That’s the Fark squirrel. And we all know what it’s doing to Donald.

Proton is amazing. All the Steam games I bought in Windows run great in Linux Mint.

Especially in light of Microsoft CoPilot. You do not want obvious spyware on any computer.

Voodoo Banshee, so I could play Quake, Unreal and Deus Ex.

Maybe he shouldn’t have called it “autopilot.”

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs shows what it takes for humans to be happy. A lot of people can’t even reach level 1.

This. You can usually spot bots from their low- value click bait. (“should cannibalism be legal?”,“why does God allow evil to exist?”,“Trump is a genius”, etc).

The U.S. also has a huge defense industry that has made people ridiculously rich at the expense of U.S. taxpayers. Those billionaires are heavily invested in the defense industry, so it’s not in their interests that wars end at all.

This is that “military-industrial complex” that former President Eisenhower warned us about so many years ago. His concern was that the U.S. would become bogged down in an endless series of “forever wars” that do nothing but transfer wealth to the already-wealthy.

Keeping that military industrial complex well-fed is the reason why so many politicians have such a boner for war. Not only to keep their wealthy sponsors happy, but to keep tax money and jobs flowing to their states, which just happen to manufacture war materiel.

If you’re growing onions in a field that doesn’t have proper drainage, the water/fertilizer can actually build up in the tissue of the onion and surface washing doesn’t help.

The E. Coli probably comes from the poop water the onions were soaking in.

I hate commercials that have NO connection to the product they’re selling. At all. Like, somebody literally wasted your company’s money to make a video about nothing.

Showing the benefits of your product is step 1 of advertising. Creativity is dead.

If the game is Elder Scrolls, then I beat the OS by waving my Wabbajack and the Windows OS turns into Linux.

Paisley. It was really popular pattern in the late 1960s / early 1970s in curtains and furniture.

I’m currently into 3D factory building games, so I would recommend Techtonica or Satisfactory.

Long gone are the innocent days when media outlets claimed the independence and nuance of the politics of Elon Musk

Lol. Stopped reading right there. The media will never get over its child-like worship of billionaires.

So does the crown prefer axes or cordless reciprocating saws for body disposal?

When you take file sizes into account, EBooks are the most high-density entertainment you can bring. Followed by old-school games, then music, then video.

I save my profanity for times and things that are truly worth getting upset about. If you use it all the time, then it becomes meaningless. It just becomes background noise and you sound like a 10 year old all the time.

I’d love it if VirtualBox emulated some really basic 3D cards (Voodoo 3, Radeon 9800) so I could do some old school gaming. I have a few old Windows games that won’t run under Wine.

Usenet was awesome. A distributed, decentralized network, with thousands of forums. Until it got taken over by spam and porn and a lack of moderation.

Now we have Lemmy. Let’s not mess it up.

Imagine if Wine became the new Windows. (Or became all that was left of Windows).
