And they have enough people to maintain and inspect the hundreds of thousands of reactors that are going to be built, if those small reactors work?

From personal experience I can tell that once I went for the basic knive sharpener, the mean sharpness of my knives increased significantly. Yes, the whetstone makes them sharper, but it takes so much tile that I usually used my knives far too long before I sharpened them again. Once I got some basic knives sharpener (thebthings you pull your knive through), I suddenly started to sharpen the knives the moment I noticed they became a little dull.

Thank you for sharing your layout. It was a good starting point. I changed some things arond a bit and arrived at the following layout. I find it good for writing in german, but in english there are still some challenges like ou or oo that are kind of slow…

Yeah I also struggle with the layouts. I feel like they are not optimal for German, even the German layout. Most of the letters that often come in pairs like mm or ll are locked behind swipe gestures, which makes it really hard to type them fast. I get, why the most common letters are in the top layer, but I think swiping twice the same letter takes so much more time than swiping a common letter once… Maybe I have to adjust it a little. As far as I understand it is possible to edit the layouts in the app.

Back when the original released it was a great RPG with a great story and a world that felt alive, compared to most other RPG that were on the market. The world was open to explore from the begining without any safeguards to run into strong monsters, which helped the emersion a lot. The controls were strange, but worked somehow, when you got used to it. Combat was challenging and the leveling was rewarding, because you got notably stronger. I hope the remake is good and translates these strength into the modern age.

So you are not looking forward to the new CopilotBox by Microsoft?

Ok, so Mastodon can post to lemmy, does this also work the other way around? And could I follow persons on mastodon somehow woth my Lemmy account? Does this show up as a small community?

It is going to get harder and harder for unskilled workers to find jobs that are not easily replaced by robots and ai. Only hope I have is for ai becoming so expensive to finance the giant investments going on right now, that workers have chance to compete.

I find it still mind blowing that HDD still improves the storage density to this day. Especially that something like HAMR works reliably and fast feels kind of crazy.

I hope they follow through with it. And I also hope they allow for quick incremental changes instead of aiming for the perfect solution right away that will take a decade to develop and implement. Just to be clear, I think it should be the far goal to be fully independent from US and other non-EU software.

Everyone was happy when they could outsource dirty and labor-intensive jobs to China and benefit from the cheap products. China gladly took on these tasks and built a monopoly. Now, it is the sole source for most minerals and rare earth elements because everyone else stopped producing them. China is now moving up the value chain, processing these raw materials into higher-value products. However, the world has become so dependent on China’s mineral supplies that countries cannot block trade with China without risking their own production halts, since China could also stop selling the materials they rely on. This is already happening with rare earth minerals and other critical resources like tungsten.

Only way put of this would be a long time strategic investment into local manufacturing capacities, but it will cost a lot and take a lot of time. And China will dump the prices until those companies go out of business again and then we are back at the start. Happened with solar, is happening with batteries, I wonder what will be next…

Somehow, statistics rarely reflect the massive trade surplus the U.S. enjoys in digital services. Link The country deliberately shifted its focus away from manufacturing, outsourcing production globally. With the freed-up capacity, it built a digital empire that generates billions of dollars annually.

The catch? This digital surplus flows almost exclusively into the pockets of a few corporate leaders. Meanwhile, the majority of people are left with shrinking incomes from former manufacturing jobs, jobs that once distributed wealth more evenly across small businesses and the workforce.

That helped a lot, thank you.

Thanks for the explanation. So it works similar to the system partition on windows. I somehow struggle a little to understand the role of distribution. When researching how to install Linux, it seemed like an important choice with lots of differences between the various distributions. Some are based on arch, some fedora or ubuntu. It seems like all need different types of packages to install software. And so on. A little ironic, that this is less a problem when running Windows executables through a compatibility layer like wine.

Thanks for the detailed reply. I will try to follow your advice the next time, I run into problems.

I thought it might be a bigger problem with mint, because eldenring is not a new game and i also found posts of people running it on Linux without any problems about 3 years ago. So I figured it should run well with the state of the art version of things without having to update to any special new versions.

You mentioned distro swapping. So far I deleted all partition when installing a new distribution. (Happened only once, and i did not setup a lot before the new install) Can i just switch the distro without having to redownload every game as long as i do have them on another partition or are they kind of dependent on the used distribution?

I am relatively new to Linux and first tried to go with Linux Mint, because it was advertised as user friendly and good all around. But games, especially eldenring, did not run well and with a lot of stutter. I was kind of disappointed and switched to nobara. Now i am really happy with the experience, everything runs perfectly and without much problems.

Any idea what could cause this, if evey distro is the same? As far as I could tell, I updated everything on mint to the latest available version and the GPU (7900 gre) was also correctly identified. Would be interesting what i could have changed to make it work.

Same for me. In the moment I left the starting dungeon I lost all interest in exploring the world. Tried it 3 times over the years and never progressed further. I am wondering if the remake might be different and worth another try… I heard so much good about oblivion that I really see me enjoying it.

At least the French are fighting back. Hope they are successful.

None of them. That’s why he is now trying to build robots…
