That's easy to explain. EGS managed to make everyone hate them just as it started. How do they expect to be profitable if they piss off the entire market?

There are other stores such as GoG that have actual users.

Can the average north Korean read though?

calcopiritus ,

Good old Russian propaganda.

You don't need to have wired across the room. You can put them through the wall like every other cable. If the wire tubes are not full, it isn't very complicated. I put my Ethernet wires in the wall.

Considering everyone's sperm is bathing in plastic rn, who knows lol.

Prices should go down with scale not up though.

There's initial investment on the initial servers (and the software), and afterwards it should be a linear increase of server costs per user, with some bumps along the way to interconnect those servers.

The cost also scales per content. Because that means more caching servers per user and bigger databases, and licenses.

So this service has less users and more content, it should be way more expensive. The only reason they are cheaper is because they don't pay those licenses.

The entire content of the wikipedia fits in a pen drive.

Streaming video is a lot more expensive than text and images.

I doubt Wikimedia streams even 0.1% of what netflix does.

Telnet? Banned. You now need the EUs approval to use networking software. The only apps that any EU users can use that uses the network interface are those whitelisted by the EU.

That's the only way that this is enforceable. And still pretty easy to defeat, or are they gonna Linux too? Since Linux comes with the source code, anyone could recompile it removing the restriction.

It's just absurd.

Criminal would just use the communication method that is encrypted, because it will be known as such. Just like nowadays everyone knows that if you want to pirate you use torrent. And if you don't wanna be tracked you use VPNs and tor.

This will hurt the dumbest of criminals and all the non-criminals.

Did shrinkflation not hit america? Everything in that photo is huge, and it's not like the car is small. Even while having a huge car as the background, the food looks huge.

I unironically do this. There was one update that wiped one guy's Documents/Downloads/Images/Videos. So I made my own and store my things there.

I guess it's racist to criticize the unelected government of china now.

Context: rule 1 is about xenophobia/racism.

Yep. Plenty of china criticism allowed in .ml

calcopiritus ,

Yeah that's not accurate. They have plenty of oligarchs. Only most of their population is enslaved.

Why not respond with the appropriate HTTP Code, and then also put the same code in the json?

calcopiritus ,

Not always possible. In Spain IPv6 adoption is at like 5%. There's literally no ISP that offers it. I don't even know how that 5% got it, maybe special deals.

It's easily the worst problem of Lemmy. Sometimes one guy has an issue with something and suddenly the whole thread is about that thing, as if everyone thought about it. No, you didn't think about it, you just read another person's comment and made another one instead of replying to it.

I never heard anyone complain about the term "hallucination" for AIs, but suddenly in this one thread there are 100 clonic comments instead of a single upvoted ones.

I get it, you don't like "hallucinate", just upvote the existing comment about it and move on. If you have anything to add, reply to that comment.

I don't know why this specific thing is so common on Lemmy though, I don't think it happened in reddit.

IIRC there is a quantum chess videogame that works like this. I don't remember the name though.

calcopiritus ,

Yeah, i know about 5d chess, but I'm pretty sure quantum chess also exists.

More lanes == less traffic is wrong due to induced demand. In an evacuation, however, the demand is already at its maximum. What you want is more throughput to get the people out.

Having less lanes won't make people choose going on train or bus instead. Chances are that the busses and trains are already full.

This picture shows the influence of the nuclei, not the nuclei themselves. The nuclei are much smaller. If you throw an electron at an atom, the nucleus will change that electron's direction even if it doesn't hit it, just by being close.

Headline days 25% of electricity. The article says 25% of energy. Journalism at its finest. Which one is it?

calcopiritus ,

If you mean lambdas like in python where you say lambda x: x+1, they are called closures in rust, try searching for that instead.

calcopiritus ,

Why have an async block spanning the whole function when you can mark the function as async? That's 1 less level of indentation. Also, this quite is unusable for rust. A single match statement inside a function inside an impl is already 4 levels of indentation.

calcopiritus ,

Well, of course you can have few indent levels by just not indenting, I don't think the readability loss is worth it though. If I had give up some indentation, I'd probably not indent the impl {} blocks.
