  • LemmyTools did try, but development stopped a while back, and it's pretty broken.

  • Remember a couple of years ago when Biden just made it illegal for rail workers to strike?
    Just pointing out that this king shit didn't start with Trump, it's just gone even more off the rails.

  • It didn't take me long to realize blocking that instance was a good idea. I didn't know about lemmygrad and hexbear (which federated) until someone from lemmy.world pointed out another user was "brigading", and looking up how lemmy.world eventually blocked that instance the feeling I have towards lemmy.world is that they act like the "world police" of the lemmy-verse.

  • I guess David Lynch had the same idea (From Eraserhead).

  • Talk about doombragging..

  • Paradox games never miss with the music. Stellaris is also amazing.

  • Gonna play this in honor of anon.

  • The Asus EeePC 1000H that I bought back in 2009 is a 10 inch monitor netbook. 160 GB HDD because I didn't go with SSD, only came with 1 GB of RAM and cruicially was offered in both Windows XP and Linux flavor which was a bit niche at the time.
    Its 32-bit single core (hyperthreading) atom processor is very slow at 1.6GHz, but it can still be used with antiX for my usecase.
    If you manage to get hold of one of these old dinosaurs, I'd probably opt for an SSD solution, that's a pretty big bottleneck.

  • I use an extension which bundles 5 different solutions in one called PaywallHub. I hasn't been updated for a while because it got hit by takedown notices, but the chrome extension and firefox addon repos are still available, you just have to install it a bit more manually: https://github.com/Angeloyo/PaywallHub

  • I've always been of the mindset that we ought to clean each others places just because it's so much easier to help a friend out than work for myself.

  • Good point.

  • While the stroad seem realistic, seeing a pedestrian carrying groceries doesn't seem like americana iconography.

  • I suppose abraunegg's onedrive does help with creating a config file, but it might still scare away newcomers to linux having to dig around for it. I suppose they'll need to learn eventually.

  • Maybe it's because I grew up with 60hz CRT monitors in the 90s, the ones that'd give you a headache if you sat in front of them for too long 😅 Or maybe you just get so used to 144 fps once you make the switch that it's impossible to go back.
    GOW running at 40'ish fps as you say even at ultra must mean they cared to make a good game. I ought to give it a go just for the "Boy" meme.

  • And if you want to up your game a little, there's Jackett and/or Prowlarr, there's even an official guide on how to set up jackett to work as a search engine within qbittorrent.

  • eggs

  • I've tried flaxseed and chiaseed eggs and they don't hold a candle to eggs as binder in food, but besides for cooking recipes, I don't know why people are freaking out so much. It's worth getting 4 chickens for your backyard, I can highly recommend it, both for companionship but also the free eggs, and they're a great way of disposing of kitchen waste as they eat just about anything. I know this is a vegan sublemmy, I'm just saying, if you want eggs, earn it.

  • There's a reason I only upgraded to a 2k monitor and not 4k, I'm not willing to sacrifice that much performance to just play at a higher resolution, 25 fps is way too low for me. 108 fps is what I play Fallout New Vegas at (to avoid physics behaving too weirdly) and I think that's fine. I think I've gone down to 90 and been somewhat ok with that, but anything below that is no bueno.
    Non-fps games I'll cap lower, like 72 fps for a civilization game is perfectly fine.
    But if you want beautiful games like God of War (or do you mean gears of war?) and are fine with a lower framerate, that makes sense to me.

  • Meanwhile, me a Dane: How hard can it be? Just take a time machine and travel back to the 17th century and fix your society.

  • I was thinking so as well. Mostly because of the left pupil not looking like the right pupil, but also the style. The style of shadow below the chalkboard looks like a really odd choice.

  • To quote Cory Doctorow on enshittification:

    Here is how platforms die:
    first, they are good to their users;
    then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers;
    finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves.
    Then, they die.
