  • Western Digital details 14-platter 3.5-inch HAMR HDD designs with 140 TB and beyond

    Jump

  • I find it still mind blowing that HDD still improves the storage density to this day. Especially that something like HAMR works reliably and fast feels kind of crazy.

  • If you are talking about the golden knight, you meet after emerging from the dungeon: yeah, this one is really hard and you can skip him until much later.

    There is a small tutorial area, that is easily missed. After spawning into a new game, there is a big hole in the ground, jump down there (I think there is a guy or a message telling you to do it) and you learn the basics about fighting and other mechanics. Also with an adequately challenging mini boss at the end.

  • Merz is right to reject Germany’s nuclear phase-out, IEA chief says

    Jump

  • Maybe in hindsight it would have been better to have kept the nuclear power running, phasing out coal first and limit our CO2 emissions. (Who am I kidding, we would still emit the same amount of CO2, because we would have phased out coal already and Germany is only 2% of the problem...) But maybe we avoided fallout in central Europe and noone will know, which version of the past we decided against.

  • OneDrive Alternative

    Jump

  • Sounds like a good solution with a reasonable price for storage. I am a little sceptical, when I read good privacy and ai picture search on the same page. Is this possible without the provider having full access to all the data?

  • Thanks for the suggestion. This looks like a good out of the box solution like Dropbox.

  • AMD say the Steam Machine is "on track" for an early 2026 release

    Jump

  • Is the next console generation already launching next year, or is it just the xbox? Does seem like yesterday, when the ps5 released...

  • LLM's despite all the flaws it probably made it easier to switch to Linux. Have a stupid or niche question no need to be judge just ask an LLM.

    Jump

  • I have mixed experiences with LLMs and linux. While it helped a lot with the basics, like what partitions are needed and how to set them up or how to prepare the bios, it failed miserably, when my mint Installation on my old laptop would not boot. It got into a loop suggesting the same not working solution over and over again. The first normal search result had the correct solution that worked flawlessly (some problem with asus laptops).

  • Coworker wants to try Linux with gaming, Bazzite or Mint?

    Jump

  • I would also be frustrated, if it did break twice. Happy to hear you found something that works. I also found CashyOs really interesting. What turned me away was the fact that it is based on arch and I read everywhere that arch is hard for newcomers to Linux. But maybe this does not apply to cachy. If nobara should break some day, i think this will be the next distro I will test.

    Jump

  • I’m running on AMD hardware, which might help. However, I thought Nobara offers a special edition for NVIDIA GPUs to ensure better compatibility. Also, from what I understand, there’s a lot of optimization under the hood in Nobara, and it’s recommended not to change the base packages. Maybe this does include the desktop environment as well...

  • How well does matrix hold up in comparison to Session or SimpleX? Maybe i have been living under a rock, but i did not hear much about them.

  • Coworker wants to try Linux with gaming, Bazzite or Mint?

    Jump

  • I switched from win11 to nobara about 2 months ago and so far am really happy with it. Anything i should look out for that could avoid 'breaking' it?

  • Meta progression in roguelites was fun for a while, but it's starting to feel unrewarding

    Jump

  • Same for me. The start of the game was great. The difficulty just right. But most of the new characters are too strong. I stopped playing after I unlocked the duo upgrade, because there was simply no challenge left. I enjoyed it long enough to still recommend it for the price, but i feel like there is so much of the game left and I am somehow sorry I will never play it...

  • Operation Sovereignty - Germany plans a breakthrough from M$

    Jump

  • I hope they follow through with it. And I also hope they allow for quick incremental changes instead of aiming for the perfect solution right away that will take a decade to develop and implement. Just to be clear, I think it should be the far goal to be fully independent from US and other non-EU software.

  • As US influence wanes, the Chinese trade surplus strangles manufacturing across the globe

    Jump

  • Everyone was happy when they could outsource dirty and labor-intensive jobs to China and benefit from the cheap products. China gladly took on these tasks and built a monopoly. Now, it is the sole source for most minerals and rare earth elements because everyone else stopped producing them. China is now moving up the value chain, processing these raw materials into higher-value products. However, the world has become so dependent on China’s mineral supplies that countries cannot block trade with China without risking their own production halts, since China could also stop selling the materials they rely on. This is already happening with rare earth minerals and other critical resources like tungsten.

    Only way put of this would be a long time strategic investment into local manufacturing capacities, but it will cost a lot and take a lot of time. And China will dump the prices until those companies go out of business again and then we are back at the start. Happened with solar, is happening with batteries, I wonder what will be next...

  • As US influence wanes, the Chinese trade surplus strangles manufacturing across the globe

    Jump

  • Somehow, statistics rarely reflect the massive trade surplus the U.S. enjoys in digital services. Link The country deliberately shifted its focus away from manufacturing, outsourcing production globally. With the freed-up capacity, it built a digital empire that generates billions of dollars annually.

    The catch? This digital surplus flows almost exclusively into the pockets of a few corporate leaders. Meanwhile, the majority of people are left with shrinking incomes from former manufacturing jobs, jobs that once distributed wealth more evenly across small businesses and the workforce.
