About 200 million trillion times the entire global GDP

So on a serious note that translates to about 20 decillion dollars. Aka 20 billion trillion trillion dollars. For reference the entire global GDP is about 110 trillion dollars. So Russia is asking about 200 million trillion times as much as the entire global GDP

One phrase, but two words. Its less analogous to why and more like "because of/for what". In English its just one word but in Spanish its actually a phrase. Funnily enough, porque means because and is one word. To make matters worse there's also porqué and por que which mean slightly diferentes things

Upcoming 6v6 tests in Season 14

Wasn't one of the whole points for making Overwatch 2 a separate thing was that it was 5v5 now? (Apart from the shelved PvE) And now they're looking at adding it back? Fucking geniuses, man.

There's also a bunch of female names taken from the various forms of John, like Juana or Jeanne in Spanish and French

Literally nothing. They've just been figuring out how to add them to the main versions. I think it only took this long because there was no way to use them on pocket edition

Thinking about making the big switch – recommend me a distro! (lemmy.ca)

Hey all, I've been thinking about making the jump from Windows to Linux as my daily-driver and I've been struggling on what distro to use.

On my laptop I've been using Fedora's KDE Spin for a bit but I can't say I really like KDE all that much. I took that Distrochooser test and 9/10 of the suggestions were all Ubuntu-based or Arch-based for some reason lol.

I would prefer a distro that "just works" but I'm not scared of having to troubleshoot or fix things. I guess I'm just looking to see what everyone else uses and what you all recommend. Thanks!

Linux way way slower than Windows? (lemmy.ca)

So I jumped ship from Windows to Kubuntu last night, and It's mostly been pretty good. However my general performance of the computer has been abysmal. Like it takes upwards of 5 seconds to open anything. All of my hardware seems to be running at max speeds, so I have no idea why it would be so sluggish? It's as if I'm running on 2gb of ram and a cpu at like 1.5ghz. My specs are:

i7-8700k at 4.7mhz max Amd Rx 6750xt 16gb ram at 3200mhz Linux is on an m.2

Any ideas? This is practically unusable for any normal operations, let alone any gaming.

Update: So it seems like my CPU is being throttled to it's min of 800mhz because the temp is just below 100c. Not sure why it's so high because I never got that high even in intensive gaming on Windows

Discord Alternatives? (lemmy.ca)
 

publicado de forma cruzada desde: https://lemmy.ca/post/4644932

Hi all, I'm looking for some Discord alternatives. All I really need is the ability to do voice calls and screen shares. It can be either via DM or channels, I only need to it be able to speak with a few friends that'd be open to moving over. I've tried Matrix/Element but there doesn't seem to be a screen share function. There's Teamspeak but I don't think that's FOSS nor does it support screen shares as well. Any other options? Basically just voice calls and screen shares is all I need, I couldn't care about channels or servers or whatever other functionalities Discord has put into their app. Thanks!
