That’s really unusual. My experience has been the opposite on Linux Mint, most games run the same or better than when I was on windows. I had a little bit of trouble getting world of warcraft to work at first, but I was mostly done playing that anyway. I guess it’s all down to what games you play.
Nope, carbon tax is different to carbon offsets. A carbon tax is intended to put an immediate financial burden onto energy producers and/or consumers commensurate to the environmental impact of the power production and/or consumption.
From a corporations perspective, it makes no sense to worry about the potential economic impact of pollution which may not have an impact for decades. By adding a carbon tax, those potential impacts are realised immediately. Generally, the cost of these taxes will be passed to the consumer, affecting usage patterns as a potential direct benefit but making it a politically unattractive solution due to the immediate cost of living impact. This killed the idea in Australia, where we still argue to this day whether it should be reinstated. It also, theoretically, has a kind of anti-subsidy effect. By making it more expensive to “do the wrong thing” you should make it more financially viable to build a business around “doing the right thing”.
All in theory. I don’t know what studies are out there as to the efficacy of carbon tax as a strategy. In the Australian context, I think we should bring it back. But while I understand why the idea exists and the logic behind why it should work, I don’t know how that plays out in practice.
They are almost certainly restricting the amount of information they release under the advice of the legal team at the University, in preparation for the impending commercialization. I agree, it’d be great to have the details and to live in a world where all information is free and open. However, we don’t on both counts. The assumption that they could only be attempting to mislead people when this isn’t even a product for sale yet, is at best naïve and at worst willfully obtuse.
The snippet quoted in the original comments and referenced in subsequent comments refers specifically to the decibel reduction of the frequencies being targeted by the invention, not the volume of the overall sound.
I feel like there’s a level of easy, that’s still secure. I used to be the kind of person who used the same password for everything. Now, I’ve changed that password on everything and I’m particular about using a password manager even for most local uses. But when I’m performing first time set up, I use a variation on that easy to type, burned into my brain old password. It’s not incredibly secure, but it’s not 4 digits or my birthday or anything of the like.
It’d be a cheaper solution than switching to an AMD card for my gaming pc, which is my current plan. I do want to upgrade from my 2080 anyways, but graphics card are just SO expensive
I’ve seen lots of people recommend PopOS for NVidia users. I personally haven’t tried it yet, but could be worth a shot if you get sick of windows again.
I don’t know if @Hackerman_uwu is enough? I’m writing this comment to test it
Maybe !Hackerman_uwu@lemmy.world
Edit: nope neither of those work
The browser versions aren’t too awful, if that’s an option.
Makes you connectable. If you don’t forward ports for your torrent client you can only connect to peers who are port forwarding, meaning you will download and upload more slowly in most cases.
You might know this already, but try emailing the primary authors directly and asking for a copy, it’s often the easiest way to get them if you haven’t got any other way to access.
Citrus & coffee is a fantastic combo. My go to in summer is espresso, ice water and a hefty squeeze of lemon. Super refreshing, and a nice amount of sweetness without being too syrupy (or too unhealthy).
Yep - Italian cappuccino has no chocolate foam and the variation is the amount of milk. All of them, including the flat white, use steamed milk with variations on the foam by how it’s been steamed (i.e. introducing a lot of foam or next to none).
The colours are in the wrong order on others, like the Bicerin
Same here. Occasionally served with liqueur, something like Kahlua or Bailey’s.
Eh, I know plenty of developers glued to the apple ecosystem who could probably have a lot of fun with it if they were able to. They just don’t rate it as important enough to counteract the things they like about the ecosystem.

My doctor gave me four months to live.
100%. When one of the cons is no meaningful protection against injury, a helmet should be a huge pro. It absolutely saves lives.
