BIG fux

100dB high-pitched guitars, relentless double bass and shrieking vocals at a black metal show: total bliss.

My kids when they yell out of excitement: unbearable.

With good ear protection though, or the pain will remain.

Still better than the morons who took their baby to a Taylor Swift concert…

Proton is WINE, it’s a fork maintained by Valve and Codeweaver with DXVK (Direct X -> Vulkan) on top. If you use Steam for gaming it will set up proton automatically for you.

And yes macOS is a step up from Windows, but it’s still a walled garden. Want to develop an iOS app? You must buy a Mac, you must buy a developer license, you must use the worst IDE ever created, and you must distribute it through the app store (except in Europe in theory, but they worked hard to make the experience so miserable that almost no one bothers).

From time to time I’ll still look at their steam page during sales, because I’d like to play a blockbuster single player FPS where I can mindlessly mow down bad guys, with good story and production value.

But the price point and reviews always turn me off… Do you have a good alternative to recommend?

Forbidding women from participating in a “fun” event doesn’t seem very benevolent to me.

It’s literally impossible to use the internet (or even computers?) without patronizing American companies, at least indirectly.

I’d argue that if the app is not monetized, you deserve whatever the dev feels like giving you, for free.

Also, these ding-a-lings keep confusing rather mid corporate news outlets as “liberal”.

This is how you move the Overton window.

Everything after has been a crappy cover.

Even Eliott Smith’s version?

Why bother switching then?

Plex sucks but jellyseer, the *arr stack and jellyfin are all open source and entirely free. Together they provide an experience almost as straightforward as any commercial streaming platform: find a media on jellyseerr and request it with a single click. A few minutes* later the media is available in Jellyfin, and you can watch it on your computer, smartphone, smart TV, …

*with Usenet and a good internet connection

I am a whiner, and I keep whining and whining until I win

I know, I meant that although I’m interested in the tech I’ve barely tried it.

Well I do want this, augmented/virtual reality is exactly the kind of shit I dreamt about as a kid during the 90’s, and having a huge screen available anywhere I go is pretty fucking cool.

But yeah, I used a VR headset exactly once for like 5 minutes, and there’s no way in hell I’d buy one from meta or apple. If Valve releases good XR/AR glasses I might consider it.

They have quotas to fill. Makes sense for them to pick these low-hanging fruits.

“This is for Gaza, you fucking 4 year-old with cancer!”

Same plan but 10€ since I’m also a fiber subscriber.

Refuses to elaborate
