Looks more like a late term pregnant belly button to me

Agreed with all of this except for similarity to Deck (if the touchpads are squircles I will lose my mind), but my main concern is the shoulder buttons. Pressing shoulder buttons on the SC is literally manual labor and sounds like cracking a glow stick. Hopefully they’ll be more like the Deck or any other modern gamepad.

well this is my current music library all together in a WinAMP Playlist

TV folder is 6.66tb, Movie folder is 1.84tb, Music is 600gb

That’s cool, but why not just use Soulseek?

That and jokes about refusing to call it X

Clearly whoever wrote this has not tried torrenting popular content 🤨

I pirate. I don’t justify pirating. I just do it, because I want things and have the ability to get them for free, so I do that.

I think about this constantly. I’m constantly very upset about it. I’ve lost friends to cancer and freak accidents, and the loss of the internet is still genuinely the greatest tragedy in my life. The internet is, in large part, nothing more than a series of very customizable and semi-niche subscription packages and big box stores now. VR, particularly VR Chat, is close to/reminiscent of what it used to be like, so I cling to that, Lemmy, piracy, archive.org, and a few other things very tightly, but VR is starting to enter an era comparable to when cable internet started to become commonly available (and full of obnoxious unsupervised children), so it’s on its way out; not to mention the continued attempts to ruin the internet archive, which will be, not hyperbolically, the greatest loss to our species since the destruction of Alexandria.

We had it all, and it got bought out from under us, and there’s nothing to be done about it. People en masse don’t even know what we’re missing. I hate it. I’ll never get over the obsolescence of specialized forums in favor of social media, in particular.

That an omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent being created all of existence, knew everything that would ever happen and everything its creations would ever do, but still either doomed to damnation or lifted up to paradise each one of them as a result of them doing exactly what they’d been programmed to do

Net Neutrality is a dead concept and has been for years, there’s no walking it back

Raytracing is mostly fucked though, otherwise I’d be gaming exclusively on Linux as well. Aside from that though I’ve never had any issues with Nvidia on Linux.

🤘🤓👊

It’s not just that her behavior is harmful, it’s that she’s creating a whole false reality around it and controlling multiple narratives from every possible perspective. She created/co-opted a movement to go along with the Manson allegations, she moved across the country with her son to reinforce her narrative and used that as a way to hurt her ex husband, she used her power in the role of a child’s mother to create a world in which there was a monster they must run away from at all costs to where the kid couldn’t even play outside in Tennessee because of the monster in LA… And whenever she’s confronted with the idea that what she’s done is harmful to anybody she rewrites or reinforces the narrative that she’s doing it for the right reasons and deflects any responsibility or awareness that she’s done anything wrong (for example, when it looked like she was going to lose custody she suddenly decided it was in the child’s best interest to go live with the father in LA, the very city she ran from in order to protect the very child she was taking away from LA).

I’m not saying everybody who hurts somebody is “pathological” or “psychotic”. I’m saying ERW specifically exhibits a lack of capacity for empathy, a total lack of self awareness or awareness of the effects of her behavior, and has no concern or even acceptance of those effects as reality when confronted with them, and what she does and how she is is characteristic of ASPD.

Haha Malk as a first run? That had to be a treat.

It’s genuinely my favorite game of all time, I only found out about it this year and I’m on my fourth playthrough (only finished twice, abandoned my brujah and am saving it for later cuz I wanted to play Malkavian, now I’m on Nosferatu).

If you like WOD lore on its own, check out Coteries of New York, Shadows of New York, and Werewolf: The Apocalypse - Heart of The Forest. They’re incredible visual novels that I found captivating.

Redemption is a mess, but great if you love WOD/VTM and can deal with Doom ripoffs from that era, but it’s genuinely frustrating to play a lot of the time. I admit I only love it because I’m a huge nerd more dedicated to the lore than I am interested in actual gameplay.

Swansong is buggy and badly animated, but the story was very enjoyable for me, and I think a lot of the problems people have with it are more… Let’s say, things to complain about in a YouTube video, than issues actually worth being upset about as a fan.

The rest are basically text adventure novels, they’re great but it’s ultimately just reading a book in which you make choices about the direction (which Coteries and Shadows also are, but accompanied by absolutely gorgeous artwork and dynamic backgrounds).

Wraith: The Oblivion - Afterlife is incredible if you have VR 🤩

I’m using Connect because Jerboa ended up having some issues, what are some good foss lemmy apps?

No doubt, most people would hate this and I understand why, but I for one am just not one of those people.

I live in the northeast US and nothing depresses me like watching the days get longer as spring and summer approach. When winter comes, I sleep through all the daylight hours and only wake up once it’s dark, going to sleep as the sun comes up.

If I’m ever crazy rich, my dream is the have two houses, on either side of the world, so I can live where it’s perpetually night for six months, and fly to the other house as soon as it starts to switch, so I can live in perpetual night.

Winning is good, right? Yeah, but not if it’s too easy

That’s how you feel about it, though, not an objective thing everybody feels the same about. I absolutely cheat whenever I’m finding a game too difficult, and I assure you, I’m still enjoying the game. I don’t know what people get out of what I find to be the extremely infuriating act of repeatedly failing over and over until I finally get it right, but I have not ever felt the sense of accomplishment I’m told I should feel after finally beating something I struggled with. I feel angry and like I wasted a bunch of time when I could have been enjoying something more fun.

I’m just trying to have a good time, not compete with myself or prove that I can learn just the right way and right time to hit certain button combos or whatever.

Oh I just assumed every post you make has that cuz you’re a mod, and I didn’t notice till later; when I did notice, I didn’t take your phrasing re: “probably” as a demand but a suggestion. Either way, point taken, thanks for letting me have a discussion anyways.

🙄 it’s gross that you hold your view in such high objective regard that you think it’s your place to admonish me for not agreeing with you

Also I do know she’s dangerous, not least of all because she’s (as recorded in public court documents regarding custody of her child) actively discussing the details of an alleged series of assaults with her young child to the point where he’s terrified of entering LA to see his own father and spends time drawing scary pictures of him.
