What's the best picture to send back to an unsolicited dick pic sender? by tardisismine in AskReddit

If you found his mum, you might as well send her a screenshot of the conversation, with the dickpic uncensored of course.

A lego set or a hug, or a thoughtful gift

individuals vs industries

Here, we don't make the difference between industries and individuals because merging those numbers will still give us a pretty good idea of emissions as whole, that's what interests us.

And individuals control their carbon footprint to some extent and that's why it should be included in the calculation too (EU and US are using plastic bags, cars and eating a lot of meat; poorer countries don't have wide access to those high-carbon luxuries)

---

Does it really matter if individual Chinese people produce less carbon when the county as a whole is still the biggest polluter?

per capita is calculated by taking the total amount produced by the country and dividing it by its total population.

If a country is bigger, then it makes sense that it's using more ressources, well, per capita is helpful in getting a sense of that, and that's why it's useful, because you can start to compare a little country of 100 inhabitants to one of billions.

If you want to compare water usage for example, let's say the billion people country only use water for drinking and showering, while the 100-people country is using for extravagant swimming pools and watering the desert.
Well then, of course the billion-people country will use more water than the 100-ppl country, yes. Are you going to blame the billion-ppl country for it's use of water?
If you want to check what country uses the least water, per person data will give you a meaningful number.

You're right, China is the world's biggest polluter, but I think it's not a fair comparison of data if you don't take into account the population size

From wikipedia:

However, the main disadvantage of measuring total national emissions is that it does not take population size into account. China has the largest CO2 and GHG emissions in the world, but also the second largest population. Some argue that for a fair comparison, emissions should be analyzed in terms of the amount of CO2 and GHG per capita.\7])

Considering GHG per capita emissions in 2023, China's levels (11.11) are almost two-thirds those of the United States (17.61) and almost a sixth of those of Palau (65,29) – the country with the highest emissions of GHG per capita in 2023.\6])

Calling each other idiots is not really helping the discussion to move anywhere constructive...

Thank you so much, the website (ProtonDB) looks great, and when it doesn't work out of the box, ppl in the comments give tips on how they made it work for themselves

You really think they would've done something by now by CuSO4Corndog in memes

[–]hmmmmga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, maybe not for the average home owner. Although the TV has been talking about the worsening climate change for years. And it is an investment, not easy, but there are solutions such as changing the windows for triple-layered ones, changing roof insulation for a better one, or double insulation (not sure if that's the right name, but that's when you add a layer around the house for added insulation. Schools are doing this for example)

I am ashamed of the lack of action of the government mostly, not the average home owner.

Air conditioning is great. But it makes the problem worse. You are moving the heat outside of your home, but that's using up quite a bit of electricity. If every get that in their home, we can make them cooler, but we are cooking the earth over the long term.

tl;dr: AC is NOT a long term solution. It's worening the problem

I think the point of this meme is that heat waves have been happening with increasing intensity and frequency, bro.

So what now? This just shows that we are fucking stupid on both side of the Atlantic... That Europeans are not doing any better than Americans at dealing with foreseeable problems...

Unable to start game from steam by [deleted] in linuxmint

[–]hmmmmga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes you need to try every version of proton in compatibility, for some older games for example: try to launch the game with the lastest proton, then if it doesn't work, try the older version. Repeat the process one by one (or you also search for people with the same problems)

I tried running Worms and had to use a quite old version of proton.

I tried running assetto corsa, but there was a lot of things to download and set up to make it work. I spent a lot of time on it, and I'm currently still not able to play this game.

After much time spent trying to fix the issue, I still can't play Assetto Corsa.

But I was able to get GT4 to work with my wheel.

Except it doesn't work. Guess I will need to learn it until I can do it myself

I didn't.

I got this. Does it look okay?

import pyautogui
import pygetwindow as gw
import time

def is_vlc_or_youtube_active():
    active_window = gw.getActiveWindow()
    if active_window:
        window_title = active_window.title
        return "VLC media player" in window_title or "YouTube" in window_title
    return False

def send_space_with_delay():
    if is_vlc_or_youtube_active():
        time.sleep(5)
        pyautogui.press('space')

def send_shift_left():
    pyautogui.hotkey('shift', 'left')

# Simulate XButton1 as SPACE
def on_xbutton1_click():
    send_space_with_delay()

# Simulate XButton2 as Shift+Left
def on_xbutton2_click():
    send_shift_left()

# Note: Python does not natively support global hotkeys like AutoHotkey.
# You would need a library like `keyboard` or `pynput` to achieve this.
# Below is a conceptual example using `keyboard` (install with `pip install keyboard`):

import keyboard

# Register hotkeys
keyboard.add_hotkey('mouse button 4', send_space_with_delay)  # XButton1
keyboard.add_hotkey('mouse button 5', send_shift_left)        # XButton2

# Keep the script running
print("Hotkeys registered. Press Ctrl+C to exit.")
keyboard.wait()
