That seems really low. Probably not many people have picked it up

Help! Screen goes static while playing game (lemmings.world)

Hi, My Pixel 7 screen goes like a static TV screen (image in link) since last night. Sometimes just locking and unlocking the phone fixes it, other times have to restart the phone. Everytime this happens, I've been playing a game. All other apps work fine and haven't seen this outside the game. Is my GPU screwed?

Ending support for Windows 10 could send 240 million computers to the landfill. Why not install Linux on them? in c/[email protected]

Which distro did you use? I have a win 10 laptop and I might switch over to a Linux distro

I have EasyList as well but recently added ConsentOMatic. That's working without hiccups if you'd like to install it

41% of fediverse instances have blocked threads so far!!! in c/technology

I'd recommend you create your instance and defederate from the 58.99%. Wouldn't miss you the slightest!

Sure they are unethical. But the millions of users who have joined them are not and they are not that tech savvy to have even heard of Fediverse. Federating with them opens 2 avenues: Possibly decrease the influence of X/Twitter as it gets more toxic and introduce general people to the concept of Fediverse and give them an option to easily migrate to one of the better Mastodon instances in future from Threads.

I believe defederating should be a user choice rather than an instance unless done for spammy/toxic instances. If instances starts to be too liberal with defederation, you create silos and introduce more hurdles for the growth of fediverse. This creates a broken up network that may not be social for everyone.

Obviously, you can be on an instance that defederates Threads.net if that's your preference.

Lets talk about physics of the speed of spaceship (lemmings.world)
 

In reality, there is (almost) no force to reduce speed in space.

It was quite unituitive to me in the beginning that when I boost the spaceship, it works lke a car on earth rather than a spaceship. I'd have liked the spaceship to continue to gain speed when either the boost was applied or you continue to throttle the engine. They could have kept a fuel limit to keep the speed in check.

What are your thoughts on this? Would you have liked this to be more based in reality or prefer the familiar car based speed/acceleration that's in the game?
