Some form of translation, ai or not, along with an image description option (that users would proofread before posting) could actually be cool.

If they’re in a kickboxing class it sounds like they are.

I was a newly out queer teenager when OSC started running his mouth about gay marriage. At the same time I was a big Harry Potter fan.

Fuck Orson Scott Card, but he doesn’t seem quite so bad anymore.

Los Angeles still needs to give back our basketball team name. Fuckers.

Yeah, but fashion wise the Hornets were still the most popular. I grew up in Orlando. I’ve been to several Magic games. I still had a kid sized Hornets uniform when I was five or six.

I’m glad it’s not a thing here because as a “positive” incentive I feel like it drives some users to vapid karma farming over actually interesting and new content. That said, I occasionally miss it when there’s some unpleasant commenter douchenozzeling all over a thread and it’s an easy way to see if someone is always an unpleasant ass or if they’re having a bad day and otherwise make valuable contributions to Lemmy.

I’m not the person you’re replying to, but I don’t think it’s paranoid to think the three letter agencies have this tech. Back in 2013 NSA could do it, seemingly through a virus. Now? It’s probably more trivial on certain phones. Apparently the “find my iPhone” feature works on the most recent generations of iPhones even when they’ve powered off, and some phones will ring a set alarm when when off (I’ll get back to you with an edit if my older smartphone has that feature).

If you’re being specifically targeted by three letter agencies it might be a concern. Everyone else I don’t know.

I do not have a Virtual Boy, much to my shame and embarrassment.

Yes, but you do own the best console for playing Virtual Boy games, the 3DS. Red Viper is really good now.

I really like grocery store kombucha, and I’ve had several opportunities to get a SCOBY from friends who make their own kombucha, but I never have because, well, this.

And there’s stuff that just can’t be made into a Flatpak. Someone mentioned in another thread that they wanted to use Waydroid on their deck, Bazzite has it built in but Steam OS doesn’t - maybe there’s a way to layer it on SteamOS but that’s sort of tricky to do (idk I don’t have a Steam Deck but I run Bazzite on my laptop).

I think he could do it, but I think it might have unforseen knock on effects. I used to work for Disney, and even as an adult if you’re not actively preparing for it, it can be a bit jarring the first time you run into Goofy headless at the smokers table. And I was one of those kids that, even on my first trip to Disney I knew it was someone in a costume, so I couldn’t tell you if anything would be lost for some kids, maybe it’s like Santa? And Disney pretty actively discourages cast members from talking about this stuff - “what if a five year old is in earshot” and “don’t ruin the magic”, they taught euphemisms like “close personal friends with [character]” if you, say, wanted to talk about your friend who is close personal friends with Tinkerbell. And for as much of a soulless company as they are, Disney (at least 15 years ago) actively cared about crafting an experience in their parks, there is so much detail that people don’t realize is going on. Not acknowledging headless Goofy is part of that.

Being honest to kids is still probably more important than whatever bit of magic we all lose by doing so.

Note to self: stick to the Little Caesars, if it’s the neighborhood I think you’re referring to.

I wonder if Chrome started charging a monthly fee if that would be enough for them to start hemorrhaging users?

Ooh, Limo has a Flatpak? Nice. I’m running Bazzite on my laptop and have been wanting to play FNV for the first time but I’ve got it on Epic through Heroic Launcher. I’m guessing the file paths will be different but it should otherwise mod more or less the same as you said, I’ll have to try it. What kind of weird stuff did you have to do to get NVSE working?

Can I just point out that there was a point in time in living memory where this statement would be utterly deranged? (And it’ll probably soon be unusual again because of OTA updates…)

Although 420698008 isn’t bad…

Honestly that just sounds like a college humor skit.

Your comment made me finally get around to setting up Homecoming (hooray WINE!) and I just got to the character creation screen… I haven’t played since before it went to free to play what is all of this stuff? Oh well, I’m sure I’ll feel like I’ve come home once I’m running sewers, lol.

The appendix is a vestigial organ that doesn’t actually do anything in humans. (It might still fit the definition of vestigial, but it’s far from useless and we keep learning more about how valuable gut health is.)

I’m guilty of this a few days ago, but there’s no FOSS memes community on Lemmy and I don’t know if there’s enough interest to make one.
