Continents are made up anyway. Some call it Eurasia.

A capitalist can refer to the owner and manager of economic capital, or a supporter of the economic system of capitalism.

You need to sign in to your Microsoft account - and if you don't want to do that there's a convoluted workaround. You need to untick all the tracking they enable by default. Opt-out of copilot and some other shit. It hasn't been one button and walk away in a long time.

I've installed quite a few linux distros and windows versions for my job, and windows 10+ has one of the worst user experiences. Of course this doesn't include arch or any other "build it yourself" distro.

I don't remember gore being very prominent in the game outside of the opening. Tbh it sounds like you haven't played much of the game, in which case your post doesn't belong in this discussion.

I used to recommend Unreal 4 for everyone, but they are already going for 6 without optimizing the 5.

Real time global illumination (Lumen) and runtime LOD generation (Nanite) can't be made much faster; it's not really about optimization, it's that these features are fundamentally slow. The problem is that Epic spent a shit-ton of R&D developing these, and they do save developers some time - at the expense of disk space and performance.

These features are enabled by default in UE5, devs aren't going out of their way to enable them. Epic lies about them being beneficial to performance, which is only true if your assets are shit. Nanite is especially bad because Unreal Engine doesn't have a different approach for automatic LODs; you either need to do it all yourself or use nanite.

Not to say that devs aren't to blame - they should know better - but they are just following Epic's recommendations and defaults.

Do you actually go to temperatures high enough to sanitize? 60C is still in the bacteria danger zone, and 90C is damaging to a lot of fabrics. My towels would fade under the high heat, and it takes so much energy to heat the water.

Even without the greater fool scam, it's basic physics that a some dedicated servers will be more efficient than having every computer in a distributed network process every transaction.

The second is the metric time system: A day is 86.4 kiloseconds!

Jokes aside the French did come up with Decimal Time (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_time), but it didn't catch on.

No, that's a Merkel tree. Been around since 1979.

Cryptographically immutable append only ledgers (aka merkel trees) have existed since at least 1979. A blockchain is different because it has distributed consensus. If your consensus algorithm is trust, then it's not a fucking blockchain.

Yes that's true, systems like FPTP and IRV (as used in australia) are single-winner and thus require a local representation system, but you could use ranked-choice in a proportional system.

Without FPTP, the district result doesn’t matter at all, since it is the total number of votes that matter, not a designated winner of a district.

That depends entirely on what FPTP is replaced with. Any system with local representitives can be gerrymandered to reduce the representation of certain groups, with the exception of MMP where you can still gerrymander but it doesn't affect representation. That includes ranked choice, approval voting, etc. That's not to say these aren't better, of course with better local representation the effectiveness of gerrymandering is reduced, but it is not eliminated. The only way to eliminate gerrymandering is with a proportional system.

Might be some upscaling or other stuff. I found this image in a 6 year old post and the font looks fine there: https://www.reddit.com/r/tumblr/comments/ce7lhd/shut_up_vegan/

That seems like its pretty close to us being abke to run linux on a newer phone

You can run Linux on current gen flagship arm SoCs. The framebuffer, gpu and cpu stuff mostly just works (with some support from hardware vendors). It's the rest of the device that's the problem: the phone part, the camera, sound, power management, etc.

Very strict. No sugar and no sugar derivatives. Zero carbs. Zero fiber. You must sustain yourself on pure fat and protein powder.

"now"? AI as a field of research originates from the 60s, playing games of checkers and solving algebraic problems using what we'd now call "basic algorithms".

May I introduce to you: https://github.com/drathier/stack-overflow-import

Surely you mean common refresh rates like 23.976Hz (NTSC), 25hz (PAL & ATSC), 50hz (PAL & ATSC), 59.95hz (NTSC), 100hz (PAL+) and 144hz, right? /s

There's more CO2 dissolved in the water than there can be at atmospheric pressure. The CO2 is constantly trying to escape, but in order to do so it needs a nucleation site that disturbs the water. When the drink is shaken, lots of little bubbles form, and stick to the inner wall of the drink. These bubbles are nucleation sites. Flicking the side of the drink makes them float up and pop.
