I have not been happy with most Chinese purchases I have made in the past. Are the EVs going to fall apart in 6-8 months also?

Having consumed some science fiction over the years, I thought of what if faster-than-light travel is invented and the consequences that could happen. in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

No, not unless it is some sort of instantaneous matter transmission. Assuming mass and inertia still apply it would still take years to get to the closes suns. Hugh expense, difficult to control and limited benefit. Probably end up bankrupting the sending country.

Maybe try for the uncanny valley look. Or Mar-a-lago face if you just want to creep out intelligent guys.

I thought it weird everyone wore gloves all the time, even putting a ring on over one. Thought it was just easier to draw gloves.

If you allow Don as a shortened version of Donald there are a bunch. Don Juan, Don Quixote, etc.

The solution to the trolley problem is always, stop the trolley, call the police, untie the people. If you can't stop the trolley you are under no obligation to redirect it.

The world was a nicer place before the advent of leaf blowers (sopuli.xyz)
 

Especially gas powered ones. If you are going to blow refuse in the street, can’t you at least do it quietly?

Good distro for mostly gaming system? (sopuli.xyz)
 

I want to replace Win10 on the desktop system I mostly use for gaming. It is an older system with an Nvidia GeForce 1050ti gpu in it, which from what I found, should not be a problem. I was thinking about going with Ubuntu since it is well supported. I was interested if anyone has any opinions about this. I am also going to try and dual boot it with the Win10 for now. I purchased a new SSD drive just for Linux.

Looking for any resources about installing Linux one used laptop (sopuli.xyz)
 

I was looking into buying a used or refurbished laptop and installing a Linux distro on it. Mostly want to use it for surfing the web, but I am sure it will have a lot of other uses. What are some good sites to buy a laptop? What should I consider as far as the type of hardware goes (Gpu, WiFi, etc)? What would be good distros to consider? I have been working with Linux for a long time, so I would not consider myself a beginner. Thanks for any advice.

Question about the 3D editor view (sopuli.xyz)
 

I am going through the Godot tutorial and am in the 3D part. I clicked the perspective button and changed to top view. I now have no idea how to return the editor camera to where it was before and the tutorial seems to expect you to be in this default view. I tried searching, but I don’t think I am using the correct words to describe what I want.
