    Thanks, that's a fun one :)

  • Even though I am listening to podcasts almost all the time I am outside, doing groceries, commuting, running errands, I can totally get that there are people whose brains are wired differently than mine that need what you might describe as auditory monotony because listening to familiar sounds in a familiar surrounding gives then safety and is easier on their brains.

    I don't find this surprising because most people need some degree of routines or rituals to function so I don't see why this human tendency to reduce complexity (see: Niklas Luhmann) wouldn't apply to what you're listening or not listening to.

    This doesn't have to do anything with brain rot, just that brains work differently and need different stimuli.

  • Upsi, ertappt... Hab den Artikel nicht gelesen. Ich dachte, du beziehst Dich darauf, dass Wärmepumpen grundsätzlich niedrigere Vorlauftemperaturen erreichen, als klassische Heizungen.

  • Rechte sind und bleiben halt am Ende doch nur Memmen.

  • Um den Nebeneffekt zu erreichen, kannst Du aber auch einfach Deine Vorlauftemperatur reduzieren (wenn Du nicht gerade an einer Zentralheizung hängst, die Du nicht steuern kannst).

  • I agree! The time loop was okay when I was just exploring more or less aimlessly but it got super stressful when I found a lead I wanted to follow...

  • Hmm... In my opinion you can't really compare Balatro and Brotato. You're right, both games are about making numbers big but the way, they scratch that itch is completely different in my opinion.

    Of course the gameplay loops are different and when you're more into the action oriented approach of Brotato, Balatro just might not be for you, but that's not my point: In my opinion in Brotato you build your character and when everything goes right you reach a point where you begin to scale and roll and become pretty much unstoppable for the rest of the run. In Balatro you have more RNG caused variance in the main gameplay loop so you might have a rounds where you barely win and rounds where you draw just the right cards and destroy the Blind.

    For me, a Brotato run feels kinda more "linear" while a Balatro run has more ups and downs even when going well.

  • Did you, by chance, read "Children of Time" by Adrian Tchaikovsky? 😬

  • Der Touri: "Das ist eine menschliche Tragödie! Warum tut die EU nichts dagegen?"

    Frontex: "Hold our beers! More pushbacks!"

  • In addition to the other guy who answered you: Technically you don't necessarily have to reformat you hard drive to install Linux. Many installers give you the option to resize an existing drive and install Linux alongside windows.

    Also according your steam library: As far as I remember you can export and import single games and you may be able to move your steamapps directory to your Linux installation but this may or may not work depending on your setup and your games. If you don't have a limited Internet connection I would recommend just re downloading the games your planning to play.

    Cloud saves work fine whether on Windows or Linux.

  • I really love the idea that the monks spent 16 years in silence contemplating Grönings proposal until they finally came to a conclusion. This is Jedi Master level of weirdness.

    In reality they probably forgot about it and he brought it up again after all that time.

  • That was my initial thought... Nice pickup line btw. Do you have more? :)

  • Welches OS ist denn die Waffe deine Wahl auf dem Smartphone?

  • Nö, also bei mir ist Wero einfach als Zahlungsmittel in meine Banking-App integriert.

  • Opensource wird schwer (kein Wille da), aber es gibt ja immernoch Girocard und Wero.

    Edit: Also Wero gibt's noch nicht, zumindest nicht im Handel, aber es soll kommen und wenn das halbwegs funktioniert und von den Händlern angeboten ist, sind mein PayPal-Account und meine Google-Wallet Geschichte.

  • See ya.

  • In Russia, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said: "From what we see and know, we can conclude that hundreds of thousands of Moldovans were deprived of the opportunity to vote in Russia because there were only two polling stations open to them, which was of course insufficient."

    What? Kremlin's saying their party in Moldova didn't win because they didn't manage to organize enough polling stations in Russia? Tough luck bro!
