Recovering software developer, computers resenter
I like playing the bass guitar, painting, and some other things I'm not very good at

You can collapse comments on the web interface (don't know about the apps), but it doesn't appear to persist across page reloads. Might be a good feature request
Friendship ended with font gatekeeping and dogpiling, accessibility is my new best friend
All mine are modern budget models. As much cool factor as there is to a vintage axe it's nice not worrying about parts and electronics (and nitrocellulose finishes!) that are older than my parents :-). In terms of sentimental value, nothing beats my first, a 2003 Squier Affinity I got for Christmas:
Also most of mine only have four strings for some reason???
if the steam locomotive is also called the iron horse, then rail enthusiasts are technically a kind of horse girl
Thank you <3
RDR2 suffers heavily from the same problem as GTAV's single player mode: it's a movie posing as a video game and both aspects suffer for it.
RDR2 would have been great if it was just the part where you wander around tracking critters and collecting flowers and playing cowboy dress-up, but the game really doesn't want you to do that. Not to belabor the point, but between how unpredictable the connection between "interact with item/character X" and "start mission with character Y" can be and the game's tendency to fail missions the second you go off-script, RDR2 often felt like it was directed by someone who actively resented the concept of player agency.
The soundtracks from NieR:Automata and NieR Replicant are definitely my favorite of all time.
Halo: Reach and Halo 3: ODST are also very good.
Beans are good. I'm from Texas and there are a lot of people here who think chili with beans isn't real chili. They're full of shit (beans'd help with that too)
I'm @[email protected]. Just set it up though, so there's nothing to see yet :-)
which faces scaling issues because each instance joining the network is supposed to replicate the entire Matrix network
Makes sense, after all matrix multiplication is O(n2).
If you're not playing hand-held, make sure your TV is set up to minimize input delay (usually called "game" mode or something like that). An extra few tens of milliseconds of lag can make a game like Hollow Knight unplayable :(
I hadn't really actively engaged with Reddit in years, and I stopped lurking almost cold turkey when they killed off the personal homepage on the mobile web interface earlier this year. I deleted my account when the Apollo news broke (I've never even used a third-party app, but it's crystal-clear what direction the wind is blowing). I only found out about lemmy after I pulled the plug.
Now to figure out how mastodon and all the other "fediverse" apps work :-)
It's weird, a little confusing, and a little janky. Love it so far. It's not a novel observation on my part but it definitely feels new and exciting the way Reddit and Tumblr did back in the day.
My two favorite Emacs jokes:
- What does EMACS stand for? Eight Megabytes And Constantly Swapping.
- Emacs is a great operating system; it only lacks a decent text editor.
Can you imagine a world where a program originally designed to manipulate documents was extended through a highly dynamic, kind of half-baked interpreted language to the point of underpinning almost every application you interact with on a daily basis and using an order of magnitude or so more resources than are actually necessary?
Me, a firmware developer, writing baby's first CSS:
Most non-free firmware packages have been moved from non-free to non-free-firmware
GRUB packages will by default no longer run os-prober for other operating systems.
These were the two actionable takeaways for me. Easily sorted, and so far bookworm is humming away smoothly.
The oatmeal bar sounds amazing. Would you say they're a filling snack?
Second the apples, too. "If you're not hungry enough to eat an apple, you're not hungry." Wish someone had told me that twenty years ago :)
Loot is great when it's unique, or at least rare. Unique weapons and lore items in Dark Souls come to mind.
But yeah, loot that just fills up your inventory (or worse, your equip load) until you go sell it is just Worse Money.
