The very idea of a user-generated content free-to-play MMO for children with whack-a-mole moderation is totally bananas. Even good whack-a-mole moderation would be a bananas design.

I’m okay with little kids online gaming, but it needs to be in content that has been approved by a responsible adult in a setting where either adults are actively supervising or the children are on a server where we know everybody who’s in there.

Isn’t the antichrist supposed to be a charismatic leader?

Geforce 3060, and yes. Sometimes my primary screen gets locked at my secondary screen’s framerate. The whole OS is especially wonky after wake from sleep, I often have to restart Firefox and Cinnamon after wake. WebGL things in Firefox are especially finicky. The panel-applet-spice things are horrendously single-threaded, some of lock the whole UI regularly.

I’m going to try some other Debian-based OS in the hopes that this is just Mint+Cinnamon and not the state-of-the-art.

I tried Mint and it’s just too buggy to use.

It’s almost like letting freaks take over your political movement can drive away normal people.

A pleasant reversal from the usual situation. Like, all the regulations that sandbag against housing are municipal, which can only be overridden by the provinces.

She’s been a public figure for more than her whole adult life. If she were a habitual liar it’d already have come up.

Various detectors you use when trying to debug a problem – ethernet testers, decibel meter, battery discharge tester, thermal camera, wifi and cellular signal analyzers, air quality testers, radon detectors (edit: hah of course this is what article is about), stud finders, etc.

Overly-specific tools – ethernet crimpers, obscure driver bits.

Lemmy blocking is worthless anyways it’s just a mute

Affirmative Action blues-for-white-people.

Hooray for crime!

I’m loving the idea of the transphobic Mitch McConnell voters of Kentucky realizing that their state’s only products are bourbon and sadness and we stopped buying bourbon.

You can’t make observational comedy about being a young and hungry comedian/writer when you’ve spent the last decade being wealthy and out-of-touch.

If he was still clever, he probably could’ve threaded the transphobia needle and either figured a way to make it right or made it so funny that enough people would enjoy it regardless. But now he’s cranky and spoiled by success so he’s just going to get angry, which is even less funny.

If you’re making a programming platform and the only debugging tool you provide to developers is console logging, you’re a monster.

yaml pipelines/actions I’m looking in your direction.

… I’d have two nickels - which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.

Except if you bought the game you still own a copy, they’re just not allowed to sell new copies.

It was already public to anybody willing to put in the work and extract the data.

Right? The collective dismissal of Mastodon from leftist influencers when the Muskening happened was eye opening.

Like, there’s a collaborative, volunteer-based platform right over there. You want mutual aid? Open-source is as mutual-aid as it gets.

But it’s nerd shit.

Wait, sources are supposed to be credible? I thought the joke was “yes this is an article in an actual* newspaper that is so absurd it seems like it could be satirical”

*for a certain definition of “actual”

Honestly I didn’t even scroll enough to realize there was a paywall I just saw the headline and that there was apparently an article below it and holy crap that headline is as Onion-y as you get.
