Who are all these people that have outlets next to where they usually use a phone and can use a 1m cable? All my cables are 2m because power sockets tend to be near the ground and phones and other items you charge tend to live on tables, desks and shelves. I don't understand why the USB spec considers 1m to be enough for anything.

This is a new low even for them and the baseline seems to have gone down in general lately.

Spain has a lot of these types of brain dead big brother policies. They are also big fans of chat control and seem to generally hate personal privacy.

Didn't realise souls are this calorie rich. 😳

Overseerr doesn't seem to be developed much anymore. Technically, these are for request management and for general search you would use prowlarr. In reality, if you don't want to play administrator for other users using Sonarr or radarr directly is easier and more reliable. You can tell that the whole stack was created by random disjointed developers and not a main UX designer because everything about it is very obtuse.

Are you sure he's not the successor to the throne after daddy is dead? It seems like many people would want him.

What does this have to do with America?

I do agree that the punishment should be severe and the perpetrator should lose acess to setting foot in the country again, but the problem with capital punishment is that you can be wrong about who is the perpetrator and kill innocents. It has happened many times and it's the reason why most civilized countries have eliminated it.

Again this is my opinion, everyone who cares about it already knows beyond a shadow of a doubt what this is, everyone else will continue to attempt confusion and deny it until theres no living resident in Gaza. I disagree that this particular action would change anything in terms of anyone's perception on the lies.

As I said in another comment there is politics at EU level and my argument is not against making waves, it's about taking the conservation to where it hurts more for the politicians that don't act. Making waves is very much a viable option since it's been a recent staple of some politicians.

I guess the root issue with this is that they don't act and if they lose their office to someone else those people also don't act, at least not in the interest of the people. So we would need someone who actually acts instead of just talks and promises and I feel like Greta would be one of those people.

There are parties and ministers and multiple institutions at european union level that drive conversations and can put a lot more pressure on the rest of the world than any single private individual.

 

Like for many other people, Valve single player experiences were one of my favorite of all time growing up. I considered both Half-Life and Portal to be masterpieces. It's true they've always been distracted with multiplayer games as well, things like Counter-Strike or Team Fortress and I did play them for sure, because I was a kid and I had all the time in the world.

These days I'm not a kid anymore and so when I game I tend to look more for memorable experiences instead of mindless grinding. Obviously I remember Valve as the experts in creating memorable experiences and I would like them to keep fully exploring those talents. They don't have that many employees, but they do have all the money in the world, no external pressure, no publisher to shit on them, it's just their developers and artists and a vision. But then they use all that and create this. An Overwatch looking moba shooter, really? I'm sure people will like and play it, but is this the results of the vision and ambition of a company like Valve?

It doesn't have to be Half-Life. I remember them saying that they dont want to do another one in the series because they are looking to innovate and make something truly original. My body is ready, give me anything. I can't imagine a moba shooter really fits with this description. I'm wondering how such a low hanging concept even becomes a real product at a company as ambitious as Valve.

I hear people are having fun with the new game and I'm happy for them. I am no longer the target audience and I wish them good luck with it. In the mean time let me hear your thoughts on it. Would you like to see another single player experience from Valve?

 

No worry about quality when you only get one topic to enjoy for the day.

 

I've been using sync for a while and occasionally I go looking in the settings for the feature to hide read posts automatically, instead of having to do it manually. Other Lemmy clients have this so I was convinced sync should probably have it as well, I just can't find it. Does this exist? If not, is it something that could be added? Thanks!
