Well I noticed a difference between duckduckgo and Ecosia, both taking results from Bing. Not sure if it's the language setting, or something else.

Warframe and grime.

The update coming to warframe mid October solves a lot of qol issues and should make it one of the bets mmorpg grind game.

What are you talking about. Your country isn't an example of all europe.

In France the prices are extremely low for pretty much unlimited sms.

In other countries too. There are however disparities between countries and their prices.

The drone backtracking is an issue where the drone is too high up from the ground.

If the drone is teleported close enough to the ground, it won't backtrack.

You are. It's much more.

It's the extreme optimisation event. Glitch your way through to get lower amount of time possible, and farm as many formas as possible, and other stuff.

It's a space infestation coming to the plains, with a lephantis brother as a boss.

And damn I optimized the s out it the last time. Stay on that specific rock, to with wisp... To spawn the boss faster to that spot. And farmed the crap out of it. I got 250 formas from there (+ ghoulf saw, zaw heads and exodia contagion)

If you don't want to read through all of this, here is a shortened version by chatgpt :

The author presents a thought-provoking perspective on the impact of Microsoft's approach to computing. They suggest that Microsoft's products tend to obscure the inner workings of computers, contributing to a sense of mystification among users. Error messages that lack meaningful explanations and a heavy reliance on graphical user interfaces are highlighted as factors that deter users from understanding the technology they use.

Moreover, the author argues that the Microsoft ecosystem discourages users from exploring alternatives and gaining a deeper understanding of computer systems. Vendor lock-in and a reluctance to delve into the underlying principles of software and technology are seen as barriers to users becoming more versatile and informed computer users.

In essence, the author contends that Microsoft's ecosystem fosters a perception of computer use as something magical and impenetrable, making it difficult to retrain users once they have adopted this mindset. They suggest that an alternative approach, emphasizing text-based communication with computers and exposing users to different options, could lead to a more informed and adaptable user base.

This viewpoint encourages us to consider the impact of user interfaces and software ecosystems on users' perceptions and abilities when it comes to technology. It underscores the importance of promoting digital literacy and encouraging users to explore and understand the technology they rely on.

I'm not that sure about 16gb for gaming nowadays. Games are starting to explode in ram and vram usage. With windows on the side and plenty of other apps in the background, I was pretty close to the limit while running a vm with 16gb of memory on a 32gb ram setup, while running warframe (The game was using 5-5.5gb of memory).

Tho running Linux, can reduce that memory usage.

You don't really need to upgrade. But for a new pc, 32gb is advised for anything gaming.

For other things like content creation or work with the computer other than basic computing, I don't really know. It would change depending on what someone needs to so with the computer.

I have no real idea, only suppositions :

(I'm not treating Ukraine as the enemy, this is a full supposition).

The real hard part is costs and time. If the soldiers pushed the front lines, and there is no risk of enemy attacks behind the line, there can be multiple things in the way :

The terrain may not always be good for fast travel. With difficult terrains or mud and water.

And because front lines aren't perfect, there is always the risk of enemy attack behind, destroying supplies.

Now why exactly Russia did not send supplies to their soldiers, no real idea. They only know what they chose to do.

Ukraine is huge, giant. Going up to the front lines takes time and money. And well I very much guess that Russia just sent soldiers without care, maybe even now they doing that. They underestimated Ukrakne's defenses and the support they get from other countries.

Good thing I can block them just from their post. Some Lemmy apps are cool.

(on Liftoff i can, on thunder I can't).

What I remember : Startpage has been bought by an advertising company. So who knows what they could do with it.

Not sure using Ecosia has any benefit if using ublock to block everything.
