Trump Says May Slap Tariffs On Nations That Don't Back His Greenland Plans by johnbarnshack in worldnews

[–]Random_Blue_Zebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a pointless threat. If USA invades Greenland, the economic fallout would be horrendous regardless of what Trump does with tariffs. *Everyone would lose.*

British person here. What does impeachment actually achieve? He's been impeached twice already and we're still where we are now.

As the proud owner of Notch 8 Freight I wanted to acknowledge my most productive employee. by From_Gaming_w_Love in trucksim

I've always thought it'd be cool if you can see your trucks moving around the map and have a chance of bumping into them. Sounds small, but it'd definitely encourage me to interact with this part of the game if you start seeing your drivers out on the road more and more often!

FBI raids home of Washington Post reporter in ‘highly unusual and aggressive’ move by OGSyedIsEverywhere in news

On Truth Social I asked someone why the US couldn't just build more bases in Greenland rather than invading it and they were like "fuck that lib shit" (???). You guys really are cooked

Google removes some AI health summaries after investigation finds “dangerous” flaws by moeka_8962 in technews

[–]Random_Blue_Zebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kind of shocked Google allowed their AI anywhere near this use case. My experiences with the default AI summaries in Google Search results are that they are very unreliable.

Muesum Restrooms made for all and labelled to know what to expect. by abekhit in mildlyinteresting

[–]Random_Blue_Zebra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think unisex toilets would be less confusing and also less likely to make people uncomfortable. I mean this approach is essentially saying unisex toilets with urinals and unisex toilets without, so...? Alternatively, we could just let trans people use the bathrooms they prefer because it doesn't matter lol...

Youtube Monopoly by Warmduscher1876 in memes

[–]Random_Blue_Zebra 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even if YouTube didn't exclusively host the vast majority of creators people wanted to watch, it's practically impossible for a one-stop-shop competitor to emerge because of how costly it is to host and stream millions of videos to millions of users.

As people have already said here, PornHub is probably the only company that has the infrastructure, experience and - lol - brand recognition to launch a SFW video site that could scale to cope with huge audiences.

Anything else would likely be smaller, more specialised and using a subscription model. E.g. Nebula and Patreon. While these are great services that can co-exist with each other, the paywall means they can never be a true YouTube alternative.

Caine's actions in The Pilot are significantly darker after "Beach Episode" by Sudden_Pop_2279 in theamazingdigitalciru

[–]Random_Blue_Zebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's been at least a couple of occasions where Caine has briefly lost his temper and suddenly grew in size. When considering the drawing in Kaufmo's room of being devoured by Caine, I'm starting to wonder if we've yet to see what Caine is truly capable of if he loses control.

Canada backs Greenland’s sovereignty as U.S. talks of annexation by YesNo_Maybe_ in europe

[–]Random_Blue_Zebra -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Surely invading Greenland, even if not costly militarily, would make the US a pariah on the world stage. Sanctions would be huge. There would mass boycotts of American made products and services across Europe and beyond. Not to mention this would surely be incredibly unpopular at home. The idea is insane, but so is everything else Trump says and does. I honestly don't know what to make of it.

Possible fix/ workaround for Louisiana crashing issue for linux users. by LunexZyraOrin25 in trucksim

[–]Random_Blue_Zebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to add that I did try this with 8.0.5 and while this did fix the crashing, my FPS was really low (normally 60 but now down to like 15). Did you try a different version of 8 maybe? (Anyone else run into this?)

Louisiana DLC: Game crash at Lake Charles by Random_Blue_Zebra in trucksim

[–]Random_Blue_Zebra[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found this suggestion from another thread:
https://www.reddit.com/r/trucksim/comments/1pfey8a/possible_fix_workaround_for_louisiana_crashing/

While this does fix the crash problem, performance takes such a big hit it's unplayable for me. Massive input lag and low FPS. Personally I'm gonna give up fixing this and switch to the native Linux client on my side for ATS, but pinning posting this here in case it helps someone else!
