  I just want my grocery store to start playing JRPG OSTs. Buying vegetables while jaming to Chrono Trigger songs would be the best. Black Omen? More like beat Omen.

  Your ancestor probably pissed off a witch. My condolences

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"You should probably just throw it away"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m on a Debian based distro, but it is super simple. To hold a driver, or any package to a version just use “sudo aptitude hold <name or package here>” to undo this at any point just use “sudo aptitude unhold <name or package here>”. If you use the GUI package manager, there is a “Lock Version” option in a menu that does it.

  If you’re on a Redhat based distro, Federa et al, I believe the keyword is “versionlock” for yum or dnf, but I would definitely recommend looking at a reference for the command before blinding following me on that one.

  My first car had a bench seat as well, can’t say I miss that at all

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"You should probably just throw it away"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m responding to you, but this is more for others to see since you moved to AMD.

  I used Nvidia cards for many years on Linux and only recently switched back to AMD. The main issues I ran into with Nvidia were related to driver updates breaking things rather than things not working in general. So, I eventually found that holding Nvidia drivers to versions that worked without issues was the best bet and only updating them on occasion after they had been out for a bit and the consensus was that they weren’t breaking stuff.

  Four! lol, oh man, I bet they get awful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hate your job? how about you die and still have to do it⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I had no idea there was a sequel. Based on what you say about it, I’ll try to fake believing that is still the case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Suikoden US vs JPN Box Art⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe that is what it was that I am thinking of.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Suikoden US vs JPN Box Art⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I could swear my original US release had some weird combo of the two. I gave away 90% of my PS1 and PS2 games last year so I can’t check now, but I really think it had the main image shown from the Japanese release on the case. Maybe the image was shown in game on the loading screen or something and I am just remembering it wrong.

  I am also an enthusiast of the… dinosaur of similar words

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon buys a TV without researching⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  $300 isn’t too bad of a price for a 47" 4K where they aren’t getting extra money from your data and ads. I went for the 1080p model because at the distance we sit at it was impossible to tell the difference based on the 4K Roku TV is replaced.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon buys a TV without researching⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You mean it doesn’t have any of this yet :)

  I say this as someone with two LG TVs. Sure you can just not connect them to the internet, but a lot of people reply on the “Smart” part of the TV to view all their content.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon buys a TV without researching⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I got their 1080p 43" “dumb” model for $150 not too long ago. I wouldn’t choose it for my main living room TV, but it is perfectly fine for what I needed it for and they can’t retroactively make it worse like the Roku tv it replaced.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dune explained⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am from FL and just moved to MN last year and it was similar for me. Snow doesn’t feel or behave like I thought it would based on TV/movies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Good morning it's very cold so let's make some soup.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Clearly an AI photo, and at first I thought “Well, of course only AI would be dumb enough to do this.”, but then I remembered I grew up in Florida and realized civilization was a mistake.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pass the football⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There is a name I thought I would never seen again when I left Florida :(

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony reportedly prepping PlayStation 5 portable, plans to battle Nintendo's handheld dominance⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, is it time for Sony to self-sabotage again?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon gets home from a long day at work⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Accurate. I love hot sauces, but I have had to tell friends and family to never buy me hot sauce because chances are it will suck or be samey. Especially those gift packs they push around the holidays.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This world is cruel…⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For your own sanity and wallet, it is best that you do not investigate further.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This world is cruel…⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And yet, whenever I get a new keyboard or caps there is a nontrivial chance my wife will steam them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What your coffee preparation method says about you⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Its not a drip machine though, it’s more like a Chemex that doesn’t require you to do the pouring.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What your coffee preparation method says about you⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The analogy works well since its Debian-like, but way more awesome. The Moccamaster is great. As easy to use as a drip, but makes better coffee than the Chemex.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨anyway, i started blastin'⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  To be fair, it made slightly more sense in the comics, though still batshit. In the comics there was no noble purpose like they tried to shoehorn in for the MCU. IIRC, Thanos was literally doing it to impressed Death (the cosmic entity) to gain her affection.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries programming in Java⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Anon is absolutely exaggerating for comic effect. That doesn’t mean Java doesn’t have all of those problems though, it just isn’t as ridiculous as they made it out unless you get dragged into enterprise bullshit (then you’re in for it).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wednesday it is, my dudes.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve definitely heard some sort of frog/toad make the “ribbit” sound, but I’d say the German “kwaak” is probably more common. The various Asian sounds seem odd to me though. I suppose it is entirely possible the frogs makes different sounds there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My wacky indie game has reached 6000 wishlists, I made this meme to explain how it feels⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Good luck! I am about the same place in my career and I also wanted to actually release a game (not just make 80% of a game in secret!).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Gamer: The top 100 PC games⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The list is honestly bizarre and the rank placements are all over the place. Most of your later examples of that I completely agree with. I just think that the mainline FF games not being on the top 100 list of PC games is fairly understandable, and I say that as a huge fan of the series. Ironically, FF14 is quite literally the only game in the series that I haven’t played.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Gamer: The top 100 PC games⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Regarding the FF games, I think it’s actually fine considering some of the more notable omissions. Most FF games didn’t get released anywhere near when they were relevant.

  I haven’t seen anything like that on a pizza since I moved to the midwest. They do seem obsessed with pickles though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the current best smart TV software/brand/ecosystem option?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That is great news if they stick to it. Ttheir WebOS TVs are becoming slimier and slimier.
