What I also appreciate about Chaos is that their writers know they’re evil. I swear the people writing loyalist books forget that the Imperium is basically as bad as the rest in its own way.

CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•why are website language switchers in the current language?English4·7 days agoEven worse when a version is actually different. I had to check the US prices in a store once, it decided “nah mate, your IP’s not American, clearly you’re a bloody idiot, here’s your native version” and even when I manually changed the url to US English, as they did languages based on part of the path, it still decided clearly I must not know what I want. I couldn’t even try to infer the price, as the product didn’t exist on my version of the site.
And aside from that and language pet peeves, what if you’re on Holiday? Or live in an area that speaks a lot of languages close together?
As Cousin Mose said, the language is in the header, the fact that some web devs decide the IP address is clearly a better way to figure out what language you want is insane

CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto DACH - Deutschsprachige Community für Deutschland, Österreich, Schweiz@feddit.org•Nach Verbot von Pride-Flaggen: Grüne und Linke erscheinen als Regenbogen im BundestagEnglish10·14 days agoDer von Bundestagspräsidentin Julia Klöckner (CDU) in dieser Wahlperiode neu berufene Direktor Paul Göttke hatte entschieden, „dass die Bundestagsverwaltung als solche, insbesondere aufgrund der gebotenen Neutralitätspflicht, nicht an politischen Demonstrationen und öffentlichen Versammlungen teilnimmt“, wie der Bundestag vergangene Woche mitgeteilt hatte.
“Dass unterdrückte Minderheiten das Recht haben sollten in Frieden zu existieren ist nicht neutral genug” ist ja mal eine wundervolle Einstellung. Ich finde auch Gesetze zu vollstrecken ist nicht neutral genug, hat mal jemand an die Täter gedacht?
Even as a work truck it’s comically large. You can get the same amount of cargo space in a far smaller vehicle, this one’s only advantage would be the sheer horsepower which you only need for very specific work.
CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Linux@lemmy.ml•System76 Releases COSMIC Alpha 7 Desktop - Last Step Before BetaEnglish2·3 months agoFor me it’s pretty likely to replace it, at least on my laptop. Don’t get me wrong, I love Plasma, but per-screen workspaces and native window tiling are two features I never knew how much I needed before I tried out Hyprland some months back, especially on a single screen. While I’ll definitely miss the desktop panels and extensive settings menu, I’ll give those up for the other features without much of a second thought.
Meiner Erfahrung nach machen die eher Probleme mit Wayland. X11 funktioniert super mit meiner Nvidia GPU, Wayland eher weniger.
In terms of 40K recipes, corpse starch is pretty easy. De-bone a (generally human, but others can work in a pinch) corpse, grind up the rest, add salt, and pack it in a can.
In a literal translation it would be, but considering it’s not a big bang, but the big bang, it’d be “Urknall” which I’m not sure how best to literally translate to English, but it’s something along the lines of “bang of origin” or “original bang”.
That doesn’t make the tweet any less wrong though, this is just semantics.
CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Games@lemmy.world•Half Life: Alyx is Five Years Old TodayEnglish1·4 months agoThere is, yes, but it’s pointless. I think some people are missing the point of Alyx being a VR game, the game would suck pretty bad in pancake mode. It’s the intricate interactions with the world you simply can’t get with a mouse and keyboard that make it special compared to other Half Life games. They didn’t just make a regular Half Life game and said “well we’re just gonna force this to be in VR now”, they made a VR game and set it in the Half Life universe.
CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Games@lemmy.world•Half Life: Alyx is Five Years Old TodayEnglish8·4 months agoSomewhat hot take… I’d argue Boneworks (not Bonelab) was “better”, at least if you’re used to VR and if you judge by freedom and replay value. Don’t get me wrong, playing through Half Life Alyx was fun and engaging, but to me it had little to no replay value, since for all it did great in visuals, audio, accessibility, and especially story, it failed dramatically in physics. Since I played Alyx right after Boneworks, I kept trying to pick stuff up which I ended up not being able to for larger objects, and the first time I tried to knock a Combine over the head with a pipe I was so sorely disappointed. Alyx has absolutely everything Boneworks is missing, yet that physics core is what kept me coming back to the latter. It really clicked for me when I noticed how many things in Boneworks one can solve in alternate ways by “abusing” physics. Climbing is a learned skill and combat can be as much shooting as it can be using knives, fists, shoving someone off a ledge, or grabbing an enemy and throwing it at others. It’s what truly made me realize how much potential VR had, being able to interact with a full physics simulation, where even your own body is a physics object, with your physical hands is amazing.
CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•"You should probably just throw it away"English12·4 months agoProton is based on Wine, when people say Wine in a gaming context, there’s a decent chance they just mean Proton. Also there’s absolutely no need for gaming distros in this situation, gaming works out of the box on any (semi-normal) distro, the most you’ll have to do is flick a switch in Steam.
Edit: Or in this case with the Sims install Lutris I guess, since it’s an EA game, but that also isn’t much more difficult
CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Organic Maps (Unofficial)@sopuli.xyz•Organic Maps is where it's at!English37·5 months agoI’d encourage use of StreetComplete, you can walk around your local area and get lots of points to survey with data on street widths or businesses’ opening times. Imagine if all the people who were busy with Pokemon Go used that, OpenStreetMap would be nigh perfect in terms of data.
CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto News@lemmy.world•Costco Increases Pay to Over $30 an Hour for Most Store WorkersEnglish7·5 months agoIf you read the actual article, there are two things that stand out:
The changes apply to employees at non-union locations.
and
Other benefits for non-union workers include an additional week of vacation after 30 years of employment and vacation for new employees during their first year.
So from my understanding you may very well be correct, instead of trying to block unions through negative reinforcement, they try to block them by rewarding you for not joining one.
She’s what one would generally refer to as a tankie and even refers to herself as extremist, so I do believe that is the appropriate term.
Apparently to some that’s the goal. I had a chat with a leftist a while back while the US election was in full swing and she was absolutely against the concept of voting for a lesser evil, since the worse things get, the more people will turn to leftist extremism, which is a win in her book. Suffice it to say, that talk made me anything but sympathetic of her view…

CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•looking for linux versions of games ?English8·7 months agoIn my experience not just sometimes, but rather commonly. It often feels like the native Linux version, if it is even available, gets far fewer bug fixes - not like I can blame them, considering the far lower amount of Linux players, but sometimes I wonder why they even bother with it in the first place if they don’t want to bother with focusing on it, with how good Proton is.
CatLikeLemming@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Technology@lemmy.world•U.S. officials urge Americans to use encrypted apps amid unprecedented cyberattackEnglish4·7 months agoNote that it doesn’t mean metadata is encrypted. They may not know what you sent, but they may very well know you message your mum twice a day and who your close friends are that you message often, that kinda stuff. There’s a good bit you can do with metadata about messages combined with the data they gather through other services.
My problem with that is mobile. If I want tasks, I’ll use a dedicated primarily mobile app, (e.g. Tasks.org) because if I’m checking a grocery list or tweaking my daily todo list while out of the house, I’m not gonna pull out my laptop lol
Of course it seems reasonable for more long-term plans which you don’t need to change day-to-day, but at that point I’d just end up with two to do lists/apps which is also a bother.
