PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•In the 33 months since Baldur's Gate 3 launched, it's hardly ever fallen out of the top 5 most-played games on Steam DeckEnglish
7·9 days agoMe and my brother pirated it, loved it, bought it. (Especially because the multiplayer works on pirated version and very simply so.)
Piracy increases sales.
Remember the PS1 demos? Had I been of working age back then, I’d have bought half of them merely because I loved the demos.

Houseplants@mander.xyz•My houseplants have small dead bugs around them, what are these? 🌿🐜English
1·1 month agoNeem oil spray and watering could help. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neem_oil
I know they’re sort of waxy, and I know I haven’t grown pineapples (or ananas as we say in the rest of languages), but I googled a bunch of photos to make sure what I was seeing is the hue slightly being pale.
Idk if I have a knack for that, I at least remember reading research that green-red deficient ppl, such as I, can sometimes perceive more shades of green and brown, but that’s beside the point as am going mostly from my home gardening experience.
I’ve grown weed and then basils and other herbs and cacti and whatnot and it all sort of applies even though not all plants need to be the same hue obviously. But the first sign of a plant being “hungry” is often — to me — anything green being a bit too pale.
But since this isn’t like massive deficiency anyhow, it’s alright. But I would perhaps consider doing mild fert solutions every second or even everytime you water, depending on how much it drinks (that’s a whole other thing which I can’t know from here).
You can buy both needed ferts from a supermarket. Just get one that’s “basic” and usually green bottles or smth, just basic plant food, they’re for the growth phases of most any plants. Then also look if you can find one for orchids/blooming, they’re sometimes purple. (I think you said Austria perhaps and I’m EU as well but idk if the colours are some national level thing.)
In the first one or maybe even two fertilisations I’d mix them half and half with half of a low-side of the recommended amount. So that together they equal about the normal amount but sort of mixed.
Going into details here but in plant food bottles you’ll see NPK numbers, standing for Nitrogen Phosphorus and Potassium (K is Kalium, how many other countries and Latin says potassium). And “growth” plant food will have a number something like 20-5-5 and bloom something like 5-15-10. Although there are balanced ones with like 10-10-10, you could use one of those for the first one or two times and then when the pineapple gets bigger (how long does it take to grow idk) start putting more a bloom type, high in phosphorus, because the plant is then making the fruit and that requires phosphorus and and that point it’s just using thw energy in the leaves, not growing more, for which it would need the nitrogen.
Just take care not to overdo it. Which is easier said than done I guess. But I think looking into and using them a bit would definitely help your future harvest a bit.
I haven’t grown pineapple, but the leaves look a bit pale green to me. Are you giving enough fertiliser?
Also, flowering plants usually take a different sort of fertiliser which is higher in phosphorus but lower in nitrogen whereas leaves being a bit pale and not a darker green is usually an indication of lower nitrogen levels.
But you know, I haven’t grown pineapple. But quite a few other things and it seems to work on most plants that way what with chlorophyll and whatnot.
Edit I just mean to say it looks like its definitely getting good sun, and maybe this grows a bit faster than your usual houseplant and perhaps you’re more used to fertilising them, as they don’t often really require much, if any. But a plant making fruit really might call for some, especially indoors.
I mean the video is from before 2016 (as that’s when Stephen left QI) and in the part where they’re saying that, they’re quoting something which was already a quote, and it begins with “many years ago…”
Yeah unfortunately for you I think the post is bullshit. People die on planes all the time. I mean, enough for airlines to have protocols for it.
They used to just put people in first class seats with shades and a newspaper but apparently that was “insensitive”.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Motorized aim assist system uses a moving mousepad for laser-accurate headshots — a cannibalized GRBL drawing system and computer vision software deliver perfect shotsEnglish
74·4 months agoPff never existed bro. Youre dreaming.
Back in like 2000 aimbotters were more plentiful than now. Some all-seeing eye privately servers lol
Youre idealising history you never experienced

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•RAM and SSD prices are still climbing—here’s our best advice for PC buildersEnglish
3·5 months agoRich, meh. But if you sell em before the bubble bursts, you’ll make some profit at least.
I hope people realise actual war isn’t fun shenanigans like this.
The army is fun shenanigans, yeah, on occasion. In movies/memes that’s all you’ll see. Whereas the routine is boring af.
And real war is scary and heartbreaking because of how fucked up it is to have your friends explode to pieces or bleed out in your arms.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•The Outer Worlds with ray tracing can't hit 60FPS at paltry 540p resolution with an RTX 5090 and 9800X3D - ray tracing 'performance' mirrors Borderlands 4 fiascoEnglish
4·6 months agoI mean, it’s not necessary, but neither are HD resolutions or high framerates.
It has seemed every beautiful in some things.
It’s not necessary, but like, lots of things aren’t. The tech in itself isn’t horrible, it’s just horrible usecases which make it bad. Even if most usecases are horrible. Some aren’t.
Edit for instance we have much the same power computers with my brother, aside from me having an outdated GPU. Last year when we played HP Legacy for a bit, I would say that his was far prettier when utilising Ray tracing, and the whole game is a sort of feast of aesthetics, so. Although his rig wasn’t potent enough to have great framerates, so playing was still better for him as well without Ray tracing. But the scenery without much action still had good framerares so we saw rhe difference. Idk perhaps it will never be good but
You’ll still need to get around gait recognition.
And if one quantifies her exposure to yellow, I think having one star and looking at it while writing that explanation is more exposure than the two seconds it would take just to click five.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•[Old article from 2017] The EU Suppressed a 300-Page Study That Found Piracy Doesn’t Harm SalesEnglish
4·10 months agoThere’s a whole bunch of shows I may or may not have illegally downloaded, which then were cancelled due to lack of interest or something. If I could’ve made a direct donation to influence that, I’d have happily contributed like 100€ for the shows to continue.

Funny@sh.itjust.works•In Finland, they advertise the largest container of mayonnaise as "American Size"
1·10 months agoGot to clean your containers and not just top them up, lol





I would not have bought it, no. I don’t really buy games.
Also it was like 50-60 euros, that’s a dent in my monthly drinking budget man, I can’t take that. It’s like one nice or two semi-nice or three okay bottles of rum.
It’s you who’s “coping” actually.
The EU commissioned a study on piracy affecting sales some years back. When it came back as “no negative effect, perhaps even a positive one”, the EU lowkey tried suppressing the study.

There’s the actual study.
And here’s the news about the suppression.
