Statistically if you're born, at some point you will die. Being born is deadly.

Jeeze both people come across as petty idiots. Lots of passive aggressive nonsense, and both sides want to have the last word.

Also it drives me up the wall when 2 people argue and one person tells the other to "calm down". And in this case it's "CALM DONW" and "CALM YOURSELF" between line by line quotes. So fucking childish.

I wish Blackbeard all the best on Bluesky; I think they will be disappointed. Human nature is human nature; I've been around long enough to see the cylical nature of social media. A new thing comes along, everyone joins, there is a love-in, and a "consensus" is built around how this time it's be great and what is and isn't allowed. Then things grow and a consensus that holds with 10 people breaks down with 100 or 1000, and people blame the new people for the change.

And mods at each others throats is just the nature of the beast. This has played out over and over on the internet - Usenet through to X, Reddit, etc, and the fediverse will experience the same. It's just human nature.

Your html looks wrong to me in your second example.

The type should be closed with " not continued with ; Codecs should also use" "

I don't think the Codecs bit is needed though. Having the Type correct should be enough.

<video controls preload="none"> <source src="FooBar.mp4" type="video/webm"> </video>

Edit: Also presumably your files are definitely AV1? Double check that. I think you can also drag and drop video into Firefox to see if they will play.

Edit2: Also on searching I've seen someone say you may need to use the video tag itself for mkv:

<video controls preload="none" src="FooBar.mkv"> </video>

It's one of the solutions lower down on this stack post, but you'd need to test that. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21192713/how-to-playback-mkv-video-in-web-browser

As a side, it's very frustrating to see how many people wrote code on that page that just works on Chrome. So much for Web standards!

Nah Todd. The base game was boring, and the expansion sounds mediocre. The buggies aren't the problem.

They should play The Witcher 3 or Cyberpunk 2077 or Baldurs Gate 3 - they all show what can be done with RPGs now.

Bethesda haven't evolved enough since Skyrim. Starfield would probably have been seen as a great game 10 years ago. But the best description I've seen is that's its as wide as an ocean but as deep as a puddle.

An expansion on one world doesn't address the fundamental problem with the game. I don't see this game having a No Man's Sky ark. Please move on to Elder Scrolls 6 - it's been 13 years already and it seems Betheasa have a lot to learn from the competition.

Inspired me to donate too.

Donated €50 but misread the adopt an app thing so didn't write a comment. Shame, but still happy to support KDE!

I use it on my OpenSuSE and Nobara devices, as my daily driver. I love Plasma, and Kate, Dolphin, Okular, Ark, Gwenview, KDE Connect, Spectacle, and Konsole in particular. Also love KDE's Marble as a Google Earth replacement.

Sony bought the studio, Sony published this, and so Sony effectively greenlit it. Sony corporate then? This was not an independent game developed for PS5, this was in house.

"Time to switch to uBlock Lite or another ad blocker"

No. Time to switch to Firefox or derivative such as Librewolf.

This is a fluff piece written by someone in a rich bubble.

The 2 year old and 4 year old have no concept of money, the 4 year old did not "do most of the work" in a lemonade stand, and they do not have "their own money" to spend. Picking up after yourself and putting dishes in the sink are not chores, and kids this age aren't taking out the trash - of course they enjoy it when mummy does it and makes a big deal of how grown up the kids are for helping, and probably rewards then for it.

None of the ideas are innovative or relevant to most parents, and particularly not with a kids that age. This is just one rich bored parent with young kids sharing their "experiences". Pretty out of touch with reality.

This is badly written and ignorant article. Fat32 supports up to 16Tb partition size (depending on cluster size - 2Tb -16Tb).

Its microsoft's windows tools that arbitrarily only allow users to create 32Gb partitions, and it is this that is being changed. This is not a change to Fat32, this is a change to windows. 3rd party tools on Windows and other systems like Linux have long offered more options for partition size.

That its taken to 2024 for Microsoft to fix the command line tool (and still not fix the GUI tools) is ridiculous.

No one seems to have actually read the article, just the headline. This is the ultimate click bait title - kudos to the headline writer in 1939.

The tl/dr: It's saying Hitler's authoritarian actions were galvanising other countries to step up and protect democracy after the failures after WW1.

In the final paragraph:

It is one of the most interesting phenomena of Hitler's political activity that it has resulted in bringing about so soon such an overwhelming and unprecedented manifestation of defensive solidarity amongst the democratic peoples.

And the final line of the article:

It would be the height of paradox if Hitler, of all persons, were destined by his statesmanship finally "to make the world safe for Democracy."

The article is surprisingly prescient.

Ironic that Libertarians are banning things in their own subreddit.

DRM-free doesn't mean piracy. GOGs whole business model is built around selling games DRM free. I don't pirate but I do use GOG where possible as I hate DRM - it punishes and inconveniences legitimate users for piracy and doesn't even solve the problem. DRM is just an expensive waste of money for everyone involved.
