  • It’s “Chornobyl”, btw. Chernobyl is the russian name.

  • Permanently Deleted

  • 100% agree with every single word.

    I also have noticed that the life vision that social media inspires is extremely sterile and empty on itself. People more and more constantly wear headphones to hide from reality, dislike any kind of smells and even the tiniest noises, always trying to hide from those. And simply do not stand being disconnected for a minute.

  • Yeah, having ability to make installation medium smaller by stripping away unused hi-res textures would be a really nice product feature.

    I just a bit skeptical with having an old game requiring exponential increase hardware requirements with improvements limited just for some visuals. On the other hand, it could be WarCraft 3: Reforged situation, so, I guess now it is more of a “there is always space for improvement” situation.

  • We are talking old game remake lol

  • Staying with the original also for the performance reasons: UE5 makes it really hungry for resources, while original runs smooth and makes my computer not even turn on active cooling.

  • You are not in any way. I was into tech since I was a toddler, and the feeling I have right now sucks. Though, I think it is not about tech, but about things happening in the world around. The tech is just a symptom of majority people being natural morons.

  • Having a tiny bit of slow-work time at an office, after I got almost burned out under unrealistic deadlines pressure.

    Hoping it’ll get better for you!

  • My take: Steam Deck is much better, just taking a terrible experience I've been having with ASUS laptop build, and how actually well-built the Steam Deck is.

    My story is: I bought an LCD with 64 GB storage and upgraded it to 1TB, and made a few fixes already to the buttons (too hard of a player xD). And during disassembly, I was extremely happy with how it was built, because it is really simple to maintain, disassemble/assemble. Like it was actually built to last ;)

  • I’d say we are already far past the point. It’s just that that most people haven’t noticed it yet, and it is that late for that.

  • I think there is quite a bit of rational thought in the statements. Though, it is definitely clear the person was either emotional, or was trying to make you emotional (and apparently succeeded) :)

    I 100% think that without support of government, such boycott or switch in choice priorities might be having some risks, especially in high-tech markets, where Europe is obviously behind. Though, the statement about taxes clearly incorrect, because decreasing taxes would straight lower ability of EMEA area to actually make the investment at all, especially in circumstances, when countries have to put huge fractions of their GDP into militarization on extremely short notice and with deadline set to “three years ago”.

    Taking that into account, I think that was just a troll account, or not too intelligent person being fed a pile of disinformation. Regardless of what it is: it is the wisest to ignore opinions of such people, they are simply not worth the wasted energy :)

  • Ale ładna rakieta

  • It is really sad to admit that for me LinkedIn actually was useful: even though I was contacted by spammy recruiters, the matching ones were there too.

    I wish other services were more popular in Europe, example being https://djinni.co/ — an anonymous job/candidate board built in Ukraine. I really liked the service in the past, though EU-based companies usually do not pos jobs there…

  • Recharging

  • Darn, you've just explained half of my life

    1. Mpk zachęca do przesiadki z auta do tramwaju, jednak podnosząc cenę biletów to jest nieskuteczne, ponieważ przejazd autem, nawet wynajętym czesto wychodzi taniej.

    Dodam jeszcze: czasami samochodem do biura (gdzie często już jest przestrzeń parkingowa) jechać jest szybciej, a to często jest nawet ważniejszą zaletą osobówki. Bo dla mnie czasami (mieszkam w Krakowie) kusi pojechać samochodem z taka różnica: 40-50 minut za 6 zł w pełnym tramwaju na stojąco vs 15-20 minut za 2.5-3zł samemu w aucie w wygodnym foteliku. Jasne, że w Krakowie mam Kartę Krakowską, i kupuję sobie miesięczny bilet, ale ostatnio podnieśli właśnie tę cenę tylko dla mieszkańców. Którzy i tak płacą podatki tutaj, z których MPK jest dofinansowane, w czym trochę brakuje sensu.

  • If you haven’t set a password before, then it should be the default one: empty. Then, to use sudo you will need to set one by using passwd command.

    In case if the password was set in the past: the only way would be to run factory reset, or restore from image.
