Nah it’s doing alright.

Oh, benevolent Nintendo has graced us with the ability to play some more classic ROMS as long as we stay subscribed to their shitty online service.

I win a lot of bets by telling people I can do a full 360 without breaking eye contact. If you can balance while bending over backwards and spinning it’s not too hard.

Well, credit where it’s due I suppose.

Perhaps that explains why legislators keep finding time to meddle in people’s pants.

How about we just do away with unencrypted messaging all-together?

How’s fixing that power grid going, Texas?

Hopefully this means they’re working on the game? A Black Flag remaster is probably the only thing that would get me to play Assassin’s Creed again.

Yeah, I believe the motivation for moving to public fire departments wasn’t even a moral decision. Fire from uninsured burning buildings has an extremely high risk of spreading to an insured one, so putting out all fires minimizes risk to paid subscribers.

My takeaway is: The only way to get American systems to care about the poor is if the rich might receive some collateral damage.

You mean like imagining a voice speak out your thoughts? Thoughts are so much faster than speech, I feel like having to speak out all your thoughts would slow things down significantly.

The best tip I learned about reading faster is to stop narrating the words in your head, which puts a hard limit on your reading speed.

The fact that a licensed doctor has to make a case to an insurance company about what a patient needs is mind boggling to me. Every doctor I’ve talked to has told me that this is the worst part of their job.

Emergency services should never be privatized. Imagine firefighters having to ask some insurance company to cover the water they need to put your house out.

Never buy any hardware that doesn’t work offline.

Does this plugin work on mobile too? I’m looking to try out Obsidian and this sounds promising.

I used to use Tube Archivist, but once I discovered that Pinchflat can integrate with existing media libraries (Plex, Jellyfin), I switched to that.

These were/are both hosted using Docker on Linux servers, accessed via the WebUI.

It’s a lot more work to set up, but having videos just show up in my Plex library with all the metadata is worth it.

ngl I actually thought the official intro was some kind of fan edit.

I’ve always suspected people conflate communism with dictators, which is the main cause of distrust for anything anti-capitalism.

Are there any examples of a nation successfully transitioning out of capitalism without ending up in a dictatorship? I want to believe it can be done, but I have no idea what it would look like.

Most mainstream distros are no harder to learn than Windows or macOS. People (especially as they get older) are just averse to relearning how to do things.

5 money, 2 problems.

I call this “physical memory”. If you struggle with remembering things, you can organize your space to augment your memory. It’s VERY effective and is often simpler/easier than writing things down.

Also, if you are living with someone who does this, for the love of god, do not move their stuff without asking. You are basically erasing part of their memory and setting them up for failure.

Just started Celeste. It’s hard because I suck at platformers but I love the music + art so much.
