I would bet that most actually happen within close vicinity to a toilet or are at least submitted from one.

The Lifeline series from 3 minute games is excellent if you like a twist on choose your own adventure games.

It’s the other way around. Nintendo is a law firm with a game dev hobby.

The lack of backwards comparability is because of the large difference in architecture.

The PS2 was a128 bit custom processor, the PS3 had PS2 hardware in the original fat versions to achieve backwards compatibility, it was dropped to reduce the price.

The PS3 was a 64 bit (I think) custom PowerPC processor.

With the PS4 Sony switched to x86_64 processors making the console essentially a PC with bespoke custom hardware. The PS5 is the same but better speced components as the tech moved on. That’s why the PS4 & 5 are compatible, they are essentially using the same architecture.

Microsoft is a similar story but they went all in on emulation of their old consoles which is why only certain games are allowed, they only allow the ones tested to work with the emulator.

If you really want to learn something, go learn it. What’s stopping you?

Work.

If I don’t work full time I can’t afford to house or feed myself.

Work wipes me out mentally leaving me no mental bandwidth to spend what precious little time I have left to go learn, even if I want to.

I would love to be able to dedicate time to learning like I did when I was at university but even with the government funding available to me I would have to upend my life.

I do spend time doing learning around things that interest me but it is depressing how little bandwidth work leaves for me to do that.

Have you tried the shortcuts for the other side of the keyboard

Ctrl + insert = copy

Shift + insert = paste

Shift + delete = cut

I find them much easier to use than the traditional shortcuts.

This actually already exists but it’s quite pricey: https://www.eightsleep.com/uk/pod-cover/

It ended in 2012 as predicted, we’re all just living on the still warm corpse and most people haven’t realised yet.

So the main part of a computer that controls everything has a specific set of things it can do. Imagine that each of these things can be triggered by a button on a control panel.

Every company making this part of the computer has their own set of things and layout for the buttons to trigger them and you have to pay them money to learn what the things are and how to press the buttons.

RISC-V offers a set of things and a button layout that the community can freely see and use.

In this example a computer program is just the list of instructions saying which buttons to press in what order.

Johnny Cash’s version of Hurt

This is starting to feel like their way of blocking Fallout London from releasing indefinitely.

You have forever changed the way I communicate from this day on.

Niagara launcher

It’s a minimalistic approach, you get one widget at the top of the screen and then a handful of favourite apps.

There’s no app draw instead you scroll an alphabet on either side of the screen to find apps.

Works really well if you have a lot of apps and you want to find them by name.

In the paid version you can have multiple widgets but they stack in the one spot and you have to swipe between them.

It’s perfect if you want an uncluttered launcher.

In addition to features for migrating communities and accounts I think the ability to set up a special type of instance that just archives everything from all the instances it’s federated to would be a huge benefit.

Something along the lines of an instance that doesn’t allow new content to be created, only consumed. This way if an instance were to permanently close we could migrate it’s communities to other instances from the archive.

This could also extend to migration of lost accounts, though ensuring the original account holder is the one making a request could become a nightmare of an overhead. The situation could be improved though if lemmy got some sort of feature for linking accounts across multiple instances.

My wife added ABBA’s Dancing Queen to our driving playlist for our first long trip. Silence into a deafening piano slide half way through the drive was an interesting way to nearly die from shock.

Honestly with the way the world is at the moment I think they should have moved it forwards again this year.

Things aren’t the same as last year they’re getting worse and that should have been reflected.

My car seems to be from the transition period, it has a lighter but no ash trays in the front, only in the back.

I guess it’s fine for the kids to smoke while watching the in built DVD players but not the driver and front passenger /s

I have never once missed it. I’ve already switched to Bluetooth for my headphones and car. At home I cast to the hifi or Bluetooth speaker.

I got an adaptor to let me use cabled headphones when I need to and I’ve used it twice, once was to test it even worked.

The use case just doesn’t exist for me anymore.
