But that is exactly what he recommends, using a password manager - with one time email authentication for the first login as an extra step, right?

I'd be interested in a discussion of his points here :) those sound like valid points he's making

You're not helping, but I sympathize (that AAF flashback is what got me unto this trail - and I got to AAF through this new Bam Margera doc that dropped on YouTube two weeks ago, maybe that will give you even more flashbacks)

There is this Alien Ant Farm song called "Sarah Wynn" about a drug using young woman.

Apparently the band saw a documentary about a woman with that name and wrote the song about her.

I need to know - is Sarah Lynn based on this?

What documentary was the song based on?

(Please help me, I am in pain from not knowing this)

Maybe it was a bit much to ask that during such an emotional moment? I mean, let the woman decide when she has her wits together..

This is the 4chan solution

I tried duckduckgoing it for quite a bit and failed. Does anybody have an idea?

Hey guys,

so I posted here a few weeks ago, with the idea of donating a gaming PC to a nursing home. I talked to someone in charge there today, this might actually happen.

Thing is, to try this out I would probably have to supply the software (Microsoft Flight Simulator being the most important now.)

As I understand it, you can only use the Flight Simulator with a Microsoft account. If I let them use my own account, that would mean a PC with my logged in account would be standing around there in the open, for anyone to access.

Does anyone have any idea how to approach this in a safe manner? I wish I could just buy a physical copy and let them have it for a while, before they buy their own. But even those need a connected Microsoft account nowadays, it seems.

Was also thinking of buying a used Xbox Series S (this might become the long term solution anyway), but same issue with the account, I believe.

(Man, modern gaming keeps finding ways to be annoying sometimes.)

P.S. If you have great game recommendations for octogenarians, bring them on!

What a f*cking stupid thing to say, get back to work you underachiever lol

Recently talked to a 90+ year old man in a park in front of his nursing home, guy is a former RC plane enthusiast. Can't do anything now because of his age, though. Bored all the time, sitting in the park is his highlight.

Thinking of donating an old gaming PC that can somewhat run the Microsoft flight simulator. Would that be a good idea? Can the average 80-90 year old use that at all, just speaking sensorically and motor skill wise?

Are there any other thoughts you have on that idea?

So I'm talking about playing previously Windows-only games on Linux, e.g. via proton.

I don't know about the libraries etc that are used - is it possible for Microsoft to use some legal voodoo, for example, to suddenly end it all, and make the use of their libraries illegal (if they belong to Microsoft in the first place)?

Or could there be other ways of interference?

I was thinking of something like the Duff Man theme and slapping sounds and moans, but I feel that Lemmy knows better.

(Obviously, I would start texting and calling him during the next meeting)

I've been reading the same thing a couple of times lately, company x removes Denuvo from game y.

What is happening? Are we returning to a state of innocence and purity?

You finally made it (lemmy.world)

Alright, your propaganda here over the past months has worked. I want to get into Star Trek. Where do I start? Can I take an abbreviated tour? Or do I need to go to TOS?

But.. does the mythical A battery exist?

Hello, I love this community, but I can't stand it that so many posts don't feature the year that the artwork was made. That's such important information, just to place that piece of art in context. Maybe it can be made a requirement to include the year? What do you think?

Seeing all the other comments talking about her cognitive deficiency, I want to add that I will take an honest, good-hearted politician with Down Syndrome over a corrupt asshole any day. And as if the average politician was smarter than a bag of bricks.

..apart from that, shit man, any conservative is one too many

I think it's silly to speak in full sentences to home assistants, when I really just use 5 commands most of the time.

It would be snappier to make weird sounds, produced by snapping ones tongue e.g., like some African tribes use in their languages.

Or any other weird, short sounds.

It might be more satisfying to use, and probably funnier.

Also, over the course of a few years this might find its way into everyday spoken language. Which would be wonderfully dystopian and maybe funny.

Yay. Hope this turns out great for him.

[-] sir_pronoun@lemmy.world 78 points 11 months ago

That is satisfying to read. Welcome to the EU, you man-child dictator

Did vogue really post this?

Give him some fake guns, more MDMA and fake attackers. Then let's sell this to Netflix
