I believe the correct word to use is fewer in this case, since students are a finite countable thing. Sorry.

Maybe a paintball gun would be effective? I’d make sure you aren’t in view and wearing proper equipment though.

No browser with third party investors can be really independent, they always will obey more the interests of the investors as on those from the users.

That’s why they limited donations to $100k per organization. No one is allowed to make themselves indispensable to the project.

I have my system select the default option really quickly, so I don’t see GRUB. This makes it tempting to not do that, but I think I’ll accept the convenient option instead of the cool option still.

I’m sure you could have fixed it with GRUB Rescue. It’s slightly annoying, but it isn’t that hard to get booted from that. Once you get it to boot then you can fix things.

Don’t give up so quickly next time. It’s useful to learn how to fix it instead of just accepting failure and resetting everything.

No, it’s can’t not have an algorithm. Just “sort by new”, for example, is an algorithm.

Yeah, it should at least try to get their name. If it could include their job, income, family members, etc. that’d be great. It’s pretty trivially possible. Maybe don’t include address, because they could turn out poorly, but they should show how easy it is to get data on people.

What? Some systems have worse performance, primarily if you don’t have enough VRAM, but artifacting and blur? What do you mean? Sure, there’s blur with TAA/FSR/DLSS, but that’s always true and cam be toggled.

It’s mostly not UE5 exactly. UE5 just let’s devs turn on features that are performance hogs easily. Squad, for example, just upgraded from UE4 to UE5 but they took their time and did things in a smart way (like not using Lumen), and performance increased for a lot of people, with much higher detail too.

UE5 isn’t the issue. It’s devs who turn on all the features they can and ignore optimization because “the engine just handles it.” It’s got some really impressive technology, but it’ll ruin your game if you let it.

I mostly agree. I’d say they went uphill though, but so did every other game, but even faster. Each game improved some things, but the competition improved much more. They’ve been coasting off of name recognition ever since the first game.

Everyone supports terrorists. The difference is if you support the state doing terrorism. If you’re using violence for political gain, that’s the definition of terrorism. States do that all the time. That’s one of the primary roles of police in the US in fact.

LLMs don’t have no utility. They just aren’t good for everything. This is a reasonable use for them. Actually giving accurate information, not so much. Definitely not doing that require intelligence or creativity either. They’re text prediction algorithms. Using it to find the right text is what it should be good at.

Discord has quite a few good features that IRC doesn’t. I will agree that it being used as a replacement for a forum, while also being unsearchable, is amazingly stupid. However, it’s used by almost everyone for a reason, and to ignore that (if you were to develop and alternative) ensures you won’t succeed. Yeah, we don’t need every feature from Discord, but easy voice/text/video chats, image/file sharing, and all the other useful things are required. Yeah, we can probably lose the emotes and crap and be fine.

Fallout:Brotherhood of Steel…

It’s possible to keep all your binaries and config files on a separate partition and mount them in the root directory to be used with multiple distros. I’m not sure how well this would work if you’re switching to a very different distro though. I haven’t tried this, so it may be a very bad idea. I know it’s possible though.

I used Ubuntu and Mint ages ago, used Fedora when I switched to Linux full time a few years ago, and now I’m on Garuda. Basically, I’m aware of “The Valley of Despair” but refuse to enter it. I’m perfectly happy letting distro maintainers do most of the hard work. I have very little interest in raw dogging Arch, but Arch-based distros that put everything together in a nice package are great!

I don’t know. I expect it to be symmetrical in that direction. Why should it behave different tilting left than right? It being periodic is much more unexpected to me. It makes sense but, without really thinking about it, I would have expected it to be more chaotic.

Well, the punchline of this one is that they think the Linux logo is Club Penguin, but yeah, the original (if it ever existed on its own) is bad.

Sure, if you’re spending the price of a single computer on just the GPU then yeah, Nvidia has the best (only) option. For everything/everyone else, AMD is perfectly competitive. Personally, almost all the games that use the power my GPU has I don’t care for. It’s only the AAA games that really push my card usually, and they’re boring as hell, though they do look pretty —if only that made the game fun…

AMD does raytracing too. Nvidia has a slight lead for RTX, but my AMD card handles basically all the raytracing needs I have. The only time it hasn’t been sufficient is with CP2077, but I don’t even think the best Nvidia cards can max everything out on that yet, especially with mods.
