Dang, that stinks - I actually enjoy the steering mechanics in this game. It’s the only mobile game I have played in many many years because it’s easy to play a race or two and put the game away.

Cool - forcing ads into the start menu, forcing edge on users. Guess like Win10 is where I leave windows forever.
I downloaded Mandrake Linux back in 1992. I’ve always fiddled with linux over the years but could never fulfill all my needs. But things have changed recently. I’ve started using ChatGPT to help me when I hit roadblocks with Linux, and it’s REALLY helped work around the various barriers that have kept me from fully adopting linux. Honestly, I am looking forward to switching entirely over to Linux for my business - I’m tired of Windows. And I’ve been here since Win3.1!!
Well cool, I hope it does. I’m not a hardcore gamer, but the Nintendo Switch interested me for the occasional mario kart session. But all the Joycon drama scared me off from buying one. I’ll hold out for a few more years before splurging - I’m in no rush, I rarely game or watch television anyway lol
I haven’t done much with Excel and Word these days, but I have not had a single issue opening standard documents. The PDF import capabilities for LibreDraw work reasonably well. Many MANY years ago I fiddled with OpenOffice and then LibreOffice before moving to Office365 for a while.
Now I’m back to LibreOffice for the past 5+ years and haven’t had any complaints
Dammmn, that’s a sick burn. I love it
Lol, oh sweet child. You have much to learn about what a corporation says, and what they’re forced to do by government regulations. Without them, corporations can (and will) do anything they want for the sake of more profits.
Unfortunately, with a country run by a bunch of geriatrics who hardly understand the concept of the “internet” and hardware/software, let alone the nuances of different social media platforms or how different communities within the internet interact.
I avoided chrome for a long time. Finally I made the switch because FF was getting too slow on old computers back in the day. Lasted for maybe five or six years before I started getting some bad vibes. Why am I letting google run the web browsing software I’m using? This can’t/won’t be good in the future.
At least five years ago I made the switch back to Firefox, and haven’t looked back. I love having adblocking that works (I use a router level ad block and ublock origin just in case to ensure I block almost every ad on the internet lol).
I’m honestly surprised it took people this long to decide to move away from Chrome.
I love these types of articles. I feel like there should be a community for these, but I don’t know what it’d be called

Cool thanks for that, I’ve honestly never fiddled with Open SUSE, I gravitated to Linux Mint a while back and like that it’s still under constant development.
Hot dang, I never heard of that mod, I’ll have to check it out! lol
Quake itself was ok. The multiplayer version was fun. But the real fun started when people began modding the game. The original Team Fortress was actually a free mod for Quake which I’m pretty sure quickly became the most popular instance of the game for online play.
Funny random tidbit, I actually remember playing the game with one dude who specifically had to brag about having a high powered 1ghz processor as his username in the game (something like 1gigahertz or something cheesy like that). Pretty sure back then I was still rocking a 700mhz AMD Athlon Thunderbird processor.
Y’all ready for a wild ride through the most fashion-forward shifter boot experience this side of the Mississippi? Picture this: you’re sittin’ pretty in your trusty ol’ jalopy, gear-shifting like a champion, but somethin’s missin’, ain’t it? That’s right, it’s the unmistakable touch of Mother Nature herself, wrapped around your shifter like a cozy critter hug. Introducin’… wait for it… the Squirrel Shift Sack!
Now, I reckon y’all might be thinkin’, “Why in tarnation would I want a shifter boot made from squirrel fur?” Well, lemme tell ya, it’s a revolution in automobile elegance! Just imagine cruisin’ down them dusty roads, feelin’ that squirrelly softness under your palm, like you’re holdin’ onto a piece of the wilderness right there in your rig. Ain’t nothin’ more exhilaratin’ than shiftin’ gears while a squirrel’s cheerin’ you on from beyond the grave.
You see, folks, this ain’t just any ol’ shifter boot – it’s a statement. It says, “I’m a pioneer of panache, a trendsetter with a taste for the untamed.” And don’tcha worry ‘bout them PETA folks – these here squirrels done lived their lives to the fullest, and now they’re enhancin’ your automotive experience like never before.
Now, I know what y’all are thinkin’: “How in blazes do I get my mitts on one of these critter-cozy shifter boots?” Fear not, my friend, ‘cause we’ve got a whole network of squirrel wranglers scourin’ the backwoods for the finest furs. We treat them squirrels with respect, givin’ ‘em the send-off they deserve, honorin’ their memory as they ride shotgun in your ride.
So, if y’all wanna make your gear-shiftin’ game as smooth as a skunk’s backside, you better believe the Squirrel Shift Sack is the way to go. It’s quirky, it’s cozy, and it’s downright country cool. Get ready to show off your squirrel swagger and leave them other drivers in the dust, wishin’ they had a piece of that woodland wonder right in their palms. Saddle up, folks – it’s time to squirrel up your ride!
Loving the tool - but when i try to login and put in the instance of kbin.social it gives me an error
Just don’t subscribe. When netflix pissed me off, I unsubscribed. When Adobe moved to a subscription based platform, I forced myself to learn alternative applications (although I still have a copy of Adobe Creative Suite from 2003 which I am still using on old laptop when needed). When Microsoft started charging a subscription to use “office” apps, I switched to LibreOffice. During Covid when I wasn’t using my gym membership I cancelled it and used that $75/month savings to start building a home gym setup (it ain’t great, but its better than nothing!)
If something is a subscription, I either find an alternative program/service, or simply don’t use it.
Well shoot, just sold a bunch of classic gameboy and game-gear games on ebay within the past few months. Some of my oldest games date back to 1989
This was actually discussed a few months back

For sure. I have a micro homestead with a lot of chickens (dozens upon dozens lol) - we raise them for eggs, meat, and the manure (which we use to make awesome soil for the garden). We keep the coop extremely clean (like multiple times a month we clean it out), and we keep our chickens healthy (constantly treating for parasites, mites, worms, etc) so they live a happy healthy life.
Those eggs come out clean in the nests because we keep them clean as well. I personally would probably rinse it off right before cracking open just because it’s me, but yeah there’s no salmonella in our coop because we maintain sanitary conditions (probably way more than the average backyard chicken owner).
20 years ago, I had an insurance plan with AT&T. For $30 I could “replace” my phone under the insurance policy (once per year). Then the plan changed it was a refurbished phone not new… then eventually the insurance plan went to a surcharge of $200 to replace with a refurbished phone.
Back in the old days I simply upgraded every one or two years under the insurance plan. But that was the days before smartphones really took off.
These days I don’t have that insurance plan, and simply hold onto my phones as long as possible. I don’t get it either.
I have a Galaxy S9 that I’ve had for five years and it just won’t die on me. Not that I’m complaining, I honestly have no clue what I’ll buy next. But I don’t get the need to upgrade annually.
Hopefully you’re doing better!
