Grad mal ein Bisschen recherchiert:
Damit könnte ich echt alles machen, was ich aktuell auf Linux mache.
Außer Steam Spiele zocken.
Ich glaube, ich hatte das tatsächlich auch mal testweise installiert, und erinnere mich dass die Installation reibungsloser ablief und weniger Nacharbeit gebraucht hat als BSD, Slackware, RHEL oder OpenSUSE.

Couldn’t they just animate literally any white house press conference and call it a day?
Chile. It’s completely different from the rest of South America, better organized, closer to Europe culturally, cheap, and basically the entire country is a beach.
Plus, it’s summer there now.
Now is the perfect time for a salary negotiation.
Maybe the oceanbuilding process between Africa and Asia stopped after I finished my MSc in Geoscience 10 years ago, but I doubt it.
It’s only moving away from Arabia.
Never said it would move away from anything else.
Fuck it, let’s assume we can build jump gates.
Let’s say they’re just big enough to send a tiny unmanned drone through.
I hop into my space ship and accelerate with a conventional engine to 86% of light speed.
No violation of physics needed, just shitloads of energy.
I fly to another star, which takes 10 years from earth’s point of view.
Due to time dilation at 86% light speed, time in my space ship passes half as fast as on earth.
If someone on earth had a strong enough telescope, they could look at a clock on my ship and see that it ticks half as fast as the clocks on earth.
But in my frame of reference, earth moves away from me at 86% light speed.
So if I look at earth through a telescope, I see that the clocks on earth tick half as fast as mine.
There isn’t a universal time. Time is always relative to speed and this is no problem when the reference frames are separated.I arrive at the star, after 5 years have passed on earth.
I activate a jump gate and send the drone through with a message. It arrives on earth instantly, 5 years after I left.
But from their reference frame, they could see my clock ticking only half as fast as theirs.
After earth’s 5 years, only 2.5 years have passed for the space ship they see.
They activate their jump gate and send the drone back with a reply.
It arrives instantly at the star, 7.5 years before my space ship gets there.This is why FTL travel isn’t and will never be possible. Even with tricks like jump gates or wormholes, it creates time paradoxes.
We could maybe eventually load up multiple asteroids with building materials, frozen embryos, a self-healing nanobot factory, blueprints for building artificial breeding chambers and humanoid robots, controlled by an AGI to serve as educators, and send them off to nearby stars.
Upon arrival on suitable planets, the systems wake up and jump-start colonies.
After several hundred or thousand years of development, those colonies could build their own seeder asteroids, kicking off an exponential progress.
If every colony in turn colonizes 4 new systems within 10,000 years, we could theoretically colonize every suitable star system in the Galaxy after 200,000 years. At a very reasonable ~0.1% of light speed.But we would have zero control over the colonies, no shared culture, no trade, hardly any meaningful communication. So there would be very little benefit to it, and knowing human nature, a war of total annihilation would be likely as soon as suitable planets get scarce.
Intergalactic travel will never be possible for humans.
The nearest galaxy is 2.537.000 light years away. By the time we get there, we wouldn’t be humans anymore.
Pretty sure both of them are LLM-generated
If Africa was the same continent as Asia, it should be easy to walk across.
But you literally can’t. The only connections are a freeway bridge (currently closed), a railway bridge, a road tunnel and ferries. And geologically, an ocean is in the process of opening up in between.As for Europe, it doesn’t even have its own continental plate.
It’s less of a continent than India.

Computer RPG Games•'Bethesda's in the bad position of having expectations being so high they cannot be met': Skyrim design lead reckons it might be hard for The Elder Scrolls 6 to live up to the ever-increasing fervorEnglish
16·1 day agoJust follow along the trajectory from previous Elder Scrolls games. It worked so far:
- Improve graphics
- Make world smaller, but add more dungeons
- Dumb down character creation and magic system
- Leave bugs from previous games in
Behold the perfect map:
- all areas have correct relative size
- rectangular map shape
- rectangular coordinates
- zero distortion along equator
- centered on date line, not some irrelevant Bri’ish town
- aspect ratio (width/height) is π
- developed by a mathematician

mech@feddit.orgtoAskHistorians•What is your quintessential example of a historical ruling or law of unintended consequences?English
4·2 days agoLegalism in China was the philosophy that if laws regulate every aspect of life and are strictly enforced for everyone equally, including local rulers, the state will function and justice will prevail, even if the local rulers are corrupt or incompetent.
This lead to harsh punishments for breaking the letter of the law, regardless of intent or circumstances, even if what the law demanded was impossible to do.
So a ruler could be sentenced to death for a failure that was outside of his control, and have no other alternative than to rebel against the emperor, even if he was actually loyal to him.

The dueling minigame goes into muscle memory, as well.
And it uses the same timing, mechanics and keys as the dancing minigame.
