I truly feel sorry for everyone affected but it's also important to draw firm conclusions from this happening to oneself.

I've had this happen to me once, bought myself an Album on Amazon Music, back then the Amazon Music App was rather unusable so I just downloaded the MP3, years later I wanted to redownload some of the "worse" songs from this album I had deleted/lost over the years. Gone, the entire thing gone. Still there in my purchase history, unavailable anywhere else. Best part: the album itself was still on Amazon so I could have bought it again.

I drew my conclusion: Never buy with DRM. Always download the files, even if I don't need them.

The park design should have accounted for the crosswalk on the top intersection from the get go or, alternatively, once the people made their desire for a path there obvious. The park isn't some sentient thing with its own opinion, it got made by people with 2 main functions: enhancing the environment and serving as a foot path. It is obviously failing at the second until the designers finally relented and put a proper path down to the crosswalk.

Note: you will always get people not using the path but when it's enough people to form a permanent trail then the park design obviously did not account for a rather popular destination and should be revised.

Already signed and everyone I know who can also already did, really hope we can get this across the finish line.

It is deeply ironic just how entrenched in corporate BS this guy is while naming his channel Priatesoftware. I would laugh if it wasn't so harmful to this endeavor.

I wouldn't say demand is high I would say demand is glitched and infinite. The AI bubble has gotten to such a scale where all the existing parts are already sold but even further they have sold parts that don't even exist yet for datacenters which haven't even started construction yet in order to satisfy a projected demand curve the sales people dreamed up in order to somehow promise a slight profitability of this entire mess.

What surprises me is that when windows is faster the difference isn't that significant but that when Linux is faster it's by a lot.
For example 59.1 vs 59.8 FPS in Borderlands isn't that significant of a difference but 52.4 vs 44.6 FPS in Cyberpunk certainly is.

Really makes you wonder just how badly Microsoft fucked up Windows for things to end up like this.

Sony pulled Linux from the PS3.

which was there so Sony could sell their console with a lower tax rate in some countries because it qualified as a "Personal Computer" due to Linux being available, whereas without they would have needed to sell it as "Entertainment Media"

He is and I distinctly remember one clip where he bragged that his game was piracy proof because the save system uses steam achievements. Conveniently ignoring the fully working steam backend emulators out there used to run every game whose sole DRM is the Steam Store.

Genießen ist bei mir nur bis 27°, danach beginnt der Rückzug in den Keller

And just to be sure make a digital copy of those so you have at least 2 versions available should either version degrade.

In some jurisdiction bypassing the DRM for strictly personal use is even legal, in those where it's not: if you don't share your private copy can anyone even prove you bypassed it?

For this to be a good thing the shareholders would need to agree to a technical CEO rather than a marketing one and that comes with the wee lil' issue of raining on their AI parade. If Tim Cook goes his replacement will be even worse.

Python, uh, has types tho? Python just doesn't engage in the same brainless type coercion that JS does, instead type coercion is much more limited and sensible.

Realistically lt will lead to enterprises using AMD instead, Windows just simply isn't even an option for many enterprise uses (mainly server applications)

Apparently that's already in the backend since december, they're just getting their infrastructure up to snuff before they enable it

I am so jealous, wish we had that weather here

I can't tell whether shitpost or actual leak and that just makes it so much better

Bildung, Soziales und Infrastruktur

du meinst Rente, Steuersenkungen für Reiche und Korruption? SInd wir mal ehrlich, selbst wenn die gesamte Schwarzarbeit auf einmal in Steuerzahlende konvertiert würde, dass Geld würde größtenteils nicht da landen, wo es muss.

Das Problem ist ja auch nichtmal, dass die Leute gar nichts abgeben wollen, aber wenn halt der Handwerker ankommt und sagt "Unter der Hand mach ich's für die Hälfte" und da am Ende beim Handwerker trotzdem noch bedeutend mehr Geld über bleibt, muss man sich halt nicht wundern.

Im Handwerk ist das so ein großes Phänomen weil Privatleute mit Kleinunternehmen interagieren und die haben beide nicht die Luft die teilweise absurd hohen Abgaben mal eben wegzustecken, den Kunden steht das Wasser finanziell nicht selten bis zum Hals und die Handwerker können aus selbigem Grund keinen ihrer Arbeit gerechten Stundenlohn erwirtschaften, also einigen sich beide Seiten darauf das ganze über weglass der Steuern preislich attraktiver zu gestalten.

Man kann in einem Land halt nicht Jahrzehntelang die Gehälter stagnieren lassen und dann überrascht sein, wenn die Leute anfangen an der Steuer vorbei zu Leben um dann doch irgendwie mehr raus zu bekommen.

Isn't part/most of this that Europe simply exported the carbon-intensive stuff abroad?

Partially true however it is also worth pointing out that industry in the EU produces significantly fewer emissions than the same industries outside the EU. The costs that come with that are largely why industry is outsourcing elsewhere, there is no coordinated effort by some shadow council to export the carbon-intensive industries abroad, just not fully thought out economic policy (producing in the EU causes costs for emissions, importing doesn't/is easier to fudge, the incentive created by this imbalance is easy to see).

Do note that Root seems to be VC funded just like discord so that might just be the same thing happening later down the line.

Stoat isn't federated so they also have the issue of running costs but they do seem to have that figured out already (currently donation funded, apparently some user friendly plans on how to deal with costs should they exceed the incoming donation)

Sounds nice, ideally they'd just support drop in Wireguard configurations so you can use the VPN of your choice rather than being forced to use whatever Mozilla is offering.
