  • "Got what I want, I'm gonna bounce"

  • Yeah its a British northern thing.

  • The unexamined life is not worth living.

  • Did you see what oxygen did to the Hindenburg? I'm not going to let that happen to me. Say no to big oxygen!

  • Uncovered all sorts of shit I wasn't expecting.

  • Doesn't it specifically say on a new incognito tab that this doesn't protect against sites or service providers from gathering information....and only stops you from storing local information (history, cookies, etc)? Do people actually think that incognito is adding privacy protection?

  • Use alternativeto.net .... not necessarily for just Windows programs alternatives; but it is also great for looking at popular utilities for any task in Linux.

    Some programs I use a lot were not suggested anywhere else (e.g. Pluma as a basic text editor and Pinta for basic image editing).

  • America: I can't believe you would say something so fucking stupid.

  • What device are you going to use it on? I'll presume Android is most likely.

    Best app for FOSS in my opinion is Read You (on f-droid), but this doesnt allow blacklisting words.

    Best for easy setup + setting up filters is Pluma (free on Play store). Once you're in it, you press + to add content and can search for whatever you want.

    Most sites support RSS and if you candidate find it from within the app then you can go get the RSS link from the webpage.... But if you're just getting into it then try what I've suggested above first and take it from there.

  • I did the same and would absolutely recommend this.

    Don't look for news on social media (best to not be on social media if that's possible). Get news and content via RSS and get an app that allows you to blacklist keywords.

  • Steam Deck + Retroid Pocket 4 Pro for me. The RP4 is a recent addition and it blows my kind how capable this cheap tiny thing is.

  • Permanently Deleted

  • I don't give a shit about waterproofing. I want more battery, repairability and a headphone socket.

    But that's not what normies want. So fuck me.

  • Put OP on monitoring CCTV.

  • Only my family, friends and work. But I'm working on cutting them out of my life.

  • There was a big uproar amongst normies when the WhatsApp TOS changed......but people forget quickly and prefer convenience. That was our one chance to convert everyone over.

  • I'm forced to use WhatsApp chat so I keep it installed begrudgingly. But who the fuck is using WhatsApp stories?

  • But the point isn't to see everything. The feeling of FOMO is what's seems to drive people to madness. For a game that's been developed for over a decade with multiple cycles of content release every year; I'm not surprised that people don't get a chance to see everything. I see that as a positive and not a negative.

    Other games do similar things. I play a lot of Dead Cells and can't get beyond 4BC. Most people will never get to end game content to see all bosses or unlock all items. Who cares. As long as the game is fun.

    My first play through of PoE was with no guides. I made it up as I went along. Had a terrible "build". I enjoyed taking weeks to get through the campaign slowly and reading all the lore. Every league I played, I got deeper and deeper into the content....learning to make tons of currency, getting a character to lvl 100, etc. It has been great playing it off and on. The game is fun without experiencing "everything". But if I ever engaged with the online community, all I would hear is "I've played 3000 hours and this game is shit".

  • Path of Exile

    Good fun game, but online communities are committing to min/max the fun out out of it. I like blowing up monsters, I don't care about optimising my chaos-per-hour rate.

  • Searching/surfing YouTube is like searching/surfing Imgur. It's a site for content hosting so you can link from other places. You have to go to online communities to find links to good videos.

    There are good channels that are worth subscribing to, but going to YouTube directly is like trudging though a swamp.
