Paycheck to Paycheck
A surgical strike
Destroys one month’s salary
There may be some pain

I bet it has a killer sound processor

Woah, a CD tray you’re right! I was imagining it slot loaded like a Wii, but I reckon that wasn’t around yet hah. Shame about the missing bits

Gosh that is slick, wonderful design and looks nearly prestine. Hope it can make it to a museum one day.

You can pass that my way if you’re not going to eat it, easily my favorite thanksgiving side dish.
- Comment on 6 years and 1 prolonged delay later, Xbox is still calling "incredible" Hollow Knight: Silksong one of its "upcoming games" 2 weeks ago:
This could be, hollow knight is one hell of a bar to clear. Or their main dev might just be addicted to balatro and there’s no way to factor or predict that kind of impact.

Team cherry is like 4 people, I’m confident that’s not a problem.

It was way more obvious back when team cherry went radio silence - and on some level I can understand “we’re game journalists, no one gets a pass” targeting a heavily delayed game, but I’m admittedly one of those fans that have no problem giving Cherry whatever time they need. I’m in no rush.

GamesRadar has been pushing these “but where gam?” articles for some time. It started right after silksong got delayed past the original hollow knight. They seem utterly convinced silksong will be vaporware, or (more likely) it drives plenty of clicks complaining.
- Comment on Why are Google's Assistant(s) so bad nowadays? 3 weeks ago:
I’ve been doing a 90 day test of perplexity pro and so far it’s my front runner. They recently launched an assistant that can launch instead of google assistants, can limit what info they collect, they don’t sell your data, and it connects to multiple models.
- Comment on Did sites end up making money from API restrictions? 3 weeks ago:
Perhaps I misunderstood. I thought X was to get the larger corpo users to buy in such as Nintendo share function, news orgs that would aggregate tweets, universities that used it for research qnd such. But I agree with reddit, definitely wanted to drive users to their engagement ads.

For a private voice group, could you use something like mumble? It’s still out there, doing voice well.
- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 4 weeks ago:
In the United States war does not stop the election cycle. There is zero precedent to support this, even Roosevelt had to campaign during WW2. In fact, the constitution is quite clear on the opposite - it perscribes elections must be held, offering no mechanisms for deferment.
- Comment on Kevin Rose, Alexis Ohanian acquire Digg 4 weeks ago:
Reddit (and by extension, Lemmy) likely wouldn’t exist without Kevin Rose. He both popularized the concept of user driven link aggregators and royally screwed digg during a big redesign, pushing the users to reddit.
Ohanian is generally considered a “better” cofounder of reddit (or atleast, not spez). I think the two combining forces to relaunch an OG site is newsworthy.
If it’s a positive, will remain to be seen.

No! See, that’s the problem these days - too much regulation!

Back when I needed a job I showed up on a construction site, asked politely, and they put me right straight into operating a crane. Just get out there, pound the pavement, shake some hands. You’ll be hired in no time.
- Comment on BREAKING: Warner Bros. Games is shutting down Monolith Productions, Player First Games, and WB San Diego, sources tell Bloomberg News. 5 weeks ago:
Games are doing fine for now, but how much longer will devs and artist continue being treated like disposable tissue before we see talent implode? It doesn’t seem to matter what game is built, how well it performs, if it’s single player or live service - the layoffs and closures come for everyone.

Id like to anecdotally collaborate (also in my home)

- Comment on Shopify pulls Kanye’s website offline over swastika merch 1 month ago:
Mans obviously alienated anyone around him that cares. Donda passing was the worst thing for him, and he still hasn’t gotten the help he desperately needs. There’s no one left in his orbit.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Voters blew it. It’s 1000 cuts from here, so there will still be plenty to defend and resist. But many people seem to be waiting for some big event, but that election was, for all intents, the event. Thanks for showing up.

- Comment on Americans witnessing an ongoing klepto-fascist takeover of their federal government [Day 68] 1 month ago:
Today we’re going to discuss the implicit allegories Tommy Wiseau has woven throughout film and cultural phenomenon, The Room. Let’s begin by directing our attention to the critiques of modern US imperialism using this scene. Here we see four grown men, wearing expensive formal attire, casually playing football in an alley…
- Comment on Anyone want my 12 year old old Ubuntu install DVD before I toss it out? No? Your loss. 1 month ago:
Yes!! I was trying to find mine, but these were great. The packaging was fancy, and 5.10 was so stable. I bought a bunch of em and left them around libraries lol. I hope it helped someone.
- Comment on The Young, Inexperienced Engineers Aiding Elon Musk’s Government Takeover 1 month ago:
He’s basically going around telling people what is happening, and to take it up with Trump if it’s a problem. Then those people are dismissed. That’s the extent of his authority.
- Comment on The 2025 SJW Update: Donations, costs and other points 1 month ago:
The more I play with groups, the less baked it feels. I’m assuming these group concepts aren’t part of the Lemmy API as it doesn’t seem to sync with the server. Groups I created one browser, are stuck on that browser.
- Comment on The 2025 SJW Update: Donations, costs and other points 1 month ago:
Hm I’m not sure if the groups are meant to allow combined feeds, if that’s what you mean? As far as I can see it’s only used for organizing communities into folders.
