I know saying "how many people still watch LTT" is kinda dumb with the views they pull in, but fuck haven't most people outgrown them? LTT helped me learn a lot of stuff when I started really getting into PC gaming decade ago, but after a few years I felt like it was just tech fluff videos. Most of their videos seemed like an ad for some fotm tech or just very basic concepts. I just don't see how people can still watch it after a few years just because it seems they make their videos to attract the lowest common denominator.
Fun fact, textfiles is Jason Scott's site. He's the head archivist at internet archive. Always doing cool stuff if youre bored and have some time to blow this morning.
I've been a fan of Continue? for over a decade. Just a weekly let's play series that's kept the spirit of the early 2010 gaming YouTube alive.
I had a family member try to get me to listen in 13 and even then it was bullshit. I really never listened to it but I'm guessing it just became more blatant as time moved on
Funny part is the tax lady who refused to do their taxes was a confirmation sponsor of one of his grandkids.
American presidents are DLC confirmed. Why cant we get a base game leader
We Love Katamari might have a better soundtrack depending on the listener. I find myself humming more of We Loves soundtrack than the first game
There's a legitimate pizza place around me that's been around for ~50 years. My mom went to school with the owners children and when she was in high school their dad had a small stint in jail for tax evasion and unregistered and hot guns. Apparently he was importing a lot of guns from Italy and one day a shipment got caught. About 10 years ago, my mom became friends with someone who was hired to do their taxes. She didn't give any details, but she told us the numbers really didn't add up and she had to drop them as a client their first year due to ethical reasons.
The thing is the pizza is really good and kind of an institution in my town. I wouldn't say it is strictly a front, but money does move through it. The family also owns a lot of small strip malls in the tri county area and some historical properties as well.
Oh and one of the sons married one of their 2nd/3rd cousins from Italy in the 90s. The rumor was it was just to help her get citizenship but they are still married to this day and it's kinda weird.
Snagged an 840 G6 for a little more than 100 and it's working fine. Had the company send me a new touchpad and there hasn't been an issue since
I just tried to set up Chiaki on mxlinux and ran into issues rebinding the controls to my dual sense. I am running the appimage or the most recent Chiaki and was able to connect to my PS5. When trying to rebind the controls from KB it was not recognizing any inputs from my controller. I made sure I had libsdl up to date and checked a few games on steam and the controller seems to be working there. I found a workaround using a program to bind your controller buttons to key input, but that seems like a bad way to go about it limiting the sticks and triggers to only on/off.
Would it be easier to just use wine or lutris to run the standard PS remote program?
Held my chiweenie up like this to my wife last week and said look long dog. After a puzzling look I realized my meme game ended a decade ago.
This is not how it works and I believe you know this. Fuck off
I'm looking to host my own website and mess around with some services but my current home server is already pushed to the max. Planning on getting some thin clients for proxmox when I have some more money, but for now I wanted to mess around on Oracles free tier to test some stuff. I heard they will randomly delete accounts / free cloud vps and was wondering if there was a way to mitigate this. Some post I've seen seems to be tied to not having a CC on file with them so after 30 days or so when it "charges" your account and there is no payment option, the vps will get deleted. Does anyone have experience dealing with this? I wouldn't mind adding a card to the account as long as I won't wake up to a huge bill one day because I went over the limit.
I am lucky my MicroCenter is in the worst parking lot in the city. It's a local meme how awful this parking lot. I've probably saved a few thousand by refusing to drive that lot.
What sites have issues with Firefox? I've been using firefox exclusively since 06 besides trying chrome for 2009-2010 and never had any issues. Not saying they don't exist but it seems like a very small amount that won't function at all.
Sucks because you had to drink a verification can after saying it.
I need my coffee. I clicked on the link expecting to see the cost of hot air balloons being incredibly high.
Stuck in Missouri taking care of my grandparents and my wife's parents. I've been wanting to move out of this shithole since I was 13. Now, I have to worry about reproductive issues with my high risk wife as it seems like we are hunkering down here entering our 30s.
Hey, just got a 2014 Honda fit about a month ago and it's getting hot. The windows have no tint on them and I was wondering how big the difference is between tinting the back windows and getting shades for the backseat. My state allows rear and back seat windows to be tinted, but I don't have the money to do that now. I was about to order a shade for my front windshield and was wondering if an always on shade in the back seats and trunk would help with heat, or if it's more of a privacy thing.
Paris with that stupid 1/4 turn tilted forward smile of hers. Vualla, no more accusations of view hacking, and all it took was an obscure movie sound.

Hey, looking into investing into a pair or two of shoes for work. I'm in IT now but worked warehouse and restaurant jobs before this and shoes were by far the biggest qol purchase I made. My current job is pretty relaxed on "business attire" but I want some sneakers and slip ones that look professional while being comfy and will last awhile. All my past work shoes/boots have been Red Wings and that's the standard im looking at.
Hey, I was thinking about getting a VPS and hosting my own single user Lemmy instance. I am trying to think of other things to host. I already have some old hardware running unRAID with Plex, the *arrs, Kavita and home assistant. This is pushing my hardware to the limit but I still want to mess around with some self hosted things. Is there anything you would rather host on a rented server as opposed to a server sitting at your home?
I've been hearing about Animal Man for the last few years, but never got around to reading it or really much of Morrison's work. I already knew the ending before I started, but it didn't take away from the experience at all (or maybe it did, but I was still floored by it). Even the issues that didn't involve metafiction were just great superhero stories. I think the first 4 issues alone would still be remembered if Morrison didn't get to continue the series afterwards.
Now I am looking forward to reading their run on Doom Patrol and dig deeper into their works. Maybe I'll check out Alan Moore's Swamp Thing as well.
