  on Steam you can buy the soundtrack but not the game. The soundtrack is listed as a DLC for the base game. How fun

  Prerequisite to that would be banning abortions so that tracks

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Imagine not being able to shower, because AI slop generator machines need that water!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Hmm, I wonder if that plays into the wild and frequent thunderstorms in Texas now.

  Its got to be the data centers or global warming overall (and its shifting of the Jetstream’s).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Imagine not being able to shower, because AI slop generator machines need that water!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I always rant about tech moving to Austin.

  They need low heat, reliable power, and an abundance of water.

  Texas is literally none of those things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft CFO calls for 'intensity' in an internal memo, after blowout earnings⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Very happy to see my employer slowly moving away from their shitty products.

  All they’re good for is stress, frustration, and justifying the jobs of old Sys Admins that sit in ivory towers.

  The rest of the world is moving on. I challenge them to show growth next year.

  Does this still happen? I use fdroid and it’s not only more reliable than the play store, Ive never seen a malware warning or anything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is this the end of Bootloader Unlocking in the EU?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I have never installed a ROM that touched the radio.

  In fact most ROMs I’ve used warned against touching the radio because of the risk of damaging the device.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Substack app sent a push notification promoting a Nazi newsletter to several users.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I use Ghost for my blog and don’t have any trackers nor do I require emails.

  So I wouldn’t attribute that to Ghost but rather attribute it to 404Media.

  That said, I disagree, there are blogging platforms other than Substack. Sub stack is just the current popular choice and people are too lazy to move unless they personally have a problem.

  Unfortunately blogging next to Nazi propaganda isn’t a problem for those people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Epstein puts my morality into perspective⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to think that.

  But if no one tipped, all the employees would leave, and the employer would need to slowly reconsider their life choices

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They picked top of the line components so if you’re fine building a beast of a computer then yeah the list is great

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Future is NOT Self-Hosted⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not really, I was trying our naivdrome as I’m phasing out Plex and liked it so much I kept it.

  Its impressive how light navidrome is and it scans a lot faster since its only music and not my movies too

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Future is NOT Self-Hosted⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah that’s what I’m doing. Its been great

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Future is NOT Self-Hosted⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Something that’s always given me trouble is sharing my music.

  If I hear a cool song and want to send it to a friend I have to go to YouTube.

  And many of my friends send me Spotify tracks. The share feature of Navidrome has been incredible for this.

  I can send them a link and have a listen party with them and then erase the link when were done.

  It’d be nice to have this feature in more of the self hosted apps.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GET BOMBADEERED, IDIOT⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I understand you can use double space to use a markdown linebreak.

  However if you’re copy pasting a quote this still has to be done manually by the person copying the text.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GET BOMBADEERED, IDIOT⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I tend to use them because they’re easier than quotes.

  Newlines won’t terminate the block but with quotes you have to manually insert a > at each linebreak.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please tell me⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve done that by simmering milk with the ABV and straining. It’s a little barbaric but it does work.

  Better than expected too!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please tell me⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It says right on the package.

  High Vitamin D

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m completely afraid of logging into fedora.im now. It’s so engulfed in spam, bit even normal phishing spam. Absolutely horrifying spam, like gore and killing and other deranged shit.

  I had to move back to matrix.org and abandon my account.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just created my own zero trust network!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe this

  Although it looks like the nasty docker bug link in that thread is fixed.

  So maybe ro mounts can mitigate the problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Immich Flatpak⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A podman quadlet would be a great way to manage the Immich container.

  It’d be managed as a systemd unit. IMO its a better method than flatpak.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What sort of grill needs a firmware update lol⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I actually have a few of the Matter supported Kasa smart switches.

  They work incredibly well, but they still haven’t been updated to Matter 1.3 so no power consumption statistics in Home Assistant.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Barbers HATE this one simple trick⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  While it’s possible you just need cosmetics for sensitive skin here are some things you can keep in mind.

  You don’t need to use force when shaving. It can just from its weight. I found myself subconsciously using force from my time with a 5 blade Razer.

  I also clean the Razer after each use. I remove the blade and clean the blade and parts with soapy water. (Mainly because I have OCD over things being clean, but it definitely helps with pimples cause from old skin oils being on the blade and Razer guard).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What sort of grill needs a firmware update lol⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s primarily what I seek out, but my rental has the Honeywell.

  Have you found a decent matter thermostat? I’d love to get one when I get a house

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Barbers HATE this one simple trick⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I love my Henson also.

  I’m super lazy and don’t use shaving cream or oil. But I can easily shave after showering with just water.

  I had a one blade, and it worked great if you did the whole nine yards. But the Henson works better with less effort than even a 5 blade imo

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What sort of grill needs a firmware update lol⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The Honeywell thermostats support z-wave. So no cloud shenanigans.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Perspective⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Bottom, we can see dust and debris accumulated on the “run” part of the steps.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wafrn: a tumblr clone that federates with fedi and now also has opt in native bluesky⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I always figured because the weird names have cheaper domain registrations. However wafrn is a pretty short name so, it probably is on the high end.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨goodbye plex⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I just got Authentik / Traefik going for Navidrome, Jellyfin is next.

  Does it play well for the mobile applications? If you use them?

  Stop giving broadband funds globally, it’s just squandered, it needs to be manually voted on and approved per project.
