holgersson@lemm.eeto Technology@lemmy.world•About 500,000 trees cut down at site of Tesla gigafactory near Berlin | The GuardianEnglish186·11 months agoWhy the downvotes
I for my part downvoted because it’s just false equivalence. Cutting down a part of a commercial forest is pretty far from completely cutting “every single forest” in Sweden.
Is it great that trees were cut down without replanting? No.
Is there a perfectly cleared and infrastructurally connected plot of land in Brandenburg that Tesla could have used instead? Also no.
Your comparison was basically the same as “We sell a plot of land to Elon? Why not just sell every plot of land to him then!”.
I cannot have my own nuclear reactor, but the state can build nuclear power plants, wheres the fairness, wheres the freedom
The bike felt the battery heating up and wanted to cool down
An extinguisher that can actually handle Lithium fires though. A regular CO2 extinguisher wont do anything against burning Lithium
holgersson@lemm.eeto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If "Master/Slave" terminology in computing sounds bad now, why not change it to "Dom/Sub"?1·11 months agoFair enough. Im in devops and the first thing I thought about was Jenkins, where “server” and “agent” fit quite well.
I dont think master/slave is that good of a naming scheme for fault tolerance either, since the “slave” doesnt do work so that the master doesnt have to, but it’s rather an active/reserve kind of thing.
But I also admit that using different terms that fit best for every usecase would only cause more confusion than good.
holgersson@lemm.eeto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If "Master/Slave" terminology in computing sounds bad now, why not change it to "Dom/Sub"?16·11 months agoWe’re using server and agent, but im also a proponent of “captain” and “crew”
The same kind of idiot that conveniently ignores all the hormones in meat and dairy used to maximize profit
holgersson@lemm.eeto Linux@lemmy.ml•If you have installed Linux on a Microsoft Surface Pro, what was your experience?4·11 months agoIm running Ubuntu on a Surface Pro 5 (i5 7300u, 8GB) with the linux-surface-kernel.
Generally, things pretty much worked out of the box, the only tinkering I had to do was to optimize battery life / cpu power usage when not plugged in. Theres packages that will limit your CPU frequency depending on the status of your battery. I dont remember the exact name, but it was pretty much the first hit I googled “linux limit cpu power” or something like that. Without that, the battery life wasnt great, especially when watching YouTube, but with some tweaking and the proper h264/h265 drivers, my surface achieves some 3-4 hours of video playback right now.
Other than that it’s smooth sailing all the way.

holgersson@lemm.eeto Games@lemmy.world•What games popularized certain mechanics?English31·11 months agoAs the inspiration yes. But Minecraft hunger games was the first to do it in gaming while also reaching maybe not more people than the movies, but definitly spreading to communities that the movies and books didnt reach (e.g. i didnt watch the movies until well over ten years after I had played my first game of MC hunger games)
holgersson@lemm.eeto Games@lemmy.world•What games popularized certain mechanics?English6·11 months agoI couldnt find a release history for the Minecraft mod, however according to the following article, it was released about a year before the original PlayerUnknown mod for DayZ / Arma 3.

holgersson@lemm.eeto [Dormant] Electric Vehicles (Moved to [email protected])@lemmy.world•Volkswagen's first electric ID GTI will be 'a real go kart' to drive2·11 months agoOr just GT, since thats the two letters they also use for their diesels (GTD) and plug in hybrids (GTE).
They could have also gone with GTID, still GTI, but also ID, their EV brand.
holgersson@lemm.eeto [Dormant] Electric Vehicles (Moved to [email protected])@lemmy.world•Volkswagen's first electric ID GTI will be 'a real go kart' to drive2·11 months agoMarketing people make up the stupidest shit. “Grand Turismo Intelligence”.
Why not just say “I” stands for current. It’s literally the symbol for that. So it’d be Grand Turismo, but electric.
holgersson@lemm.eeto Games@lemmy.world•What games popularized certain mechanics?English302·11 months agoMinecraft Hunger Games, although a mod, is responsible for the Battle Royal hype aswell.
So Minecraft caused Fortnite twice - once as a survival crafting and building game and then as a Battle Royal retaining some of these elements

Do souls have sizes, like “you need at least the soul of a medium sized dog or pig”?
Because if every soul is worth equally much, just set an anthill on fire and be done for the foreseeable future.
Of course, as your next course of action, you should make up for the damage done to your local eco system, but that should be doable within the powers and lifespan of a lich.
