Technology@lemmy.world•WhatsApp is adding the ability to save contacts within the app independently from your smartphone’s address book.English
26·1 year agoIf this means I can deny WhatsApp access to my regular contacts and still have a decent user experience I’m all for it.

Technology@lemmy.world•Qualcomm abruptly cancels Snapdragon X Elite dev kit — refunds customers for mini PC, ends sales and support for the device immediatelyEnglish
44·1 year agoThe inherent flaw is Qualcomm actually having to properly support one of their chipsets directly to customers for once, something they’re apparently really bad at. This box has had some pretty bad press already, mostly due to the software being abysmal.
Overspark@feddit.nltoMovies and TV Shows@lemm.ee•What's your pet peeve when it comes to tropes? What bothers you when you see it in a show or a movie?
21·1 year agoPicking a lock with just one pick. That’s not how it works, you need one to apply a rotating force and another one to lift the individual pins. Sometimes shows even get it right in one season and then totally blow it in the next one.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•I have the weirdest aesthetic preferences
6·1 year agoFully agree!
None of them have anything to do with feminism though, except maybe #2.

Technology@lemmy.world•Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 needs 64GB of RAM for ideal performance — oddly, the game install size is only 30GBEnglish
4·1 year agoFS 2020 reportedly already used 2 PB of data as it’s base. Good luck downloading that!
It is absolutely fine to mix tabs and spaces in Python, as long as you are consistent about it. It’s not recommended though, as it’s easy to mess up if you’re not paying attention. Most IDE’s will convert tabs to spaces anyway so it’s a bit of a non-issue.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•So what are #FreeBSD folks doing for multi-node, high availability file systems? I looked at #Gluster, but that doesn't work. I'm starting to look at #minio, but it's an S3-oriented API.English
5·1 year agoObject storage (the S3 API stuff) is the most logical answer here, it’s much simpler and thus more reliable than solutions like Gluster, and the abstraction actually matches your use case. Otherwise something like an NFS share from a central fileserver works too.
But I agree with the other comment that you’re trying to do kubernetes on hard mode and most likely with a worse result.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Is there is any lemmy Android client that support notifications?
5·1 year agoThunder has experimental support, haven’t tried it yet though (says it costs extra battery)

Gaming@beehaw.org•Thoughts on Space Games, Part 1: Top-5 AAA Games
1·2 years agoThe EVE Online of today has very little to do with the game that came out 21 years ago. It’s been kept up to date very well, the graphics are really nice and the game has been made a lot better for new players. A new expansion just dropped so now it’s actually a pretty good time to try it out.
As for mining in peace: that’s totally doable if you know what you’re doing. The best advice would be to join a mining/building corporation as soon as possible and have them show you the ropes. The element of risk never goes completely away, and you should always be prepared to lose the ship you are flying, but the risks are very manageable, to the point where you should almost never lose a ship unless you’re actively taking more risk.

Games@sh.itjust.works•(Opinion piece) Hello, PC gaming here: Are the consoles OK? With sales dropping and confidence declining, how close are we to the end of consoles as we know them?English
152·2 years agoDon’t forget that games are significantly cheaper on PC, especially if you wait for the first sale (which’ll come much quicker on PC). The upfront cost is indeed higher, but depending on how many games you buy you’ll probably recoup that cost within one console generation.

Firefox@lemmy.ml•What are some good Firefox extenstions that work on mobile?

Firefox@lemmy.ml•What are some good Firefox extenstions that work on mobile?
6·2 years agoConsent-O-Matic is a massive timesaver and works great on mobile. Not sure if you can install it directly these days, I use my own collection.

Games@lemmy.world•The First Dune Game 32 Years Later: An LGR RetrospectiveEnglish
6·2 years agoAbsolutely love this game. Played it from beginning to end on the PC multiple times over the decades. The original floppy version that is, not the poncy CD version he’s using! 😂
btop has GPU stats in recent versions.

Linux@lemmy.ml•What are the default permissions for / and /boot on Arch?
31·2 years agoGood on you for getting it fixed. One of the reasons Linux is a great OS in my opinion is that everything is in the file system and not in some arcane hidden thing. So every problem is solvable without a reinstall if you’re motivated enough to figure it out.
Not sure what you have against minimum wage, it works well in other countries (I’m from the Netherlands). Obviously it doesn’t solve everything by itself, but it’s definitely a valuable part of a range of measures to treat people fairly. It’s a fantasy that everyone can be educated to a level above minimum wage.


Hell no, Mad Max was way more fun than it had any right to be. I’ll agree that on paper it didn’t look like anything special, with mechanics we’d seen lots of times in other games, but in practice everything came together as much more than the sum of it’s parts.
