  • Fair point :)

  • Not necessarily, steam includes a windows compatibility layer making many windows games playable on Linux and that's how most steam deck games run. On stream deck specifically the battery life and performance is often better under this translation layer than installing windows and running them natively.

    Edit: Just skimmed the article, this is exactly what it's about.

  • Trump Commands War Department to Test Nuclear Weapons

  • President of peace.

  • What is “olive” in your language?

  • Oliv in Swedish.

  • Australia, boost mobile yearly prepaid plan. 365GB for 365 days costing $365 AUD ($200 EUR, $220 USD). So $1 a day. Unlimited local calls, no overseas calls or roaming.

  • I would say OLED, though I had an old tv from 2017 that showed significant burn in after 4-5 years of usage. Anything that was red had a permanent shadow like the Netflix logo and some tv channel logos. As someone with hearing loss I also always have subtitles on which causes shadows there too.

    Now it's apparently much better nowadays, still happens with excessive usage and I actually ended up buying an LCD tv this time. I do miss the OLED razor sharp contrast though.

    Ed i: I just checked my pixel 5 phone with an OLED screen, it does indeed also have burn in on the top row when I put a red or green picture full screen. I wouldn't notice it unless I really looked though.

    What's your sleep schedule like?

    Jump

  • I'm 44 and I think it's an age thing. I struggle to sleep for more than 8 hours. I wake up naturally around 6-7am and go to bed around 23:00.

  • People have it tough and I think they have gotten full of hate and greed. Evil people feed on hate and greed.

  • Non americans of lemmy, would you support a ban on american social media on your country?

  • They said "especially", not "only". your question is still partly valid why he would be "more ok" with other types of governmental structures.

  • I saw it too, and if you watch tizzyent's video on TikTok you can see it too.

  • Donald Trump says TikTok "worthless," might not save it after all

    Jump

  • I think it's a threat to ensure that TikTok does what he says. Lots of reports (that I as an Australian can't verify before it works for me) of searches for Trump incriminating videos are returning no results since it came back. It feels like there were conditions on not banning TikTok.

  • What is a food that you used to dislike but now enjoy?

    Jump

  • Avocado, young me thought it was a Kiwi so it might just have been the surprise of how different it was.

  • What are the pros/cons of your 2FA app?

    Jump

  • I'm using pass, the Unix standard password manager. While the original application is just a. shell script, gpg and git, it seems to have evolved more into a standard structure of encrypted files that any applications can use.

    On UNIX I use gopass, on my phone I use Password store together with open keychain.

    Benefits: completely self hosted, well known and robust technology, easy for developers to make applications or even just read the files youself

    Cons: Need to setup and maintain gpg keys. Applications I've used so far seem geared to more technical people. Setting up a new device requires copying gpg keys or generating new ones and add the public key to your vault. Last I checked, no viable IOS client.

    Depending on your view this can be either pro or con, but you can store your 2fa and password in the same repo, all protected by your gpg keys.

  • How decentralized is Bluesky really?

    Jump

  • I tried to look this up but I couldn't find much. The "worst" I found was this:

    Some users have expressed concerns about the platform's moderation practices, suggesting that the community's emphasis on inclusivity and respect may lead to over-sensitivity, where even minor disagreements or differing opinions are met with significant backlash. This environment can create a perception of excessive policing of content, potentially discouraging open dialogue.

    Where are you reading that people are saying that it's worse than twitter? Is it right wing people that are saying that because they put emphasis on inclusivity and respect?

  • Bernie Sanders: “Netanyahu Prefers to Have Donald Trump in Office”

  • Tens of billions is technically correct since in the last year US spent about 2 tens of billions, I.e. $20 billion, or about 2.5% of the annual military budget on Israel.

  • The 2024 presidential election will be historic no matter who wins

    Jump

  • Could also be the first women president vs 4th worst president of all time.

    edit: actually shared 3rd worst, shares with Franklin Pierce

  • Tim Walz defiantly defends trans people from Republicans’ “demonizing” attacks

    Jump

  • While still to the right of center of the political compass, I do really like how much closer to the center Walz is than the other and previous candidates.

  • TIL that 1,300 children are still separated from their parents from the Trump era family separation policy

    Jump

  • Not to defend them too much and I have to admit that I don't know much about the details which bills were priorities during the 4 months that Obama has house, senate and Presidency.

    What I did read a while back was that Obama didn't know how long his supermajority would last and some of the things he wanted he wanted done but couldn't once he lost the house.
