  • Well, at least the upcoming Apple car will have perfect panel alignments.

  • What they're NOT is alt right trolls in disguise as some idiots claim.

    Kinda not hard to see it like that because a lot of them seems to defend Russia.

  • Hydrogen fuel cell is a thing and can use hydrogen to directly generate electricity with up to 60% efficiency.

  • Well, if you look at their main competitors, it's kinda true though.

  • The last time Israel did atrocities in Gaza and countries sat idly by, various terror groups gained traction because they use the fact that the world did nothing to help Palestine to boost their recruitment drives. We'll probably see the rise of terrorism again in a few years because of this.

  • I feel old. So many open source projects use discord these days. It's kinda absurd putting documentation and support in a platform not indexed by search engines.

  • Denuvo was basically adding a ~30fps overhead

    I'm very surprised when I read an announcement that id software were removing denuvo from doom eternal. The game was running very well on weak hardware I never suspected it has denuvo at all. After denuvo removal, I tried running the game again and didn't notice any difference in performance. Maybe id software is an exception here and they worked some magic with their denuvo integration.

  • A lot of recent controversial decisions in Linux desktop environment space made sense if you see who's the driving force behind them, which is the big corps who want to make Linux works better for their use case, but not necessarily YOUR use case.

  • Lemmy is basically a Linux forum these days. Have you seen that kind of attitude here on Lemmy? You should give Linux another go and post any problem you have here on Lemmy.

  • Situation: there are 10 Linux gaming distros

    "This is ridiculous. We need to develop one universal gaming distro for people who are switching over for gaming purpose!"

    Situation: there are 11 Linux gaming distros

    Joking aside, there are already quite a handful of gaming oriented distros such as Garuda, Nobara, Batocera, Drauger, Lakka, Bazzite, Holo, etc.

  • The AirPods released on 2016 basically kickstarted tws popularity.

  • Bogan: can't use phone if you have beers on both hands

  • Japan is only 3:45 hours? How? Are those salarymen working 12hrs per day in front of their computers not counted? Or is it offset by kids not allowed to use smartphones at school?

  • There are ways to sideload apps on iOS, but it's pain in the ass. From my memory (may not be 100% correct as of today):

    • many 3rd party apps not allowed in apps store are distributed in source code form. use xcode to compile the app yourself and load it to your phone. Works for a week, then you'll have to install it again. Oh, and you can only install three at a time.
    • there are 3rd party apps stores that sort of working by distributing their developer certificates along with the 3rd party apps (e.g. tweakboxapp, etc). You'll need to trust the developer certificates before you can install the apps. Oh, and apple frequently revoked their certificates so you'll going to play cat and mouse with apple.
    • use altstore.io to install 3rd party app. The same 3 apps limit still apply, but this app automatically manage reinstallation for you, so it can reduce the pain of managing sideloaded apps just a bit.
  • Something also built by china might be a good comparison. The new high speed trains in Indonesia (also built by china) regularly go up to 350 kmph.

  • The care package with roadside assistance seems reasonable, though your insurance usually already cover road assistance. The plus package is insane though, they charge that much just to enable remote start via their app?

  • It's very obvious that the kind of people that hang around in fediverse absolutely despise Rowling. I never see any positive discourse about Harry Potter here. Even discussions about the game are generally negative.

  • Now you seems to get MySQL permission issue (or wrong database password, but your issue is probably not that). When using docker compose, MySQL won't see access coming from linguacafe's container as coming from localhost, but instead it's coming from a different IP address inside docker subnet. So make sure your MySQL user has proper privilege, e.g. by granting all permissions to 'user'@'%'.
