The Dalai Lama references are from the Air Nomads, not Fire Nation

Most Americans are too dumb to realize the allegory in ATLA.

I am 100% certain it will be worth it. FROM have never half-assed a game nor expansion, Elden Ring least of all.

It’ll almost certainly not run very well, but I still played 100hr of the base game despite its poor performance. I preordered too because I know regardless of technical state it will be worth playing.

1. Ubuntu wants to own snap, with their own proprietary store etc which runs against alternatives like Flatpak and goes against the FOS ethos

2. Snap is slower and worse than Flatpak (the most popular alternative) in most ways, with very few pros that will likely be caught-up-to soon too

Matrix is more of a Discord alternative than a Whatsapp alternative though unless I’m mistaken?

Signal is a means for message encryption, and if every platform used it and then were mandated to interop, they’d have to figure out how to do the actual transfer, yes. RCS is basically this except nerfed and partially Google-owned which is shit.

The limited benchmarks I’ve seen put the new X Elite at slightly less efficient than the M2 Pro (let alone M3 Pro). It only gets marginally higher scores when operating at 3x the wattage.

Also, let’s not imagine even for a second that notoriously terrible ARM are going to make it easy to support this chip, especially not in the long term.

Would be goated if everyone just switched to the Signal protocol and interop was mandated, but that’ll never happen unfortunately.

Microblogs like Mastodon are excellent for following specific people, and for getting an overview of the current zeitgeist. Forums like Lemmy are excellent for following specific topics. Both are useful in different ways.

Actually, Suicide Squad equal with Justice League.

Suicide Squad. No explanation needed.

I have an M1 Pro 16 and love it, but its already huge $3750 AUD price tag has ballooned to $4250 for the M3 Pro 16 whose only difference is the chip. I love my MacBook but unless Apple returns to earth with their pricing and/or makes the machines worth that much by providing more than the barest essential specs at those prices, I will be buying something else when this MacBook is done.

I love Fedora but definitely Mint for a normie. Even then I question if you should install Linux at all since reliably being able to do what you need to do is priority one, especially for a student, and if he may be blocked in his work as a result I don’t think it’s a great idea.

Pros: Moderation quality, app ecosystem, no corporations or ads.

Cons: Small community, wayyy too much duplication of ‘subreddits’ on Lemmy across different servers (inherently not an issue on Mastodon).

You don’t care about the many other ways that not using and supporting Chromium is better, ie. not having Google’s new invasive advertising system?

The Flips also have a worse display, camera system, build quality, battery life, and just everything than either of those alternate Samsung phones.

I didn’t say folding phones are a gimmick, I said they’re fragile and bad value propositions.

I used to pirate everything when I had no money. Now that I have money I buy games - including everything I ever pirated - and I pay for a few other subscription services that are worth or nearly worth their price. I pirate anything else.
