DeLancre

Why would such abomination even exist tho?

I’d prefer that over it being meaningless.

Folks, I think we found that mysterious target audience behind “Star Trek: Discovery”

Slavic languages notoriously have gender for every object. In russian “friend” have two variants, one for male gender, one for female. Same at least with Ukrainian and Serbian. So when I translate sentence to English (which only have one word for “friend”) I subconsciously use default word + she/he to empathize gender.

It’s annoying habit, cause when I say or refer to “user” for example, I always assume it’s “he/him”.

Guess same for your colleagues.

I have no clue why that triggered people so much. Never stated that I have any problem with that, nor that I need any help solving it. I leave my apartment like, once per month and cause living in EU - there no need to “travel” further than opposite street to buy anything I may need.

On top of that, point was that it’s issue for other people in general. Explain how to setup tailscale to your grandma, I dare you.

what i could buy with 20-30€ costs over the hundreds

Khm-khm, arm boards, khm-khm

No like, for real, why 16gb arm board like O6 now costs almost 1k euro? 32gb version right now 1400 euro on aliexpress. FOR WHAT? Finest chinesium?

And “affordable” Raspberry Pi with as much ram as my toaster (and similar CPU at that) now costs more money, than regular small mini PC on x86.

You can use a DDNS

I need to dig into that a bit more, but I’m not sure if it will work with NAT on ISP side (with is a common thing at least in region I’m from).

Not everyone have static IP and device that can work as server. But yeah, it’s not like you can’t find work around: something like old android phone or spare notebook with pinggy on top would do the trick. Still, point stands - as for now it’s less convenient option.

Music services still pretty useful. I’m using deezer for example, it can stream lossless audio and kinda okay with “radio” mode. Used spotify before, but it infuriated me by suggesting same music I already heard for 20-50 times. It’s like at some point it just traps you in your own bubble of 100-200 songs.

The alternative would be downloading thousands of albums in flac and uploading to multiple devices. Plus you need to add new music, which includes searching for that mentioned music. So yeah, nah, I’m okay with paying subscription for now. Until they eventually go to shit like video services did. Then we will need to come up with “popcorn time” alternative for music I guess.

Yes, but actually no.

2 things:

1. Dislike button itself not "wired’ to any visible/meaningful count and only seen by video author (which is funny, cause whole point of hiding dislike count was promoted as “beneficial to mental health of channel owners”)
2. If you using youtube dislikes — it replaces that button with it’s own, counts presses on its own and uses own logic to show “approximate” amount of dislikes on video: it’s not like it knows real count, what I’m trying to say

SeductiveTortoise

Yeah, nah, you not beating the allegations here. Clearly you on the LGBT+ spectrum somewhere.

“not gay enough” apparently is a thing now

I’m not worthy enough — I swap accounts faster than you can blocklist me.

Goes to work, has to use Windows 11 computer and solidworks

My job pushed windows on us two years ago. I work as freelancer and don’t have much choice, it’s either “comply” or “leave”.

and there will most definitely be

You clearly made a grammatical mistake here bud, please remove “will be” from your sentence.

I’m afraid we will disappoint you further here, cause steam machine is just a PC with SteamOS (which is “just” an Arch Linux with few tweaks\changes). So all those issues described above and their workarounds also applied to steam machine.

Same here.

And if there no protondb info or it have “platinum”, then start praying. Also, god forbid if you want something extra like FSR4 or install some mods. Then you mixing this things to whole “is that my hardware\software\proton issue or game genially bugged?”

If only custom roms was available for any phone tho. :c

Like, I had to buy new phone two years ago, cause my previous phone was falling apart (literally, I had to reglue the screen) and the only good option that was on the market without annoying notch for front-facing camera - was nubia z70. No notch, no weird “eyebrow”, nothing. Just screen, as it fucking supposed to be. Long story short, it have pretty fast snapdragon, but there no roms cause of that. Plus bootloader straight up locked from the factory and afaik, there no way to unlock it easily.

Take my upvote and get through this week
