The watermarks, y’all! That’s how we know and that’s why it’s bad.

Hyprland hyprland!!
Have fun, I can’t go back now ;)
I read the basic titles and I was like “oh yeah, of course, this is just like the ‘STOP DOING’ memes.” Then I read more.
If it is one, then this is a pretty sophisticated shitpost.
The difficulty seemed absurd to me, too, the first time I played the game. This time I began seeing the fun once I began discovering a few things the other day, TL;DR at the end:
Anyways, it’s still masochistic in nature. My best run came to an end abruptly and unfairly.
TL;DR: Be slow and cautious, play around in the first area to get better gear and understanding of the mechanics.
I jumped into Noita this past week. I had put about 5 hours in over a year ago, but I was intimidated by the systems and the initial difficulty. But I get it now 😭 The wandcrafting and fluid reactions are so fun now that I am more familiar with it all. I had a good run and I love the game now.
Played a few rounds of gunfight in Modern Warfare 2019. The official game has a ring 0 anticheat so Linux support with proton/wine is out of the equation. But there is a way (old dev build, offline-only and most maps don’t work).
Also played some Minecraft with a ship building mod. Here’s what I got so far, I’m going to sail the seven seas!
It seems mostly unfounded— internet says she supported some problematic people previously, that’s the extent of it. Her cartoons are pretty good about representation, I’d be surprised if she was transphobic. I had previously only heard of controversy about kinky art ¯_(ツ)_/¯
+1, also waiting for the solution. I’m still on Wayland, but I have to use driver 535 to avoid major corruption issues with xwayland. There’s still issues with that driver, but it’s at least usable for me.
Not trying to shill, but they’ve stepped up with open sourcing their kernel modules and implementing wayland explicit sync (though not implementing implicit sync continues to screw users until the stack is complete). Their driver situation is far better than it was in the past.
Great book. Very dystopian.
This has cultural significance beyond ai generated shitposting at least.
Sorry, overruled. You’re interesting.
What a 256 color palette does to a person 😔
I think GNU/Linux (What you’re refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.) is a great fit for non-technical people when they don’t have an established workflow on another OS. If their needs can’t easily be translated over, though, I think it’d turn users away.
I agree, it’s nice to ask somebody about their boundaries, and it can really make them feel more comfortable.
However, I do consider it the other person’s responsibility to establish the boundaries and uphold them; if I call them something they dislike, I’d hope they’d feel comfortable enough to tell me (in a kind way). That’s the kind of friendship I’d want anyways. And if I purposefully ignore that request or argue it, I think it’s very fair for that person to be more stern in communicating their boundary. In this case, “I don’t care that you use it as gender-neutral, I don’t want to be called ‘dude’.”
Good friends/people would respect your wishes, though. It’s your identity, at the end of the day.
I didn’t know that! (AM4 user here, blissfully ignorant of the newer chipsets and their changes, for the sake of my wallet, mostly)

I hate it when this happens while I’m driving 😩
Agreed. Windows’ HDR support is rough. It’s fine for gaming, but you can’t display SDR and HDR content together like MacOS. I think that’s why Apple holds a big part of the market for creatives.
Clickbaity, biased and misleading title.
The article actually claims that, on average, e-bikers have a higher volume of exercise per week compared to cyclists. (This includes both METs, a measure of metabolism, and duration.) Even this claim seems a bit shaky, though.
It wasn’t clear in the article how the studies categorized cyclists and e-bike users. I took a look at one of the linked studies and found that they categorized them like so:
A few issues I see:
Luckily, the study didn’t base it solely on “ownership”, so the many people with old bikes sitting dormant in their garage don’t count.
Also, in this study, cycling was given a constant 6.8 METs and e-biking, 5 METs. These are not constant activities; cyclists going uphill are likely going to be > 8 METS (the threshold for vigorous activity), and e-bikers using throttle-enabled bikes are likely far below 5 METs.
In fact, according to the other study, pedal assisted e-bikes don’t always break the threshold for moderate activity under low and moderate assist levels:
The first study assumes 4 METs as moderate activity and 8 METs as vigorous. 5 seems like a high estimate, then, since the second study showed that e-bikes with assist aren’t always at moderate intensity, let alone throttle.
Aside from the studies, the article itself mentioned that many cyclists take a lift to the top of trails. I enjoy mountain biking, and none of the trail systems near me have a lift. And a big reason I ride is for exercise, strength and endurance. Just me? Also, throttle e-bikes can damage dirt trails, they are completely banned at one of my local trail systems.
Anyways, this article comes from a website all about EVs and similar. And there’s an affiliate link at the bottom to buy e-bikes. It’s not a secret that they’re biased.
All of that said, e-bikes are a really great tool. I’m not against them at all! They make biking far more accessible to people who would otherwise have a hard time doing so. And they’re a great method of transportation, since they make it easier to travel farther than on regular bicycles and are more eco-friendly than cars and motorcycles.
I think this article just perpetrates the divide between cyclists and e-bikers. They’re both forms of exercise and transportation, and someone using pedal assist for themselves doesn’t change what the cyclist is doing. Do what’s best for you, for you.
