You are asking for 1TB of RAM. Keying it to M.2 wouldn’t make it any cheaper or better than keying it to regular DDR5. I don’t think that even just a tenth of that would physically fit onto an NVMe drive, even if someone wanted it to.

Put in that context, do you begin to see now why that isn’t a thing that exists?

Me too! I upgraded to Fedora Linux. It’s amazing how everything just works, even all the games I play.

Your experience is not invalid, but It’s fucked up that you’re giving Windows credit for “just working” when Windows doesn’t even try to support dual booting. In fact the reason Linux is having so much trouble is because it has to tiptoe so that Windows doesn’t break.

If you don’t like Gnome or Mint Cinnamon, why not try KDE? Something like Kubuntu, perhaps? I use Fedora KDE myself.

• Veganism?

Hold up, you think the vegans are in the wrong? You can say that they’re annoying, but in terms of ethics and morals it’s not even an argument. It’s fine to not like tofu or whatever, but there is no amount of verbal gymnastics anyone can do to even begin to justify the modern meat and dairy industries. That shit is basically Animal Auschwitz times a billion.

Yes, I understand that. Perhaps I was not empathetic enough, I am sorry to hear that about your family being deceived, along with the rest of mainland China.

The fact that the oppressive CCP won does not mean they were right. The world is not a Disney movie, the good guys don’t always win.

“Vindicated” just means that the good guys were good. Whether or not they won.

It’s possible English isn’t your first language? No worries.

The word “vindicated” doesn’t mean “won in the end,” it means “they were right.” As in, justified in their demands, on the right side of history. Even of the protests I listed in my first comment, half of them didn’t actually win in the end (Vietnam, Occupy, Gaza, and arguably more).

From Wikipedia:

…(the Seven Demands) for the government:

1. Affirm Hu Yaobang’s views on democracy and freedom as correct.
2. Admit that the campaigns against spiritual pollution and bourgeois liberalisation had been wrong.
3. Publish information on the income of state leaders and their family members.
4. Allow privately run newspapers and stop press censorship.
5. Increase funding for education and raise intellectuals’ pay.
6. End restrictions on demonstrations in Beijing.
7. Provide objective coverage of students in official media.[84][83]

I hope that you’d agree that the students were in the right, and that the oppressive CCP was in the wrong?

Thank you for bringing those up. However, unless I’m misunderstanding them, the only one of those where the protesters were in the wrong were the pro-segregation protests, correct? But weren’t those protests by-and-large made up of parents? (Perhaps along with some of their children doing what they were told?) Not exactly the “rebellious youth sticking it to the man” we generally mean by the words student protest.

Let’s see…

• Nazism
• McCarthyism
• Vietnam War
• Racial Injustice
• South African Apartheid
• Occupy Wall Street
• Gaza Genocide
• etc.

I am curious. Has there ever been a wide-scale student protest movement that WASN’T unequivocally vindicated by history?

From the looks of it you can create your own character? So you might not even need to mod it to do that.

Anything where it doesn’t matter if I get distracted at any given point, e.g. turn-based or otherwise non-time-sensitive games.

• Incremental games (Chillquarium, Pegidle, Synergism, etc.)
• Powerwash Simulator
• Geotastic (with time limit turned off)
• Slay the Spire, or other deckbuilding roguelites
• Dominion
• FTL: Faster Than Light / Multiverse
• Civilization VI
• Picross/Piczle Cross and similar games

Ignoring them is easy, but there are prerequisites. To remain unaffected, you and everyone you know and love will need to NOT be:

• Black
• Caribbean
• African
• Latino
• Native American
• South Asian
• East Asian
• Filipino
• Ukrainian
• European
• Jewish
• Arabic
• Muslim
• transgender
• gay
• nonbinary
• someone with a uterus
• queer
• in the military
• poor
• middle-class
• empathetic
• employed by the federal government
• employed by a corporation
• holding investments
• holding a bank account
• dependent on buying or selling products or services
• looking to live in an apartment or house
• hungry
• breathing clean air
• drinking clean water
• wanting to fly in US airspace
• sick
• injured
• susceptible to pathogens
• concerned with financial corruption
• a voter
• etc.*

*Note that list is not comprehensive, up to and including whoever Trump and Musk decide to disenfranchise tomorrow, in order to distract everyone from whoever they disenfranchised yesterday.

Am I missing something? You don’t have to precook lasagna noodles, you put them straight in the lasagna and they cook in the sauce.

You sound like you’d like the types of videos posted to /c/mealtimevideos@lemmy.cafe

Also these types of creators are commonly on nebula.tv, if you want to support them directly.

Polyglotism. Being able to speak every language would be practically a superpower.

They call those “podcasts” nowadays. But in the spirit of your question, I’ll say my favorite is Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me.

Valve has always been pretty awful at granular privacy. For the longest time, no settings between “hide literally everything” and “broadcast to everyone I know every time I purchase or play anything.”

Still no setting between those two options, but at least it’s on a game-by-game basis now.

Palworld specifically campaigned for the “better with friends” award.

It’s unfortunate. Games don’t get nominated by being apt for the category, they get nominated by being popular. Heck, last year RDR2 won in this category, and it’s never had any community support beyond a bug fix patch or two.

This whole thing is a popularity contest, for the most part. No way anyone nominating or voting in these awards has played more than a few of the eligible games.

That’s a valid concern, hopefully Lenovo is smart enough to not insert themselves in the software pipeline between Valve and their customers.

Also I really don’t understand why staggered joysticks are the standard.

In case you were actually curious, here is the reverse timeline:

• Staggered joysticks are the standard because Microsoft Xinput is the standard.
• Xinput is the standard because for about a decade, it was the one controller interface that actually worked without issue for a lot of people.
• Microsoft controllers worked for a lot of people on PC because Microsoft controlled the most popular console and the most popular OS. Sony and Nintendo had no interest in supporting their controllers for PC.
• Microsoft maintained a similar controller layout to their original Xbox console.
• The original Xbox controller was designed before the advent of popular dual-stick games (the first of which was the original Halo). At the time, the right control stick was seen as a secondary control for the camera in third person platformers (see also the c-stick on the Gamecube).
• The original Xbox controller design was cribbed from the Dreamcast, which was to-date the nicest and most ergonomic controller. The Xbox design added the second control stick below the buttons.

Also of note:

• The only other dual-stick design at the time was that of the Playstation, on which both control sticks were secondary, an afterthought not even present on the original PS1 controller. Making the left control stick “primary” was progress.
• Nintendo briefly ended up in the same boat as Sony, when they added secondary control sticks to the original SNES design to create the Wii Classic Controller.
• The only controller that tried to make both control sticks primary was the Nintendo Wii U, which unfortunately failed for unrelated reasons. I had one, and the symmetry was glorious, for those few brief years.
• Nintendo relented and went with the staggered design for the release of the Nintendo Switch, on which the asymmetry was necessary in order for both joycons to also be able to function as separate controllers.
