Ende der Zeitarbeit - was heißt das für die Grillsaison?

Was für ein bescheuerter take... kann auch nur aus Deutschland kommen. Dann ist das Schweinenackensteak halt 1-2€ teurer. Ja und. Ist immer noch 5€ billiger als es sein müsste wenn für Arbeiter, Natur und vor allem die Tiere faire Bedingungen herschen würden.

Iss halt ne Scheibe Brot zu deinem Fleisch. Oder ... Gott bewahre ... grill eine Aubergine und ein Erbsen-Protein Schnitzel...

its a lot more readable if you replace the : with any other function name

fork() {
     fork | fork &
};
fork

define a funktion called fork, which calls itself twice (call once, pipe ( "|" ) the result to the same function again which is run in a new thread in the background ( "&" )). Then call the newly defined function. The : is used to make it look more like emoji.

Then vs Now

Reply in thread

No idea why they attached the FPS directly to the hardware.

It's the most trivial and straight forward thing to do. The game is a simple loop of:

  • get user input (can be nothing)
  • calculate new game state based on old state and input
  • draw new game state.

The speed of the game is now 100% dependant on the speed of computation. NOT attaching fps to hardware is the hard thing, as you need to detach the game state loop and the drawing loop and then synchronize them. Doing that yourself is extremely complicated. Today developers don't even need to think about that because the whole drawing loop is abstracted away by things like directX/Vulcan and the game engine. But without those tools, fps tied to CPU speed is basically the default.

Put a ring on it?

Exactly. Bilbo had the ring for 50+ years and he never used it to get more money fame or power. Because neither interested him. He used it in the end to disappear because he wanted his peace and solitude.

Pathfinder vs linux

have done something that broke everything

When talking about dnd5e -> pf2e, I STRONGLY disagree. Pf2e is a much, much more stable and balanced system than DND and waaaay harder to break.

With pf1e I agree. That system has so many busted builds.

On the other hand the analogy is very good, as DND/windows is only considered to be "stable" and "intuitive" because it is the "Default" and usually the first thing people get in contact with. From an objective, unbiased perspective they can be very unintuitive.

... And yes I play pf2e and use Linux how could you tell.

Ampel wirbt für "Deutschlandticket Fahrrad"

Reply in thread

Schlechtere Angebote sind natürlich ein Weg ein Verhalten zu unterdrücken um damit ein Problem "zu lösen". Aber dann fahren die Leute halt mit dem Auto oder versauern in der Stadt. Also ist das problem nur verschoben. Stattdessen besserer service wäre viel zielführender. Fahrradmitnahme fördern, Kapazität erhöhen (z.b. ein Fahrrad Wagon zu Stoßzeiten, etc). Reservierung für Fahrräder erzwingen kann sinnvoll sein, aber nur solange die allgemeine Kapazität ausreicht (und durch die Reservierungen etwas die Spitzenlast verteilt wird).

AI or DEI?

Reply in thread

Repeat after me:

"Current AI is not a knowledge tool. It MUST NOT be used to get information about any topic!"

If your child is learning Scottish history from AI, you failed as a teacher/parent. This isn't even about bias, just about what an AI model is. It's not even supposed to be correct, that's not what it is for. It is for appearing as correct as the things it has been trained on. And as long as there are two opinions in the training data, the AI will gladly make up a third.

The cells of your body are part of you. They share the same DNA and descend from the same cell (the fertilized egg) and depend on each other to stay alive. However there are more gut bacteria inside of you than there are cells of yourself (they are a lot smaller than human cells). And they are not related to you. So you could reincarnate as a gut bacteria of somebody else

Why did distro name carry over into label name of my ssd?

A drive label is just a string that can be set by any privileged process. Seems like this installation of the new distro didn't do that. Or you skipped a step in the install where you could have chosen the drive label.

If it is a bug in the installer or if you missed it, I can't tell.

But you can just change it in gparted or something else.

They sometimes buy keys using stolen credit cards. When the fraud is found out, the banks will request the money from the developer. They in turn often don't have a way to lock the fraudulent key, so it remains valid.

The costs for the initial bank transfer, plus the time invested in returning the money to the credit card holder are payed by the developer.

The key reseller has a 100% profit margin, the customer has a valid and cheap game key, and the developer actually lost time and money.
