@mhoye It would actually be more doable in the US since our electric rates are usually in the 8 to 15 cents per Kwh range, while European power is 30-60 cents per kwh. If you run that 3000w card for 8 hours a day it'll cost you $320 per month just to run your computer over there. OTOH, most AAA games can be made to run on a 15 watt steamdeck, so it's only graphics whores that need to worry.
@mhoye Our circuits are actually a split 230v for most homes, with the center tap being connected to neutral/ground, so most appliances just use one half of the transformer. If you use the entire transformer, you get 230v. Except in apartments where such things run off 208v instead because they're going across two legs of the 3 phase. We usually have 2-3 circuits wired up for 230v in the house, so if we wanted to run higher end computers we could just install another.
@fribbledom The last time I was this uninterested in a console launch was the Xbox Series X.
Darn, instead of going to another site, this one's just ending translation. https://mangadex.org/title/f672fa94-d116-46d4-96ea-4d88b0ab1f35/tensei-arasaa-joshi-no-kotoyo-kaikatsu-seiryaku-kekkon-wa-iya-na-no-de-zatsugaku-chishiki-de
@anime I went on there today and most of what I saw on the front page was Korean, though there was one or two Chinese comics, but that's similar to how many Mangadex had.
@anime Two of the comics I read have said they're moving to Batoto, but it's probably going to be arbitrary where most of them move.
@anime Wow, I just realized that Isekai Walking isn't getting updates there anymore, but I found it on other sites. I imagine I'm going to have to start putting individual comics in rss feeds to keep track of them instead of reading them all on one site.
@anime I started buying Corinth/Soudouki in book form, I've actually already finished a fan translation of the web novel of Soudouki though. I've also been buying the light novels for Kumoko, I think I'm almost done with them.
@anime I haven't read the manga for it either, but I have been reading the light novels.
@anime I guess you could call it a version of this sort of villainess story. https://mangadex.org/title/092d4920-0bf3-4b3c-8c84-5027ade69e35/akuyaku-reijou-no-tsuihougo or https://mangadex.org/title/e326fcfb-ec60-4f6b-877b-ab2448c678d3/7th-time-loop-the-villainess-enjoys-a-carefree-life-married-to-her-worst-enemy , instead of starting at the beginning where they can change fate, it starts after their banishment or other terrible fate, and how they deal with life afterward.
@anime Yeah, Like I said, it's post-reincarnation of after one those scenarios, rather than being one of those. Chapter 7 is the main part that gives the backstory of that. Maybe we'll get more flashbacks in the story to the prior timeline. The main character remembers nothing of her prior life, but the god and ancient dragon remember.
https://mangadex.org/title/045ba0b0-7d6a-461f-8b75-39619f25e53f/yama-kaimashita-isekai-gurashi-mo-warukunai I like this one, I wonder if we'll get an official translation? It's sneakily one of those "Doomed Villainess" things, except post-reincarnation with no memories of it.
@hackaday Even if I did copy them all locally, there's utility libraries for running windows games under linux that I'm not sure how to backup that would have to be grabbed off the net, that steam does automatically when you launch one...
@zaitcev I've used it before, you're right about it being barely passable. If you look at the native closed caption that it auto-generates you mostly know why though. If the voice transcription was more accurate it might deliver better results on the translation. The worst part is that they sometimes shadow-ban videos based on AI-misheard closed captioning results.
@hackaday Well, I think I have 400 hours of music stored away, and maybe a few years worth of movies and tv shows that I keep putting off watching because I have them on physical media and can watch them any time. Probably 20 years worth of video games to play, and hundreds of books to read. I'd have said 30-40 years of games but probably half of them are on Steam, and may not be accessible anymore.
@pro The dependencies are there for the same reason as rpm, to save disk space. The benefit to Flatpak though is that you're not limited to one family of distros, where rpms only work properly on redhat derived distros, etc. You can also mix entire stacks of software, you could have some programs on a musl toolchain and some on a glibc toolchain and run them on the same system. Or drastically different versions of glibc at the same time. Or perhaps some programs on a kde5 and some on a kde6 base.
