  • sorrybookbroke , to KDE in How fast is Plasma on old hardware?
    @sorrybookbroke@sh.itjust.works avatar

    I've had bad experiances. Started the pc on mint with cinimon, but that had some issues so I installed xfce and plasma to see if another environment may work. Xfce worked like a dream but plasma was quite laggy.

    I'd say plasma has similar or possibly mildly better performance than win10. Any time I put it on older hardware it seems to bog it down quite a bit

    Mostly same here, save for legit indie companies. I'm still going to buy haunted chocolater, silksong, and arcane (by randy) when they come out. Maybe hades 2 as well but I'll have to look into the question of "are they indie?" beforehand. Alot of people claimed that helldivers was indie when I'd argue it really isn't

    Amd can be quite hard to work with as a small vendor and even though they have a current product with them it takes alot of time, and money to get a new one. If they can

    The excuse, which I believe, is that AMD is relatively small and can only do buisness with so many people Whereas nvidia is massive, and multiple smaller companies along with the main one will be in a much better place to supply GPUs.

    Completely agree though, I would much prefer an all amd option.

    @sorrybookbroke@sh.itjust.works avatar

    Thank you for this! I've been looking quite a while for a music player that can sort by date modified (or created) and this can pretty easily do it while looking nice too.

    Massive appreciation to you for showing it to me

    sorrybookbroke , to KDE in Do you also configure the feedback to send everything?
    @sorrybookbroke@sh.itjust.works avatar

    The issue is that this data can be used to fingerprint or de-anonomize users. Even if it's just a big list of statistics, knowing how likely or unlikely a system change, setting change, version, etc. is can help greatly with a person looking to pin down users. They'll know how likely a person with a specific pattern is the same person.

    I'm glad it's not distributed. If it was, I'd slide it all the way back to 0. Good intentions from the collectors doesn't stop bad intentions of consumers

    Through some further exploration I've also been able to find this which seems relevent:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neon_Genesis_Evangelion

    Here's some points the source states:
    In 2015, 15 years after a global cataclysm called the Second Impact, teenager Shinji Ikari is summoned to the futuristic city of Tokyo-3 by his estranged father Gendo Ikari, who is the director of the special paramilitary force Nerv. Shinji witnesses United Nations forces battling an Angel, one of a race of monstrous beings whose awakening was foretold in the Dead Sea Scrolls. Because of the Angels' near-impenetrable force-fields, Nerv's Evangelion bio-machines, which are synchronized to their pilots' nervous systems and possess their own force-fields, are the only weapons capable of fighting the Angels. Nerv officer Misato Katsuragi escorts Shinji into the Nerv complex beneath Tokyo-3, where Gendo pressures him into piloting Evangelion Unit-01 against the Angel. Without training, Shinji is quickly overwhelmed, causing the Evangelion to go berserk and savagely kill the Angel on its own.

    Following hospitalization, Shinji moves in with Misato and settles into life in Tokyo-3. In his second battle, Shinji defeats an Angel but runs away afterward, distraught. Misato confronts Shinji, and he decides to remain a pilot. Shinji and Nerv's crew must defeat the remaining fourteen Angels to prevent the Third Impact, a global cataclysm that would destroy the world. Evangelion Unit-00 is repaired shortly afterward, and Shinji tries to befriend its pilot Rei Ayanami, a mysterious and socially isolated teenage girl. With Rei's help, Shinji defeats another Angel. They are joined by Evangelion Unit-02's pilot, the multitalented but insufferable teenager Asuka Langley Sōryu, who is German-Japanese-American. The three of them manage to defeat several Angels, and as Shinji adjusts to his new role as a pilot, he gradually becomes more confident and self-assured. Asuka moves in with Shinji, and they begin to develop confusing feelings for one another, kissing at her provocation.

    After being absorbed by an Angel, Shinji breaks free thanks to Eva-01 acting on its own. He is later forced to fight Evangelion Unit-03, who has become infected, and its pilot, his friend and classmate Toji Suzuhara, becomes incapacitated and permanently disabled. Asuka loses her self-confidence following a defeat and spirals into depression, which is worsened by her next fight against an Angel who attacks her mind. It forces her to relive her worst fears and childhood trauma, resulting in a mental breakdown. In the next battle, Rei sacrifices herself to self-destruct Unit-00 and save Shinji. Misato and Shinji visit the hospital, where they find Rei alive, but claiming she is "the third Rei". Misato forces the scientist Ritsuko Akagi to reveal the dark secrets of Nerv, the Evangelion boneyard, and the Dummy Plug system, which operates using clones of Rei, who was created using the DNA of Shinji's mother, Yui Ikari. This succession of events leaves Shinji emotionally scarred and alienated from the rest of the characters. Kaworu Nagisa replaces the catatonic Asuka as Unit-02's pilot and befriends Shinji, gaining his trust. He is revealed to be the final foretold Angel, Tabris, and fights Shinji, realizing that he must die to allow humanity to survive. He asks Shinji to kill him, and he hesitates but eventually kills Kaworu; an event that causes him to be overridden with guilt.

    After the final Angel is defeated, Gendo triggers the "Human Instrumentality Project", a forced evolution of humanity in which the souls of mankind are merged for benevolent purposes. He believes that if unified, humanity could overcome the loneliness and alienation that has eternally plagued them. Shinji's soul grapples with the reason for his existence and reaches an epiphany that he needs others to thrive and to accept himself by seeing a potential Shinji in another reality. This enables him to destroy the wall of negative emotions that torment him and unites with the others, who congratulate him.

    Shit, sorry, you're a different guy I think? Apologies for that the top comment was deleted.

    Still going to restate that removing trans people from the community wouldn't be identity politics, it'd be hatred

    You're wild man, complain about everybody bringing up identity politics when none were present ironically being the one you complained about.

    I haven't been following this story personally, but if they had decided to "push back on representation for trans people" that is a bad thing. Not certain what that means, but the only way to do that would be lower the amount of trans users and contributors. Forcing out trans people is a bad thing, that's not identity politics, that's hatred

    Half the article, or more, is a description of evengalian plot. That's some wild shit man, none of that was in any way relevent. Imma use this tactic myself.

    "I'm sorry, but I am breaking up with you. You do deserve an explination as to why though but to properly convey my emotions first I'll have to describe the entire through plot of blues clues"

    "Why identity politics bro?"

    Says the first guy to bring up identity politics in the thread.

    The article didn't say shit about gender you weirdo. You have hallucinated this.

    sorrybookbroke , (edited ) to RPGMemes in I absolutely love this idea
    @sorrybookbroke@sh.itjust.works avatar

    If I had a 3d printer making negatives of the baddies a before casting them in chocolate, cake, or marshmallow would be wild.

    On a budget like I am I'm certain I could do something with cookies to make some or carve a marshmellow down, slime out of jello, etc. I've done 3d trees, but could also make my mini peanut butter cookies and use icing to paint the monster to be a token.

    Cheese would be a good medium as well however. Fuck man, I could do a three course dnd session. Charcuterie shiskabandits? Cheese pants, meat shirt, and a grape head all held with a toothpick?

    This would be fantastic for a kid, or very kid like adults. Ant on a log direwolf? Strands of twisted liqurice as tentacles for a rope or an abolyth? More ideas are welcome

    God dahm I kinda want to do that next time I run assault on gumdrop mountain. I don't know if any of the PCs would actually eat during that specific campaign though lol

    This led to mass starvation as the workers no longer could feed themselves and no industry replaced the lost work. The textiles produced were of lower quality too, and sold for less which harmed the local economy leading to a rise in food prices along with the lower wages. Since the vast majority of arable land was used for cotton too no local food could lower the prices. Many people died as the luddites predicted.

    There was mass starvation

    They were right. This is not "anti-automation" this is against lower wages, mass unemployment, and an economic decrease. The automation was the cause of this, yes, but the concept of automation was not the issue. The issue was it's use here.

    If the workers were provided an alternative job, if there was some plan to avoid starvation, and if the textiles were of a reasonable quality then there would be no issue.

    History proved the luddites correct
