No, it doesn't.

The magic effect is on the triggering of the process to start to develop empathy. Forcefully. The empathy itself is yours, even after the event. And the magic being. Lets see if they like having a conscience. Does not get cancelled. The event does.

I did not state a temporary duration for the effect of the outcome of the process. There is no temporary clause on that. The time frame is established for the duration of the process.

And what is the down side on the first part of your remark?

The event lasts one year. And it is gradual. It is not a snap of a finger and people become highly empathic. Everyone else will have a more accelerated growth, granted, but I'll be forced to grow in tandem.

If things improve around you, you're benefitted yourself. Pay attention.

And there is no temporary clause in what I stated.

People undergo the process during the lenght of a year. The outcome permanence is not dependent of that window of time.

Okay, let's try this.

Every single human being, gradually, develops empathy and awareness to how their choices affects themselves and others.

This is to happen over a period of a year and will not lead people to despair but to understand the poor choices they have made throughout their lives and lead them to live better lives, with no malice arbored towards others and themselves.

This effect will include the granter of this wish.

You're describing the same system behind Wero and MBWay. We can just use cellphone numbers to move money from account to account, regardless of the banks at each end of the transaction.

This is definitely Mythbusters territory now.

The first thing coming to mind would be setting up an automatic pressure release valve. I've seen those used to do pressure tests on pipes. It would facilitate making small increments to the maximum pressure admitted.

For all we know, the tank may very well rupture when put to less than maximum normal service pressure

The eEU is supposed to be one, itself. And even if it fails Wero and MBWay are growing, which are direct money transfer systems.

[–] qyron@sopuli.xyz 7 points 1 week ago

Mythbusters would be proud.

It has its moments.

I would use it to test how much destruction it could unleash. Maybe bury it in a pile of sand or in ground. Set a long line to. Start it. Overpressure it. Wait.

But completely agree. It is unsafe. Do not use it.

Let the Digital Euro become a thing. It will wreck havoc on the current payment ecosystem.

And the Digital Euro is not a crypto. It will be a digital currency, backed by the ECB, at a one to one exchange rate with standard euro currency.

When I was 14, "Zombie", by the Cranberries, was the music of the year.

I still go back occasionally but there's a lot more to listen. And I've discovered other genres since then.

Euro pallets I'm aware that are usually pressure treated to prevent rot. I know some are not treated at all.

But it is simply difficult to get pallets where I live lately. Unless they are completely broken, businesses don't discard it (which is not bad by itself; less waste) but they won't even sell them.

 

I have a small plot of land where a few old trees exist.

For what I could gather, these are heirloom trees no longer commercially available, probably even local varieties: one pear (possibly two), one apricot, one peach and one cherry tree.

I would like to reproduce these trees without the need to use root stock.

Talking with arborists always returned the same kind of answer: not commercially viable, too long to obtain fruiting trees and even an argument that the new trees would become "wild" and never bear fruit or only bear unedible fruit. This one I find particularly wild...

Does anyone have any sort of experience trying this? Can anyone recommend a technique?

I've read about a technique that recommends wrapping branches in cloth, with a lump of soil in contact with the wood to promote rooting but the trees I want to prioritize are not eligible for it as they are extremely old, with very thin and frail branches.

Are there any others you would recommend or suggest?

 

Besides Libre Office, what other programs/solutions exist in the Linux world for writers?

(Please, don't suggest VIM. After all the memes and comments I've read, I've come to dread it).

I like writing but the standard Writer tends to send me in a constant formatting spree.

I want to get back to writing regularly and something that could help me stay focused and somewhat organized would be nice.

 

It's friday, so lets try to end the week in a positive note with a laugh.

My own: got the first compliment of my life after a locker room raid.

I was told I was pretty easy on the eye with no top on, with a smile and a wink to boot, after a few minutes of playing the toss the bundle around game.

 

12 a 15 mil para fazer a conversão é uma bela maquia mas poder converter um carro que já é nosso e que provavelmente até gostamos parece muito bom.

Quando a conversão a GPL começou a ser uma coisa, era horrivelmente dispendiosa mas quem a fez dizia que compensava o custo rapidamente.

Porque não isto?

Alguém se lembra do leite escolar, em pacote com essa específica designação, em vez de marca comercial?

Porque terá acabado essa designação?

Partilhem as vossas curiosidades e as vossas respostas para solucionar alguma se a tiverem.

E antes que alguém pergunte: ninguém sabe onde se encontra o vídeo de batatada no Batatoon.

 

And what do you recommend to hang on walls, for decorative purposes, besides family photos?

Mine are blank and barren, an empty canvas for the maniacal decorator in me, after carefully negotiated with the family.

 

A few years ago, almost out of despair, I moved away from Debian in order to be able to play a few games natively.

On those days, the main concern with running games on Debian came mostly from unavailable dependencies or older, incompatible versions.

Fast forward today, returning to Debian, all installers from GOG run smoothly, with no error, but many games report errors on launching.

So, as per the title, what crazy voodoo magic is cast upon Debian to create Ubuntu, Mint and others, making those derivatives gaming-capable but their base distro not?

Can someone enlighten me on this, please?

Out of many games I tried, I managed to run three: Kingdom Rush and the Frontiers sequel and Martial Law.

Other titles failed miserably, including Desperados, Eschalon and even Stardew Valley.

Because it's useful/required info:

system

  • AMD Athlon II x2 250
  • 8GB RAM
  • GeForce G210

It's a very reliable work horse, with maxed out memory. The GPU proprietary drivers are no longer available; running nouveau.

When launching from the console, I get this report (example from Stardew Valley):

start.sh: 7: Bad substitution

start.sh: 9: source: not found

start.sh: 12: get_gameinfo: not found

start.sh: 13: get_gameinfo: not found

start.sh: 14: get_gameinfo: not found

start.sh: 29: define_option: not found

start.sh: 32: standard_options: not found

 

At the bare minimum, as "Sir".

As I'm about to start renewing and expanding the computer fleet in my house I decided I want to have a machine solely for my personal use, where I can use some solutions no one else will feel comfortable with in the house.

I've been wanting to try window managers for a while but after researching on it for a bit I'm none the wiser on which to choose.

There are a few distros out there that already deliver this kind of experience but I want to use the opportunity to learn and start from a stock Debian and build from there to where I want to get to.

I'm fully capable of setting up my computers as is but I'm aware WMs require a bit more involvement, so having at least good documentation is a must.

I'm also not averse to learn some coding, even more when considering I want to have a fully costumized conky, but I've never coded before.

The machine will be used essentially for writing, web surfing and email and, if possible, running Stardew Valley.

Any advice will be welcome.

Thanks in advance.
