Disclaimer: Not an expert on this.

It was previously not really possible to send money digitally directly, except in the form of cyptocurrency. It always goes through banks or intermediaries. If you transfer money between bank accounts, the banks have to talk to each other to do so, and the "real" transfer happens between their central bank accounts at a later point in time. There is indeed only spreadsheets with numbers going up and down. Effectively the banks are in control of all of it. In most cases we don't want a slow bank transfer but some sort of user-friendly payment portal like PayPal or wero, which the banks also need to have contracts with (or, operate themselves).

My vague understanding here is that this process is completely detached from banks, and that you are thus transferring actual money. It's not just numbers in a spreadsheet going up and down.

If anybody understands it better please correct anything I got wrong.

What does that mean? Without looking it up I would say, "pretty case", so a good example?

People assume you're being a dick, I read this as a joke from one parent to another lol

I think the dawn of neoliberalism under Reagan and the 2008 crisis are essential. 9/11 was just a great sensation to focus on

Left unity: Working together despite disagreements, and engaging in discourse to make compromises and reach agreements

Tankie left unity: Nobody disagrees with me

(That's my real problem with tankies. I don't care that much if they're delusional, it's that there is no space for other leftists in their worldview)

I'm German but became fluent in English before school so I consider myself native. Anyway what I'm trying to say is I'm really good at being bad in two languages at the same time

I'm a native speaker I'm just dumb

I just wish there was a normal German meme or shitposting community but there isn't

I'm constantly switching back and forth between Hack and Fira Code.

OnlyFans verbieten aber pornhub mäßig Porno über Werbung finanzieren geht noch? das ist so lost

Edit:

Ah okay. "Wie Euractiv weiter ausführt, geht es in der Neuregelung explizit um live ausgestrahlte und von außen angestoßene beziehungsweise beeinflusste Aufnahmen, vorher aufgezeichnete Videos bleiben demnach legal."

Das heißt doch, dass OnlyFans nicht verboten ist, sondern nur Inhalte die auf Anfrage gemacht werden? mMn trotzdem kontraproduktiv

People have offered great advice, one special case: Does your phone still have microUSB for some reason? In that case you might just need a new cable

"Wait I remember borrowing that to somebody, but who was it again?" - it's gone

"I swear I saw it yesterday" - search as long as you want, you will find it by accident mere moments after you no longer need it

"I remember I put that in a specific place for safekeeping" - will resurface when you move

 

Hi!

I've been learning Bevy and LOVING IT, there's only one thing confusing me. Many components appear to be created magically even if not specified in the Bundle passed to commants.spawn.

For example, when I spawn just a Sprite component, the entity seems to automatically get a Transform component, even if I didn't give it one.

Similarly, this example spawns a Screenshot component, which apparently results in a Capturing component that can be queried later.

Are these "implicit" components documented somewhere? I took a short look at the TransformPlugin for example but I can't seem to figure out where these components come from.

Thanks y'all!

 
 

Hey friends!

Basically, here is my problem. I open the launcher menu (or KRunner) and start typing. Let's say I type "firefox", and hit Enter.

The launcher menu is very slow. It often opens "Files" instead, because that pops up after I type the first two letters.

Basically this means I need to wait a second for the launcher to finish searching, show me firefox, and then press enter.

This is frankly infuriating. Every other launcher on any other desktop or WM does not have this issue.

I have experienced this on two different machines running both Plasma 5 and 6, on different distros, both are beefy machines.

I'm sure there is a way to avoid it, does anybody know?

 

This isn't strictly a Pathfinder thing but I like this community.

Basically, there is this meme that Human Figher is a "boring" default choice or sign of an uncreative character. I disagree. Picking out a weird ancestry is not creative. Choosing a human fighter basically means that you get zero flavor from your ancestry and class - so you are forced to get creative yourself. You are forced to give your character a personality, and you are forced to solve problems creatively.

For me, the stereotype is the opposite - if a player chooses an esoteric ancestry and class combo, I worry that their characters whole personality is just their ancestry.

Of course both humans and other ancestries make for great characters if done right.

 

I stumbled upon this and couldn't find any definite answers.

The Escape action states that you can use Athletics, Acrobatics, or your unarmed attack modifier. However, it specifically says that you use your modifier and not an actual attack. While fists have the Finesse trait, the regular attack does not - so am I correct in assuming that if you have a higher Dex than Str, that you can only use Dex with acrobatics, not with the unarmed attack modifier?
