14·2 months agoYou might already know this, but it’s not originally a RatM song.
It’s by Afrika Bambaataa and Soulsonic Force
RatM did do a lot to make it their own thing though, and it’s a great cover.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you feel like popular media using a game of Chess to depict a "battle of wits" to be too cliche/cringe?English
6·2 months agoIn some sense this is correct. Chess strategy is fairly well documented, and a skilled player will know quite a bit of how a game will play out based on a given board state.
In another sense, there are something like 10^46 legal board states that can be reached from the starting state across all legal permutations of the game rules.
It’s functionally impossible for a person to know the outcome of a game from the first move.
You’re right, just add

11·2 months agoDebian 13 was a new Debian release in June. Meaning the devs and sid/unstable users had done enough to determine that the sometimes 5 year old “new features” in the packages were stable.
I love Debian for it’s stability. Makes it great in the homelab. The devs will back port security patches from upstream, but features (especially potentially breaking features) get years of testing before being implemented in the stable release. Even sid (their testing branch) is more stable than most other distros main branch.
But all of that means that the actual features in the packages released for Debian are ancient, especially by gaming standards.
Which is to say, Debian 13, at the time of release, had about as much bleeding edge as a stone sphere.

21·3 months agoMcDonald’s in Japan is actually pretty good.
Which speaks more to the general quality of food in Japan rather than the quality of Japanese McDonald’s. You can get better food at basically any other restaurant in the country.
But still, it tastes like actual food, unlike American, Australian, and Italian McDonald’s.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Is game streaming too late to get into?English
8·3 months agoEvery time I’ve seen major streamers asked similar questions, the answer has usually been “just do it.” If you enjoy it, keep doing it, if you don’t stop.
In all likelihood, early on you might get the occasional singular viewer, but otherwise you won’t get much, which will provide you with time to get used to talking and narrating while playing, as well as develop some kind of style or tone that you want to go for.
As for concerns over what people think of you, as you get more comfortable with things, you’ll find an audience who enjoys what you’re doing. It’s kind of the nature of the platform. You’ll also get people who don’t like what you’re doing and really want to tell you about it, that’s also the nature of the platform. They can be ignored and/or banned if it’s bad enough. Probably a good idea to set some stream rules early on and enforce them.
But at the end of the day, what matters is that you’re having fun.

Anime@ani.social•What is your best anime-related song?English
2·3 months agoThe opening for Watamote, I really like. The anime itself is pretty bad, though it was fun to drunkenly watch with a friend. - This
Tank! from Cowboy Bebop is one of my favorite classics, though really the entire Bebop OST could be on that list.
OP1 from Ranma 1/2 is a fun listen.
And every Creepy Nuts song in Call of the Night is an absolute banger.
ED1 - Yofukashi no Uta
OP1 - Daten
ED2 - Nemure
OP2 - Mirage
And several other insert songs. Easily some of my favorite anime music atm.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I didn't want to use AI, so I made something that detects it!English
3·3 months agoI’m far from an expert and have never setup borg, but I see some possible problems with that config, though I don’t think I see anything that would cause it fail.
-
In the environment section of borg, borgmatic, and borgweb, the “BORG_PASSPHRASE” variable is used inconsitently, it either needs to be uncommented in borg or commented out in borgmatic and borgweb.
-
Networks: having a single “backup_net” network is less than ideal from a security standpoint. Nginx should probably be in it’s own network (an ipvlan or macvlan network) in addition to the backup_net. backup_net should be isolated to the host that are running borg, while any communication into borg should be routed through nginx on its ip.

Tolkien never really makes it clear what happens to men when they die.
The closest thing we get to a statement on it that “their souls go beyond the circles of the world…to dwell with illuvatar.”
Dwarves are even less clear. It’s likely the same as Men but they seem to have their own beliefs on the topic. They believe that they go to the “Halls of Waiting to await the renewal of the world.”
Hobbits, being a mannish race, are the same as Men.
Orcs also are unclear. Tolkien wrote multiple origins for the orcs, none of which made it into his canon books, just his notes that were compiled into the histories.
If they are purely creations of Melkor then killing them would simply destroy them, as they aren’t truly alive. Whereas if they are corrupted Elves and Men they would likely experience the same death as their race of origin.
It’s also worth noting that Elves don’t truly have an afterlife. They have a period of waiting in the Halls of Mandos after which they are reclothed in flesh and can choose to either return to Middle-Earth or remain in valinor.
Also, Frodo, Bilbo, and Sam as ring-bearers were allowed to sail west and live on Tol Eresea, an Island near Valinor so that their injuries from bearing the ring (and in Frodo’s case the morgul blade) wouldn’t bother them. They still only lived out their natural life span and then died the death of Men.
