Alternative to squats for aging knees?
  • I recommend browsing videos from Squat University on Instagram and seeing if you can identify the specific type and cause of knee pain and rehabbing that before you write it off as "part of aging".

  • Are there any apps that are a half decent replacement of photoshop?
  • I've had to resort to multiple apps and they don't work GREAT even when combined. I was just complaining about this!

    I have Auto Photo Cut Paste for cutting faces/other parts out of photos fairly cleanly, and Picsart for actually combining/putting it together, but the Picsart tools seem kind of limited. It's not a full Photoshop replacement.

    I was able to make this using those two apps if it gives you an idea of what's possible. Face removed for anonymity.

  • Going from Tears of the Kingdom to Far Cry 5 is...quite an experience
  • It is really not a bad game, but I probably should have started something smaller and more indie after TOTK rather than going to a big studio game as the comparison isn't super fantastic. The comparison between the virtually bug free TOTK and this one is dramatic. Add to that the fact that the game plays very similarly to the last PC game I played and it's coloring my perception of it. It's just crazy to me that AAA western studios are willing to put out games with bugs after playing so many japanese games for the past year.

  • Going from Tears of the Kingdom to Far Cry 5 is...quite an experience
  • I think the most important takeaway I'm getting from this experience is that my usual playthrough method of trying to 100% a game by doing all the side missions and quests will not be rewarded much in this game due to the repetitive nature of it. I'm thinking I'll enjoy it more if I just stick mostly to the main plot. I grinded AC Odyssey for like 200-300 hours and I think this game is similar enough that I wouldn't get much out of it playing the same way.

    I still like the game, honestly, I just do think the dichotomy of the experience is throwing me off and making me appreciate Nintendo's ability to create virtually bug free, very complete gaming experiences more than I did before.

  • Going from Tears of the Kingdom to Far Cry 5 is...quite an experience

    I've played other Ubisoft games before, most recently AC Odyssey. Been on a Switch kick for a minute and smashed 200 hours in TOTK, potentially one of my favorite games ever at this point. But I wanted to switch it up and go through some of my PC backlog so I started up Far Cry 5.

    The beginning was decent...but it became very apparent quickly that the entire model of the game was very, well, familiar. In that it's almost identical in gameplay design to AC Odyssey. Add to that the almost distracting number of bugs in the game - constantly have civilians that I can't liberate for no reason, and if you use a game controller the reverse and decelerate buttons for driving vehicles straight up aren't even mapped - and my opinion is that this is a subpar experience. I haven't extensively looked up other people's reviews or experiences, but I was curious to know if anyone felt similarly.

    Visiting the US soon - do I really have to tip?
  • In most HCOL areas there is a higher minimum wage even for tipped workers, so keep that in mind. In DC for example minimum wage for tipped workers is going up annually over the next 4 years to meet regular minimum wage, up to about $17/hr. I anticipate tipping percentages should go down as this phases in as there will no longer be a differentiation.

  • Considering a steam deck
  • I'm considering getting one as well. Putting it off until a gifting holiday as they're expensive. Only debating between the cheapest and second cheapest size - I would get a microSD expansion either way but I'm not sure if it's better to have the additional space or not. Odds are I would only have two or three games installed at a time really.

  • I used an email address that would tell me where the spam is coming from to sign up for Lemmy. None of my spam email is coming with that email address so I don't think I'm getting spam from Lemmy sold emails.. I have noticed more phishing emails but I think it's just Gmail letting them through or being more targeted.

  • Global temperatures briefly spike above key climate threshold, scientists warn of more extremes
  • A huge portion of American carbon usage is personal transportation. The government can do many things to lower its carbon footprint but your life will look significantly different. Local governments are largely responsible for determining what citizens' primary means of transportation is and that's where people actually do have a lot of influence.

  • Uh...there are a lot of people with 5 day old Lemmy accounts, there was literally just a mass influx. Probably the majority of users came here within the last 5 days lol. Your account is one week old. Hell, most of the active users of Lemmy before the past week were posting content like this.

  • Global temperatures briefly spike above key climate threshold, scientists warn of more extremes
  • Christ. We need massive, global action. We need people in the west to commit to drastically lowering their carbon footprints, ideally by finding alternatives to gas powered cars and cars in general, and we need immediate action on geo-engineering. Atmospheric cloud dust, carbon capture, everything. We can't debate the ethics and morals forever. We just desperately need to start acting.

  • Reddit’s golden geese foul up its IPO plans
  • I mean some people are complaining about the price. But I don't care about the price necessarily, as I'm not "protesting". I'm simply tired of participating in the shittification of social media sites while they seek to monetize us. So them charging anything, or attempting to be profitable, is inherently the turnoff for me, because there is an inevitable path that a for-profit social media website takes.

    I've searched [email protected], that url above, https://lemmy.ca/c/fuckcars, and every variant I can think of - it never comes up in the search as a community I can actually join. I'm not sure what the problem is.

    Is it this specific instance/community, is it me?

    How many additional calories does each pound of muscle burn?

    www.strongerbyscience.com How many additional calories does each pound of muscle burn? • Stronger by Science

    Old-school gym lore suggested that each pound of muscle burned 50 calories per day. The more common figure you’ll hear from sciency folks is 6 calories. The truth is somewhere in the middle.

    You can re-capture quest horses from BOTW if you don't like their names on your BOTW save file

    Just migrating this information that I verified over from reddit into Lemmy.

    I didn't like the names of the Royal White stallion and the Ganon horse that got migrated over from my BOTW save file into TOTK. I released both the royal white Zelda horse and the black Ganon horse (one at a time to test it and keep my save files in case it went wrong). The Ganon horse respawned south of Hateno/east of Lurelin, the Zelda horse spawned north of Skull lake above the cliffs. For the Zelda horse I double checked before releasing and it did NOT spawn until I released it.

    So if you want to rename your horses, make a save file BEFORE you release them, release them one at a time, and then go to the correct locations to recapture them.
