BG4 is going to be BGOnline 😂

This article is talking about Colombia, so I thought you were comparing Norway to Colombia. It would be interesting to see the Nordic model applied to the US. There are 370m Americans vs 5m Norwegians but our government budget per capita could theoretically be closer

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_government_budget_per_capita

Norway has a budget of $36k to spend per citizen and the US $20k. Say we raised our possible budget to $36k I wonder what impact that would make. $16k x 370m Americana would be ~$6b dollars. Looks like annual spend on US Medicare is $808b, so we couldn’t even offer free healthcare. It seems like the US would need to be ground up rebuilt.

Not disagreeing with you, but Norway is the way it is because it sells oil and it has been enough revenue over the years to provide for it’s citizens. Many countries can’t follow this model.

Use localxpose, it’s great and well priced.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Maybe it’s my client? Can you downvote me?

Why the fuck can’t we downvote in lemmy anymore is the real question?

Well at least they have downvotes 😂

Affirm is a big one. Bloomberg spent the past few weeks talking with the Affirm CEO.

I works for me without a user agent change if I enter through the Microsoft 365 teams workspace and not a teams share link.

Does this work well with X11 -> Wayland communication? Or do both computers need to be Wayland?

Is Larian considered a massive studio? On Wikipedia is says Larian is 450 people and on LinkedIn it says Owlcat is 201. I assume that Larian didn’t have everyone working on BG3 given their other efforts, so isn’t the total headcount not that far apart?

They should have cut off her meal plan instead!

Sorry… going to hell for that joke. I commend her for standing up against two big institutions and putting herself out there for us.

Interesting. I saw the Qidi X-Plus 3 advertises 600mm/s vs Bambu P1S 500mm/s. And the P1S doesn’t offer a heated chamber. Have you noticed a difference in quality from the heated chamber?

I haven’t yet been convinced of the bambu cool-aid mainly because of closed software. Klipper support is a big value prop. Who knows how long bambu will support OS versions and what happens if they start charging for cloud. It’s a young company, so not a lot of confidence yet.

Looks like a sweet printer. I was thinking of buying a Bambu for the holidays, but this looks like a better deal.

What 3D printer do you have? The print looks good.

I understand something like a GMC Suburban or a Cadillac Escalade, but the Porsche Macan (in article thumbnail) and many other compact SUVs take up the same curb space and about the same weight and length as a standard sedan.

• Porsche Macan (SUV): 4400lbs, 186.1"
• Honda CRV (SUV): 3285lbs, 184.8"
• Audi A4 (sedan): 3700lbs, 187.5"
• Pegeout 508 (sedan): 3290lbs, 187"

vs

• Cadillac Escalade (SUV): 6200lbs, 211"
• Range Rover (SUV): 6025lbs, 207"

Unless they put weighted meters at every parking space, would be interesting to see how they enforce this. Compact-SUVs are useful and are well equipped for their weight (AWD, safety features, space-efficient).

Here is a cool chart showing weight vs road wear. Not sure how scientific it is, but shows cars around 4000lbs are considered normal wear.

Unless the goal is to move drivers to the subcompact-sedan form factor.

• Mini Cooper: 3144lbs, 159.1"
• Citreon C3: 2226lbs, 156.7"

Then they could make low cost parking spaces ~170" long and any cars that do not fit in that would have to go in the bigger spaces with a higher rate. Very curious how they would implement it without costing the tax payer too much.

I’d call the genre cowboy bebop, but wouldn’t want to insult the show
