Sid Meier’s Pirates
I have dozens of thousands of hours logged in that game, all because it’s so easy to get in to and so hard to get out of. Just turn it on, do some pirate shit, then realize it’s been hours and you probably should have eaten or slept at some point.
I saw all the announcements for Sync, and remembered that Sync for Reddit was my main app a long time ago. Couldn’t recall why I switched to Infinity.
Downloaded Sync for Lemmy today, scrolled past about 4 posts before a box showed up that said “sponsored content.” Now I remember why I switched.
ymfah is a mad genius, and everyone should check out his other videos.
The point of the dual boot is that you still have everything from before. When you turn on the computer, it’ll ask if you want your old Windows or your new Linux.
I started a clean Windows install a few weeks ago. Upon first boot, I immediately deleted the program files folder for Edge in an act of defiance to Microsoft. I then realized I had no browser. Had to ask my son to put a Firefox installer on a flash drive for me.
3 days later, I found out that winget exists.
Thank you. It was my first time hearing the term.
What does chaser mean?
My hatred of blackberries is unending. I’m angry enough that I have to mow the grass, but there is nothing I loathe more than having to regularly take a machete to the encroaching mass of thorny monsters that are invading my yard and attempting to make it uninhabitable by my children. If I was given the option to make any species of any living thing immediately extinct, I would choose blackberries without a moment’s hesitation, and then throw a party to celebrate the oppression I’ve been freed from.
I mean, we kinda do, we just take in so much more inputs than we could ever reasonably put in a computer, over a much longer time period, and with processing done on those inputs that isn’t entirely understood.
I would think it’s because users only interact with their own instance. They would need to post it to their instance first before it can be forwarded to the appropriate community’s instance.
The main shift was that I now strongly prefer console/couch/tv gaming over PC/monitor/desk gaming.
This is the big one for me. My co-workers all wonder why I switched from pc to PlayStation, and I’m like, “dude, you just watched me troubleshoot 10 machines that failed our OS upgrade, and you think I want to come home and find that Windows update just broke my sound drivers again?”
It’s possible you’ve had it before and were simply asymptomatic the first time. I only knew I had it the first time because everyone in my house was miserably ill and I tested positive. Two years later, I tested positive again. This time, I had the worst headache of my life, and I was so exhausted that I felt like passing out every time I stood up. Only lasted a day or two, thankfully.
Third vote for connect. Tried jerboa, thought it was hideous. Went out of my way to try Thunder, not enough features. Connect is just right.
Depending on what he did in the military, becoming a cop might have been the only decently paying job he was qualified for.
