  • I know this isn't what you're looking for, but I have excellent recommendations for people with RSI and / or Carpal Tunnel.

    For a while, I daily-drove a Logitech MX vertical mouse and that was wonderful. It's responsive, comfortable and really accurate, and helped my RSI in my mouse hand.

    Eventually, the RSI started hurting my other wrist (my job has a really sucky keyboard) so I moved on to the Kensington Slimblade trackball mouse. That mouse is KILLER for reducing and / or eliminating RSI. It's perfect for me, because I was able to switch my main mouse hand with little issue and I've been switching them up occasionally ever since depending on which wrist hurts worse. It's not a forever solution, but it's an excellent temporary one. I really can't say enough good about the Kensington (that being said, you aren't gonna be able to game on it hahaha)

  • Not shocked about the headaches (happens with most of the headsets), but I'm a little sad about the weight issues. That sucks - I'm an Android user but I was hoping Apple doing this would lead to some Android development in the same space

  • Notable from the article: the option is disabled for mouse-and-keyboard players so this is to target tools meant to force it back on for an edge.

  • GeminiTay streamed Stardew Valley and this was one of her main complaints. The menu never lets you adjust the sound and the game starts with an unskippable scene.

  • Bet, I completely forgot about Searxng. Pretty much a perfect fit (too bad it's not as environmentally conscious necessarily, but eh, not like it's bad!)

    Thank you!

  • Hearing this sort of stuff before is why I just chose to use WSL with my Lenovo Legion. Especially since mine has an RTX card in it

  • Lemmy is...

  • Make an offensive joke in the right spot and you'll get your entire instance defederated

  • To be fair about the jet bridge thing, I've definitely been at some pretty major airports (read "SeaTac") and gone out onto the concrete to board a small plane. The jet bridge is not a deal breaker

  • Emphasis... /s

    I never claimed to be a writer haha

  • I have two: YouTube Premium and Disney+

    My reasoning:

    YT Premium comes with my Google One subscription which gives 100GB storage on their cloud and YT Music (which is, in my opinion, better than Spotify - there are better mixes and Spotify doesn't do great with Japanese songs, which I listen to a lot)

    Disney+ because my gf got me into Marvel and I watch the new series' (plus Star Wars and classics from my youth like Kim Possible)

    For other content (like the Office), I just use Stremio with Torrentio. Disney+ is still worth it because it's a pain to set up the HDMI every time and I'm peak lazy

    Not a streaming service, but if you have a partner you should really look into Regal Unlimited / AMC's variant of that. Movie dates are great and there are always enough new movies to keep you going, plus you can sneak snacks in super easily in a bag (even just a full bag of popcorn lol). You can watch and rewatch like 10 movies in the theater a month if you want lol, plus it gets you out-of-the-house. It's not for everyone, but worth it for us!!

  • This is (sadly) the way. Use a VPN to get a better deal in another country as well for extra bang for the buck

  • I remember MKBHD made a comment about the snow possibly being an issue opening the doors as well. Hoping these things were actually tested in super cold conditions

  • It's "Workbench > Editor: Wrap Tabs" or, if you don't use the UI, it's workbench.editor.wrapTabs and it's a bool

  • Going with a lesser known trick for software engineers: for VS Code, there is a setting to make your tabs go on top of each other rather than going off the screen. So then, you don't have to scroll for the tab you want and you can instead just visually look.

    Also, yeah, yeah, I know about Neovim, and yes, I've tried it many times. It's just not a worthwhile tradeoff for me.

  • I started a decade ago on Ubuntu for an after-school cybersecurity club. From there, I eventually tried Mint and then Lubuntu and Kinoite. I'm now using Debian in WSL.

  • API refugee here as well! I'm on Mbin, but I'm in the Fediverse to stay!!
