The thing is, there’s a million different pasta shapes, and most of them are short. Yes, it will make pasta-passionate people sad, if you break spaghetti, because that makes them terrible at trapping sauce compared to the many other shapes.
But ultimately, it’s also a matter of: Why are you eating spaghetti-shaped pasta, if you don’t want it to be spaghetti-shaped?
I’m guessing, it’s this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fore_(golf)
Apparently, it’s like Smash Bros in the Ubisoft universe, except it’s a first-person shooter.
So, you got different factions from Far Cry, Splinter Cell etc. with which you can play…
“Dicke Nüsse” means “big nuts”, by the way.
Is it illegal to eat the interstitial fibers of grapefruits? I just cut them into rough slices with a knife and shove those wholesale into my mouth. 😅
I usually cut them near a window, with a fan blowing towards me. It’s not perfect, but anything to have less of the gas reach your face helps.
I’ve got some wasps living in the railing of my balcony. They don’t care that I’m sitting there at all…
The guy is the lead dev of the Budgie desktop environment. Budgie started out kind of reusing components from GNOME, but Strobl has been rather frustrated with GTK and the directions it took with GTK4, for various reasons: https://joshuastrobl.com/2021/09/14/building-an-alternative-ecosystem
(The disclaimer is important, some opinions on what alternative to use changed, but the frustrations with GTK remain.)
The idea for the when-part is that people will have electric cars at home, which can double as a big battery, or as the other guy already said, you can buy dedicated storage, too.
You could also hook these storages up to the grid, and then have an algorithm decide to sell to the grid when electricity is expensive, or to charge from the grid while electricity is cheap, possibly even taking the weather forecast into account.
Definitely still lots of details to figure out, but I expect things to head that way…
It’s often said that probably the biggest challenge with switching over all the cars and heating to renewables here in Germany, is going to be the transport of so much electricity to all the homes.
That’s what I also really like about the balkonkraftwerk, that it produces electricity right where it’s used.
.desktop files are a Linux/Unix thing. Basically, it’s a fancy shortcut, usually to an application, which allows specifying additional infos, like e.g. translated names.
In particular, the contents of the application menu are defined by just a folder filled with .desktop files.
Yeah, solid counterexample. Wikipedia and other Wikis have a clearly defined goal, i.e. collect factually correct information about a specific topic, which is also a goal shared by enough people to drive collaboration.
Another cool example is the Mutopia Project, which basically archives sheet music. Contributors can just pick a piece of music and transcribe that, and they kind of don’t even have to talk to anyone for the project as a whole to benefit.
But then there is lots of examples, like writing a new song, writing a new novel etc., where the goal is not clearly defined, where it’s difficult to collaborate, because what you contribute might not mesh well with what the others provide.
I think, it’s mainly a matter of the works to which Creative Commons is typically applied, being less suitable for collaboration. You might occasionally see remixes, but that’s mostly it.
In the case of open-source, collaboration is what elevates it, and often makes it better than paid-for software.
You rarely see Creative Commons works that outdo paid-for works in terms of objective quality. Heck, chances are that more collaboration happens in paid-for works, because they can hire an editor, a sound engineer etc…
That prices for photovoltaic are dropping rapidly:
LOL
GNOME 3 doesn’t have desktop icons, if that’s what you mean. And yeah, that version number sounds about right. They used to version it as "3.38”, but then instead of “3.40”, they decided to call that version “40” and continue from there.
KDE is very much the opposite of opinionated. It comes with a Windows-like layout by default, but you can do pretty much any layout you want with it. People rather complain that it has too many options.
I would definitely recommend giving it a try, or at least checking out some videos. It happens a lot that people who dislike GNOME, then try KDE and are completely flabbergasted why that’s not the default.
I would still imagine that has a very different psychological effect. Nobody wants to click a “pay”-button…
Probably a matter of not just Europe using d/m/y: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_date_formats_by_country#Usage_map
Here’s their FAQ answer for that: https://just.systems/man/en/what-are-the-idiosyncrasies-of-make-that-just-avoids.html
I imagine, there’s various smaller differences in how the recipes are defined, but yeah, this is the big one.
I find that Just feels a lot like just a collection of script files, with built-in error handling for argument parsing and during execution. And it also offers easier discovery of available tasks and how to use them.
Slowroll can alleviate that pain, if you’re fine with non-security updates being delayed by up to six weeks or so.
