Jokes on the witch, I brought my own finger-licking good taters with me into the cauldron. I keep them in pack 'round my waist.

Plus she’s boiling me frog style, so it’s going to take a while for me to notice.

You just pick something obvious and over elaborate on it. Big glasses, bright blue hat, etc also kids are mean, so pick a flaw, same idea.

It’s exactly what Twitter did too. Start off all open and friendly, here is our simple API, have fun, and people did. Then one day Twitter decided the API was too open and started to restrict it, limit tokens and users, charge out the ass. (And that was all long before Muskrat took over.)

In fact that’s true for a lot of tech companies.

One of the things that gives me hope for Lemmy is the speed at which it got great apps using that open API.

Is my $5 down preorder still valid?

Oh you’re right. I saw the 9/11 and missed the year, 2022.

Sadly the account is already suspended.

I thought Twitter was all about freeze peach.

I use flat case most of the time, but I also try to stick to single word files so there is no case to get in the way.

I think for documents I might share like a PDF I’d use Pascal case.

In a classroom or teaching setting I will sometimes use Kebab case as I find it is the least confusing and makes it extra clear where the word division is. Similarly I avoid Dot notation since it’s confusing for folks coming from a Windows world.

And I would avoid Screaming because that’s just too loud anywhere.

Lorelei.

Gen 1 Aurora Beam has a niche.

The nice thing about BG3 is that it isn’t going anywhere. In fact it’s getting a little extra polish the longer you wait (not that it needs it, just as a bonus).

BG3 was an excellent game a year ago, it’s an excellent game today, and I feel confident in saying it will be an excellent game for years to come.

It’s not some live service play every day for a chance to win a hat game. It isn’t an MMO where a year from now every will have moved on to new content. It isn’t a game with season passes and unrelated DLCs that screw up the balance or over gear your starting character or awkwardly take you out of the main game.

It’s just a solidly excellent game.

I agree but that is what Twitter seems to have done and for some reason it’s still around. Dying, but still around.

🎵I guess they finally made a monkey! 🎵

Sure that reveals your distro, but also consider what is in the logs you’re sharing. If you’re asking for help you probably also already said that you’re running Debian. Or the logs are full of apt logs already, querying a well known Debian mirror.

You’re right that PC is a fine default, but think about the whole picture as well.

Sure but if someone paid you $12m a year to throw a ball around, would you take it?

If another team offered you $13m would you change teams?

If everyone else is getting paid $12m, can I just pay you $50k?

Also if the entire NBA colluded to reduce everyones pay by $1m per year, every year, would that be fair and reasonable?

They’ll never remove it because that’s how they get AI training data.

It’s also a (US) election year, which tends to just be crazier than normal. It’s possible Reddit is tweaking things, but it’s also possible that election years bring out the worst in people. I definitely noticed a change back in 2016, less in 2020 but also COVID made everything weird.

There is also the obvious exodus of users in the past year. I’m not saying it’s a lot in terms of numbers, and I’m sure they were replaced, but I suspect some shift in demographics.

Also Twitter. Twitter had a huge rage problem before Muskrat took over, but now it is soooooo much worse. For some reason people don’t leave and then I’m sure carry over that rage to other sites.

You’ve been duped.

https://old.reddit.com/r/Millennials/

Seems to be the “real” subreddit.

https://old.reddit.com/r/millenials

With a missing second “n” seems to be a bot filled hell hole.

But also, I only left reddit a year ago and have never heard of the sub so who knows.

Also remember that Reddit as a whole is only going to get worse. The only goal is to make as much money as possible before it crashes in a cesspool of pure garbage like Facebook or Twitter.

Nobbleberry is my favorite show.

As far as I know. You could probably get fancy moving to dev mode and then install whatever, but I’m plenty happy with Debian.

Crostini. https://chromeos.dev/en/linux

A “one click” install of Debian (in a VM) that runs alongside your ChomeOS device. It’s a great starter tool for those getting used to Linux and even for the Linux Pro it gives you a terminal, which 99% of the time is all I need.

You can use GUI applications as well so GIMP and other tools are available.

Super easy, barely an inconvenience.

I just want to second the dirty gin martini.

I’ve never been a fan of the martini, but dirty gin is excellent.
