Even when the ban is permanent, big streamers usually get unbanned in a few days at most.

The unfortunate reality is that the clickbait game works.

Almost 30 and I don't remember ever getting such a bad hangover. Heck, I used to get sober on the way home before even crashing on the bed.

Runescape Valheim is a weird pitch but I guess it looks ok

There was a recent update allowing for more options for viewing votes, which I believe has broken the app in this regard. When logging in from other instances tgat don't have these changes yet, it works as expected.

Not sure if this is the place to ask but I looked around and couldn't find a better place, nor anyone talking about this.

I currently can neither see upvotes and downvotes, nor vote.

Edit: I logged in my PC and they are there. I think it's something with Sync, sorry for the confusion!

I'll preface this by saying I've only used cherry mx brown switches before.

Recently I decided to try Akko Silver linear switch, and while it feels great when I'm gaming, for work I've been getting the tips of my fingertips hurting. Is it just me or are they not for this sort of thing?

Maybe you haven't been convinced by a good enough argument. Maybe you just don't want to admit you are wrong. Or maybe the chaos is the objective, but what are you knowingly on the wrong side of?

In my case: I don't think any games are obliged to offer an easy mode. If developers want to tailor a specific experience, they don't have to dilute it with easier or harder modes that aren't actually interesting and/or anything more than poorly done numbers adjustments. BUT I also know that for the people that need and want them, it helps a LOT. But I can't really accept making the game worse so that some people get to play it. They wouldn't actually be playing the same game after all...

I did it. For a few years now I've wanted to make the jump but lazyness and a bit of worry that my main game wouldn't work very well kept me from it.

Then some effing windows update caused ridiculous stuttering on games (or maybe it was a auto-update of some other hidden thing, I couldn't figure it out) so I decided that if I needed a system wipe, might as well as try gaming on linux.

Honestly? Much easier than I expected. Install Steam, turn two options on and 90% of your library is ready to go. I had to tinker with getting freesync to work (ended up just switching to wayland, which just worked) but other than the plugins I use for my main game requiring a bit of more work, smooth as butter really.

So yeah, if you are a lazy gamer like I am, next time you do a system wipe or get a new computer, try installing linux first. Don't even bother Dual booting it, if you don't like it just reinstall (setup your usb drive with ventoy and the images you want to try out.)

No, YAML can fuck right off. I hate that this shit format is used for cloud stuff.

Yeah it was fun in the beginning, after all who never thought about being transported to another world where you ate a big hero with swords and magic?

But what the hell, I'm pretty sure there's more isekai now than other genres/settings. It's gotten to a point that if I see the tag I just move on.

Right now, we feel that Lemmy and ActivityPub have downsides that are limiting us from achieving that goal.

Could you expand on this? How exactly does these things prevent you from Being Nice, if that's the goal of your community?

[-] lorty@lemmy.ml 64 points 1 year ago

Don't worry bro just turn on fake frames and upscaling. Now we get shitty graphics AND raytracing at the same time!

I'd rather deal with this supposedly "toxic" lemmy userbase than sift through a thousand comment post where 900 are bot reposts on reddit

They want cheap workers, not more.

Be very careful. An expensive mattress, if you care for it, can last a long time and will definitely help with your pains. But just because it is expensive does not mean it is actually good, let alone good for you specifically. There are many types of different mattresses and you should take some time to find one for you.

TLDR: lie down on it before buying.
