China, EEUU y Europa dominan mercado de vehículos eléctricos; contaminación persiste

el capitalismo verde “es una falacia, ya que, el consumidor piensa que deja de contaminar al comprar un auto de este tipo; lo que sucede es que la contaminación deja de ser visible”.

Beautiful stuff: "It’s not really enjoyable to make music now… it takes a lot of time, it takes a lot of practice, you have to get really good at an instrument... I think the majority of people don’t enjoy the majority of time they spend making music."

This and the Google product manager for the Pixel image manipulation tools saying you have to "clean up" your photos (remove people, erase incidental objects, change lighting) so that the image records the "true memory" of the moment (meaning, of course, the false memory of it).

Gotta hand it to the Fediverse, people made their own Starter Pack thing (like Bluesky).

So obviously I'm jumping in to help you find people to follow.

My first pack is Gaming News: fedidevs.com/s/MjI3/

Feel free to reply here for suggested accounts for me to add to it. But please don't suggest completely random communities and people. It's for account posting proper gaming news.

Boosts appreciated.

New Guide: How to install extra software, apps and games on SteamOS and Steam Deck gamingonlinux.com/guides/view/…

#SteamOS #Linux #SteamDeck

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

Additionally, if someone wants to install multiple pieces of software at once, they can go on packagepicker.co and pick up what they want from the limited pool, the site will then generate a single command to run on the terminal (obligatory disclaimer to always be cautious of random scripts on the internet)

It's conceptually similar to Ninite on Windows

I don't understand the outrage. On-device speech-to-text, text-to-speech and translation are very useful. They are 100% private, unlike Google Translate and other proprietary on-line services.


Interesting news for Mastodon.

They will transfer ownership of key Mastodon ecosystem and platform components to a new non-profit organization.

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

I tried #GemRB a couple of years ago but got the impression that it still wasn't a good experience, but still a curious experiment.

The worst part was how unstable it was, causing frequent crashes more often than the original game engines. This would be one of the most desirable traits, improved stability and crash management like you get with #OpenMW (The Morrowind open source engine project).

Has it gotten better? I can't seem to find any recent gameplay or reviews of it.

@msbellows thin section of a meteorite in cross polarized light; the meteorite has Martian signature; "Olivine macrocrysts (to 1.5 mm) and microphenocrysts (to 0.4 mm) are set in a finer groundmass of patchily zoned pyroxene, plagioclase (maskelynite), Ti-poor chromite, ilmenite, pyrrhotite and minor merrillite" (LPI)

I found his Instagram, he tags his uploads with "AI artwork" and "generative art", so definitely AI-generated. Anyhow, a disclaimer would've sufficed.

in reply to Cyberlyra

I feel like if I accomplish nothing else in life, I at least manage to get a few students a year to use password managers!

I personally use KeePass, which if combined with cloud storage (I use Nexcloud via @mayfirst) gets you the convenience of a cloud service without any company holding your keys.
