This was my experience just setting it up as dualboot and not doing super much with it. Sure I failed installing it a few times but I came out with more understanding of file systems, and in the end the wiki told me everything I needed to know.

I wish. The conclusions drawn from it are beyond questionable, but if you give people the opporturnity to do something that is convenient for them and fucks over others, far too many will do it. You need rules preventing that. The custom not allowing people to put more cows is that rule keeping things intact.
Tragedy of the commons being a real thing is the perfect illustration of why unrestrained capitalism is terrible. If hoarding wealth isn’t considered acceptable, the social pressure will prevent it from occuring. Anyone breaking the rules will suffer actual consequences.
Yes, but it’s not a factor at for example lan tournaments. It’s just a compounding number anyway. Ping can easily be sub 20 ms even online, then the up to 12ms (average 6ms) difference between 60 and 240hz is more significant than further ping reduction.
I think there’s a lot of placebo involved, but it does make a difference in games with direct competition. If 2 people in CS headshot each other, even being 1ms faster can flip the outcome in some cases. I can definitely see why you’d just want as fast as possible.
Personally I just like my colleagues so it’s fun to be around them for the most part, and there are better lunch options around the office in my case (plus I’d never bother going somewhere when I’m home anyway). It being easier to just quickly ask a question is nice too. Also gets me actually out of the house and cycling for ~40 minutes a day. I also get way more done at work because working at the same pc I spend 90% of my free time at is not great at motivating my brain to do work.
Still, if I didn’t have the option to just stay home when I don’t feel like going to the office/am waiting for a package or something, I’d find that very annoying.
Shorting, crypto trading, options are all gambling. Long term investments are usually not.
One is hoping that the price will go a certain way in the short term. The other is giving a company money so they hopefully turn it into more money. that is the difference, nothing to do with casinos.
It’s an issue of political will, because it’s perfectly possible to keep cycling possible even in those conditions, but yea as long as that isn’t there you can’t always.
Too many is still better than too few, and it’s not close. Useless comments make parsing a bit harder. Missing comments can mean hours of research.
We only went up to ten in germany, so yea probably.
Also my god those things are pointless.
The whole thing is phrased the way I phrase acquisition requests at work, everything is true but it’s very much written in a way that exaggerates the severity. No major reasons not to add it since it should be quite simple, but that phrasing is bound to tick people off a little. (Edit bc i just remembered this is about doxxing: no of fucking course that’s not even remotely an appropriate response and I see 0 justification for it, and I feel like it probably wouldve happened even with different phrasing, this isn’t meant to be victim blaming)
Wouldn’t be hard to instead say “hey, i have an issue with the lack of a gender neutral pronoun option, it causes feelings of dysphoria for myself and many others which makes me not want to play the game, would be great if that could be added.” Or even just leave out the dramaticizing adjectives, that might do it on its own.
Hmm, I wonder if we could get an EU law that requires enabling testing of third party apps globally, as anything else is suppressing competition.
Usually something in the testing process, or perhaps the testing process itself is lacking. For medical applications it should be pretty rigorous as the consequences if something slips through can be very bad.
If this is a new feature, then every step of the process designed to make sure it works failed. Which those are precisely will depend on the project, it could mean that multiple devs and QA had a look and either missed it or didn’t think to test for it. Where I work the developer implementing a feature tests it, then 2 other developers review the code, one of them also tests it, then it goes to dedicated QA who will test it more in depth and also do regression tests (checking that existing functionality still works). The testing QA member also checks with another QA member about anything they may have missed in their test steps. But this can vary heavily, also depending on the general model of development cycle (agile or waterfall) etc - though I’m working on much less critical software, no ones going to get injured even if nothing works correctly.
If the bug was introduced through an update to this or another feature, their regression tests might be lacking.
It’s also possible (though imo extremely negligient for such an application) that they don’t have dedicated QA in the first place, and even don’t require their devs to test comprehensively in place of dedicated QA.
Or, they found the bug, but management didn’t want to allocate the resources to fix it.
Imo something like this slipping through shows negligience of some form, it’s impossible to guarantee bug-free software, but this is not some obscure, hard to reproduce error.
The worst is when they redirect you to some /nojs page or similar that doesn’t even have scripts from whatever source was required for it to run so I can’t just tell noscript to allow whatever seems relevant, I have to blanket allow scripts temporarily.
A few days ago at work i was very annoyed and confused at outlook suddenly opening links in edge. “We are opening links in edge so you can do everything in one window” or something. Wasn’t hard to disable (though it was more than one click which already feels like too much for something actively ignoring my settings) but shows how they really are trying everything they can to get you to use edge.
The way carbon offsets currently are made available to people are often a scam. The concept is not (though it would likely be not feasible to offset all carbon everyone produces, so the comic still works bc better than offsetting is not producing in the first place).
I can for example donate money to restore a local bog, and that will have a very real climate impact.
Depends… people might buy more food if they stay longer and there doesn’t need to be a designated driver so mkre people can buy the overpriced beer.
