Yeah probably while making a tool/smashing something. Knocking two rocks together, create a spark on accident, boom fire.

jacksilver@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•In Canada, Nintendo is increasing the price of the original Nintendo Switch.English3·2 days agoYou’d probably be better served by a retro handheld. A lot of them run android so you can play android games, but the built in controllers make emulating actually enjoyable.
Major issue is that the ones cheaper than a switch struggle with 3D games.
If you have the money, steamdeck is definitely one of the best bang for buck, but it’ll probably be more expensive than a switch (unless you can find a deal on a used/refurbished one).
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•In Canada, Nintendo is increasing the price of the original Nintendo Switch.English1·2 days agoThere is also dead cells, slay the spire, monster train, disable immortal, etc.
However, those are also all playable on switch too. Technically you can emulate the switch on android, but I think this brings up the biggest flaw in gaming on android; you’re either emulating or streaming for most good games.

Especially because they cut all of that for tax breaks and higher government spending, so it’s not even a deficit issue.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•In China, coins and banknotes have all but disappearedEnglish12·5 days agoI think it also comes down to the fact most people aren’t going to label the transaction “illegal drugs”. But it does make it easier to track payments and build cases against people (or oppress people depending on the government/police).
Yep, bind mount the data and config directories and back those up. You can test a backup by spinning up a new container with the data/config directories.
This is both easy and generally the recommended thing I’ve seen for many services.
The only thing that could cause issues is breaking changes caused by the docker images themselves, but that’s an issue regardless of backup strategy.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•US to withdraw from NATO under Republican billEnglish4·5 days agoNot sure how much I trust Trump, but yeah Mike Lee (who introduced the bill) is someone who just likes introducing bills. The fact no one else joined him means this article and conversation is about all he could expect to actually happen.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac ordered to consider crypto as an asset when buying mortgages2·7 days agoI think the question I always have is “what is driving the value”? Why do more people want it now than a year ago?
Since the only answer that I can come up with is “because someone later might pay more for it”, it makes me a little skittish to bother with it. I did invest in etherium when it looked like web 3.0 might actually be a thing, but that seems to have stagnated so I sold.
The issue right now is that every “asset” seems to only go up, the question will be how it all fairs when the next crash happens (cause it will happen eventually). Stocks in companies that produce something can usually weather a storm and rebound, same with bonds, but what does an intangible speculative asset do?
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Republicans ask Donald Trump to revoke Zohran Mamdani's citizenship14·8 days agoThey’ve already deported US Citizens without even revoking their citizenship - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/ice-deported-3-children-who-are-u-s-citizens-their-families-lawyers-say
So, we’ve kinda already crossed that threshold.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•The people who voted for Zohran Mamdani are also taxpayers.English5·8 days agoYou’re right, but people over a certain tax bracket are also pretty good at not paying taxes.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•All childhood vaccines in question after first meeting of RFK Jr.’s vaccine panel6·8 days agoI mean, that’s everyone involved in this administration. The decisions they’ve made will have screwed over generations to come and the total productivity of this country has been shot to hell.
There is no way to look at any of these decisions in a good way.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump, 79, explodes in F-word meltdown as his ceasefire unravels351·10 days agoHow many times can you recall a president cursing when talking to reporters? Even Trump doesn’t curse much in his tweets or press briefings. So it’s definitely notable.
Yeah, but sizing is user dependent. So unless it’s based on the users purchasing history it’s useless what the average person does.
If it said “L is your recommended size based on your purchase habits and customer data”, then sure. But it just says we recommend L because that’s what other people said/ordered, which makes no sense.
Wouldn’t it then update to recommending a M if he picked large?
If it’s really that the sizing runs large it should just say that, but that message is very ambiguous.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump floats regime change in Iran, muddying the administration’s message2·11 days agoI think your misunderstanding the article. They’re not saying that Trump hasn’t called for everything and anything under the sun. They’re saying that after the bombing, trumps team was stating the attack was on their nuclear capabilities, then Trump throws out regime change.
The issue with this is that generally when you bomb someone, you are sending a message. If Trumps admin says one thing, then Trump declares another, it’s hard to know what the US actually wants and was trying to achieve with the bombings.
Its a similar issue with the tarrifs. Countries have met with the Trump admin to discuss tariffs, but the admin is struggling to define what they want, as Trump doesn’t have a plan/policy. This is causing frustrations with allies because we’re beating them up economically, but won’t tell them why or what it would take for us to stop.
Overall the issue is that Tumpisim may work on social media for constituents, but political messaging between countries generally requires more clear consistent messaging/communication.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Odds of rolling a 7 with a weighted die1·12 days agoJust want to expand on this as it’s the most direct explanation.
With two die there are 6 ways to you can roll a seven (each side has one way to add up to seven), and 36 total combinations (6 sides * 6 sides). So the odds are 6 times out of 36 or 6/36.
With one weighted die, you have a set value (say 3 for example). There is only one side on the other die that will equal 7 (4 in our example). So you have 1 out of 6 possibilities, or 1/6 chance.
However, this is only true for 7. If you were targeting 2 for example, the odds can change substantially. Normally you have one way to get 2 (1 and 1) so you’d have 1 out of 36 possible rolls or 1/36. If the weighted die was weighted to 6 though, you’d never be able to get 2, so your odds would be 0.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What's the e-reader you would buy if you were in the market?2·12 days agoIt’s really great software, and the android app is great (given it supports offline mode). I just wish the folder structure was simpler/flexible. Makes me tempted to try to make a pull request, but haven’t done something like that in ages.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•ICE's cash crisis deepens amid immigration crackdownEnglish2·13 days agoI don’t expect DHS pushback (policy wise), but I do suspect they won’t get all the money Trump was asking for.
There is also a lot of belief that the BBB won’t get settled before July 4th. Given that it’s still getting passed back and forth between the house and senate and they only have next week.
jacksilver@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•ICE's cash crisis deepens amid immigration crackdownEnglish2·13 days agoThis may be more of an opinion, but Trump hasn’t really done anything too crazy when it comes to money (the biggest line I think he crossed was moving some defense funds around for his wall in his first term).
As for the starting a war without congress. That’s a tricky one. Technically the US has given a lot of emergency powers to the President so that he could potentially drag the US into a war, but to sustain it would require acts of Congress.
I was so confused by the image initially as I hadn’t seen a window well that deep before. This follow-up picture made it all click, thanks for sharing.
