No particular reason but for that sort of thing I just do su -

I like to actually log in as root on a terminal to do admin stuff, never got into sudo really. Old habits, you know.

Un-modded Skyrim has health regen (even during combat) unless you turn on “survival mode” but overall it’s a much better game if you spend the first 30 hours installing mods. In particular the melee combat can be much improved with MCO and related things. Or just pick a wabbajack, I hear Tempus Maledictum is one that people like.

Oh, literally unplayable. That’s even better. I was imagining a “lesbian? y/n” toggle in the settings that did absolutely nothing.

approx $6.84USD

Huh. So definitely not worth it then. Just buy a space heater instead. When I did it a few years ago I got $500 out of it, but it cost me a $350 video card which died soon after.

Is it really down to TSMC being unable to keep up? It seems plausible but I didn’t notice anything in the video to support it. Are there other sources that point to it as the problem?

Edit — for circumstantial evidence I did find this: https://wccftech.com/tsmc-reaches-100-percent-utilization-5nm-3nm-supply/

Hey AMD, here’s an idea: Ramp up your manufacturing, make an RX 9050, MSRP $350, flood the market with them, win the GPU game.

Requires 3rd-Party Account: Ubisoft

Singleplayer gameplay requires an active Internet connection

I was about to buy an Assassin’s Creed game, until I paused to read the fine print.

That’s right “industry execs” — you just need to turn down the romance by 40% and the sex by 15%, add 50% more friendship and 25% more adventure, control for the desired level of political correctness, add just the right variety of behavioural feedback loops, and you’ll have a maximally profitable game.

Firefox (with good settings, or Librewolf) + uBlock Origin + Decentraleyes + NoScript (with default permissions removed) is probably > 80%.

Buying Civ VI at launch was one of my worse decisions. Glad to be sitting this one out at least for a year or two until the game is actually finished and we can see if it’s any good.

Since you’re already on btrfs it’s probably better to actually use the features it has to expand your existing filesystem to cover both drives.

But if you just want to mount it somewhere and not worry about figuring out anything complicated, what I did is mount my big new cheap disk at /home/bigdisk and then have symlinks pointing to it such as ~/Videos -> /home/bigdisk/Videos.

Today’s top news story: Imminent Death of Fediverse Predicted

It’s centralized, it doesn’t officially allow 3rd-party clients, it requires a phone number, and the desktop app kinda sucks. I use it anyway, but it could be better.

Personally I’d put a higher priority on stamping out that use of “porn”.

Hello Internet commenters. Please remember that there’s no rule that says you need to tell us all your gut reaction to this if you know absolutely nothing about the situation.

GNU Taler is not your enemy. It may not solve every problem you’d like it to, but its adoption by the masses would be a vast improvement in privacy compared to the current state of commerce in every country where it has the slightest chance of happening any time soon.

Rule 1: Crushing people with tanks is fine so long as it’s our side doing it.

Literal fucking tankies. I wonder if they will ever come to their senses. Oh well, it’s not as if there aren’t Nazi instances somewhere on fedi as well.

A quick look at the documentation seems to indicate that they have not removed or officially deprecated the feature, only made it more complicated to configure it.

will finally ship with a DEB package for Debian-based distributions

That’s good news for the more specifically Ubuntu-based distributions and their users. I trust that Debian will continue to build its own packages.
