  • Aufnahmefähiger dank Mittagsschlaf

    Jump

  • Ja, finde ich auch wild. Abgesehen davon, dass das Ergebnis jeglicher Intuition widerspricht, muss es doch auch schon unzählige Studien geben, dass auch generell schon eine Pause zur Erholung beiträgt (wie man sie in der Schule z.B. macht).Und ein Nickerchen ist mindestens eine sehr intensive Pause, von allem was so auf das Gehirn feuert.

  • AI Slopageddon and the OSS Maintainers

  • Really my biggest frustration is that it isn't transparent what's generated and what's not. If a human wrote the code, then I want to teach them, especially if there's glaring logic issues in the code.

    But at the same time, the most likely cause for glaring logic issues, is if they generated the code. And then it's just a complete fucking waste of my time to try to teach them.

  • Window control frustrations on Fedora/Plasma (full screen window)

    Jump

  • Can't easily test this, but it might be possible to set the game itself to "Full Screen (Windowed)" and then tell Plasma to fullscreen the window. You can try this by launching the game and then pressing Alt+F3 to bring up the window menu. In there, you can fullscreen it through Plasma. You can also set a keyboard shortcut for this (I use Meta+F11).

  • 0.34 “Doomed Geometries”

    Jump

  • The new doom system is kind of cool. When I got doomed with claustrophobia, I had to switch up my play style quite a bit for 1½ dungeon floors. Which is long enough that it's worth developing your character somewhat differently to help deal with that.

    Obviously, you still want to avoid being doomed, and it isn't too hard to do that so far, at least in the dungeon, but as a form of punishment, it is quite interesting.Might be worth throwing out the draining system and giving those monsters doom instead, as draining was never too interesting...

  • I figured, I'd get one of those standard issue succulents, because they're supposed to be easy to care for, and now it decided to grow a 30 cm stalk, when the rest of the plant is just 5 cm tall.

    Like, what the hell, dude. Am I supposed to cut it off? I don't even know what kind of succulent it is, so I can't look it up either. I've just been letting it grow and hoping that it doesn't entwine my whole place. 🫠

  • Why is Debian always left out of the distro recommendations?

    Jump

  • Also has to be said that KDE on those slower-moving distros is actually buggier than on up-to-date distros. I have to use Kubuntu LTS at work and it has so many more glitches and crashes compared to openSUSE Tumbleweed and NixOS on my personal laptop.

  • Overwatch 2 Is Just 'Overwatch' Again And Five New Heroes Arrive Next Week

  • Well, there might've been some change that made it even more like the original, which could've prompted such a title either way...

  • Yet Another Video Player With Less Controls

    Jump

  • A few years ago, I found Kaffeine and was so surprised that I never saw a video player before with controls in a collapsible sidebar.

    Old screenshot, but this is what it looks like when a video is playing:

    It seems like a rather obvious idea, but I guess, it doesn't get copied much, because most video players don't have a ton of controls to begin with...

  • First or last, never in-between

    Jump

  • Nope. OpenOffice was Sun Microsystems originally. Then Oracle bought Sun Microsystems. Then the OpenOffice devs decided to continue developing under the LibreOffice name. And then Oracle donated the practically-dead OpenOffice project to the Apache Foundation.

  • Ah, you mean that the ARD Mediathek uses Google Firebase, I guess?

    At least, I found this in their privacy policy:

    Für das ARD-Konto verwenden wir den Authentifikationsservice Firebase Auth. Dieser Service wird von Google auf Servern außerhalb der EU betrieben und durch die europäischen Standardvertragsklauseln geschützt.

    On the plus-side, the ARD Mediathek supports RSS feeds for now, unlike seemingly all the other web portals of our state-funded media.

  • China verbietet versenkbare Auto-Türgriffe aus Sicherheitsgründen

    Jump

  • Ich habe auch sehr lange auf, naja, das Auto geschaut. 😅Aber es geht wohl um den Typ, der seine Arme nach oben reißt.

    Bzw. eben dann um Flügeltüren, die so nach oben aufgehen.

  • Warum Wien seine Parkplätze gegen Grünflächen tauscht

    Jump

  • Zum einen soll der Beton aufgebrochen und in kühlende Grünflächen verwandelt werden. Zum anderen hofft man, dass dadurch mehr Menschen auf alternative Verkehrsmittel umsteigen.

    Finde auch immer, dass das theoretisch unfassbar offensichtlich sein sollte. Alle Leute wollen immer raus in's Grüne und an die frische Luft. Aber hat mich letztens doch auch nochmal kalt erwischt, wie viel ätzender es jetzt ist, zum Einkaufen zu laufen, seit eine Umgehungsstraße blockiert ist und deshalb wesentlich mehr Autos durch die Straßen drücken...

  • The everlasting Cookie Consent at PC Gamer

    Jump

  • Well, there was an effort to solve it on a technological level, via the Do Not Track header (DNT). The idea was that when users actively signal they don't want to be tracked, then even in weaker jurisdictions, you can't justify doing it anyways.

    But Google and Facebook said outright that they would not honor DNT, which meant virtually no webpages could honor it, since Google Analytics and the Facebook Like-button were omnipresent on the web at that point.And then Microsoft killed it off for good by enabling it by default in Internet Explorer. That meant the DNT header did not anymore necessarily represent a user actively choosing to not be tracked, so it became meaningless in court.

    Well, and after that had failed, the EU came about with the GDPR to solve it with laws.But here it also needs to be said that a cookie banner is effectively only required, if you implement tracking.[^1]But of course, the ad industry did not want webpage owners to realize they could avoid needing a cookie banner by removing ads or going for non-tracking ads, so they spread a whole bunch of FUD.

    And now we're here, with cookie banners virtually everywhere, which are often not even GDPR-compliant either (like the PC Gamer cookie banner here), since it's supposed to be just as easy to decline, as it is to accept. If it is not, then that's not legally consent, because consent has to be freely given.

    TL;DR: Ad industry bad.

    [^1]: Cookie banners are only ever relevant for personal data (because the GDPR is). And you don't either need them when the user has implicitly given their consent, for example when they put something into their shopping cart, then they obviously consent to you storing their shopping cart contents for the purpose of purchasing those items.

    Jump

  • There is also pre-made blocklists for uBlock Origin for Cookie Banners, which you judt have to turn on.

    Combine with e.g. Cookie Autodelete to automatically remove cookies, and it's effectively as if you declined.

  • Gibt's für das Feature eigentlich eine funktionale Begründung? Also ist das total toll für Aerodynamik, oder irgendwie als Pseudo-Diebstahlschutz gedacht?

    Wirkt eben einfach nur wie unnötiger Schnickschnack, der unnötig den Preis des Autos nach oben treibt, und wie noch etwas, was kaputt gehen kann.
