  I philosoph around a lot. It’s not good for my mind.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, forever might be too strong of a word.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨steam vs gog, which game store to buy from?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I personally buy from GOG almost exclusively, but it really depends on you. If Steam features are important to you, use Steam. If what GOG’s doing with DRM is important to you, buy from GOG.

  Can’t you continue buying games from both? And use Playnite or something? Or even just GOG Galaxy which has the ability to import your games from Steam and run them?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨steam vs gog, which game store to buy from?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You can just put the game into Steam after install, works great.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  IMO there’s a huge difference between “doesn’t enjoy” and “being indifferent”.

  Like, me and my partner watch some movies that they’re definitely not enjoying, but they still watch them because we’re together and they don’t not enjoy them.

  Point is, you can do things together if you accept the other side is not into it as much as you are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  What even is this response? That’s like telling a gay person they should try being straight.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Frustrations grow in Russia over cellphone internet outages that disrupt daily life⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh yeah, that’s the important thing happening right now that Russia is involved in. Internet outages.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Regulations restricting pay disclosure?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Unlikely that it’s actually any regulatory requirement, but I don’t see anything illegal about it either (though I’m not based in the US, so I don’t really know).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Depends. Not according to OP, yes according to everyone else.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Does ř count?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t a LLM would be so wrong about it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The umlauted letters are separate letters, your table is wrong.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Those count as separate letters.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨iRobot’s revenue has tanked and it’s almost out of cash | "Roomba customers are understandably concerned about the impact these current financial troubles might have on their home cleaning robots."⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, that’s why you’ll have to try out. Or ask someone to at least try whether it opens, the apps mostly either fail on start because they require a Google certified Android, or they don’t fail at all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨iRobot’s revenue has tanked and it’s almost out of cash | "Roomba customers are understandably concerned about the impact these current financial troubles might have on their home cleaning robots."⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Though it looks like that could change eventually with a Linux phone.

  SailfishOS is mostly daily drivable, depends on which Android apps you need (there’s a compatibility layer to run Android apps on it), with bank apps it’s often a problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it normal to feel intense fear when in the presense of any sort of yelling / loud arguments?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That happens often, usually to people who have gone through a childhood full of arguing (not necessarily with them, might be the parents just fighting a lot).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it normal to feel intense fear when in the presense of any sort of yelling / loud arguments?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m usually annoyed, not uncomfortable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why don't other instances and communities load for my instance?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You have to subscribe to a community, otherwise you’re not getting any updates. If no one on your instance subscribes, you get no updates. Try setting up a bot account and make it subscribe to a bunch of communities.

  For example using lemmy-federate.com.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Now try the whole GOG catalog.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When we eat the billionaires, we should spare Gabe Newell? No?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Pff, I wish my overall taxation was only 30%.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A brain transplant is one of those rare cases where you’d rather be the donor than the recipient.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Unless you’re one of the lucky few whose body simply accepts the transplanted organ as its own.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Despite having heard the phrase 'passive aggressive' several times, I still don't know what it means.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The textbook definition is being aggressive without partaking in direct aggression. A simple rule of thumb difference is that with passive aggressive behaviour you can pretend you didn’t know you were aggressive.

  Like, if you throw a brick at your neighbour’s window while he’s watching TV - there’s no way you can twist it as meaning anything else. That’s the normal non-passive aggressive and you can’t really pretend you didn’t mean it the way you did it.

  If you pour water in the middle of harsh winter in front of their door, that’s passive aggressive - you avoid direct confrontation (unless they happen to see you) but are aggressive towards them. He might suspect it’s you (you threw a brick through his window after all!) but he can’t prove it.

  ---

  That’s what’s frustrating about passive aggression - everyone in the room (including the passive aggressive person, their target and any bystander) knows what’s going on, but it’s not direct so the aggressor can claim “omg I didn’t mean it that way.”

  Denmark is going full on “for the greater good.”

  How could that ever go wrong?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PRUSA releases the OpenPrintTag, open source standard for filament spool identification and data tracking⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks. I’m a Bambu user now. Might have to come back to Prusa some day because I really dislike what Bambu’s doing lately, but so far not a single thing has broken (well, other than things I broke) after two years of use.

  I would really like something top level which is not made by Prusa nor Bambu, I guess.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨3D design software for 3d printing?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey, OpenSCAD is the best! Also Shapelab seems like it might be interesting (sculpt in VR), though I haven’t yet tried it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do each gaming fraction (pc, consoles, mobile) hating each other?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Just stream it over LAN.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PRUSA releases the OpenPrintTag, open source standard for filament spool identification and data tracking⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They didn’t, apart from when the motor got broken which they send me a replacement for.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PRUSA releases the OpenPrintTag, open source standard for filament spool identification and data tracking⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lucky you, I even got a faulty motor in there. Getting a good print was constant tinkering. That’s fine for Ender 3 price point, not Prusa prices.

  Maybe I was just unlucky, but unlike many people on the internet I simply don’t like Prusa printers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PRUSA releases the OpenPrintTag, open source standard for filament spool identification and data tracking⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My first printer was Prusa MINI and it sucked so much. Something constantly stuck or broken.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I beg you pardon? We admins have been chosen by gods! /s

  I see other reasons for censorship, like blatant propaganda by authoritarian countries, like what Russia does all the time.
