I would like to thank admins and moderators of lemm.ee for bringing up this amazing community. I was one of many reddit refugees and got lucky to find lemm.ee. I’m not really active user, more of a lurker, and lemm.ee let me explore all the (im)possible instances I could think of. Can’t explain the feeling, I’ll miss it probably more than I admit, cause it left an impression in me that people can do good things from their hearts.

Was thinking of going to lemmy.zip like a lot of other folks, but will probably try piefed and/or mbin first. Main reason being the ideological opinions of lemmy developers…

Once again: thank you for all your hard work, I really do appreciate it, even though I was just a peasant lurker. Thank you a good luck in your future endeavors.

Shocking new discovery: water is wet!

Up 'til 2022 or 2023 company I work for used Pentium 4 at POS PCs running ancient openSUSE. They would be still in service if it weren’t for leaking/swollen caps on most motherboards. Pure power wasn’t really there, but it was plenty enough to run that checkout software…

You press F4 (I believe) in Dolphin and it spawns “tab” of Konsole pointing to current location inside Dolphin window.

I use what’s built in KDE - Spectacle: https://github.com/KDE/spectacle

Does everything I need.

You can send to different machines then your kde connect one with localsend, e.g. wife’s PC, kid’s tablet, brother’s phone, etc.

I tried logseq to manage my notes at work and it just didn’t click with me.

I ended up using QOwnNotes https://www.qownnotes.org/ which might be not as polished, but it is very easy to start with. I don’t need nor want cloud/sync, and since this ones notes are plain .md files in a folder, it’s easy to back up (or edit) externally when needed. I like it for what it does.

I know Strawberry, because I use it too. It’s a music player, forked from Clementine years ago. I find it the best for my use case, as it can handle library by tags, do folder view for separate locations, do tag editing, lyrics and art download, etc. Can highly recommend!

Try tenacity, it’s audacity fork, available on flathub. I have good experience with it.

Good, body shaming is bad!

Similar. Although I happily leave it at my wishlist and buy it once it’s diacounted like $15… I still have way more games to play than I can manage.

Sharing files and clipboard is a nice feature. Media control might be pretty neat in some scenarios (party jukebox, htpc).

So why do they name it almost exactly like Bud Light?

That’s even worse part of it. Why tf does game like GTA6 even need marketing? Everyone and their dog will talk about it anyway…

It’s really absurd where budget of those games went to… Big corpo gaming is wasteful as fuck.

Fuck Nintendo.

Edit: I’d be somehow interested in switch-like console and Nintendo exclusive games, but definitely not bundled with horse shit like that.

I can’t say one or the other globally. It is very much game dependent for me. There are open worlds that are just wonderful and it’s joy to play them and there are others whose world is empty and useless and that sucks.

One of the best executed open wolrds is old Gothic IMO (Gothic 2 is great too). Sure it’s probably ugly and bland by today standards, but the world is absolutely amazing. It’s completely open from the start, but player is so weak it is probably good idea to play semi-linear at the beginning. But nothing (except for tough enemies) stops you from exploring whatever and whenever you want. And there are tons and tons of things to explore. Hidden cave with loot? Shortcut connecting two roads? Place with very rare alchemy ingredient at the end of narrow valley? Shadowbeast lair? There is so much love put in there I still have cravings to play it even though it’s like quarter of century old game… Quite the same can be said for e.g. Morrowind which is another absolute gem from early 2000s.

But there are also open world games where open world either simply sucks or serves no purpose. I’d have to think about which games fall in there, because once it’s like this I tend to uninstall and forget the title…

Ekke ekke p-tang zoom boing!

Fart of the eel

You mean consistent like: “Ah, you still on windows ‘add version here’? Too bad, user experience/security/consistency/modern standards are our top priority so you have to have windows ‘add version here +1’ to be able to run our awesome app xyz”… Much better, right?
