Think about why you joined Lemmy. Reddit has been getting greedier and greedier, so you left to a place where the grass is greener. The same thing is true with Windows and Linux (and Linux is also much more big and mature than Lemmy). It attracts the same kind of people.
100 times this.
I think I have a solid grasp of C++ and its manual memory management, but give me a build error and I'll have zero clue how to fix it.
The interesting thing is that although I've almost never spent money on a gacha system and haven't played much gacha systems recently, my brain subconsciously craved for more but in a safer way.
That's why I created the JavaScript weighted playlist for myself: A random selection of songs from my music library where some songs play (much) more than others. Getting a super rare song is akin to getting a top tier drop. Additionally, the playback rate is randomized to a normal distribution, giving the tiny chance that a rare song can play with a wild playback rate. And if that wasn't enough, some Geometry Dash related songs can randomly skip to the next song, simulating watching someone try to beat some demon level.
I've created a skinner box for my brain that sometimes causes me to waste hours just clicking on the "next song" button to see what shows up next. My wallet was not harmed in the process (although it might soon be because I want it to work on a portable device, but that money would go to some niche open source hardware thing rather than a greedy gacha publisher).
How does the environmental impact of LNG compare to CNG?
I'm surprised this wasn't a thing before. This is a common sense change.
If the excess energy cannot be stored, it should be used for something energy intensive like desalination or carbon capture.
Not even Nazi Germany or Stalin's Soviet Union had this arbitrary and stupid of a music ban.
This is rage inducing.
Imagine if your car dealer was allowed to confiscate your car on a dubious claim such as "it doesn't meet the latest emissions standards," but not even telling you that.
Google needs to be fined twice the value of the apps that it stole from it's paying customers.
Remember, the reason I ditched Reddit wasn't the ads per se, it was the constant data selling, and the official app just getting worse and worse with unwanted "features" pushed on everyone. They kept getting greedier and greedier so when they disabled 3rd party apps I ditched Reddit.
I'm not sure if this is the best community to post in, but I just bought a used computer and slotted in an RX480 as the GPU. I installed KDE Neon 5.27 on it, and it worked flawlessly for 2 days.
Then, even though it was working earlier today, it slept and then would not wake up. So I turned off the power and turned it back on again, and was greeted with this error screen:
The only prior error message I'd gotten from the system was when I tried to install wine for one application, it told me some packages weren't up to date, without a way to fix it. I can enter the BIOS just fine.
What is going on? How do I fix this?

Copyright is far too long and should only last at most 20 years.
Actually, George Washington would agree with me if he was still alive. He and the other founding fathers created the notion of copyright, which was to last 14 years. Then big corporations changed the laws in their favor.
Could I see the numbers?
