The EU already has most US foods banned, because their quality is utter shit and they're not suitable even for animal feed.

Italy's banking giant UniCredit challenges terms set by European regulator to cut its exposure to Russia, seeks ruling from the EU's General Court ( www.reuters.com ) Englisch

UniCredit said on Monday it was challenging the terms set by the European Central Bank (ECB) for the Italian bank to cut its exposure to Russia, and seeking a ruling from the European Union's General Court, as well as a freezing of the request in the meantime....

Banks in Latvia are unstable AF in general. Bad example.

It matters a lot when the country can't sustain its banking industry for decades. Also ABLV was closed in 2018, way before the war. So stop spreading dumb bull shit, ok?

Finland’s free contraception initiative reduces teen abortions by 66% ( www.optimistdaily.com ) Englisch

Finland’s multifaceted approach to preventing teenage abortions has proven highly effective, with a 66 percent reduction reported between 2000 and 2023. This large drop, owing to free contraception and obligatory sex education, serves as a model for public health programs....

Mandatory burqas is what America is missing.

I don't think they work as intended. Most middlemen are still Russian, thus this money circulates inside the economy propping it even further. That's why the Russian economy is on the rise and the German one is in decline.

Who doesn't use HDR, lol?

Why would you skip online login? It protects your laptop from being stolen, it syncs settings between devices, etc. Do you skip online logins for Android and iOS phones too? Of course you don't!

Linux support is a magnitude harder than Windows/Mac. Even Linus himself complained about that multiple times. If the Linux crowd wants to become serious about the desktop, then everything should be standardized. Userland, boot, APIs, everything. It shouldn't matter which distro the user is running, I should be able to compile once and run my app everywhere.

Aux ,

Your OLED will burn in any case. So, enjoy HDR while you can.

Are you trolling? Or completely ignorant?

You can start by running sudo apt install tesseract-ocr and then reading its docs.

It is much better to search using ElasticSearch or Sphinx. Grep is super slow, non indexed and can't do natural language full text searches. It's pretty much useless for any real world text search you'd want from OCRed content. And all these better tools are free and open source, so really a no brainer.

Then you get stuck in the middle of nowhere for 40 minutes. Not fun, Eurostar. Not fun at all!

Steam is full of shorter games with worse graphics made by indy devs. Guess what? No one gives a shit! Because no one needs crappy games from 1980-s.

Aux ,

The issue with UK services is that they all are fucking random and plenty of sections don't work. There are billions of logins, bugs and sometimes you just get redirected to some bloody nightmare portal from 1990-s. And EU citizens couldn't log in into HMRC portal for years after Brexit, what a fucking joke! And all they do is spend time removing jQuery, good fucking job!

This is data from 2020 https://www.statista.com/statistics/1356730/steam-indie-game-revenue-genre/ but I believe it's still pretty relevant.

In short, indie games are the games no one is playing. A tiny fraction of indies bring more than $200k, while AA and AAA bring in millions and hundreds of millions.

The idea that we need shitty games with piss poor graphics is just plain wrong. What we need are high res games to enjoy 4K experiences.

Aux ,

Games like Valheim and Rust are not some pixel art games which will run on a 2GB system with an integrated GPU, they're pretty much AA games with an AA level publisher behind them. Yes, there are some real exceptions, like Stardew Valley, but you can count them on your fingers. They don't make even a 1% of Steam catalogue. Thus my point still stands - no one cares about low end games.

Aux ,

The topic is about low end indie games specifically. Thus games, which started as indie, like Valheim or No Man's Sky don't fit the bill. The point is that no one gives a shit about low end games apart from a few niche fans. Everyone likes high end looking games with loads of stuff to do in them.

Aux ,

Nah, sorry, I'm not playing pixelated crap on my dual screen 4K set up. That was cool back in the 1990-s on my Sega Mega Drive, but I outgrew that a long time ago. Fuck, I'm old...

Aux ,

Sorry, but no.

Open source enterprise solutions are pretty much non-existent, thus it's never cheaper to go open source.

Aux ,

Usually when people are talking about web development in assembly they mean development back end applications.

I mean Power BI is an example in this thread. Or any software that requires an ISO certification. Or any industrial application like CAD. Basically any piece of software which cannot be used for a hobby doesn't have an open source alternative. And even some hobbies don't really have alternatives. I mean I would love to replace Fusion 360 with something open source, but FreeCAD is a joke.

If your Linux is not using 99% of RAM, then it's misconfigured.

Android is a true Linux.

Aux ,

Android and ChromeOS are more Linux than MacOS and iOS are a FreeBSD. Apple closed the source quite a while ago and they have their own fork which I bet is very far away from the original now.

Aux ,

FreeBSD is licenced under BSD licence, they don't have to do shit and they don't. Windows is also using a lot of BSD code and you'll never see the sources.

Aux ,

You can say the same about every distro. There's literally no difference between Android and Ubuntu from this perspective. Also that's how a lot of code feeds back into the kernel - it gets tested in the wild and if it's good and useful it gets PRd and merged back.

Aux ,

That's not how Linux OSes work.

Aux ,

User land is incompatible even between traditional Linux distros and they all do kernel mods to suit their needs, so yeah, Android is as much of a Linux as Ubuntu is.

Aux ,

Not true at all. Many distros like Alpine are not using GNU userland, yet you would consider them a proper Linux, right? And kernel changes in distros... Don't even get me started. Suffice to say that no one ships vanilla for decades.

Aux ,

Not sure what you're doing there, but it's pretty much every other command needs sudo here... Can't even install updates without it.

Not unless the only way to get back home is to change the wallpaper!

The problem is very simple - the majority of people are technically illiterate. Apple and Google saw the Windows XP security fiasco, looked at how many people use smart phones today and decided that giving users any rights is not worth the risk.

An African Student’s Murder Sheds Light on Russia’s Race Problem ( www.themoscowtimes.com ) Englisch

On the eve of the BRICS summit in South Africa last month, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov slammed the “colonial and racist manners” of “Western elites,” who exploit resource-rich countries to pursue goals that “do not reflect the aspirations of all mankind.” Russia, in contrast, stands for “strengthening”...

Putin has brainwashed Russians with hatred towards everyone and everything.

Not that long ago Russia had a lot of LGBT artists, like Shura, Boris Moiseyev, t.A.T.u. (which even went to Eurovision), as well as many acts from xUSSR countries like Verka Serduchka were super popular. Everyone is gone and gay propaganda is a crime.

Not that long ago the USSR was trying really hard to show the world they love Africans, loads studied (for free), lived, married, had successful carriers. Great examples are rapper N'PANS and TV presenter Elena Khanga. Khanga moved to YouTube, N'PANS went underground.

Not that long ago racism and bigotry was weird and unusual, today it's just the way of life.

And since the start of war, everyone who was against moved out to other countries.

That's exactly how it's done in English: ninety means 9*10, then you add two. The wrong language in the picture is Russian. Because the Russian word for ninety is an exception and doesn't follow the same rule as 80, 70, etc.

Aux ,

Ninety is a shortening of "nine ten". Eighty is a shortening of eight ten. Etc. All English numbers follow the same rule. Russian words don't follow such rule. Similar shortenings are only for 50, 60, 70 and 80. 20 and 30 are also shortenings in a similar fashion, but slightly different. But words for 40 and 90 are just completely random and don't follow any rules. The Russian 90 is actually a shortening of "nine hundred". Just like 900 which sounds similar, lol.
