Ubuntu is developed and controlled by a corporation (canonical) and they have some non ideal practices (like pushing snaps heavily instead of the more open flatpaks or native apps). Mint takes what’s good in Ubuntu and cleans it up a lot.

I’ve heard that happen with mint before. Try a bit more modern distro like fedora or openSUSE maybe?

That only works though, if the app is in the official repos. Otherwise it gets as complicated as Windows, if not more so. Which technically also has a software manager (Microsoft store), albeit a bad one.

Movies do belong in cinemas. Rian Johnson‘s movies do not.

Schon faszinierend, dass sich sowohl das angelsächsische "tongs“ und „tongues“, als auch das deutsche „Zange“ und „Zunge“ sich so ähneln.

Fast so, als ob die Sprachen verwandt sind.

Oder es ist einfach nur Zufall. Wer weiß das schon? Ich jedenfalls nicht.

Ah, that‘d make sense

I never quite got how interviews could be rare. Lost, maybe. But as soon as it’s on YouTube, how can it be rare? It’s right there, available to everyone, any time.

No, that’s ‘Beretta’.

Better is a German woman‘s name, which, prefixed by ‘Big’ is also the nickname given to a large German howitzer in WWI.

It’s not actually done by Bethesda though but by Virtuos Games, which have both a history of making excellent remasters and miracle ports, and remasters that were very buggy at release.

Nobara: Has all the gaming features I want on my gaming pc (like gamescope) and is htpc capable. Also, it’s based on Fedora, which I’m familiar with.

Fedora: I like gnome and it’s always fairly up to date and rock solid. Great on my laptop.

Have considered switching to openSUSE though. It’s German (as am I), it’s the first Linux distro I ever used (on my granddad’s PC, more than a decade ago) and I’ve heard a lot of good about tumbleweed.

Depends on how much work they put into the graphics. Sure, if they keep UE at default settings, it’ll look like any run of the mill UE5 game. But if they cared enough to combine two engines, maybe they also cared enough to actually make UE5 look and feel more unique and more Elderscrolls-y…

Also, keeping gamebryo for logic might be a good thing to make the game feel more like the original.

Apparently UE5 only for rendering, the game logic still on the old gamebryo engine.

Because if done well, UE5 is fairly pretty and if it’s used just for graphics, maybe it won’t perform as badly either. The mixture of two engines tells me at the very least that the devs spent some amount of thought and time on the engine(s).

But yea, when it comes out and I find out it runs like crap on my 5700xt, I’ll just wait until Skyblivion is out. Not gonna be too long anyways.

I just looked it up: Apparently there was a scene where the actresses butt was visible, which got covered by CGI hair extensions.

However, the movie has since gotten a 4K remaster on D+, which does not censor da booty.

Last time I used it (been a while though) it was free, if you only transferred playlists up to 200 songs

Hey, with that pill I‘d only have to sleep 4 hours to be as rested as the regular 6.

„The ability to play chess is the sign of a gentleman. The ability to play chess well is the sign of a wasted life.“

No. Technically, both watermelons and cucumbers are berries.

Das machen meine Textvorschläge bzw. Autokorrektur seit iOS 18 ständig. Nervtötend.

Mein Vater sagt immer: „Lieber 'ne Blinde im Bett als 'ne Taube auf auf dem Dach."

That’s because our eyes adapt themselves to different colour temperatures all the time during the day (a tungsten light bulb has very warm (orange) light, while daylight is much cooler (blue), for example, yet white is always white to us). This happens automatically and subconsciously.

If you close one eye for a little while though, it „resets“ back to its default colour temperature. After opening it again, it’ll take a little while for it to start compensating to the correct white point again and thus you‘ll have different hues on both eyes for a little while.

The effect is exaggerated a lot, if you close one eye and then look at a bright monochromatic image with the other one (like a bright red image on your phone, close to your face).

Or, of course, if you wear anaglyphic 3D glasses (that’s the red/green or red/cyan kind) for a while, as one eye will try to compensate for the red as much as it can, while the other one will try to compensate for the green/cyan as much as possible. Result: the eye with the red glass will look much cooler after taking off the glasses, and the eye with the green/cyan glass much warmer.

Generally that effect will balance itself out after a little while. Except for very slight variances of course. Our eyes and brains are far from perfect.
