@rlier23 i did some thinking and you could consider getting a AM5 motherboard and CPU to be more future proof depending on the price compared to the AM4 build
I'm going to be adding some improvements to God's Disdain soon, such as the ability to zoom in on the map found through clicking on the item, extra item interaction animations, and a boat on the overworld to make it more obvious where you can obtain one. Does anybody have more suggestions for improvements?
Just as a refresher, this is what the 2009 Brookings paper said about using Israel to provoke a war, and how the US required a perceived Iranian "provocation" to wade into the war itself.
Eles abandonam a terra, recusando-se a sacrificar-se por ela — porque nunca foi a terra deles. A verdade fala por si — nunca é difícil ver quem realmente pertence à terra.
They leave the land, refusing to sacrifice for it — because it was never their land The truth speaks for itself — it's never hard to see who truly belongs to the land.

Ich hab gestern mein Smartphone von Englisch auf deutsch umgestellt und ich Frage mich wie ihr das macht.
Hab jetzt schon zweimal (Reddit und newpipe) Videos mit komplett bescheuerter KI Übersetzung vorgelegt bekommen, weil das Original in Englisch war.
Auch viel content scheint übersetzt zu sein, da bin ich aber nicht sicher.
Also zur Frage: Handy auf Deutsch oder Englisch? Wie geht ihr mit Maschinenübersetzungen um? Bin ich der Einzige dem das auffällt oder der saß untergeschoben bekommt?

solved: not plasmas fault: the monitors own smartcontrast did that.
Hi, please kindly direct me to the right community to ask this:
Plasma 6 is my favorite DE and i use KDE neon. The screen brightness adapts automatically to the windows i focus on, which is a good idea. But it does that the wrong way IMO. Dark windows are dimmed and bright windows are lit up. Why? Now i have both extremes switching back and forth all the time. Can we turn that the other way around or turn it off please?
I like that the screens hardware brightness setting is used now from the desktop. Great! But now i have no control over it anymore, since when i open a bright window, the brightness setting goes up too. I hate that at night.
Usually adjusting the brightness for me has one purpose: - bright room: max display brightness (day) - dark room: min display brightness (night)
...maybe something in between for transition. All the other features are nice to have but please only work on them when this main feature is secured.
If both monitors are messing with your sensors, you may just want to disable adaptive brightness and manually control it. They don't seem to have a workaround for it as of yet.
Whoops, it's already been months since I last blogged. I've been actively involved with Plasma and especially its power management service PowerDevil for over a year now. I'm still learning about how everything fits together.
That's probably the new Extended Dynamic Range setting from Plasma 6.4. You can find it in the display settings. It is meant to adjust the display's brightness to emulate an HDR display.
The screen brightness adapts automatically to the windows i focus on, which is a good idea.
That's definitely not something Plasma is doing... Sounds like your monitor is dumb with "adaptive contrast" or just terribly implemented local dimming.
"The order that we received from our CIC was focused; it was powerful , & it was clear. We devastated the Iranian nuclear program. What it's worth noting that the operation did not target the Iranian troops or the Iranian people.

Depends on the timeline. Years from now when everyone has forgotten her? Maybe. But right now she's too high-profile and it would be too obvious, even for the pseudo-mask-off regime. I think at most it will be a resignation.
Taiwan is "of course" a country and China lacks both the historical evidence and legal proof to back up its sovereignty claims, President Lai Ching-te said on Sunday in a strong rebuke to Beijing and its stepped up political and military pressure.
China says democratically-governed Taiwan is "sacred" Chinese territory that has belonged to the country since ancient times, and that the island is one of its provinces with no right to be called a state.
Lai and his government strongly reject that view, and have offered talks with China multiple times but have been rejected. China calls Lai a "separatist".
Giving the first of 10 speeches in a series called "uniting the country", Lai drew on Taiwan's history, including the millennia-long connection of its indigenous people to other Austronesians, like native Hawaiians, to show what he said was Taiwan's separate and distinct development from China.

About a year ago, I heard someone mention that Outer Wilds had a VR mod. I do have a VR setup and am an experienced VR player, so I really could experience this game for the first time in VR.
Is that reasonable or should I play it the first time with flat graphics?
I have only played the game in VR and loved it. The mod worked great for me a year or two ago so unless a patch went through it still should. Since you’re an experienced VR player I don’t think you’ll have too much issue with motion sickness. That being said it takes a lot to make me nauseous, so your results may vary. I think it’s an amazing way to get drawn into the world.
Although specific for the UK, I doubt these numbers differ much between countries. The market has always been an ideological construct, to benefit a small clique.
The street that my mum lives in is a one-way street, but wasn't marked as such on #Google Maps. This caused many drivers to drive the wrong way. I have tried to edit it on Google Maps (there is such functionality), but to no avail. No matter how often I submitted a change (with photos of street signs!), Google said "Sorry, we could not verify it".
Solution: Edit the street on #OpenStreetMap! A few months after I did this, Google seems to have stolen the data, as it regularly does, and now the street is correct in both datasets!
I wonder if their 'verification' process is literally just "look it up on other maps like OSM and see if it says the same thing" so that they can claim that Technically, It Was Contributed To Us
Good hint. Have a similar issue here. Pity OSM is 100% perfect already with bollards and footpath where Google shows a regular road.🤦♀️ I wish they would just copy this.
Yea, I've also made edits on openstreetmap that Google Maps have stolen.
To make an edit on Google Maps you need another user with privileges to approve the change. Or make lots of changes yourself to level up and have more control.
that's a great hint, thank you! I have a similar Situation here, Google decided last summer, that the street where I live in, is not longer accessible by car, which makes route planning impossible. Great problem with parcel delivery services... I will have a look at OSM and will see, what I can do.
In my experience, edits on Apple Maps are applied within some days up to two weeks at most. They appear to use some user based trust rating, as my initial edits needed significantly more time. I made approximately 100 edits so far.
Je ne vous partagerai pas ici l'image du Golfe du Mexique renommé dans Google Maps.

Could they please also steal the shapes of buildings that don't fall into the river? It's been like that for at least 4 years. In general, Google Maps are broken like that at least in St Petersburg and Dubai. They were fine in Paris, Brussels and Cologne when I visited Europe last year but I still had trust issues.

Regarding Adam's comments about Siri's "not ready" clip. There was a key statement in that clip. Apple is trying to run the model on-device. You can't run a model of any usable size on an iPhone. Even if it had the memory, it would take days for it to crunch through the prompt. It's like trying to pull a tractor trailer with a Honda Civic.
So, instead, they have to run smaller models which can't handle any worth while tasks.

I picked up an old optiplex I'm trying to use as a NAS and do other things with. Initially I put Debian on there but felt like I was running into too many problems with things like power management, remot desktop, Docker, and mounting drives.
So I put Openmediavault on there and it's working now. But what are some of the best ways to get the most out of it?
Can I do most things through the browser interface, or should I remote into it to install things?
How easily can I mount it as a network drive to other computers? I still have a Windows PC so I'd like to access it from there too if possible.
And what's the best way to get other services running on it? I'm thinking of how it's possible to set up torrenting software and control it with a remote app from your phone. (For managing and sharing my distros, of course).
Happy to hear any feedback on what people do with OMV, or their setups for a NAS in general. This is more of a tinkering computer to get me more familiar with networks and Linux.
I don't use OMV, but I have a nas server I built and here is my .02
set up an smb share in OMV for windows. Mounting that in windows should be trivial (don't hold me. Haven't used windows in years now, but last I used win10 smb was super easy to mount)
look into docker on OMV for deploying stuff. I run docker on my NAS and host a bunch of stuff including
with docker, if you want a GUI for ceeating, managing and interacting with your stuff, look at Dockge and Portainer
Portainer is your container management software to deploy, troubleshoot, and secure applications across cloud, datacenter, and Industrial IoT use cases.
Here’s the thing: fuck the ayatollah and his mullahs and fuck Hamas (neither of those bastards would hesitate to put a bullet in the head of an atheist apostate like me) but that doesn’t mean you attack the people of Iran (most of whom oppose the regime) or Palestine (who also suffer under the yoke of Hamas – an organisation that, furthermore, was funded and supported by Netanyahu’s regime to sabotage the peace process).
If you cannot separate authoritarian regimes from the people being oppressed by them, and if you condone the indiscriminate slaughter of the latter, then don’t be surprised when the same rules end up applying to you… given the way things are going in the United States, for example.
We have rules of combat and international law for a reason. It’s not because we’re morally superior; far from it. It’s because we don’t want that same shit done to us. That’s a dangerous thing to forget.
It warms my heart every day that people all over the world have no trouble distinguishing the current American government from the many Americans who are resisting it. The same applies to the peaceful people of Palestine and Iran.
Stability and lasting peace depend on good relations with governments supported by their own people. You don't get from here to there by bombing hospitals full of children.
@Professor_Stevens No matter where “there” is, “Stability and lasting peace depend on good relations with governments supported by their own people. You don't get from here to there by bombing hospitals full of children.” 💔
@gfpreger Yeah, you love them so much, why don’t you go live under their rule? For fuck’s sake, man, can you just be on the right side of history without being a goddamned tankie?
@agaudeul Precisely what kind of fucking stupid are you? The "I'll believe any propaganda that confirms my racism" kind, or the "The brown civilian victims are all actors" kind, or the "Muslim kids are just terrorists in waiting" kind, or what? Take your brain rot elsewhere.
I sadly don't believe that is the reason we have international law. The reason seems to me being to legalwash all the neo-colonialist shit the colonial powers are doing and convince their people that they are "doing the right thing".
The fact that they now decided to do away with pretenses mean that either they are desperate and in a corner or they know nobody is going to touch them.
truth being told. But keep in mind that when a war starts there will be collateral damages. But what Israel is doing right now in the Gaza Strip overcomes everything, they are doing what others made to their people in the past... They forgot really quick.

"UNRWA has affirmed that in the past year, Israel has subjected Gaza to “the most intense bombardment of a civilian population since World War.” By February 2024 they had used over 25,000 tonnes of explosives across the Gaza Strip...

While air transport and navy vessels are also used, a significant amount of military supplies for Israel’s genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity, are shipped via sea on commercial merchant vessels.
Attack on a Bank Branch by Anarchist Action Group: Volos, Greece
In the early morning hours of Wednesday, May 28, we placed gas canisters at Alpha Bank in Larissis Street in the city of Volos.
We dedicate this action to our comrades outside but above all to those within the walls, to those who fled, to the people of our class who are killed and sacrificed daily because of the capitalist machine on the altar of profit, as well as to all the rebels of this land.
We judge injustice and always at the height of the struggle we will try to take revenge on our torturers and oppressors at every opportunity and in every way.
Therefore, we call on those who are suffering from injustice to take the situation into their own hands in any way they can, so that the monopoly of state and capitalist violence can be demolished.

@bluevelvet321 I don't see how they can keep it going for long either, even more importantly than financial damage, is the lack of industrial capacity.
@bluevelvet321 for sure, it looks like Iran will focus on continuing the war of attrition with Israel and may be closing the strait of Hormuz to put economic pressure on the west. I think that's a smart strategy.

still used is always a gamble most important is that you get it from a place with some kind of insurance or return policy just in case.
