Blast my body out into the ocean and let the fish eat me

Or, I like the idea of becoming a tree, where they put you in a bag beneath a tree and plant it so the roots will absorb.. whatever is left that they possibly can, I think that's the coolest (imo) way to go and would like to somehow become a tree.. don't want to be reincarnated as an animal, nature is brutal.

Cat maybe...

I have a bevy of prior drug experience and still consider the way excess caffeine makes me feel to be what my idea of a mild high is.

The mind and body work hand in hand. Change one and the other feels it!

One account to rule them all

I'd forgotten about that guy! Loved him and can honestly say he's one genuine thing about that place that I miss.

That's actually great for the price, i7 12, 32Gb ram, 1Tb M2, etc? Not bad at all! Would even be a great little gaming setup

I actually really appreciate that and will tell him! He's a very interesting friend tbh glad to hear he's loved!

I will do that and am sure he'll react some type of way, will update asap

Awesome idea! Signed up immediately but am curious about the payment options, I'm seeing options to sign up for an instance of mastodon, or 10 accounts, or one account with the single account being $9 yearly?

My question is, will I have to pay every single month for every account that I own?

For example, if I have an account on mastodon, lemmy.world, lemmy.ml, lemmy.nsfw, beehaw etc. Would I have to pay for all of them individually?

I'm probably missing something! It's just that while $9 a year for a single mastodon account is cheap @ less than $1 a month, I'd like to have every possible instance available for this one account which under my understanding would cost me hundreds every year?

It's a great idea, don't think I'm shitting on it in any way! Just asking questions bc I'd like to use it just not sure I want to pay for every individual instance I join

This is stupid

Yess.. teach me about the federation.. my Lord

Almost a dozen dozens!

Can't lie I still love tropic thunder sooo much today. I get that the climate has shifted and understand why but I still feel like we've lost something valuable in the process. Robert Downey in black face was.. wrong but at the same time felt perfect. It wasn't the black face that got me, he really could've been dressed as anyone and I would've laughed the same. What got me was his inability to break script, even when not filming. Can't remember the full context but the scene in which someone is calling him out on not breaking character and, in iirc the only time he breaks character throughout the movie he breaks down and says "I don't break character until after the DVD commentary!" Idk why but it broke me and I can't help but chuckle about it today.

That movie is full of "no-no's", sure, but so was Chappelle's show, Sanford and son etc.

Hmm.. but what if I'm on the federated instance in theory? Assuming I'd see it then sorry I'm still figuring this place out

I miss back in the day. Used to be able to store all my stuff on CD-R's, hell before that it was floppy's. File sizes have grown exponentially, programs/apps all have huge sizes. Pictures and videos is my biggest issue, but I'd also like to backup games that I've downloaded so I don't have to download again. I can backup old games no problem, but modern games? Many are 100+ GB now, and in time they all will be and 200GB will be the standard, then a terabyte and more.

Anyway, until I can afford and find a 20 tb sad I'm just using DVDs for everything but games and large programs. Quick to write, solid, tangeable etc. If I could afford a bunch of flash drives I'd probably do that instead.

If you can afford it and it's important data I'd ofc recommend backing up to a large SSD, THEN to a cloud (or more) as a failsafe.. then also using flash drives/DVD's etc. For an additional failsafe for the super important stuff.

I mean, if it's important backup all you can.

I've got priceless memories in my Google photos library but ofc Google removed being able to view them on my native photos app and download easily.. so instead I either have to backup and save ALL of it in Google drive or download specific albums.. idk so I wouldn't personally recommend google as a true backup as you never know, personally I'd just use DVDs and flash drives for that stuff

It's still getting it's bearings but should be g2g in a little bit

There's a mechanic advice community that's not memey..

Hey I have a question because this actually interests me and contrary to popular opinionn on this sub I think this idea would work!

Since migrating I've found myself wanting to search Reddit dozens of times for content I needed but was too damned pissed to provide them with any traffic.

My input is: it seems that the main beef of most people here is the lack of engagement, making Lemmy seem like a ghost town. Would we be able to comment on the mirrored posts (on Lemmy) thus solving the engagement problem? I'm no techspert but feel like allowing comments underneath mirrored posts for Lemmy, not Reddit would be possible I guess? Or at least some equivalent?

I'm also interested in this because I have my own little feed I'm setting up, and it would be cool to be able to add more content very easily. I don't really want it to be from Reddit but, just anything different I could do would be nice, and hey if there is something important I'd like to add from there or even just to take notes that'd be nice so I for one would use it.

A bridge that allows us access to reddits content, driving up their traffic (and server costs) - the whole reason for the API changes WHILE refusing them any engagement? Sounds like a win-win to me.

Idk about avocados but try boost and maybe your app won't be bugging so much

I'm sorry, I've been confusing myself in the comments haha thought you were advising about how to get the windows version to run better now realize we're on Linux sorry!

So lutris is for running windows .exe on Linux! Good to know, and no I'm not dual booting yet just windows 11 just considering install Ubuntu/fedora or something to dual boot with and running cyberpunk from it instead of win11, or just going back to win10 and seeing if it helps
