Ubuntu is developed and controlled by a corporation (canonical) and they have some non ideal practices (like pushing snaps heavily instead of the more open flatpaks or native apps). Mint takes what’s good in Ubuntu and cleans it up a lot.
I’ve heard that happen with mint before. Try a bit more modern distro like fedora or openSUSE maybe?
Even that tariff thing can be positive for us already. At least here in Germany, big Hollywood productions snag a lot of public funding, because they produce a small amount of the film in Germany. That money could’ve gone to smaller, national productions (that actually need the money) instead and maybe, if Hollywood has a disincentive to produce outside of 'Murrica, that funding can actually go to someone who needs it.
Or they’ll just fund the same lame ‘comedy’ films with the same jokes, same directors and same actors as the last 20 years again. Because why would they ever take a risk on sth new and creative, if the same old works just about well enough
The voice acting alone is worth a lot. Oblivion did not age well in that regard. Not that it was ever great to beginn with…
Ah, that‘d make sense
I never quite got how interviews could be rare. Lost, maybe. But as soon as it’s on YouTube, how can it be rare? It’s right there, available to everyone, any time.
No, that’s ‘Beretta’.
Better is a German woman‘s name, which, prefixed by ‘Big’ is also the nickname given to a large German howitzer in WWI.
For books, library genesis would be a better place to look than piratebay though.
Last time I used it (been a while though) it was free, if you only transferred playlists up to 200 songs
„The ability to play chess is the sign of a gentleman. The ability to play chess well is the sign of a wasted life.“
No. Technically, both watermelons and cucumbers are berries.
That’s because our eyes adapt themselves to different colour temperatures all the time during the day (a tungsten light bulb has very warm (orange) light, while daylight is much cooler (blue), for example, yet white is always white to us). This happens automatically and subconsciously.
If you close one eye for a little while though, it „resets“ back to its default colour temperature. After opening it again, it’ll take a little while for it to start compensating to the correct white point again and thus you‘ll have different hues on both eyes for a little while.
The effect is exaggerated a lot, if you close one eye and then look at a bright monochromatic image with the other one (like a bright red image on your phone, close to your face).
Or, of course, if you wear anaglyphic 3D glasses (that’s the red/green or red/cyan kind) for a while, as one eye will try to compensate for the red as much as it can, while the other one will try to compensate for the green/cyan as much as possible. Result: the eye with the red glass will look much cooler after taking off the glasses, and the eye with the green/cyan glass much warmer.
Generally that effect will balance itself out after a little while. Except for very slight variances of course. Our eyes and brains are far from perfect.
Yea. Humans never needed an excuse for violence.
Or rather, we always found an excuse, religion is merely one of them.
Game dev salaries have increased roughly in line with inflation though, so development time still costs the studio the same as 15 years ago, while AAA game prices are only now starting to surpass the $70 mark with games not generally surpassing the $60 mark until 2020.
It’s a wonder, they haven’t increased to prices any sooner, as much as I‘d like them staying where they were.
And again: if you don’t like the prices, vote with your wallet, buy used or on sale or don’t pay at all.
Yea, I don’t generally disagree. Especially if you‘re someone who plays games for hundreds of hours, instead of dozens.
But $100 is still a lot of money for a lot of people. I‘d have to save up for months for that (I’m a trainee and have less than 1000€ per month for rent, food, internet, gas, etc.), so I rather wait until I can get games cheaper.
Eh, there‘s some truth to either one. Game development is expensive and pricing hasn’t kept up with inflation ($60 in 2010 are almost $90 today). But also, games are ridiculously expensive at full price, especially in todays economy and especially if they’re as badly received as Skull and Bones, while Nintendo games are at the very least usually pretty decent.
I’d recommend voting with your wallet and only buying games on sale or used. Just wait a little. (Or pirate them, if you can live with not supporting the developers at all).
My dad is also a huge Outlook fan. I think you need to just have been using it for 20+ years
I still quite liked Black Flag and Unity (although far from perfect, especially at launch) and even Origins was pretty good. But Ubisoft Quebec just managed to poop on AC lore multiple times, most egregiously with odyssey.
God, I hated that game. I miss my classic Assassin’s Creed.
Have you ever seen a Bud Spencer movie? They’re straight up not even half as funny in the original language.
