Yep, there’s a bunch of Klan meets you can happen upon, where every attendee you kill nets you an increase in honour.
- Comment on Based Red Dead 15 hours ago:
Also, you can murder random Klan members and increase your honour.
- Comment on Anon buys a TV without researching 1 week ago:
I have an LG, which is…fine.
But what I do like about it is that I basically never have to interact with its OS. 100% of my content is watched through an Apple TV. I turn it on with the ATV remote and it goes immediately to the correct HDMI input.

- Comment on If you are a young person you have no idea how bad everyone and everything smelled until at least the 1990s. 2 weeks ago:
My mother in law smokes, so a visit to her house always results in throwing whatever clothes we’ve taken directly into the washing machine when we get home.
Worse though, is that it takes a few days for the smell to leave my CPAP machine. I put a new filter in, but it still somehow lingers.

You call yourselves the land of the free, but have to beg your boss to let you have time off that’s owed.

That’s more than mildly infuriating.

Britain is where the Canuckians got that from. Our colonies ranged very far and very wide, and for that we’re very sorry.

Sorry.
- Comment on I just watched the wrong version of Drive (2011), and didn't realize until the last 10 minutes. Any similar stories? 1 month ago:
I acquired the new Ted Danson/Mike Schur show, A Man on the Inside a few days ago. Given that it’s spy-coded I didn’t think it unusual when the opening scene supposedly filmed in the early '80s was in a foreign language. Figured that maybe Danson’s character is ex-KGB or some shit and that there were no subtitles because we’re not really supposed to know what he’s saying.
Yeah, no. I’d somehow managed to strip out all language files but Turkish when transcoding it from MKV to MP4.

Off the top of my head, What Dreams May Come and One Hour Photo are two wildly different types of movie, both kinda bleak in their own way, and neither what you’d turn to if you wanted a Robin Williams comedy. To some extent World’s Greatest Dad as well, though that one actually is pretty funny.
- Comment on "The **Most open** Operating System" 1 month ago:
Reaper is available for Linux. I can’t vouch for it as I’ve not used it on there, but I’ve used it on Mac and it’s great. Generally well regarded and is pretty inexpensive.

The sign for Shitterton had to be carved out of a big chunk of local stone, because the normal metal ones kept getting nicked. Obviously.

Sorry, meant no criticism of you at all. I just wanted to share Hank’s video because he goes into a lot of depth and really helps in understanding.

Pretty sure they cribbed most of that article from This Hank Green video from the same day. It’s a message worth spreading though, to be fair.
- Comment on What's Mastodon precious? 2 months ago:
I’ve been a heavy Mastodon user for two years, and I honestly don’t see why so many people on Lemmy give it so much shit. Certainly not in favour of the likes of Bluesky.
I get WAY more engagement with my posts on there than I ever did on Twitter. And maybe I’m just at an age where I don’t give a shit about celebrity, but I couldn’t care less that all the Big Names have gone to Bluesky and Threads. It’s great not seeing the same people being shared into my TL all the time.

I have no strawman. I had a wickerman, but, well, it’s awkward.

It’s not that weird, given that they’re both examples of Fediverse software that can (in theory, though not well in practice) interact with each other.
As for Masto being separate instances; I’ve never really had a problem with that. Follow a bunch of people from different servers and you’ll soon begin to federate and link up with other people.
- Comment on do you think lemmy will ever be popular? 2 months ago:
I see folks posting on Mastodon, griping that it’s failing, that it’ll never be as popular as Bluesky and Threads because of X and Y, and I’m like, I’m over there chatting to people all day, having a fine time, following new people, picking up new followers, and generally enjoying it more than I ever really enjoyed Twitter.
I don’t really understand why those folks want it to be more than it is.
“Oh, but there are no journalists!”
Good? I don’t want endless ragebait posted in my feeds. I just wanna be chill, share music recommendations, and enjoy more people interacting with my radio show than ever did on Twitter.
