I’ve switched my KDE setup to Wayland a few months ago and have seen a performance increase on some of my games. For example, Cyberpunk feels much smoother than under X11.

But I’m facing the same issue you’re describing in the native Linux build of War Thunder. It runs at a stable 144FPS on X11 but regularly dips down to 20FPS on Wayland. I initially thought it might be the NVidia drivers, but seeing that you’ve got an AMD card, I’m not so sure anymore. For now the fix is to just switch to a X11 session if I want to play this specific game. I don’t think KDE will drop it anytime soon, there are still a lot of random quirks in Wayland at this point.

I’ve watched an 18 minute video of an Indian scammer talking to an answering machine randomly repeating one of like 10 pre-recorded voice lines. This one is most likely much better and will steal hours of their time.

Also for a lot of people, their social circle is partly there.

I get that, but at this point I’d actively try to get them to use a different site/app. I managed to move large parts of my friend group and my whole family to Signal. I’m now trying to get some to transition from Discord to Matrix, though moving there has definitely been not as smooth.

It should be much easier with Twitter, there are a bunch of very similar and usable alternatives. You just have to put in some work and convince people with solid arguments and support.

There are a lot of leftists still “fighting the good fight” on Xitter, even if the platform is pitted against them and all they do is drive engagement to it. I never understood why some people can’t bring themselves to leave. I left reddit for much less.

The whole thing reads like the ramblings of someone with paranoid schizophrenia tbh…

Lmao what? There won’t be a push for Kyiv anytime soon. And not from Kursk on the other side of the country. Even the worst scenarios don’t include Kyiv getting captured at this point.

Edit:

Doesn’t really matter all that much since Europe is able to buy shells from non-European countries. South Korea manufactured more 155mm artillery shells than all of Europe combined in 2023 - and that is in addition to the ones that are produced in the EU.

Europe used to be Russia’s largest trading partner before the sanctions. The US won’t be able to bail them out.

I’ve never even used AOL mail and I still know exactly what the notification sounds like.

This dude looks so much like the Austrian neo-nazi Martin Sellner that it’s actually uncanny. I genuinely thought this was him. Maybe they are long lost brothers?

Gamestar, the largest German gaming site, recently stated that they are very optimistic about the game and that the preview they got to play behind closed doors was excellent. Maybe it looks a bit outdated, but that was also the case for the previous titles when they came out.

The game will have a Ukrainian language option afaik. There won’t be a Russian dub though.

It takes a bit to get used to. The first thing I do on a new playthrough is go to train with Bernard right away until my sword skill is high enough. You can forget using the sword before that, it’s a night-and-day difference. Once you get to the point where you’re running around with a set of full armor, you’re basically human tank. I actually killed the first boss in one hit once lol.

I enjoyed the combat system overall but it got very tedious and unfair if you got attacked by more than two people at the same time. I suppose it’s realistic, but it wasn’t really fun when you had to “lock on” to multiple enemies.

That is only the number that has been independently verified from online obituaries and funeral announcements. It should be mentioned that it is much lower than even the most conservative estimates. The actual number of deaths is most likely closer to 200.000, though exact estimates are basically impossible.

And about 4-5% of their male population eligible for military service.

Here’s your answer, at least in theory:

These guys have been thrown into the middle of a conflict of similar looking people wearing similar camo and using similar weapons while speaking almost indistinguishable languages. This is probably not the only time this will happen.

Regulations on fossil fuels have become very strict in Europe and any manufacturer wanting to sell there is going to maximize aerodynamics. Not to mention the increased range for electric cars. Most people still view cars as utilities, they care more about how far it can go on one charge instead of cool angular designs.
