  • The only major allergy I have, I developed very randomly one night in my teens. I was hanging out with friends, I always loved cats, and they had this adorable cat that got super sweet with me. Next thing I know, my eyes are almost swollen shut. I've never been able to touch cats again.

  • So you could become a cannibal with no problems, then?

  • Yeah, where I'm from, you either pass things down to family and friends, or resell them, there's no throwing tech away.

  • I have no hope of ever having a normal relationship with them. I avoid talking about myself, my thoughts and feelings, and just nod and bite my tongue. The world won't change if I make them see the truth, so I'm not going to bother trying, just to bring more issues between us and risk being alienated even further.

  • Really depends on where you live. If you're not in the first world, you don't just find tech gadgets randomly on the street.

  • Is it because digital portraits aren't available in your country? Or because you're not aware they exist? Because they do, and they're not as expensive as tablets.

  • I think my instance has downvotes disabled or hidden. It also has a neat alternative front-end which turns upvote buttons into hearts, so it's more of a "like" count.

    It's much more peaceful that way.

  • With how they're also ramping up Christian crap in schools, I imagine them putting little wings and halos, and having kids pray for the drones.

  • DualSense (PS5) for me works right out of the box, especially in PC ports of PS games. It's USB-A to USB-C, so no prop cables.

  • Ha! That sounds really neat!

  • Also, don't associate songs with people in your life... 😑

  • I've always played video games one way or another, so I consider them all to be life changing. In a general sense, because getting games in my country wasn't easy in the 80's and 90's, and most would bring them from the US, so I learned English through the games, which opened the possibility to hang out (online) with people from around the world.

    But I think there's two games that marked me:

    Vampire the Masquerade Redemption, because until then I hadn't played any story-driven true RPG. And after I finished it, I moved on to games like Fallout and Dragon Age, which led me to learn about modding, communities, etc.

    The Last of Us, because until then no game (no matter how much I loved it) made me feel so intensely. I played it in several days, and each day I was emotionally exhausted. The ending left me speechless. I would wake up every day feeling like I'd been hit by a truck, for about a week or two.

  • Camarilla

    Was it a Vampire the Masquerade LARP?

  • I wanted to try Kagi because it sounds like they'd be better at curating their database and I wouldn't get SEO results? but they don't have regional or coherent pricing. 5 USD for 300 searches? 10 USD for unlimited searches? It's absurd. I get a whole suite of services for the same price as the "Professional" tier. Kagi's infrastructure can't be costlier than Proton's, or Mullvad's, or addy's, Bitwarden's, or Filen's, etc.

  • Any difference in edition will be obvious in the runtime. If the movie is 1:29:43 in the theatrical edition and there's a special edition that adds some time, say, a total of 1:47:13 runtime, you'll want to ensure that the Latino audio you're ripping is of the same edition. But the English and dub tracks will always be the same length for the same edition. Generally the Wiki articles of movies/shows have the runtimes. Or the fandom wikis.

    Afterwards you can just merge the audio and video tracks into one container file (MKV, MP4, etc.).

  • I could believe it if he was a nobody, but Musk was very famous and rich already. He was being name-dropped in every show and movie, everything he did and said was plastered everywhere, and was having great publicity with "his" companies.

    If he got killed after going public back then, nothing would have been gained by the Maxwells except place a spotlight on themselves.

  • I'm using Pop! OS 22.04, I'm happy with it. It's a good distro for gaming, BUT... lately there have been a lot of issues with the NVIDIA driver, and the Linux 6.16 kernel. I only recommend it if you're comfortable troubleshooting, using the TTY, and doing other stuff before giving up and deleting your whole drive. 😅

  • The guy who accuses everyone of being pedos didn't realize the "obvious" creep with his own island was a pedo? 🤔 Hmmmm...

  • but that “Epstein is obviously a creep.” He added, “He tried repeatedly to get me to visit his island. I declined.”

    🤔 Wait, so he made the connection and didn't say anything?

    Even his lies make him look bad.
