It’s pay to win. And a whole lot of RNG.

Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do some many things come with their own wifi module1·5 hours agoMaybe for ease of setup. So you don’t have to somehow give if credentials to your own wifi.
Ubuntu. Simply because you use it as well. You will be the primary tech support. So something that you are familiar with is important.
If her router supports it I would set up a VPN and ssh on her computer so that you can help her. Maybe RDP or Sunshine/Moonlight as well.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Gaming@lemmy.world•Spooky co-op games for me and my girl?English2·6 hours agoWanted to recommend The Quarry and similar. But they’re not really two player either. You just take turns.
Baldur’s Gate 3 has spooky elements, especially in Act 2. But I wouldn’t classify it as a spooky game.
House of the Dead are horror games but more on the action corny side. But I really liked House of the Dead: Overkill.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Does a torrented non-zipped folder mean anything bad?English2·7 hours agoReminds me of the time I torrented a tar, which contained a hundred rar parts, which extracted to an iso, which extracted an installer to extract the actual (compressed) files.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do kids these days even have textbooks, or is it all on Chromebooks?7·7 hours agoIPads at my kids’ school. But they also get textbooks and paper sheets. So they get the worst of all worlds.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Hardware@lemmy.world•V40 Max: New gaming handheld costs just $54English2·7 hours agoGuess you are the crowd that’s being catered to with emulators that prioritise accuracy. So you should look for that label when selecting an emulator.
Reminds me of Tiny Toons for Gameboy. My brother would tell me he had a hack to get to the final cutscene. He’d do something magical and it’s start playing. And although I knew both the intro and outro of that game by heart I couldn’t figure out that he was just showing me the intro, because the game would restart when you pressed all (or most) buttons at the same time.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Technology@lemmy.ml•AI experts return from China stunned: The U.S. grid is so weak, the race may already be over4·9 hours agoJust an uneducated guess, but stabilising your own plant with your power needs might be much harder without the grid behind you.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Technology@lemmy.ml•AI experts return from China stunned: The U.S. grid is so weak, the race may already be over1·9 hours agoI thought it was just the plot of Fubar.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Have you watched masterpiece named "Happy"?1·12 hours agoHaven’t watched this show but the first thing that came to my mind was Shoot 'em Up. Superb action movie. If I recall correctly the first line of dialogue is the protagonist piercing a carrot through a bad guy’s throat and saying “eat more vegetables”.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Open email ... will it be a game changer?19·14 hours agoON A SIMILAR AND EQUALLY IMPORTANT TOPIC: Big tech isn’t blocking Matrix adoption or XMPP. Maybe when they’re a bit older, but they’re not currently scalable or robust enough to take on proprietary solutions.
Actually, they did. Back in the day all the big companies were using XMPP. For a short time it was glorious. And then little by little they started closing it off and/or making it incompatible until they stopped using it altogether.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do Lemmy users benefit from alt text in posts that contain photos?10·16 hours agoI sometimes have trouble reading the text in the image. Then I am glad to have the alt text.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Where do you ask for TV Show suggestion on Lemy?13·1 day ago!tipofmytongue@lemmy.world is for when you want to get the name of something.

Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Star Wars@lemmy.world•New Star Wars TV Show Bringing Beloved Video Game Character To Screen5·2 days agoFallen Order’s Cal Kestis will now be featured in LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy: Pieces of the Past. He will be voiced by Cameron Monaghan, the same actor who voices the character in the video games.
Björn Tantau@swg-empire.deto Games@lemmy.world•I just played "Slay the Princess" and it rocks, here's the trailerEnglish3·2 days agoNote, the DLC mentioned here is already available for free in the game. The trailer is over a year old.
Wear something identifying you as Canadian and people will treat you nicer. Though Cologne in general and Gamescom specifically should be very open minded to all cultures anyways.
Months old thread, but since you were left without an answer:
Yes, they could have switched to Trixie months ago. Changing to stable now that Trixie is released will let them somewhat automatically upgrade to Debian’s next stable version when it is released. That is why they used testing instead of Trixie, so that they would automatically get the new testing version on release.
But this is generally not recommended. It is recommended to only use the codenames to keep more control over when you upgrade.
