Another point is that cars, car infrastructure, and car oriented development is one of the single most wasteful ways to use land. Building smarter cities with alternative transit systems, mixed use areas, and actually using all 3 dimensions like many newer cities in China could protect so much habitat from needlessly being destroyed. There's hardly any truly wild land left on the east coast, it's hard to tell what things used to look like now that practically everything is covered in suburbs and strip malls.
Yes for now. That rule might change though
I guess if 1 and 2 get taken out things could get a lot worse 乁( •_• )ㄏ
I'm still waiting for games to release on Linux with good compatibility, I hope that's the case since the steam deck has been out for a bit. Unfortunately every Linux native game I've tried so far has had some issues that were resolved switching to wine
It "just works" 95% of the time with no tweaks. That's the benefit. Games in your library will install and run with zero intervention, just like on Windows and at times with better compatibility because the tweaks and dependencies are already configured. It's nice not having to manage wine versions and prefixes.
This is my biggest gripe with developers. More often than not the native version either has worse performance or poor compatibility whereas the windows versions just seem to work. It seems like they aren't putting effort into making their games compatible with newer compositors or something because proton "just works".
Plus you can probably run stock Android on the op6 if you wanted to run Android 13
It said support was bipartisan, which if you know anything about Michigan conservatives and Whitmer its pretty shocking they'd agree on anything
Poor kid. 2 weeks of his schooling disrupted over complete bs. Dress code is already mostly bs, but leave it to Texas to take it the nth degree and dictate hair length. Not even in Utah do they have such draconian rules on hair length.
This is all I want. I'll settle for an iPhone when apple fully complies with EU regulations. Once they officially allow third party app stores I'll be interested, and at that point I wouldn't know the difference between the two
I can see this going wrong with steam proton if each install gets it's own wine config, simply reinstalling or updating might look like a new machine
Yeah my SO and I are too busy with bg3, maybe by the time we get to it it'll have a coop mod ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I am absolutely fucking loving this game. The split screen coop is incredible, albeit it needs some work. Honestly one of the best game me and my SO have played in a long, long time and by far the most immersive campaign we've ever been able to play together.
I'm playing on Linux and there are only a few issues I've come across: local multiplayer is disabled by default and requires an environment variable to enable, also there seems to be a memory leak after playing for a few hours where fps drops pretty dramatically. Other than that I don't think there's much of a difference between windows and pc.
It's honestly sad that these people would rather hold on to the little power they have than retire and spend the little time they have left with family.
I'm excited Ukraine is developing a strategy that is working for them. Autonomous drones are the inevitable next step imo, ai chips are getting cheaper and cheaper. For example, you give a swarm a set of targets and it knows exactly what it needs to do to reach the target and exactly where to hit, release thousands of them and train a model that can run on cheap, low power hardware and boom you have a serious, serious problem if even 1% of them are successful because they'll be functional entirely on their own offline. Add onto that they use off the shelf hardware and it becomes nearly impossible to blame anyone for any given attack.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but coal powered plants have caused more cancer than any of those events on their own and when operated safely to modern standards they have a very low to no risk of release whereas coal plants release pollutants by design. Nuclear waste is in a solid state so it's far easier to dispose of underground vs coal which immediately gets put into the atmosphere
This sounds like a slam dunk separation of church and state case. I've seen a lot of bs from the LDS since moving to Utah, from liquor licenses to psychiatric care, etc. I do not trust them to responsibly hand out welfare to those that need it. If they were giving out these funds directly to the state with no strings attached, fine, but it appears that they don't and they are in control of how the aid is given, and maybe even who receives it which is hugely problematic even if they help non-mormons.
Anyone defending this as "fiscally responsible" are idiots that have no idea how this church works or how our country was meant to work.
Honestly, that would be great news, and I hope you know many Americans would support deregulation of zoning laws for exactly this effect. A drop in housing prices is exactly what we need. People treating home ownership as an investment are the problem, home ownership should be more like owning a car: it's a commodity, not an investment. We should not be subsidizing poor financial decisions, I feel bad for everyone wrapped up in it, but ultimately the system we're in has been broken for a long, long time
I'm glad to hear that's not the case! I was speaking on my own experience living out west in the US where there is still a lot of public land. The attitude in the western US is unfortunately pretty bad. They want more and more public land to develop into low density single family home markets like Phoenix. It's pretty infuriating hearing the locals moan about BLM and concoct conspiracies about how they stole land from them and show zero interest in the health of the local wildlife.
There's still quite a bit of untouched land in Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Navajo, basically anywhere that has large amounts of BLM land, but this unfortunately is getting pushback from locals who want everything to be developed.
Yeah I can't help but feel so frustrated seeing people develop places like this. In order to support wildlife they need valleys as well as mountains. You can't just build on every strip of usable land because a lot of animals need to graze and nest there too.
