At some point around retirement age, humans seem to cognitively revert back to children

I know someone who works in a elderly care home, she says roughly the same: “Ouderen verkindsen” (elderly turn into children)

Your cognitive abilities really do seem to diminish after a certain point, no matter where. It’s annoying they think they’re adults and demand respect…

I was thinking the same, but I’ve not seen anyone seeming like a weed dealer so far. I think it’s just a case of German humour 😋

Hm fair point!

XMPP is focused on personal chats, calls and group chats. It’s a better drop-in replacement for Messenger, WhatsApp, Telegram and Signal.

Matrix is great too, although it’s focused on channel-based, administrated chat rooms. It’s got a higher barrier of entry but is an excellent replacement for Discord, Teams and Slack for managing companies and other organised groups.

They fill in different use cases and are both excellent decentralised services with the possibility to avoid non-European digital services!

I meant…

• Nicotine: Not good to recommend it, but legal in most countries.
• Caffeine: Fine to recommend it, perfectly legal just about everywhere.
• Cocaine: 🚨

I’ve seen it usually works well.

I believe you do have to change the slashes in the checksum files and run wine setup.exe in the folder, after that it should have a desktop shortcut just like on Windows. You should also be able to add it as installed game to Lutris.

Take it with a grain of salt, I haven’t tried it myself, though.

One is not like the other…

Just adding that Tekken 7 and 8 run better under Linux with Proton than under Windows, and that modding is just as easy!
Shogun 2: Total War also runs fine under Linux with Proton, but I couldn’t get it to run on Windows, anymore (Flash).

So it really depends on your game.

It’s so bad comparitively that I am considering to just not use AI anymore.

This is the way.

EDIT I misunderstood the post, this is what you’re using, not what you’re recommending, sorry about that!
I will still include my original comment below.

Still, I use and can recommend XMPP and the provider magicbroccoli.de! Arne the admin is also a swell guy!

Bold move recommending US Signal over European Telegram!

I’d personally trust neither very much; one’s US funded and the other clearly not as secure outside “secret chats”.

But what about Threema? Or a European XMPP provider like the excellent magicbroccoli.de?

In case of the US they’ll ask “Oh? You reject him? You and what army?”

You can’t really deny the US much, y’know.

Username checks out, eh?

…without any repercussions, So Far™

Yeah well, a remake means they made the game again. It’s a new game, with the same content. That does mean it runs a new engine, and has modern-sized textures and models.

Perhaps they could optimise the game a bit more, I’ve always thought an installer that let’s you choose wether to install the downsized 1080p assets or the full-size 4k assets would’ve been nice to have but alas.

this guy’s dead wife*

Still fits!

For BeefPiano@lemmy.world ; I think the key words are “that force businesses who are open anyway”

Perhaps it shouldn’t be a public holiday but some other law that forces (half) a day off on that day.

Nor models.

And oh look, those make up everything that isn’t music or UI!

Old game runs needs less powerful hardware than new game

Good lord, did you figure that out all by yourself‽ /s

Yeah, I think this says more about OP’s information bubble.

The latter seems like all the more reason to have more people per km² buying solar panels, no?

Also, more divided than Germany? How so?

How about Germany and the UK?

Because Japan is larger than either.
