I don’t understand the basis of the 24Hz limit rumor. My monitors are 144Hz, and if I limit them to 60Hz and move my mouse around I see fewer residual mouse cursors “after-images” than I do at 144Hz. That’s a simplified test that shows that the eye can perceive motion artifacts beyond 60Hz.

The eye can perceive LEDs that are rectified at 60Hz AC, it’s very annoying.

I won’t accept my pasta at anything lower than 120Hz.

If submerged land can be called continents, where’s the line between what is and isn’t a continent?

The Facebook representative could not answer whether…

This guy’s terrible at his job. Even I can answer that one.

Abso-fucking-lutely yes.

At least a fire can happen anywhere.

I also know not to struggle in quicksand and I’d be way more confused if that appeared in my daily routine.

And c/keming if it exists because damn that’s a painful font to look at.

Oh no I meant you were right. The article clarifies it, but the title is still odd the way it only says he hit a bicycle.

Yeah even the article says “bicyclist” while the title just says “bicycle”. Strange wording choice.

It blows my mind that anyone can be that wrong on all topics.

It’s like the difference between choosing random answers on a multiple choice test versus knowing the right answers and actively avoiding them to get the worst result. It feels like they’re trying to punish the US for something.

The “everything reminds me of him/her” meme refers to some ex relationship.

Another meaning for “gaslighter” is someone who manipulates you and makes you feel like you’re crazy.

So they’re saying this lighter reminds them of their mentally abusive ex. Which is really more sad than funny the more I explain it.

Helldivers 2 works on Linux by the way. It was the first game I installed on Linux and I have almost 100 hrs on it. I haven’t tried the others you mentioned though.

I switched to Linux Mint a couple months ago and use Steam a lot. I’ve tried at least 10 games and all worked perfectly.

But I don’t do competitive multiplayer. Those are more likely to have issues with anti-cheats. Although I did try Hell Let Loose and Helldivers very successfully and those are both major online titles.

Check https://protondb.com if you’re worried about a specific game’s compatibility. I’ve had silver rated games work perfectly though.

Edit: Apps - Photo editing and 3D CAD are the main areas I’ve struggled with on Linux. There’s no good Adobe equivalent, and no good Fusion 360 equivalent. Free CAD exists, but that can gently fuck off.

Strangely, it’s not racism. This Attorney General is just notoriously an asshole.

Sandra Hemme, a white woman, was the longest wrongfully incarcerated person, and she recently went through the same issue in Missouri.

I’m sure you’re not wrong about the racism, but his bullshit seems to transcend race.

That’s true, but it became clear that others would experience similar emotions.

Also according to the Wikipedia, the author regretted writing them in a way that suggested they’re a linear progression of steps. I’ve only actually heard the steps used as a sitcom plot point (Monk, Scrubs).

Bailey, who was appointed attorney general … has a history of opposing overturning convictions, even when local prosecutors cite evidence of actual innocence.

In 2023, Bailey’s office argued against then-St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner’s effort to overturn the murder conviction of Lamar Johnson, who was imprisoned 28 years. A St. Louis judge sided with Johnson, who was freed.

Bailey’s office also argued in court in May against freeing Christopher Dunn, who has spent 33 years in prison for a 1990 killing that St. Louis Circuit Attorney Gabe Gore determined that Dunn probably didn’t commit. A judge is still deciding that case.

And Bailey is opposing St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Wesley Bell’s effort to set aside the murder conviction of Marcellus Williams. A hearing is Aug. 21 — just a month before Williams is scheduled to be executed. Testing unavailable at the time of the 1998 stabbing death found another person’s DNA on the knife, but not Williams’.

I would love to hear his justification for all of these. Is it just the for-profit prison money, or the pride of not being wrong?

If the wildlife hates you gallon-of-pepper-spray style, just let them have that forest damn.

There’s a USB 3 B. I just encountered it, and that bitch somehow got chunkier.

Is his last name really minecraft? Like Master Halo from Halo?

Train spotting used to be the niche hobby.

We’ve come a long way. I don’t know which way, but here we are.
