For me, the frequency of which character I played is probably huntress>wizard=assassin>warrior. But I kind of fell out of the loop when evan (the dev) introduced a whole new class 😅

Yes. Especially in this case where the distribution system is so unreliable. Your own list of “pro” easily beats the “cons”.

If anyone has a guide on how to create a torrent, pls share

If you’re on a private tracker, usually they should have a detailed guide. I would guess public ones have it too, idk for sure tho.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon. Spent years on that one.

I feel I cannot relax if I have to read.

That’s horrifying, ngl

Notice how the article implies Samsung and other corporations don’t want to do this, even though it’s something they’ve wanted to do for a long time?

It’s already disproportionately difficult to just root a Samsung phone, so this change perfectly fits the pattern. (Posting this from a new Samsung phone that I’m desperately trying to root.)

Ancient Greek sure is a bitch to spell in English.

You don’t have the power to decarbonize all electricity

From the article:

Location also affects how carbon emissions are managed. Germany has the largest carbon footprint for video streaming at 76g CO₂e per hour of streaming, reflecting its continued reliance on coal and fossil fuels. In the UK, this figure is 48g CO₂e per hour, because its energy mix includes renewables and natural gas, increasingly with nuclear as central to the UK’s low-carbon future. France, with a reliance on nuclear is the lowest, at 10g CO₂e per hour.

This is a massive difference, and clearly doable, nothing that would be limited to the distant future.

So I get this right? I’m naive for expecting govt regulations to put companies’ behaviour under control, whereas you’re realistic by expecting hundreds of millions of people deciding to systematically minimise their Youtube/Tiktok/Spotify/Netflix/Zoom usage? Hmm, alright.

And yet in an another comment you also expect that Spotify shouldn’t introduce video streaming, without any external regulation but out of pure goodness of their hearts?

No, since the article doesn’t mention anything of that sort. I really, really doubt that in the world of crypto mining and AI training the average people streaming some music and music videos will make a substantial difference. Your degrowth-oriented approach sounds like it would just solidify the already highly monopolised market, as any new players or innovation can be met with the “wastes too much bandwidth” hammer, as is this new service by Spotify right here.

I highly recommend reading research about the sustainability of the internet.

This is the first article that I get on Google. Now, as they say, “I ain’t reading all that” (I probably wouldn’t understand most of it), but I did take a look at the abstract:

Decarbonising electricity would substantially mitigate the climate impacts linked to Internet consumption, while the use of mineral and metal resources would remain of concern. A synergistic combination of rapid decarbonisation and additional measures aimed at reducing the use of fresh raw materials in electronic devices (e.g., lifetime extension) is paramount to prevent the growing Internet demand from exacerbating the pressure on the finite Earth’s carrying capacity.

Sounds good to me! With no mention of having to limit our internet usage.

And if reducing bandwidth waste really were that important, it would have go both ways anyway, with the providers optimising their content (probably forced to do so by regulations in some way).

To minimise the environmental footprint of your own music streaming, use Wi-Fi rather than 4G or 5G. If you listen to a song repeatedly, purchase a download to play. Use localised storage rather than cloud-based systems for all of your music and video files. Reduce auto-play, aimless background streaming or using streaming as a sleep aid by changing the default settings on your device including reducing streaming resolution. And turn your camera off for video calls, as carbon emissions are 25 times more than for audio only.

Lol no I won’t.

What a stupid, bizarre and illogical article. It clearly shows that the key is in moving to renewables yet it still argues for the users also doing this sort of tiny useless gestures. I suspect it’s AI-written at least in part.

55g of CO₂e is 50 times more than audio streaming and the equivalent of microwaving four bags of popcorn

How much is that in football fields?

The government, however, remains committed to European Union accession

Lol. Their accession has been stagnating for the last ~8 years. They don’t “remain”, they might only start to commit to the accession.

to say that Collective Shout is blameless

Twitter is not, as it turns out, the only place where well articulated sentences get misinterpreted.

But you mean the short cut screen right?

I mean the default new tab, with the logo, search bar (which I removed because I can just search from the URL bar), and the quick links that automatically get populated with your most visited sites.

Btw an another user posted a solution, turns out removing it through CSS isn’t that complicated (when a stranger provides you with the code, at least).

The CSS solution worked, thank you! And that guide was useful, now I’ll have to toy with the CSS elsewhere too… :D

(The config you mention in the edit doesn’t seem to work, however.)

I tried out one of the extensions (Tabliss) the last time they forefully changed the new tab orgnisation, and it seemed pretty good, but it loaded somewhat slower than the built-in new tab, so I’d really prefer to just modify the default new tab instead of switching…

Maybe I could try making my own html and see how that works.

Why are you caring about what is in a new tab?

You’re making it sound like “new tab” isn’t a thing one uses a lot? I have a bunch of shortcuts there and it’s stupid that area that could be used on them is wasted on something so useless. Admittedly this variant is better than the previous attempts to force the logo there that I had reverted (twice), because those were really dogshit - reducing the size of the shortcuts and/or pushing them down outside of the screen - and now at least everything fits on one screen, and the shortcuts are less reduced, though they used to be bigger.

Actually I guess I want to revert to the old style entirely. Big shortcuts, no logo (or an easily removable logo).

you could remove the logo from the source code and compile it your self. Or you could create a custom css template (I think)

Sadly I’m not competent enough to do either of these, I have no idea how CSS could affect this or be applied, and removing it from the source and recompiling sounds like killing a fly with a cannon.

This is my flag.

Let me guess, you’ll cry about censorship and persecution when this comment gets deleted and/or you get banned.

“what did students do before chatgpt?”

Is this supposed to be an actual quote? Like, someone said this unironically?
