One thing I love about usenet is that it's great if you're just looking for one episode, song, etc and don't want to download a whole collection.

The dams have been damaging the ecosystem in the area. https://www.latimes.com/environment/story/2024-03-24/klamath-river-restoration Probably not a big deal overall, but that area is big on environmentalism.

Salmon like to live in the ocean and lay their eggs in freshwater, so they make the journey upstream. Plus, there’s all the other animals that try to catch salmon on their way up the river.

Also the dams were built without consent of any of the Native American tribes in the area, so that was kind of a big deal.

Be mad at them all you want. But being mad at them doesn't change anything.

Edit: Sorry. I didn't mean for that to come out snippy. My point is there's nothing wrong with being mad. It's the action that gets results.

I just did a quick bing chat search ("does DRI_PRIME work on systems without a cpu with integrated graphics?") and it says it will work. I can't check for you because my CPUs all have graphics.

I CAN tell you that some motherboards will support it (my ASUS does) and some don't (my MSI).

BTW, I'm talking about Linux. If you're using Windows, there's a whole series of hoops you have to jump through. LTT did a video a while back.

It opened for me on Android. Full article.

I just looked at my Steam stats today and 52% is RT3. There may be plenty of games that surpass it in visuals, but game mechanics are a different story, and without a stock market I don't see much of a point.

I played Tropico 3-5, but gave up after they refused to give us highways and overpasses.

I kind of feel the same way. When someone is offering service in exchange for pay, it signals that they're serious about this and see it as a part time job at least, as opposed to someone just doing it as a hobby or just for a learning experience.

In my search I found 3 that offer multiple services for a single donation/subscription:

  • Neat.Computer - Their terms of service weren't strong enough for me
  • Tromsite.com - I didn't like their Peertube upload policy
  • Tchncs.de - The one I ended up joining.

I really wanted a smaller instance, but I just couldn't find one that I was happy with.
