  • Fuck yeah Oregon. Let's keep this rolling. Where's my 2026 ballot measure?

  • I'll take two Pedros with a side of Henry
  • Can confirm. Skinny numetal kid in my teens, too many kitchen and bar jobs in my 20's and now mid 40's on Zoloft and apparently old goth dads are on the menu.

    Cheers man. May the well never run dry.

  • Lemmiers that own a non-Tesla EV with a charging station at home, how's your experience been?
  • Just moved down to Oregon from the Seattle area a few years ago and have a Mach-E.

    Similar setup to the other poster here. 50a installed at home. We plug in at night and have charging set to 80% and synced with the local utility to prefer off hours. Price wise, we're spending about $60 a month compared to the $200+ we'd spend on previous ICE vehicles. Combined with solar on the roof, it's been a pretty good value. Not a net zero for sure but overall good.

    If there's a long trip planned, we over ride settings to 100%. There's a ton of 300kwh chargers along I5 (0%-90% in 20 or so minutes every 3-4 hours). We've driven from Seattle to LA with no trouble a few times. Takes a little bit more planning but not too much of an issue.

  • Damn, one more blow to make that neighborhood completely unrecognizable.

    Bingo at Sam Bonds was a staple activity back in the day.

  • Nvidia is making some changes to GeForce Now membership, with a new monthly playtime limit provoking some controversy on social media.
  • It's a fantastic option at this point. I've been a GeForce Now user since 15 or 16 (whenever they launched the ShieldTV beta) and it's.... ok? You can still run it on deck as well of there's any concern.

  • Worth considering he could also use GeForce now while saving for a Steam Deck. Used ones go on sale for under $300 pretty frequently.

  • Goddammit this is an amazing comment. Thank you.

  • If we could start deplatforming extremist rhetoric online that would be a huge boon against these types of things.

  • Ukraine has already wiped out 40 ‘elite’ N.Korean soldiers in invaded Kursk
  • It's A Classic Wartime Tale, Saddam did the same thing with Iraq's Elite Republican Guard 30+ years ago.

    They were supposed to be the top tier of Iraq's forces and the US bombed them into the stone age with their opening salvo.

    Don't mistake propaganda naming for anything other than it is. Dictator dick waving.

  • I haven't been near anybody Meta's platforms for a decade at least. Sounds like it is still a shit hole of "content" designer and curated to push consumption down peoples throats. No wonder it's still called a feed...

  • What are some valid criticisms of Lemmy do you hear from people who tried out the platform?
  • Have you tried being more in to US Politics, Linux and Privacy? I've found several very vibrant communities for those here.

  • Feedback about our name: someone's concerns on sharing
  • As a shitter on the shitter I vote the name stays.

    I'll take that to Matrix and my grave. 🤣

  • Coming on Lemmy and complaining because there are too many Linux users is like going in to a brothel and complaining that there are too many hookers
  • I like the idea of pronouncing it hook-ai-rs just for the implications on Ubers becoming u-bears.

    "U-bears for hook-ai-rs" makes me chuckle. It's just the right amount of churches up.

  • It's a little irregular but she tours now and again still. I hope you get a chance to see her near you sometime! It would be worth a little drive if needed.

  • Song of the Day: Silent All These Years by Tori Amos
  • I've had the pleasure of seeing Tori live several times throughout the past few decades. This song always hits extra hard in person. What an incredible writer.

    Fuck corpo social media. Arch, btw

  • Whatever happened to racing games
  • There is also The Crew, Forza Motorsport, Forza Horizon as well as Gran Turismo to mention a few more that I have played. Plus a whole slew of hardcore F1 titles, Nascar titles and the Trackmania series.

    There might be something in there that catches your attention. Could just be a case of these not surfacing in your algorithm to get noticed.

  • Elden Ring Player to Sue FromSoftware Over High Game Difficulty

    Another article that highlighs inherent flaws in the American legal system. How can this potentially be an actual lawsuit? How can "journalists" even entertain reporting on this?

    Honestly I'm just posting to laugh at my fellow lemmings responses and watch see how the plaintiff is roasted for not gitting gud.

    But, there is a real conversation here around continued ignorance of game development and the value of difficult games as a value proposition. Afterall, the person attempting to sue from did choose to purchase the games willingly knowing they're not for scrub casuals like themselves.

    What do you all think, is difficulty gating content a real issue? Should dev's have some kind of legal requirement to appease players that can spec a build properly? Is it Thursday and I'm just looking for some easy laughs at a morons expense?

    People that enjoy Shipment, Nuketown and other such maps in Call of Duty... why?

    So I decided to jump into some call of duty whatever the most current one is now that it's free on game pass.

    The first two matches I was spawned into were on shipment. A map that I remember being absolute trash back in the day but it still is. The third match it went to put me in dropped me into that same map as well so I quit before it finished loading. Following this it dumped me into a match in progress where my team was behind by 25 points and there was 12 kills left before it was over.

    My question is, why do players seem to vote for this map over any other option most of the time? What is the fun or enjoyment that I am missing out on this box of spam? It's literally nothing but spawn killing and spawn dying.

    If you are a person that enjoys these, can you legitimately explain why? I'm not trying to make a troll complaint or anything. Just genuinely interested.

    Is this what the modern call of duty experience is like?

    LAN bypass on Linux

    Hi all,

    Is there a conf change I can make to bypass local address filtering with ProtonVPN on Linux? When I attempt to access NFS and SMB shares on LAN they fail to connect with Proton active.

    Thanks!
