Maybe dead capacitors? If you don't have a multimeter and soldering iron, this is a good excuse to get/learn those things!

It’s about democracy and sovereignty. Let’s say a EU member internationally votes 51% in favor of implementing socialism. Because of the EU membership, it would not be possible to implement due to regulations outside of a single country’s control, and EU is famously very capitalistic in general.
Not always getting what you want sometimes is democracy though. The alternative is not getting what you want ever, because the government exists to serve the interests of a certain group that most likely doesn't include you.
If it wasn't for the constitution, Texas and Florida would probably hold an election to bring back human slavery, then call it "democratic and sovereign" because they got enough votes from the evil fucks that live there.
What downsides are there to EU membership? Asking as an ignorant American
Maybe now she'll think twice next time she's about to vote to release the Epstein files
Mint us absolutely perfect for folks like me. I want to use my computer, not work on it.
I know you're not going to believe me, because you sound like the type of person who is "set in their ways", but the only thing that makes Mint better for you than some other distro is that it happens to already be installed on your computer. That's it. Mint is not the perfect choice for anyone, because it's not particularly good at anything.
Keep using it. If it works for you, great. I don't care what you use. But we shouldn't be misleading people new to Linux into installing a distro that might not work for them.
Version control tooling is still at its “blackberry” stage anyway.
That was uncalled for.
google does a lot of things that just aren’t realistic for the large majority of cases
Yes, but that is not relevant. The person they replied to said a monorepo doesn't scale. Google (and others) prove that it does scale to at least their massive size.
How much VRAM does alacritty use? On my machine, nvidia-smi reports 6MiB for konsole, which I'm seems to be some default reserved by Qt apps (eg dolphin reports the same amount)
Wow I always assumed the same thing lol
I haveb't looked into this particular group, but usually it's patents. Someone owns a patent for the tech required to implement the standard, and they "license" it out to anyone who wants to implement that standard. Obviously, they won't agree to terms that hurt their ability to collect rent on their patent. Qualcomm is famously guilty of this in the modem space.
Does that seem stupid, to adopt an industry standard that requires patented technology to implement? That's because it is, and were we a sane society we would invalidate any patents that become an industry standard, but we're a bunch of idiots with a billionaire cuck fetish.
I would not recommend Godot for a beginner. Not only is it complex to use, it does things very differently from most other game engines, even using its own custom programming language. I don't see a beginner succeeding with Godot. The ideal user for Godot is a realtively experienced Unity or Unreal user who is fed up with their bullshit.
I would recommend Game Maker, Construct, GDevelop, RPG Maker.
Game development involves a lot of different skillsets, and you don't necessarily need to learn everything yourself. That hard part is figuring out which role you want to play in the industry.
Don't worry about the story. They're all pretty much disconnected, and it's better to think of them as standalone stories with a shared (but ultimately inconsequential) universe.
If you haven't played the RE 2 remake, start there. It's IMO the best resident evil game of all time. I have a ton of nostalgia for OG RE1, but this remake is spectacular.
I beat both 7 and 8 but forgot the story, so there ya go. IIRC, 8 is a sequel to 7, with the same main character, so it might be smart to play 7 first. Both are great, but it'll take a bit to get settled in with the first person view.
