Yo crazy pic they got of my home boy Jameson right there, def not sloppy slop.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Wow that’s sad. I didn’t necessarily enjoy reading the posts in question, but it was still kind of funny and didn’t seem to hurt any rules to me.
Sorry that happened to you. Maybe use a NSFW tag next time (doubt it would have helped though).

- Comment on Ubisoft Randomly Gives Far Cry 3 A 60FPS Current-Gen Upgrade 2 weeks ago:
My favorites are 2 and 3. 4 was OK. 5 was garbage. Haven’t played 6.
- FC2 because of the kind of “horror” element being thrown into a oppressive and immersive open world.
- FC3 because of the gameplay overhaul and the brilliant storytelling.
- Comment on Nova Launcher gets a new owner and... ads 2 weeks ago:
I’m not familiar with Nova launcher, it seems to have some USPs to it.
But these days I always recommend Lawnchair. It’s built on top of the Pixel launcher, which in itself is a very good launcher IMHO, and refines it to be more customizable.

These are really dope, keep up the good work.
Hope you’re doing alright!

- Comment on AI finds errors in 90% of Wikipedia's best articles 2 months ago:
Yes and no. I have enjoyed reading through this approach, but it seems like a slippery slope from this to “vibe knowledge” where LLMs are used for actually trying to add / infer information.

I have a slight suspicion we’re not talking about the same lithium here

- Comment on Got invited to THIS party. Seems to be a new trend of celebrating first times in your life 2 months ago:
I love that the people here take AI slop seriously. It might be a long way from this to shrimp Jesus or whatever else the fuck is going on e.g. at facebook for now, but I’m afraid the ignorance / acceptance as well as the inability to tell the difference will rise gradually.

I don’t understand the hate for that guy in particular. Not judging the content, but the stuff he writes is clearly readable. There are definitely worse lunatics around here.
- Comment on 3 months ago:
This is a privacy, security, economical / environmental sustainability, and last but not least probably a usability nightmare.
Can’t wait for the LLM / gen AI bubble to pop to see what remains, hopefully this “browser” won’t.
- Comment on I wonder what game they're trying to play 3 months ago:
Didn’t know that. I would have guessed the reason is to save battery or stop annoying people when it isn’t in reach / you can’t turn it off.
- Comment on I wonder what game they're trying to play 3 months ago:
If OP were interested in learning about tech at the same time, they could research an easy way to call the controller API with a simple button / toggle in a project, possibly writing their own controller-to-vibrator App, e.g. in Godot.

There is obviously a lot to unpack here, most of it is just plain gibberish. The best option here, as always, is to ask him directly.
Pro: Fresh white bread can be very delicious. It is soft and fluffy, and depending on the freshness even still warm, which are all really nice things to be associated with imho. It is also versatile, as it can be crafted to e.g. a list of delicious sandwiches. The focus on the whiteness of the bread may be in remembrance to a time when paleness was a female beauty standard.
Contra: It is not the healthiest choice of breads, but not a lot of wheat products are. If I’m not mistaken, it could also be a slur for people with a light skin tone.

mstsc.exewas exactly the one I used. I vaguely remember that I had used that successfully some years ago (in a much bigger environment with proper certs) and it worked.Regarding NLA: I believe that I would have to disable that on purpose no? It was on a very vanilla Windows 11 install. I just looked and regarding any other settings than the ones listed in
mstsc.exe, I get told that Windows 11 Home edition doesn’t support RDP lol. - Comment on [deleted] 4 months ago:
I recently used the old Windows RDP client they refer to. I tried to connect to a Windows VM and it didn’t work. Had to pull out some old log utility tool and filter a while to recognize the server didn’t use a valid TLS certificate (lives inside a VPN) and the handshake failed. Tried disabling cert validation (although I’m not sure if that one obfuscated option did exactly that), still no luck.
I then tried KRDP in KDE. It asked me if I’m sure I wanted to connect since the cert is self signed. I accepted and got in. Easy as that.
- Comment on Comparing network utilization of Lemmy, Kbin and PieFed - PieFed (2024) 4 months ago:
I love how fast it is, but the PWA is missing some features like showing likes + dislikes + ratio. Maybe I just didn’t search enough tough.
The crosspost grouping feature is a godsend. I hope Clients like Interstellar are going to implement it.
- Comment on Remove Nutomic from Lemmy development for transphobia - Change.org 4 months ago:
Must surely suck to be the guy. He (unintentionally probably) created a safe space for people hating him. I guess contributions on the Lemmy Github or other fediverse projects like piefed are welcome and probably more efficient than trying to force one of the two lead developers out with a petition.
- Comment on A ‘demoralizing' trend has computer science grads out of work — even minimum wage jobs. Are 6-figure tech careers over? 4 months ago:
Says / asks an article published in a media spin-off created by a big fintech company, which has been funded by, among others, Peter Thiel.
Yes, the tech sector is in a harsh condition, but we will go on. Don’t let the AI hype / lay off waves for an overhired tech workforce from covid break your minds. There will be a need for smart people building and maintaining ecosystems, as long as a rising tech oligarchy won’t gatekeep us all out, which should be the headline here.

Regardless of online / offline, this can be attributed to a method of gaining and maintaining political power called divide and conquer.
- Comment on Borderlands 4 boss tells players "please get a refund from Steam if you aren't happy" as Randy Pitchford continues his very public crashout over the FPS's performance woes 4 months ago:
Now that I think about it, that has been one of my two blanket explanations for rich people being assholes.
The other one being the mix-up of correlation and causation (or even just the direction of causation). Money arguably does make you a worse person, but also being a bad person usually can make you a lot of money in the first place.
