Slightly unrelated but the quality of the screen capture is crisp wtf

Not only that, live service titles are absolutely tone deaf when it comes to respecting the effort of their players.

It doesn't stop Steve from being right with his statement, though, but his understanding of what a live service game's monetization model should be has shown to be two or three parallel universes ahead of what the "triple A" projects usually do.

Hell, paying real money can only skip you through the first dozens of hours of the tutorial. After that, paying effectively only allows you to get cosmetic options.

Hi everyone,

I've been checking this forum but I have not managed to find duplicates (I'm using Summit for Lemmy). If that's the case I'll remove this post.

I'm about to start a PhD. I've been told I will be required to partake in publications and other shenanigans. I am not against it, but I'm very concerned about having my full name flying around the internet, as I've always been hesitant of sharing any of that information (real name, pictures, etc).

Ultimately, I only care for potential employers to know that it's actually me the one who has written this or that, which I would happily disclose in private.

What's the usual stance in this situation?

As a non-American, I will never not read POTUS as "piece of the utmost shit"

You see, the problem is that you're genuinely concerned by virtual points

Have you ever seen the man in the high castle? Well, we're definitely not in the worst timeline, but missing out on pals like Bernie shows that we're definitely not in the best either...

If thars the case, it's likely that someone knows that a certain someone has placed something very much near the boundaries of a certain country. In such case, it's perfectly justified, as it was back in the day.

Just took a look at the reddit comments on a similar piece of news. It's a cesspool of just-created accounts up voting each other on pro-Israel comments.

It's a pity some influentiable people won't be able to immediately notice that they are bots.

This is just a long advertisement

Lately, I found out that Application Launcher also features all the functionality I use from KRunner.

In my particular experience, Application Launcher is snappier at first launch and also returns results rather quickly. For me, this begs an obvious question.

What's the use case for using KRunner over the Application Launcher?

So far I've noticed that pressing Enter on the Calculator results makes the entry be copied on KRunner, but this does not happen for the Application Launcher. I'm certain there must be something else to it, otherwise people would not be using it (even I found myself using it from time to time, but could not understand why).

Please, remember to vote on the European elections! We do need the EU to keep taking actions like this

[-] Brickardo@feddit.nl 49 points 5 months ago

How come European countries still, after centuries, can't face that lands well outside their reach have a right to go their own way?

If you dare mention Catalunya/Ceuta/Melilla, or probably the worst case, the Canary islands, you'll get the weirdest look from any Spaniard as well. Even centuries after losing territories in America, they still can't wrap their minds around a concept as simple as this.

Why, of all possible languages, would you suggest this for Javascript where semicolons are not mandatory

[-] Brickardo@feddit.nl 40 points 5 months ago

Unfathomably based

You can find and download the project from the KDE Store and from https://store.kde.org/p/1804745/

Hey guys,

Just wanted to tell you that Day/Night Switcher has been finally ported to Plasma 6. I couldn't have done this with the interest by the community on the project's continuation. Anyway, let us all enjoy it.

I am only posting this in the hopes that old users who moved to Plasma 6 may catch up on the news.

See you around, kids!
