Maybe I’m crazy but that looks more like a modern assault rifle than a 1940s submachine gun.

Arson is prosecuted by the state unless it was carried out on federal property… They really don’t try to hide it anymore do they?

appreciate the message, but God can we please not share pizza cake comics on Lemmy, none of them were funny on Reddit and they’re not funny here.

oh, so everything a leftist does is terrorism now, but when right wingers break into the capital building by force its “freedom of speech”

part of it is that on 75% the numpad is optional, and it gives you more desk space for other things

its really a matter of personal preference, but I prefer to have more space for my mousepad and coffee, rather than a larger keyboard just for the sake of it. even if I did want a numpad, (which I don’t because I prefer macropads) I would want to be able to move it around separately from the keyboard

at this point the only thing keeping me on windows is lossless scaling, if it got ported over to Linux I would switch in a heartbeat to avoid this stupid ai slop they keep pushing on consumers. in the meantime I’m going to be installing foss versions of all my default windows software

yes, it is such a surprise that ai isn’t able to create something that requires thousands of hours technical and artistic skill to create. I would argue that videogames, being the most technically complicated form of media, are probably the hardest thing for ai to attempt to copy.

nah 75%'s are more popular than tkl right now for a reason, its more compact and gives you basically the same function.

glad to help!, I thought I should mention real quick that if you decide to play around with mods that run on both the client and server side, Prism Launcher is by far the best way to manage modded instances of Minecraft. allowing you to easily download modpacks or create and export your own. I wouldn’t use the default launcher if you decide to use mods on the client.

So basically there is different modified versions of Minecraft for different purposes. Paper is specifically for hosting non-modded servers on lower end machines, but it changes some systems of Minecraft in undesirable ways, and only supports simple “plugins”. Fabric and Forge are the popular “mod loaders”, they are made to allow you to install mods to Minecraft, which includes mods like Lithium and Sodium that massively increase Minecraft’s performance.

with the right combination of performance enhancing mods you can increase Minecraft’s fps tenfold, without sacrificing any features or changing the gameplay. I run a massive custom modpack with tons of content and graphics mods, and it actually runs better than vanilla Minecraft because of the performance mods.

The performance mods I use for fabric are: Lithium, Sodium, Enhanced Block Entities, More culling, Ferrite Core, Immediately Fast, Modern Fix, Memory Leak Fix, Concurrent Chunk Management System, Noisium, Bad Optimizations, and Let Me Despawn.

There is plenty more performance mods out there that optimized more niche parts of the game, but these are the important ones (that I use). Lastly I don’t think a VPS is necessary because Minecraft servers can usually be run on even low end hardware, like a raspberry pi.

just gonna recommend for running a server that you use fabric with performance mods (lithium is the most important) instead of paper or similar server versions.

even if they add vibrant visuals to java I’ll most likely stick to using photon and complementary shaders. But the new graphics honestly look so appealing stylistically to me, that it’s a close match. If the new graphics are more compatible with different fancy modded effects that would definitely get me to use them in heavily modded scenarios.

there is problems with the buy european movement as outlines in other comments here, but as an American: please continue boycotting us, the chances of our government changing for the better are slim, but every bit of protest matters.

the vision pro is the most laughable excuse for a product i’ve ever seen, over 3000 dollars for a VR headset that cant play games and cant connect to a PC is insane. its a glorified web browser that makes your face sweaty.

look at either high end productivity mice, or MMO/RTS gaming mice. there is so many thousands of options for mice if you’re willing to look.

I cannot tell you how many times I’ve had to help family members and friends “fix the sound” on their computers because they somehow changed their default audio output device without knowing it. I really wish people would just check their audio settings when they have a problem with it, instead of calling me to help every time.

does anyone actually see this and think it’s heartwarming???
