I haven’t gone lookimg but I’m sure I could find acceptable alternatives. I’ve just never felt the need to blow so much money and time for so little gain.

Wiki does say tastes bad for birds. Maybe some irritant? I know spiders don’t have taste buds, but chemical sensing leg hairs near the mouth instead doing the closest spider equivalent.

Same here, although they’re not catching much of the current infestation of Maple/Boxelder bugs.
I like their look and dopey panicked movements when they notice you watching them, but the cute looks get old when there’s 20 sunbathing on the wrong side of the kitchen window.

Eventually will glow human eye visible if you keep heating it past useful temperatures. 1000’C+ starts getting red hot.
Doesn’t emit light as readily as iron does, especially with iron’s oxide layer building up when heated.

I’ve been watching Tech Ingredients search for the best shield material to test their Drone destroying extreme high power laser setup indoors for obvious reasons.
It turned out to be fruits/veggies. Nothing else came close. So he went with panels filled with thickened water.

I don’t miss the crab claw pain trying to play with anything in the DS form factor and that d-pad placement looks rancid.
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 2 weeks ago:
Not really besides maybe more conservative trolls upsetting people in their usual favourites like unpopular opinion communities. Negative communities are troll attracting nectar generally.

Well OP isn’t using Piefed but you can choose not to federate votes by default as a user settings option, and then you’d have to hold down the vote button to select a federated vote option instead.
- Comment on PS6 and next Xbox console are both aiming for 2027 release, separate reports claim | VGC 2 weeks ago:
I just wonder what customer satisfaction is. You can get a fool to waste their money only so many times. Buyers Remorse was the PS4 for me.
- Comment on Steam Next Fest is back for October 2025. What good demos have you found? 2 weeks ago:
Great demo although I played it months ago. Full game launches tomorrow.
- Comment on ‘Death to Spotify’: the DIY movement to get artists and fans to quit the music app 2 weeks ago:
In my experience, buying vinyl on Bandcamp comes with the digital versions pretty often. Check your account’s purchase library.
Edit: Looked it up. The default is this way, digital is bundled in with a vinyl purchase unless an Artist opts out.
- Comment on The Steam Controller's stick is upgradeable! 2 weeks ago:
I haven’t had any noticeable joystick wear on my four Pro 2’s since launch date April 2021. I’m using them evenly however, so that might skew things. I swap to the next every time the battery needs recharging.
Weekly couch gaming sessions with my friends is why I have four.

For profit media. Opportunistic.

When enough people care collectively yeah. Rare.
Canadians vs Heinz Ketchup in the past and I think that one has stuck around somewhat to present day.
Canadians again vs American booze in response to 51st state threats. Yesterday’s headlines were about a continued drop in sales, down 85% this year so far.
Travel is down too. Not enough in my opinion, but enough that a few states are whining about it including Newsom in California. Fuck the USA.
Usually no though.
- Comment on What possible evolutionary advantage is offered by my ears suddenly sprouting tons of hair? 3 weeks ago:
Nope. I think “we’re” evolved to bury our heads in the sand regarding death and the true nature of reality.
- Comment on Persona 4 Revival is "shaping up nicely" – but it's "not just about adding more" content, because the JRPG devs "have to create an experience that's enjoyable in a new and different way" 3 weeks ago:
It’s about doing the bare minimum and asking for $90.

DVD drive laser does. They’re replaceable however.
Most tech savvy users just soft mod and run games off a hard drive for the fat models or over network LAN for fat/slim. Storing the games on a PC or NAS instead.
PSBBN (PlayStation Broadband Navigator), is a newer alternative to the FreeMcBoot memory card mod for the PS2.
- Comment on Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions! 3 weeks ago:
Not played by many because it’s one of the last releases on PS2, but if you like horror ganes then check out Rule of Rose. Up there for some of the best graphics on the console too.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_Rose
Others are suggesting Resident Evil Outbreak File 1 and 2. It’s much better played online with other people than AI. There’s fan server support: https://obsrv.org and they have guides to set it up on PCSX2. I’d recommend learning how to install it to the virtual hard drive because the loading times are pretty awful otherwise and server hosts generally only make hard drive install only servers.
Their Discord community is a good way to find a group to play with, unless you have a few willing friends :)

NFS Underground 1 is better than the sequel IMO. The open world is empty and tedious filler vs just loading directly into the tracks.
Best NFS on the PS2 is Hot Pursuit 2 however. Made by Black Box, it’s vastly superior in every way to the other console versions and the PC version made by a different company despite sharing assets.
- Comment on GOG: We’re thrilled to announce that the Crysis Remastered Trilogy has joined our catalog, and the original Crysis is now part of the GOG Preservation Program! 3 weeks ago:
Nope higher. Especially if you enable ray tracing which was added.
IPC single thread performance matters most for Crysis because their complex AI especially is single threaded IIRC. Remastered didn’t do anything about that.
- Comment on Mina the Hollower has been delayed 3 weeks ago:
I’m looking forward to this one, but I’m in no rush. Limited selection isn’t a problem I have with indie releases.
- Comment on I can't say I am going to kill the president. But can the president specify me a civ saying he is going to kill me? And it be legal? 3 weeks ago:
Pretty dumb thing to telegraph.
Enforcement is what matters most, regardless of legality. Especially under fascists, it’s selective application.
