  • Again with this bullshit.

    “As it comes to, particularly the creators out there, look, our view is, a lot of them have gone from hobbyists to professionals. And it’s part of our job to make sure they can do that and they do get paid and they see the monetary rewards if they make awesome content,” Howard said.

    This is such horseshit. This isn’t about “making sure that they get paid” this is about Bethesda getting a cut of those profits, nothing more nothing less. The way modding is right now is perfect, at least from a user’s perspective. You get everything for free but if you can afford it and want to then you can donate to the creator.

    There’s no need for a paid system because that excludes people who can’t afford to pay for the stuff. They are already excluded from official content because everything comes as a paid dlc nowadays and now you also want to exclude them from modding?

    I think this will only hurt the modding community and the only ones really profiting from this are the corporations.





  • I looked into it and tried it myself just today. For the most part it’s fine but you’ll have to be prepared to do some tinkering here and there. Most of the games I wanted to play are listed on proton as works but with some issues.

    I set up popOS yesterday and tried to install satisfactory today via steam but it wouldn’t let me and when I filtered my games lost for Linux it shrank down to a very small list. Iirc it was listed on proton as gold or even platinum so there must be a way to get satisfactory to run but I honestly couldn’t be asked today so I set up dual boot and went back to windows for now.

    I think that’s the way to got for a newbie. Set up dual boot and whenever you have the time & patience to try to get something to work on Linux go for it but when you just want to relax and play some games (or multiplayer) boot up windows.

    I think Linux for everyday use is just fine even though popOS could use some UX designers.

  • No, it wouldn’t be the same. Doesn’t necessarily mean bad though, the format is still great. You’re right though, it would probably be some really young YouTubers so they can appeal to a young audience, as if they only watched people as old as them. I think you need at least one person with a lot of experience in SFX or a similar field


  • We really need the mythbusters back :(

    I was curious so I did a little bit of research(as in duckduckgo was useless so I asked chatgpt). While stomach acid loses its acidity fairly quickly after death how quickly it happens depends on various environmental factors. Regardless, popcorn kernels apparently pop between 175-200°C(400F). But bodies are cremated between 760-982°C(1400-1800F). So depending on how quickly those temperatures are reached it’s probably more likely that any remaining kernels would just burn.

    There’s a chance though. We need some practical experiments.



  • Yeah, for me it always helped to think about what I was actually doing with my phone and I quickly realized that I really have not mich use for the most expensive phones. A camera like I’d get on the new iPhone for example would be nice but that alone isn’t worth paying almost 1k more. And aside from camera I don’t think there’s much difference for the average user when you compare a high end and a low to mid-range phone.



  • I need a new phone soon, can’t really wait until the EU regulations force companies to build them with removable batteries. I need to look more into Fairphone, hope that’s decent. Last review I read made me concerned about battery life, I really don’t like charging my phone every day either. Or having to carry a power bank with me.

    I don’t think there’s anything on the market that comes even close to the modularity aria had promised. Moto z had some mods but they dropped that very quickly unfortunately.
