Saw the video of people playing on this the other day and it was really cool and the engineering was insane.

It’s funny though, this in non physical from has been around for 20+ years. I remember playing Kung Fu Chess with people back in the day which is basically this and it looks like it’s still around.

This exact mechanic is present in the Mistborn book series. I don’t want to give spoilers because I recommend the books so highly, but I love the hard science nature of the way the magic system interacts with physics.

(For fans of Sanderson/Cosmere) But it could be fire …

Your first comment made it sound like they are hitting you on purpose. This comment makes it sound more like the infrastructure is not conductive to cycling and therefore it’s dangerous to cycle in your area. I grew up in northeast Cincinnati and am an avid cyclist, and the second comment lines up with my experience while the first, that reads as if people are actively trying to hit you, doesn’t line up with my experience. I think that is why you are getting down voted.

The article mentions he called 911 to surrender about an hour or two after it started.

It depends on what you feel about the future of technology. Most productivity growth comes from advances in technology. We haven’t hit a maximum yet, so it’s a question of if you think technology will or won’t enable us to do more in the same amount of time for the indefinite future.

Constant productivity growth could allow it without constant population growth, as long as products growth exceeds impacts from population decline. This report is basically saying they don’t see that happening.

Just got a steam deck and love it. I also got the official dock and can’t believe how bad it is. I have to unplug it and my TV half the time to get the dock to connect correctly. It works fine for a few days, then stops. I’ve had picture issues and audio issues and even issues with the deck right after disconnecting it.

I used the first two, but just enjoy the experience of sync better. If sync didn’t exist, I’d be just fine and happy still. But I currently browse Lemmy 30 minutes to an hour each day, so $20 for no ads is something I’ll probably eventually pay for the hundreds of hours I’ll use the app.

Sync and Connect are the two apps I’ve used and both have the capability of doing this. Let me know if you need help finding the settings.

This isn’t unusual for Enterprise grade IT hardware. Mainframes have been sold/licensed that way for decades. I recently dealt with a performance issue that we solved by buying a license to use more of a piece of hardware that was already in our data center (we didn’t realize the piece we owned had twice the capacity that could be unlocked just through licensing till we engaged the vendor)
