Does Lemmy have an equivalent to the Herman Cain Awards subreddit? We’re definitely gonna need one.

They do, and they were there to see their dad get murdered. But podcasting and continuing his legacy of being a rancid bigot is more important, apparently.

I don’t know anything about logo artwork, but I know I love this! I also love how unexpected it is for a hotdog cart, in a good way. Don’t think I’ve seen anything like that before (again, I mean this in a good way!). Really nice work.

Tragic, but probably for the best.

2026 is gonna be the year I finally move to Linux. I have huge concerns about many aspects of switching, but they’re being overtaken by concerns about staying with Windows. I don’t even mind if my overall user experience is a bit worse on Linux (I am trying to have reasonable expectations that it won’t be the walk in the park Linux advocates on Lemmy like to claim), I just have much more faith in its security, privacy, customisability and - most importantly - the motivations and intentions of its developers.

I haven’t bothered to read the article yet, but I’m gonna go out on a limb and assume they want our PCs to be so overpowered in order to better run their AI bullshit. Gonna turn us into a distributed datacentre or something.

It is 100% for kids. Only a kid could be wowed by its extremely blunt and obvious metaphor. Not that I’m dissing it, but come the fuck on, it’s not exactly Ulysses.

It’s literally the most unstable, buggy, crash-prone piece of software I’ve ever used. I completed the game and got 100% of the cheevos, but it took me about 400% longer than it should have because I was having to relaunch the game every 5-10 minutes (not exaggerating, that’s how often it crashed).

Great info/ideas! 👍

I use an add-on that has similar functionality (kinda). It’s called Search from Popup or ContextMenu:

• Firefox Add-ons
• GitHub

It’s me 😭

I use RSS Guard on my PC (works on Mac, Linux and Windows). Comes with powerful regex filtering, so I can really curate my feeds.

RSS seems kinda oldschool, but it’s still the best way I’ve found of keeping track of the things I care about. No fuss or social media bullshit, just information.

I don’t understand why, when a specific product or company is accused by scientists and others of being harmful, we give any airtime whatsoever to said product or company. Did we not learn from the tobacco industry and oil industry and pharmaceutical industry that this is either a colossal waste of everyone’s time, or allows them to muddy the waters sufficiently to continue doing more harm in the interim? Why do I need to hear from sociopathic techbros that their products are fine actually?

Has he seen his own comedy specials?

Iranians in their thousands dying of pure cringe.

Will pay a frankly humiliating amount of money to get one of these ASAP. My OG Steam Controller (my second, in fact) is on death’s door.

Fluoride has a special property that causes people’s low IQ levels to be confirmed.

Calling unnecessary circumcision of boys “genital mutilation” sounds frivolous because it makes it sound like you’re placing it alongside FGM in terms of its effects and severity. But it is nevertheless genital mutilation, by just about any definition you care to put forward. The men living in the non-circumcision-crazed countries of the world aren’t constantly having their blackened rotten cocks drop off from all the dick disease they’re allegedly exposed to by having an intact penis, so I don’t understand why you would feel the need to do this to your kid without a specific medical reason (of which there are very few that require surgical removal of the skin).

“But if you don’t wash it, it gets dickcheese!” and the solution to that is slicing the fucking skin off of it? The clue is in the warning: wash it. Teach your sons to care for their wilberts. Telling them to lather up their bellend in the shower is hardly something that needs prompting anyway.

Personal/intimate hygiene should be part of regular schooling. Not even as part of sex ex, just “how to care for your vessel” kinda shit. Don’t drink to excess, walk and move at least 10 minutes a day, stay away from illegal drugs, be careful with prescription drugs, and wash your bastard stinksausage.

I liked Starfield (I even 100%ed the achievements on Steam). I also loved No Man’s Sky long before the shift in pubic sentiment towards it, so maybe I’m just weird. But if you’re reading this and thinking “this guy wouldn’t know a good game if it shat a voxel-based turd onto his chest”, you’re WRONG. I also loved MindsEye. So there.

Even the freebies that I want to play, I almost never play through Epic, and usually wait until I get another copy on Steam. The overall experience of playing a game through Epic is just… bleugh.

I think I’ve only completed one game on Epic, Layers of Fear 2. The other stuff I’ve played has essentially been like playing a demo, to see if it’s worth adding to my Steam wishlist. That’s how subtractive to the enjoyment of gaming Epic is.

I also just dislike their practice of exclusivity and feel uncomfortable supporting it with my wallet. At least with Ubisoft, EA and Rockstar, it’s only their own games they wall off like that, and they almost always have a Steam-connected version so there’s at least the illusion of having everything in one place. Epic is a black hole. I don’t even remember the games that have been or are still exclusive there, because I just never encounter any information about them apart from occasional news articles about how unprofitable they’ve been even after X-number of years. It’s kinda sad, for the devs who work hard on something for years and 8 people play the fucker.

Sandra, cancel my 1 o’clock.
