Producing multiple pigments to absorb more colours is very expensive, and the chemical reactions only take a certain amount of energy, anything beyond is converted into heat (which is bad for water retention).

So freedom of speech doesn’t exist anywhere? Literally every place has some restrictions.

And what would be the advantage? It wouldn’t be routable through legacy systems, and you’d run out of addresses in a couple of years again.

Having said that, it’s true that you actually can run some windows software through Wine but it’s a hack and it’s not going to work as well as it would on the OS it was designed for.

Most Steam games built for Windows run perfectly fine under Linux, many even better than on Windows. 10 years ago you’d have been correct, but the landscape has changed drastically.

Just as a warning, the macvlan stuff isn’t well documented and seems to have hard limits. I worked with it a couple of years ago and had to eventually read a lot of Docker code to figure some stuff out, and the host was only able to successfully set up 4 macvlan networks at a time - the fifth (and any following ones) were never reachable, even though I used the same scripts as for all other ones.

Things might have improved in the meantime.

Awesome, thank you!

Thank you for the validation, sometimes I feel like I’m going crazy with how often these things are repeated.

But those lectures do sound interesting - would you mind linking them when you have the time?

I don’t understand the tendency to attribute harmful behaviours of the rich and powerful to these strange, irrational reasons. No, UK leaders didn’t spend millions upon millions on propaganda because they have a fragile identity. They did it because they’ll make money off of it, and will be able to move the legislation towards their own goals.

It’s the same when people say Putin invaded Ukraine because he wants to restore the glory of the Soviet Union. No, he doesn’t care about any of that, he cares about staying in power and becoming more powerful. One of the best ways to do so is to invade other countries, as long as you don’t lose.

Why would the app size be the lowest? I could maybe see that for one single AppImage (though I don’t expect a significant difference), but as soon as you have two or more apps, sharing dependencies would make Flatpaks smaller than AppImages.

It depends. I really liked Mozillas initiative for local translation - much better for data privacy than remote services. But conversational/generative AI, no thank you.

Alternatively a depressingly realistic look at the consequences of war for non-participating children, couched in the veneer of an 80s Sci-Fi movie.

“YOUR PARENTS WILL NOT BE BACK”

I like “orphanize” - one of those things that shouldn’t be a word, but is!

Again: they stated they already played FNV before Fallout 4. You’re assuming they are confusing the game they are currently playing for one they played previously. Had OP not previously stated they’d already played FNV you’d have a point. As-is, you’re assuming they are too stupid to remember that the game they are playing right now is one they’ve already played previously and remember under a different name.

Sure, but there’s no reason to expect this when somebody explicitly mentions having previously played FNV. In doing so, you’re assuming OP to be a giant idiot.

Their whole post is talking about Fallout 4. What is more likely:

• they are talking about Fallout 4
• they are confusing Fallout 4 with Fallout New Vegas, a game they played previously and just said they’d try again after having played Fallout 4, having freshly installed and modded it, still not noticing that they already played through the game just before, while also confusing the online coverage for a totally different game

Please, just think for a moment.

Yes, their edit states they are now trying FNV again. Their post, containing the part you quoted, was neither part of the edit nor referencing FNV. Please, just read it again.

I’m pretty sure they’re playing Fallout 4, considering they explicitly said they tried FNV before…

What? I’ve never seen people say that, FNV is widely regarded as the best 3D Fallout game.

Don’t, atomic systems aren’t made for these kinds of changes.

I hate it, makes me look much less like a hacker while installing pre-built software from other people
