Good point.

Poor bees. That’s got to be hurting them, right? Isn’t concrete caustic?

Maybe people who downvoted you don’t know that in order for cows to produce milk they have to have given birth recently.

To be fair, I did find a few very early windows 98/XP’ish games or so hard to get going. There was a period where developers tailored the games very specifically for the OS. But they’re fairly rare.

Hell yeah! ✋

For someone with ADD myself it helps to hear the same information again just worded slightly differently.
- Comment on Anon gets rid of drop box 1 week ago:
All I use dropbox for these days is synchronizing various extensions to it as a cloud backup service. Like Violentmonkey (userscripts) and Stylus (userstyles, like for making lemmy look nicer) to mention the two that come to mind.

I had this mindset for about 2 decades, from when I first played around in OpenSUSE and Compiz back in 2005 up to 2024 when I finally switched because of Windows 10 being put out to pasture by Microsoft. But since I’m not in my early 40s and no longer play competitive games as I used to 15 years ago, I’ve had zero problems with Linux and gaming.
So I totally understand your mindset as I too once thought the same.
Problem with waiting is of course that developers don’t favor linux due to lack of people on linux playing game, so it’s a vicious circle:- not playing on linux because it’s not well supported by games
- game devs not making games for linux because not enough players are there.

I saw this earlier today, the clip on lsf to be precise.
Modern computing sucks. I remember downloading sketchy shit from astalavista.box.sk all the time, and because of that I had toformat c:
several times a year. But these days? Scary stuff. Luckily I don’t have crypto. And while proton on linux simulates a sandboxed windows environment, there’s still free access to root via the Z: drive that wine sets up, so unless one uses the flatpak version which is even more sandboxed, there’s still some potential danger there even as a linux user. It’s just a matter of when. - Comment on 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Needs to Imagine More for Its Female Characters 2 weeks ago:
To me that was somehow more believable than “lines existing between pyramids” which is what ley lines are based on earth. The line between the most stable structures over time lol.

their sci-fi has a shaky grasp of science
That last episode of season 3 with “ley line bus routes” was… 🤦 … something.

Let’s see how long that lasts. I’m just glad I grew up on Sega in the 90s. It can’t be easy being a fan of Nintendo…

I just can’t see how it happens without newspapers.
Sucks that billionaires own the privately owned media, and what they don’t own they can just buy. That’s where national news services should step in.

- Comment on Power Loss but Still Online with Fiber Connection 5 weeks ago:
I’ve smelled the diesel fumes and heard the backup generators near my city’s old telephone/internet central during a city blackout a bit over a decade ago, so at least those stay on during blackouts, but you’d think that various boxes along the way to the central might need power, right?

- Comment on Anon goes on a diet 1 month ago:
15 kg’s over 7 months sounds incredibly healthy, well done. I’ve been a bit skeptic of semaglutide, that it’d result in losing weight too quickly and in an unhealthy manner, but half a kilo a week sounds like it’s been going really well for you. Happy to hear!

Trend seems extreme since 2008
Huh, just after the release of the first smartphone, odd.

Never mind the comments here on Lemmy, but you really need a hazmat suit to enter the comments on that article. Over 1400 of them, each somehow a different type of phobic.

I’m 1500 hours away from hitting 10k in Civ 5. I think I’ll stick with that for a few years more until LEKMOD stops being updated, and then I’ll think about giving 6 a chance…

And I think they’re right.

I think I read somewhere about a theory that it’s not the real Adam Smasher that V meets, it’s a clone because the original Adam Smasher could handle the insane amount of cyberware.

- Comment on After shuttering Shadow of Mordor and MultiVersus studios, Warner Bros. Games confirm rearrangement into four bits 3 months ago:
It is bullshit indeed. Especially now with AI, seemingly it would be relatively easier to throw in some adversarial llm in a game to keep a game engaging nowadays.
And imagine if other games started patenting systems like that: “Fatrolling is a unique movement system only found in FromSoftware games”. Soon there wouldn’t be anyone making games except for those with patents.
