Poets Of The Fall. They aren’t too known but they are the ones behind many Remedy games soundtracks including Control and Alan Wake. Dam they’re good, especially their Alexander Theatre session and live performances.
Well, I have the money and I prefer having different meals multiple times a day without spending time on it. People usually forget that time is also worth something. Additionally, sometimes restaurants have some dishes which are just hard to cook at home, whether that depends on the ingredients or the cooking procedure.
Speaking of tips, it’s not a thing here in Georgia (the country). We tip only and only if the service worker went above and beyond to provide a better service, or to fulfill some request they weren’t supposed to. I am never going to support, or be a part of a business model (and doesn’t matter who it benefits and how) in which paying the exact listed price for the service is considered shameful and/or disrespectful. And in any model, I am definitely not tipping in the

situation.
If they existed for tons of random usecases. When was the last time you created views for “just in case someone asks” situations?
As a former Arch/Debian enjoyer on all my rigs in between 2012-2017, I can say several things but they might be outdated as of now. I haven’t rechecked it so here goes the list of things at that age:
Anything remotely related to Nvidia, especially if you had switchable laptop graphics. Running games was a nightmare and a coin flip. Sometimes you can get games to work, but you got an awful screen tearing even in OS, sometimes it’s vice versa.
PulseAudio was problematic. Sometimes booting the pc up resulted into missing audio output or input, or both. Sometimes, under heavy load, lots of audio was crackling until PulseAudio server was rebooted. Rebooting PulseAudio required restarting many apps so they even produce sound.
Drove away for like 2 months, came back to dead Arch install after updating it. Switched to Debian cause I realized I value stability over newer stuff. Until I bought newer hardware which just didn’t work at all, can’t recall what that was to be honest.
At least during 2012-2015-ish, any browser scrolling was jittery. Like, any. I heard it’s fixed right now but every time I used to boot Windows, it was completely different web experience.
As soon as I started using laptops, I noticed that my battery was draining like 2-3 times as fast. Shouldn’t be an issue nowadays I hope.
Printing was hell of a nightmare. Especially when I tried bringing my laptop to the office printer.
Probably also related to Nvidia, but still: connecting external monitors never yielded out-of-the-box experience I expected to see. Nothing used proper resolution, scaling or refresh rates. Lots of things required manual configuration every time.
Office software in general. Thank god most people switched to web alternatives right now.
Back in 2012-ish years, Flash was still common and it generally refused to work in many distros. Especially with Nvidia graphics.
There are plenty more reasons I decided to ditch Linux on my workstations and the ones above are just “honorable mentions”. The biggest thing I found myself doing is tinkering with my setup much more than doing actual work.
So currently I just use a Windows laptop and WSL when I need local Linux. And of course I monitor and configure hundreds of Linux machines at work. I also have a Macbook Pro 16 mainly for iOS apps debugging and watching movies in bed.
I can say I’m currently neutral to Linux, Mac and Windows these days. They have their own use cases for me and they all allow me to reach my goals in their own way. Just getting best of each world, I guess?
I live in Georgia (the country) and I am speaking mostly of internet experience. Yeah it could include non-native speakers, that’s why I mentioned “most people I know”. I still prefer the way you mentioned as it’s much clearer anyway.
No 12/24h, only unix timestamps.
On a serious note, anything that other people understand works. 6-oh-five isn’t a mistake but I generally hear “5 past 6” from most people.
Whatever Alexa says is probably meant to be localizable to other languages as well.
0.618? Sounds like ex-0.75 to me
A bedside arm for mobile phone. No more uncomfortable phone holding for bedtime youtube session.

Stop. Bypassing. Our. Filters. Please.
Thanks for mentioning Kagi! I’ve been looking for some Google/DDG replacement but every single one I’ve tried had some sort of dealbreaking drawback for me. Google collects all my data and heavily filters my results, DDG provides dogshit results most of the time I don’t even bother using it, Startpage is awfully slow, and I didn’t even get to understand what Searx is as looking for it led me to some random ugly pages.
Subbed for 1 year 10 bucks plan. Works super-fast on mobile too. Hell yeah!
Control.
The beginning of the game is really slow, hard to understand what’s happening, and you literally have only minimal throwing ability. The manual navigation with overlay fullscreen map also doesn’t do justice to the game. Combining with the fact that I wasn’t used to playing these types of games, this was an easy pass for me after like 1 hour of the game.
But boy it’s awesome as you actually get more abilities and understand more of the story. Currently it’s one of the games I usually come back to.
100% agree. At least we can tag people (unsure if it’s client-side feature of Sync or whatever), so there’s that.
Yeah I lurk most of the time and comment on neutral topics sometimes, but generally the content isn’t too engaging.
It’s either memes, Linux (or memes about Linux), or this or that type of politics. Lots of bot-generated content, too many American-based sports teams; lots of repeating topic content (e.g. shitload of musk, trump/biden/whatever), lots of community and/or news duplicates. I won’t be lying I’ve seen like 5 reposts of some amd threadripper news in my active feed within 10 pages.
Sometimes I know that engaging into a small comment will yield zero replies, and other times I feel like the response will most likely be frustrating. What I valued about reddit is diverse topic discussions, interesting questions and fun reads. But people seem to have more fun bypassing my anti-politics filters in-between porn. I honestly think we need to revive many communities related to questions, interesting topics, and overall “lets-have-a-chat-on-something” (preferably not related to what I mentioned above, or at least that touches a broader audience).
Do I contribute a lot? Am I the one to tell people what to do? I don’t think so, but when I have a will to create some content, that will is usually cut off by zero-to-none expected engagement from other people. People wanna do what they wanna do, I guess. I don’t blame em.
How is downloads folder not important? For most people this is literally the biggest folder of files containing everything they ever downloaded, and it may also include downloads from messengers, e.g. Whatsapp and Telegram.
Should both be the same commands. Adding should be done by remembering previous contents, no other way is allowed.
The fuck is this title lol
Why are you bypassing our filters by censoring the word, may I ask?
I’d personally at least give them a chance. Defederating is a pretty easy process and can be performed at any point in time. At least some Threads users may as well get to know about Lemmy and switch to it.
Upd: yes I do understand many people don’t trust Meta and neither do I. But I also understand lots and lots of users here are using anonymous accounts, and federation information is already public to begin with. Combining the fact that Fediverse may gain more than it may lose, including more users, original content, recognition and etc, I generally think it’s worth the risk. I am generally content with any decision, just sharing my two pennies of thought.
