kujuta ette kes uueks peaministriks saaks, aga kõik on võimalik.
