Shitposter while I tend to two babies. Maybe when I have my life back, I’ll help us get a few more niche communities back?

    That’s pretty cool!

    Reminds me of when the Windows podium computer decided to randomly update during a student presentation in my college class, no word of warning or anything. A crash would have been preferable! At least in both cases, we get to preach the gospel of FOSS, lol.



  • Welcome, as others said you can’t get universally banned here even if you can still get banned here or there. Also don’t mind the voting around here too much, there’s no persistent karma to worry about (even though one could theoretically calculate it up, you can track history).

    Speaking of which, you can also see how others voted and a few other things. It’s an open system full of weird nerds so tools exist for all sorts of things.

    Lastly, you will see a culture shift, the most unique of which is a strong tankie presence (2/3 of which is censored on World) but also other things. AI, as noted, is fairly negative (there are spaces for it, but be mindful of instance cultures). Honestly I think deepL and stuff is generally accepted, though? As are other more regular translation tools. I like your English though, honestly.


  • I don’t understand the desire to not use a desktop PC for all the power it provides, but I’m not an everyday normal consumer. For a wireless VR set attached to a computer, it sounds lovely-- I’d like a cheaper, gutted version that’s strictly for streaming.

    But I suppose for now, I can stick to my Index, especially with prices for parts the way they are. I still much prefer it over Quest 3, tether and all.

    Yes, it’s the best way to play that and a few of those other 3D exploration games like Shining in the Darkness.

    I like the DS games Etrian Odyssey, they use the touch screen and force you to draw your own maps. The HD remakes are ok but that’s by mouse and don’t feel the same, lol.

    Edit- funny I didn’t see the other comment mentioning it too, haha. Funny they’re all SEGA now (even if EO is Atlus, lol).



  • Pesto pasta with “bowties” is my 4yos favorite food. Fresh is great if I can, but jarred is fine-- just it keeps selling out.

    Wanna know my secret ingredient? I add Japanese mirin, boiled down, which adds a unique sweetness. It was a happy accident, as I like to add an alcohol or acid when cooking meat (in this case, Italian sausage), and used it to deglaze the pan and use said pan to mix pasta and sauce together. No idea why it works well with basil and pine nuts, though.

    (Also always remember to use pasta water on the sauce too, just a bit to add the starch.)



  • I wasn’t about to read but that’s a great excerpt, especially since I know just how much of a piece of shit Robert Kraft is and is good to know he’s the real evil here.

    I don’t have a very high opinion of Ed Sheeran, but if anything I’m surprised a little by Macklemore’s conviction here. It’s not so much that Sheeran is a spineless coward (I mean, he kinda is but at least I see why), but that Macklemore is… kinda badass for speaking up. I had a meh opinion of him too but it’s moved up a little.

    Lol wtf, I just played and beat Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky for the first time and I see a meme for it? Ha.

    Btw, great story full of existential dread and other serious themes like being overwhelmed, or loss of a loved one. A weirdly good story for an IP with terrible stories.




  • I know the point of Tom Morello being included is because RATM is completely misunderstood by conservatives, but it makes me giggle because he did a song for Final Fantasy XIV because a friend he played D&D with also knew a guy involved and it just happened.

    But progressives can have hobbies. It’s fine. Lol
