That is not a good excuse for a company that makes money thanks to Java.

So you completely accept the state’s monopoly on violence

That’s the whole point of the state. And no, you guys are not fighting the US army with its armored vehicles, rockets, bombs, drones, etc. with your guns if it comes to this.

From my open office experience, it is often not better with colleagues. A lot of noise, distractions, useless conversations. That is not as bad as kids, but this is why I always dreamt to WFH. I will always be grateful to the person who under cooked that bat in 2019.

Luckily you don’t need to look at it while driving! I’m more concerned about spikes, they don’t look comfortable to constantly touch them.

I doubt they will. Ninendo is not fighting with PS and Xbox, and it surely has no reason to fight with Steam Deck and other powerful portables. They found their market, and they are extremely successful at what they are doing. One does not need super hardware to create wonderful games.

Yeah, that is exactly what somebody who is planning to announce Switch 2 would say.

Yes, but they sue Steam that has competitors selling games for the same price instead of literal monopolies. Even Apple was forced to open up to other app stores.

My favorite recent example:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1493640/Banishers_Ghosts_of_New_Eden/ (50 EUR)

https://www.playstation.com/de-de/games/banishers-ghosts-of-new-eden/ (60 EUR)

PS5 game on sale did cost 2 EUR less than the regular price on Steam. I don’t think Steam overcharges me. It’s not like the game is cheaper somewhere else on PC either: https://store.epicgames.com/de/p/banishers-ghosts-of-new-eden-f9e3f2?lang=de (50 EUR)

needs a few seconds to run

Depends on what you’re compiling!

Just stop using YT altogether.

And use what? I’m not on YouTube for YouTube. I’m on YouTube for the content that is often unavailable elsewhere.

I see a lot of gentle replies. I wonder if they would have looked the same if the browser in question was Google Chrome. The issue is that you can’t win this game. They ask you one thing, then another, then another, until you either fully comply or stop cooperating, and they block you anyway. That’s a reputational hit for the company and its product, whose only competitive advantage was its reputation.

Wow, pay extra 30 EUR to play 2 weeks earlier and avoid spoilers. I might just as well pirate it.

If there are too many comments, it means you have to support them just like the code itself. Otherwise, like any other documentation, comments will quickly go out of sync.

Yep, Max finished the race 28 seconds ahead of Ricciardo in P8. He created that gap in 12 laps since the final SC. Haas could capitalize on rain and earn points, but winning the race? No way.

I’m not sure what to feel about this. I’m a huge fan of the series, but I’ll wait for real reviews from real players.

I was looking at weekly and monthly stats, as well as the amount of subscribers. Though I agree that the most recent data shows that !linux@programming.dev is probably more active. And this community fits programming.dev more. I’ll subscribe to both and see where it goes :s

Isn’t there more active !linux@lemmy.world already?

The wheel base is reduced by 5.5%, and the width is reduced by 5%. I couldn’t find info on the actual maximum length changes, but according to these two sources:

https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/articles/single-seaters/f1/why-formula-1-cars-have-grown-so-big/

https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/articles/single-seaters/f1/f1s-smaller-nimbler-raceable-2026-rules-announced-full-explainer/

Modern cars can be up to 5.6m length. Apparently this is not going to change much, so I wouldn’t put weight into words “shorter” and “thinner”. Yes, new cars are shorter and thinner. But is 5% enough?

I hope other measures will be more fruitful.

Yes, it’s tiring. A lot of people and communities on various platforms are cultivating negativity, focusing on bad things. Even a simple meme about a cat can produce a comment section dominated by replies about how dangerous cats are for wild animals. Okay? Can we have a laugh because the cat did something silly?

I read that our brains are more likely to react to negativity, as that was a defensive mechanism in the past. But today, the internet can mess up our stimulus very, very badly. I don’t even open most of these posts you’ve mentioned, I ignore them like white noise. You can’t constantly bathe in that information and be mentally fine.
