I've been playing LoL since a long time - practically since my friends etc. started it in 2009. I was on windows back then and moved slowly and slowly to Linux via dual boot. These days I only used windows for gaming and Linux (Ubuntu) for everything else.

While back then, stuff like FLOSS and co. wasn't that important to me - these days I appreciate it much more - and I like to have a computer which just doesn't annoy me with bloat and doesn't do stuff I don't want it to do.

After hearing about the steam deck stuff recently I gave gaming on Linux a try. I just follow the few simple steps outlined in online guides. It was pretty easy to install steam and league of legends. I even played a few very old games on steam - games which I didn't play all the time because I wouldn't boot up windows just for them.

I did decrease the LoL graphics a bit - as my laptop is a bit older. But seriously... League of Legends was working! It was working flawlessly! 🤩 I didn't see any crashes or stuff like that. I played a few games and realised, that I really didn't need to go back to windows anymore.

I'm migrating to a new laptop with better specs soon - and It'll be my first laptop in 1.5 decades that will not have dual boot. 😇 If I ever need windows again I'll either use the dual boot on my old laptop or simply run a VM for such rare cases. But even things like MS Teams work in the browser, so no need for Windows unless it's MS Office - which I never needed yet.

Just wanted to share my recent personal experience 😃

[EU-Petition] Tax the Rich (www.tax-the-rich.eu)

Da eine EU weite Vermögenssteuer sehr sinnvoll wäre, um die Probleme zu vermeiden, die es bei der Vermögenssteuer gab, welche nur in Frankreich war (und dann wieder zurückgedreht wurde).

Auf EU Ebene finde ich sowas sinnvoller und effektiver als auf DE Ebene. Bei 1 Mio Unterschriften muss die EU Kommission dazu handeln.

Edit: Zählung der Unterschriften findet ihr hier. (danke an [email protected])

AfD alleine regierend halte ich für sehr unwahrscheinlich. Aber wenn dann CxU/AfD.

Ich werde ernsthaft über emigrieren nachdenken und überlegen wohin und wie. An demos teilnehmen sowieso.

Think about it. Isn't light+eyes and ears+sound just the same in terms of their "influence at a distance"? We don't feel that as abnormal or magic - simply because we've sensors for them and are used to it. But physically speaking light and magnetism are based on electromagnetic forces.

While the idea and visualisation is indeed good, there is an error in the visualization.

Namely, the meaning of "->" is inconsistent. IMO it should be the return value of the function call (like in reverse), but for at least pop, the visualization shows the array instead of the array + return value.

For pop the return value isn't the array itself, but the popped value: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/pop

The visualisation could be improved by clarifying, that the array after the function call is visualised. And using -> isn't the best option IMO, because people expect the right side to contain the return value.

Ich hatte nicht gedacht, dass ich Mal den Tag miterlebe, wo Wettermoderator*en angegriffen werden. Ich meine.... die berichten ja einfach das Wetter. Das WETTER. DAS unkritischte Thema überhaupt... würde man meinen....

A very useful entry point written in many languages to show what the good effects of the EU and co. are. Especially good when talking to doubters in the more nationalistic political landscape recently in Europe.

Irgendwie finde ich dieses neue Format mit der Gans und dessen typischen Einschüchterungsgeste sehr unterhaltsam

I've yet to see any single new law proposal, that actually tackles this problem rather than misusing it's emotional trigger to get acceptance for surveillance and control

Noise-Cancelling In-ear Kopfhörer. Als jemand mit etwas Hochsensibilität (bin leicht zu überstimulieren via Sound uns Licht etc.) merkte ich erst mich solchen Kopfhörern, wie laut es echt in Städten ist und wie beruhigter ich nun endlich gehen kann. Ziemlich schade und nervig, dass Laute Autos so normalisiert und "unvermeidbar" sind.

Dazu noch: Persönliches Wissensmanagement mit Obsidian.md (https://obsidian.md). Seitdem ich das habe, habe ich nicht mehr das Gefühl Information zu verlieren (die ich längerfristig brauche) und habe auch keine Angst, dass irgendeinw Firma einen Lock in macht (Evernote, Reddit etc...)

Oh, I have two good ones:

  1. Nuclear power causes less deaths (per energy unit produced) than wind (source)

  2. You get less radiation when living near a nuclear power plant, than if that nuclear plant hadn't been there.

To explain the second: A major misconception is, that nuclear power plants are dangerous due to their radiation. No they aren't. The effect of radiation from the rocks in the ground and the surroundings is on average 50x more than what you get from the nuclear power plant and it's fuel cells. (source). Our body is very well capable of dealing with the constant background radiation all the time (e.g. DNA repairs). Near a power plant, the massive amounts of isolation and concrete will inhibit any background radiation coming from rocks from that direction to you. This means, that you'll actually get slightly less radiation, because the nuclear plant is there.

The EU AI Act would require the company to disclose details of its training methods and data sources.

If we're not going to make this apply to AI companies, which have overporportionate power already, then what else is there to talk about?

Living near a nuclear plant.

Little do they know, that they get more than 50x more radiation effect from the natural surroundings and the rocks in earth than from the nuclear plant 🤭 And our body is really capable of dealing with that since the beginning of our evolution (DNA repairs and co).

here is a chart showing radiation intensities for various sources of radiation

Ich kann deine Entscheidung zwar nachvollziehen, aber ich persönlich habe dort zb andere Prioritäten. Für mich ist die Größe und Diversität der Teilnehmenden in einer solchen community wichtig, damit die Diskussionen interessant und tatsächlich besser sind.

Und aktuell befürchte ich, dass die Diversität hier auf Lemmy noch ziemlich gering ist.
