Was about to mention this.

One would believe an atomic clock to show the same time in seconds despite the celestial body it orbits. Though, that appears to be a fallacy and begs the question, what about relativity? Two identical atomic clocks would show different times depending on the influence of gravity (like near-lightspeed travel), so does everyone carry a clock around with them?

Or, at least that’s what I remember from physics class.

Can’t those both be true at the same time?

The “system” is working as intended by the rich elite/<insert antagonist>, which means that it’s fundamentally broken for the general populace, and therefore must be fixed, which is easiest done by first destroying and then rebuilding it?

Seems like an oxymoron to me, but I’m not entirely sure of the context.

What really sets the Steam Controller (and the Steam Deck’s control layout) apart from the market are the dual touchpads and dynamically/easily programmable buttons. The above just looks like a reskinned XBox controller, and, if I read the article right, it needs a “companion app” to get full functionality out of the controller.

I hope that they at least made sure that the companion app works on the Steam Deck.

You thought journalism had reached rock bottom already? Watch this:

Wanted to upvote you, but accidentally clicked the link. Whooops.

Oh, no no, I was talking about the down votes that you’ve been receiving. My bad!

Doesn’t matter, it’s fun to see how far you can bend definitions (and I did go rather far with that one).

Also, I’m not sure where those down votes are coming from. Showerthoughts don’t need to be fully logical, taking all edge cases into account, etc. After all, it’s just a showerthought to discuss and joke/awe about.

In that case, you’d never see anything through anything but a “screen” because of the lens in your eye. (Using the definition of “screen” to be a “barrier”, which in this case provokes a transformation, or projection, of light.)

Ideally, a .mp4, or any other non-executable file format, would not be able to execute rogue code on your computer, but the programs you use to open the files with might have security flaws which allow rogue code execution if done right.

You might have a hypothetical file, which might not be dangerous if opened with VLC, but which exploits a flaw in, say, Windows Media Player version x.y.z to execute a payload.

Sorry, for not including any examples, I’m currently not at the PC.

In other words: OP is barking up the wrong tree as the EVs have little to no correlation with the non-EV-related carbon footprint of the EV owners.

Unless, of course, if OP is implying that EVs are too hard to acquire for the less wealthy consumers, though I somehow doubt that.

Are people wealthier because they own an EV, or are people who own an EV generally wealthier?

Dunno about kids, but I’ve seen my fair share of grown men who appear to think so.

Ladders tend to be more stable if you lean them on the tree trunk, and not the branch you’re about to saw off.

I think i read that fighter pilots need to be able to identify a plane in one frame at 300 fps, and that the theoretical limit of the eye is 1000+ fps.

Though, whether the brain can manage to process the data at 1000+ fps is questionable.

Hurr hurr, I’m gonna plot f(x,y)=x^2+y3 where y=x for x limit inf. Checkmate science!

Edit: the graph isn’t actually linear, man, and here I just thought it’d be that easy. :(

This is the way!

Way simpler than using any GUI tool or somehow recreating the partition and manually copying the files.

Not sure if i understand the request, but there’s the !trackers@lemmy.dbzer0.com community if you’re looking for open signups.

Pretty sure Leif Eriksson landed in Vinland before Columbus landed in the Bahamas.

In other words, I’ll be formulating a proposal to Mette-Mink to reclaim what only can belong to the (once) glorious Denmark!

I’m gonna be honest: I’ve been skimping on anti malware since i moved to Linux.

Still keeping up the common sense part about running code you don’t know and running untrusted code and weird URLs in a virtual environment (well, except for the AUR perhaps), but I only scan for malware once or twice a year, if at all.

Actually, I just did a scan with RKHunter which came back clean except for the usual false flags, which I find mildly suspicious as one would imagine there to be some malware with all the small time programmers and script kiddies in the Linux community.

What are you using as anti malware? Anyone knows of good methods for set-and-forget or some good GUIs for easy containment management, scanning, and whitelisting? It can’t be that ClamAV, RKHunter, and chkrootkit are the only halfway decent AVs out there.

Yeah, we’ve noticed you taking the joke and reference rather seriously.

Hadn’t actually noticed it was Mac first before you mentioned it, but no, if it works for Mac, then it likely also works for Linux (and that’s what counts, right?).

Contrary to my previous statement, I’ve actually tried downloading Zed. The first thing I noticed was the “sign in” in the top right corner. Feels rather unsightly, but no biggie. It appears to redirect to GitHub authorization, after which it fails with a “OAuthCallback”-error. Might be my fault, can’t remember if I’ve disabled or limited unnecessary functionality in GitHub.

The design feels slick and most options are hidden away or represented by only a small icon with tooltips. It appears that no advanced settings page exists, as nearly everything is handled in JSON (initially thought that a visual settings page must have been hidden away deep down somewhere, but that appears to be wrong).

Coop programming seems to be a big feature, but I’ll skip that as it appears to need setup.

Also, the LLM part is not nearly as prominent as their front page makes it out to be, rather feels like an option than a prominent or forced feature, so that’s really nice.

The included extensions (nice to have them as they’re no given) appear to focus on themes and syntax, can’t find any cross-development nor compilation related extensions which is just fine. Compilation is best handled in the terminal anyway.

Overall it feels pretty solid, definitely different from the first impressions of their page. Might be even better with more diverse extensions, though, I haven’t looked at the internet for unlisted extensions, and I’m not sure how old the project is (the extensions might just not be made yet).

There’s also no pop-ups, start pages with all kinds of featured content, nor settings or buttons that grab your attention away from your work (except the login button, perhaps. I would like to see what it looks like once logged in).

I’m probably missing most features as my GitHub integration fails, but I’m overall positively surprised.
