Rednax,

According to steamDB AoE IV has between 1.27 and 2.5 million owners. That is a good number, but not mainstream. At the very least not mainstream in the definition used in the article.

Rednax,

The CEO from the article is also making an RTS. He is not claiming they are unprofitable. He is saying they are not mainstream enough to sell tens of millions of copies.

Rednax,

Starcraft 2 is almost 14 years old.

Rednax,

My apologies. You weren’t arguing against the articles premise, but against the premise that there are no good current RTS games. Ignore my blabering.

Rednax,

Adjust the times at which you eat, and make sure those times are consistent. Sleeping habits will follow way more easily if you adjust eating times along with them.

Rednax,

Could it be a hidden/removed feature where the Pelican can take damage, but leaves instead of being blown up? That also explain why someone mentioned that dropping on top of it also triggers this bug.

Rednax,

I also used to save up every potion and usuable that I came across. I wanted to feel in control by being prepared for everything. That sounds like a fine quality to have, but it stems from a fear of not being able to handle whatever is thrown at you. It is a symptom of a lack of self confidence.

Nowadays the things that I’m most proud of in life, are things I only achieved because I jumped head first into the unknown, yet still came out on top of whatever challenge I had taken on.

Rednax,

It was an aprils fools joke from the company. I found the authors website, where he showcases it as part of his portfolio: mauricevanberkel.nl/portfolio-tag/easytoys/And it is documented here also: adformatie.nl/…/1-aprilgrappen-van-merken-profess…

Rednax,

Discord also does group calls, with or without video. In a server, a ‘channel’ can be a voice channel instead of a text channel, or you can start calls directly with people.

Planning to move to the Netherlands. Which city would be a great place to live: Amsterdam or Utrecht?

I’m an American and I’m thinking about moving to the Netherlands sometime in the future especially if a “certain presidential candidate” gets elected. Now, I’ve never been to the Netherlands or anywhere in Europe for that matter. Everything I “know” about the country comes from Youtube videos/channels that brag...

Rednax,

Just about anywhere, you will find all the basics within biking range. Almost every neighbourhood has at least one supermarket. And every town will have a barbershop, pharmacy (both an over the counter (drogist) and a separate prescription one), GP (huisarts), etc.

Biking infrastructure is good almost everywhere. Both in the big cities and in the smaller towns. I wouldn’t use that as a factor.

Also note there is a housing crisis going on right now. You might read such stories about Cananda, but the Netherlands has it just as bad. Especially in the triangle between Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and Utrecht, it is bad.

I recommend looking at funda.nl at different places. See what is available in your price range. That also makes it much easier to find out about the towns around the big cities.

Rednax,

Google is not a mobile phone network provider. SMS routing is not really their cup of tea. It is an industry with lots of established players, lota of local issues, and little to gain for Google. If it where up to Google, everyone would be using their app instead of SMS.

Rednax,

In The Netherlands, the power grid has been turned into a different company than the power supply company. Same for gas and internet. The infrastructure companies are tightly regulated, to the point that they might as well be gpvernment branches. The providers however, are free to offer whatever.

The result is healthy competition where possible, without any company gaining a monopoly position over the utilities of individuals.

The drawback is that they figired out that the best way to make money, is of the backs of lazy people. People who don’t want to switch providers, cause that means effort. Hence, not actively looking for a better offer every few years is quite costly.

Rednax,

I love the fact that people joke about this nowadays. Because my mom still has bad memories from her childhood, where her teachers forced her to be right handed, acting as if it was a choice, and she was just really bad at writing. This was not a third world country either, but the Netherlands.

Rednax,

But I love coding at work?!

The problem is that every living entity in a 10 kilometer radius around me, seems to be hellbent on getting me to do anything but coding. Refining work estimates, fixing badge access rights, fixing a driver issue, telling people that you cannot do 1000 things at the same time, teaching the new developer how shit (doesn’t) works, mangling Jenkins into a functional state again, explaning that thing I did a year ago but is only now used (it was very high prio a year ago), writing documentation that noboby ever reads, progress meetings, specialty group meetings, knowledge sharing meetings, company wide meetings, etc.

Rednax,

I think it’s a fun game. But it certainly is overhyped as fuck.

Rednax,

I think it also boosts morale. People will be very reluctant to support the war, if they see that most of their efforts, money, or lives are wasted on corruption.

Rednax,

While ill, and stuck on the couch, I watched the entire Eve Online video in 1 sitting. All 6+ hours of it.

Rednax,

Which makes me want to try and insert a password of a few megabytes worth of text. Should be fine, since there is no max lenght defined, right?

Rednax,

At the end of november 2023, The Netherlands had a population of 17 947 406. In the schoolyear 22/23, it had around 821.1k students (hbo + wo). Source: www.cbs.nl/nl-nl/cijfers/detail/37220

Meaning about 4.57% of the population was a student.

Gaza had a population of around 2,3 million according to wikipedia. Meaning around 105000 students if they also have a ratio of 4.57% of students.

According to the article, Pallestine claims that 4,327 students have been killed. This is about 4.1% of the 105 000 estimated students.

According to the following article, about 22.8k people have been killed in Gaza so far. theguardian.com/…/the-numbers-that-reveal-the-ext…That is about 1% of the 2.3 million.

So based on these napkin calculations, I’d say student are way more likely to be killed.

While this may be related to their age bracket, and not their scholar status, I conclude that they certainly are not spared.

Rednax,

My hypothesis is that people of fighting age, would be more likely to die in a conflict. I have no idea if it is true. The reason I mention it, is to point out that I did not establish causation between beeing a student and a higher death chance, only correlation.

With the numbers you mention, it still holds true that this group has a significantly higher death percentage than average.

I hope someday we'll find a way to pirated a car (lemmy.world)

In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn’t feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in...

Rednax,

For some, this subscription model is great. But do you agree, that is it a bad thing if they force it on us?

Rednax,

I don’t understand why someone would want to rent their car. Maintenance is not that hard, and companies always make you pay way more for their subscription models. By owning the car, you can pick who does maintenance. Meaning there can be competition, so prices/quality remains good.

Rednax,

You’d get a couple of new materials, like deuterium, dilithium, nd Trellium-D. And instead of sending a rocket to space, you call in a starship that transports your resources aboard.

Sounds like stuff a mod could do, if Satisfactory allows proper modding.

Rednax,

You are asking them for their fish. This request seems to be an attempt to teach your politicians how to fish.

I’d much rather see them use it to lobby in favour of taxes on the wealthy, than seeing a handful of them give part of their money away.

Rednax,
