  • The biggest problem with statistics is it doesn't illustrate the full picture - most men in that position don't even realise they're being abused, or refuse to come out and acknowledge it.

    Those men don't end up as apart of the statistic. So the statistic is more a indicator as to which gender is more likely to report their abuser, than which gender Is actually a victim.

    No statistic is going to be accurate, because it generally relies on the data being available, when often not all of it is.

  • Nah, I can't get the scan lines to look right with my cheap ass TV. Just basically updated the firmware and left everything on Default - I don't even change the upscaling settings as when I do it seems to make things all blurry

  • I just bought the JSAUX one - the one with the stand.

  • Man your daughter is lucky, I don't even have a dishwasher. I am the dishwasher. I used to have one, but then we moved house.

    In the end it doesn't matter how it's stacked so long as they come out clean - don't forget to fill the prewash section with powder, it helps immensely.

  • I have an OSSC, works wonderful with default settings for my PS2

  • Yeah, it's not really teaching kids not to use it, but it will be a great teacher for how to bypass internet blocks. Young people already lie about their age on platforms, I mean I did that when I was younger.

    It's only a few steps further to change DNS or VPN to an area that allows underage and doesn't require strict age verification.

  • We really need to get these guys out of the office. Why are we caring about impeaching presidents, we need to keep a close eye, catch them doing illegal shit and impeach the supreme court justices. Obviously hold off until the US has a president that can appoint good, fair judges - I don't believe Trump is capable of that, and Biden is at best borderline capable.

  • I mean if you don't have a kettle, it's a fine way of accomplishing the task.

    And if you don't have a microwave?

    a) what are you doing with your life? You're missing out!

    b) the stove top is the next option.

    If you don't have a stove top?

    a) ok, now you're most likely living rough. Sorry bro.

    b) light a campfire. If you also don't have a pot, go get one, or use some other heatproof container.

  • Huh, I didn't know that. Well that's fucked.

    I guess it makes some sense though - you'd want some form of backing if you're going against the establishment, so why not the enemy of the one you're going against?

    I already thought that none of them really deserved the prize, but I guess I probably shouldn't have been ranking them.

  • I swear this ruins the coffee

    Instead of reheating it, put a little ice in it and call it an iced coffee.

  • Wat.

    The only one who even remotely deserves the peace prize is Assange.

    The rest have all been sowing more division among lines than bringing people together. At least Wikileaks was invented to inform the public about shady shit going on in government.

    That said it's not necessarily been a good thing as wars can easily happen directly as a result of leaked documents. Every government has secrets. And sometimes rooting out corruption can be pretty damned violent.

    However Assange never meant to sow discord, only to inform people of problems and issues that were kept under wraps - the people deserved to know this information, even if it resulted in violent rioting.

  • Or the other capital, the one that billionaires all have?

  • Hmm by that last link it looks like sync isn't on the list of whitelisted sites. Granted, it's not a site, but an app. Seems like we need some kind of authorisation.

  • I doubt they have the sense of humour for that.

  • Factorio - but I tend to flip between both pads and sticks

  • The original post appears to have disappeared, but heres a post that was crosposted to !fediverselore@lemmy.ca

    (Not sure how to translate post permalinks to the instance agnostic form, and the cross post shows more detail of the original post on the web interface)

  • Too busy trying to figure out if they could do it, they didn't stop to think if they should do it.

  • I finally switched to AMD on my main desktop. Holy crap does it just work. I went straight for hyprland over my previous XFCE based desktop.

    I enjoy tinkering so having some programs that just work and some that need a little push is great for me. Gaming is pretty easy these days - games that straight up don't run I just don't buy, and protonDB or even the proton issue tracker and wineDB for tips and tricks.

    However with DEs I tend to set one up, and keep it how I set it up. I had XFCE for a total of 3 years with no changes. Hopefully I can do the same with Hyprland. I usually only try a new one when reinstalling Linux.

  • In a same but more drastic vein, you'd have to chop me up and shit In my corpse before I switch back to windows on my home PCs, it's bad enough I have to use win10 at work imo (I ain't installing win11 there untill I'm forced to)

  • Netflix should've realised this would be the end result. The moment you needed 5-6 different streaming platforms to watch all the movies and tv shows you want, was the moment it became easier and significantly cheaper to pirate the content.

    None of the big companies that decided to cash in ever stood a chance.
