Dawg you can shine a lightbulb at a solar panel and it’ll generate electricity. Them shits don’t care, a photon’s a photon

Pocahontas in space actually. But also Dances with Wolves but with big blue furries

The death threats were shitty, I agree. But they were at least partially fueled by the fact that we have lawmakers trying to make it illegal to use an operating system that doesn’t ask for your age. If that systemd change was introduced in a different time, I doubt people would have even noticed or cared.

Not trying to excuse the death threats, because again, that’s shitty, there’s no reason to do that. I think it’s important to understand the context and nuance around all that though.

Sure, make it an optional field that you can fill in with whatever. Don’t make laws requiring it though.

Kinda tough sell to release a $70 game, then leave it up to the modding community to finish it for you

A game can be either great or awful, with no more room for meh games.

I think it’s more just that expectations are much higher for a AAA studio like Bethesda. They built so much hype and asked for nearly $100 at launch for a game that didn’t live up. There’s plenty of meh games out there, they’re just priced accordingly. There’s also a ton of really great games out there priced way lower than what AAA studios are asking. I think it’s very fair to hold those studios to a standard that reflects the prices they’re charging.

It’s a fraction dude. I promise it won’t hurt you

He didn’t study until he was 33, he lived with his parents until he was 33.

You could maybe get a mechanical engineering degree, but CNC machining is pretty specialized, so a college curriculum might not be all that relevant. There are apprenticeship programs for that kind of thing though

Torrenting her work keeps it in the zeitgeist, and implicitly encourages others to purchase her media. If we truly want to stop J.K. Rowling from amassing any more wealth, we have to stop consuming her media.

Edit: I’m not sure why the one downvoter downvoted, but if it’s because you think it’s too hard to just stop consuming Harry Potter media and products, I promise you, it’s not

I’d love to live in an apartment block like that. Different strokes for different folks, you know?

The Fast and Furious franchise

Ugh. The sick sense of relief I got when they announced it was cancelled, and the disgusting, fleeting hope I felt when they announced it was coming back 🤢

“I prefer to keep my work separate from my living space”

• Feet up on the couch on either side of her waist, hands on the back of the sofa for support
• Kneeled down on the floor using mouth/hands

I feel like either of those would work even for tall people

Cool thing about Lemmy is you can just read the code and find out

Yeah it starts ticking back up after 2 monitors

And you were given a quite thorough explanation of why “but what if really BIG laser?” is a bad idea

I thought the card-based combat and deck building in Chain of Memories was fun, and the PS2 remake was really well done imo. KH2 is good, but story-wise, I don’t think anything can top 358 days/2, though Birth By Sleep comes close, and I like the combat in BBS more than KH2.

Skip re:Coded though, or just find a compilation of the cutscenes/story on YouTube. That one is ass

You’re with the normies in spirit, at least
