Firefox a few years ago would kill my Mac battery in a couple hours, now it’s as good as safari for energy management. No reason not to use it as a daily driver now.
The general consensus is that hybrid builds are tricky and require a good understanding of the mechanics to pull off. You could pull builds from fextralife to make it easier, or just make a hybrid party made up of 2 magic and 2 physical damage dealers, which is far easier.
I got tired of managing the skills and inventories of 4 characters so I’m going to try another run with 2 line wolf hybrid builds. Probably will end up on east mode cause I want a chill experience.
I’d personally recommend an Aeropress over a pour over for a beginner. Pour over is actually pretty tricky to get great tasting coffee out of imo, aeropress is much harder to screw up.
This is solid advice. Learn the fundamentals, and maintain conversational knowledge of more cutting edge tech. As you get stronger in the fundamentals you’ll be able to speak intelligently about why you might choose to use some new fangled thing.
Not even close. Started a CS degree 7 years ago at 28 and am a director of engineering now, if it’s what you wan to do go for it. I will give a warning that the market isn’t amazing right now, and people getting into it just because they see the salaries is flooding the entry level positions. If you’re motivated and excited about building software you’ll be fine, but something to be aware of.

No idea where they're coming from, but people have been exchanging files on IRC files for year, why stop now? The obscurity of it is probably the only reason it's still around, it will never get enough attention for traffic to overload the servers, and nobody will bother trying to hit them with lawsuits.
Like the other comments have said, it’s probably not worth your time to bother. As to why you might want to start one:
- you’re finding the instance your on is too slow
- you want more control over which instances you’re federated with
- you like to tinker
- you want to build a meta-community that has its own identity
The iOS app I was using (DarkRed) was working until a few hours ago. Now my feed is empty so goodbye Reddit on my phone.
I’m not that concerned about the morality issue tbh. I want to browse content without ads and with a ux I enjoy. Reddit at its core is just a collection of forums and many of those forums are still active. I no longer can access those communities on mobile thanks to these changes, but old Reddit + RES + adblocker means that I can still browse on my computer. If this goes away then I’ll say goodbye to those communities, but since these communities haven’t migrated to Lemmy I’ll keep browsing.
He’s been around long enough that he doesn’t need to cater to the typical YouTube algorithm gaming that most channels do these days. But it’s a good point, I’d you do t know about him it’s be easy to miss.
It’s a different approach from Every Frame, but Thomas Flight scratches the same itch for film analysis.
Also a quick shoutout to a local urbanism channel with cool niche topics, About Here is pretty great.
I didn’t think I’d ever feel passionately about heat pumps, but thanks to his channel I’ll happily try to convince anyone I talk to that they need to switch to one.
Libgen is great for popular books, but the above guide is amazing for finding basically anything else. I’ve often needed to load up IRC to find more obscure books.
I’ve been following Lemmy and the fediverse in general for a while so I’m excited about this new energy. Like others have said, my reason for leaving Reddit specifically are:
- I won’t ever use the official app, fuck ads and bad U
- it sounds like old Reddit is going away, and I can’t stand new Reddit
- a platform more resilient to this type of changes is appealing
An integration with peertube would be pretty cool, I could see it happening.
As someone who can never find the right cable, I like using calibre’s content server. You start it up then open up the kindles built in browser and go to the listed address and download your books from there.
I use a Europiccola lever machine. I can get shots on par or better than all but the best coffee shops in my area (though the frother leaves something to be desired). I’m using a manual grinder, which is a good way to keep the budget down and keep quality high.
Been low key obsessed with this dude since his first line in The Witch. Such an amazing voice.
