  • I thought this was going to be an ICE joke. Mario definitely overstayed his mushroom kingdom visa.

  • Probably rather a lot of people in his inner circle.

  • I "read" on "the internet" to "make myself miserable"

  • Police: "You're mentally ill."

    Person: "Er no I'm not?"

    Police: "Looks like anosognosia, get on the ground, now."

  • The fact that I get this makes me think I've wasted too much of my life on the internet

  • I don't really watch this franchise but the early buzz on this show was pretty terrible.

  • It was potentially defamation when it was just women...talking to one another, too. This seems like a pretty solid case of men looking at something women do to protect each other, and saying "...but what about the men who could be negatively affected in some cases?" I also think the tone in which this is being discussed is pretty revealing about Lemmy's demographics.

  • I mean, yes, but does that take priority over women who are worried about their safety? There's been women doing this over local Facebook groups for a long time. Defamation of this sort is not a new issue.

  • Long time google assistant user, but them putting Gemini in it is what I'm afraid of, not the solution.

    This is yet another "google released a product, didn't know what to do with it, and made zero updates over the last decade, so now they're killing it." I don't think they've ever fixed the bugs that existed the first day I bought mine. The speaker is handy for casting to, but also cast is a shitty non-open protocol.

    Kinda just agree with the "everything in this space sucks" unfortunately.

  • I don't think that will fly even with this joke of a supreme court

  • That whole survival crafting genre seems very hit or miss to me, and I've noticed that people liking one game in the genre is a very poor predictor of whether they'll like another one. Subnautica, Don't Starve, Minecraft, and Ark are all theoretically the same genre but very different games.

    However I've also seen a lot of people say that Subnautica was the one that clicked for them. I think the story and progression was big for a lot of people.

  • I thought the people fired were executives, not creatives.

    Edit: I also don't see how a boycott helps the actual people working on the game.

  • I did not find it that difficult, but there was a lot of up front homework to make sure you had a compatible hardware configuration due to needing hardware which was supported by the limited number of Mac configurations. I recall running into a problem where I wasn't getting a picture on my monitor and I could not figure out why since my video card was supported and the drivers were ok. The problem as it turned out? I had my monitor connected via DVI and macs had never supported DVI so there were no drivers. Once the install was done, it pretty much Just Worked. Linux installs are pretty easy these days but debugging problems can be very difficult. The hard part of the hackintosh was keeping up with upgrades, since they needed to be done manually (due to potentially breaking things).

  • I do think that bluesky has a ton of momentum right now and is a viable alternative. But the thing about microblogging sites is that if the specific people you want to follow aren't on them, there's not really a substitute. I know I've heard people say that, for example, a lot of japanese game developers are still primarily on twitter (I've never been a twitter/bsky enjoyer so I can't speak to it personally).

  • Abandoned mine several years ago. Kind of a shame, they were a good option for a while for people who weren't windows fans but didn't want to run linux full time. Apple just doesn't really have any offerings for people who want a desktop that's upgradeable, but don't want to drop the money on a Mac Pro.

  • Shitty arm rests though.

  • Yep.

  • As someone who frequently shops on their bike, lack of handles on paper bags can be the difference between me being able to bring things home or not. I can hang a plastic bag off of the handle bars or over my shoulder if I need to. A paper bag without handles is going to leave me pretty screwed if I don't currently have panniers with me.

  • I'd love to see another more standard turn based FF, but people also have to realize that the last pure turn based game was X in 2001. FF changing shit with every game is what FF does.

    Banks are keeping credit card rates high even after the CFPB rule they blamed for high APRs was killed
