Hey Lemmy! What is your most beloved and hated British slang?

  • I’d think you mispronounced boofing which involves taking drugs with your butt.

    • Should naming your children stupid names be illegal?

    • Do you still use Facebook?

  • It was cool about 20 years ago!

    • Straight people, do you know what the Grindr notification sound is?

    Jump

  • No- is it like a grunt?

    • Are PC handhelds like Steam Deck really competitors for Switch 2?

    Jump

  • I really doubt switch 2 games will emulate at all or well for quite some time.

    I get the money argument. In that case, get the one that does more for you now now, and save up for the other one later. You don’t need them all at once.

    I waited a year before getting the first switch, and almost 2 years for a ps4. I think I waited at least a year for all the other PlayStations too save the 5.

    Getting something at launch isn’t all that great- bugs, limited games, max prices, etc… a year or so later and you get bundles and deals and lots of game choices.

    I don’t have a deck- but a few of my friends do and I’ve played with it a bit- it’s great and I want one at some point, but I can wait for #2 to come out and then go on sale before I dive in.

  • It’s great!

    • US cuts may affect FOSS projects funding (F-Droid, Tor, Let's Encrypt, TailsOS)

  • He’d cut his own dick off if it owned some libs.

    • New 'DRAM+' memory designed to provide DRAM performance with SSD-like storage capabilities, uses FeRAM tech

    Jump

  • Oooh! Two “disruptive”’s and a “game changer”!

    • Are PC handhelds like Steam Deck really competitors for Switch 2?

    Jump

  • I really truly don’t think so. While there is some overlap, I would never give my 5 yo a steam deck and tell them to just figure it out. And on a steam deck, I’d be really sad to not have any Mario kart, Zelda, etc…

    I don’t see the problem with having both- they fill different niches.

    • The President of the United States does not have the authority to unilaterally impose tariffs

    Jump

  • And yet, he does this shit anyway.

    • Which actor did not have a single bad film?

    Jump

  • No that movie was great.

    • What is anti-propaganda?

    Jump

  • Wouldn’t it just be facts?

    • How to get rid of Whatsapp?

    Jump

  • They’re probably the ones trump is deporting at the moment, the irony. I’ve been using signal with family to accommodate the stubborn android users, and it’s been fairly close to parity with Apple messages in terms of features and use. Good compromise IMO.

    • Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do?

    Jump

  • My understanding is that only some games are a “key in a cartridge” and they are able to be resold second hand.

    • Do you like the taste of vinegar? Does anyone?

    Jump

  • I love it. And there are so many kinds! I keep a bunch on hand for different things: red wine, white, rice wine, apple cider, balsamic, malt, etc… they all taste quite different.

    • Can someone explain to me how to use the Feidverse?

    Jump

  • Voyager for iOS is a pretty great client!

  • “Major motion picture” is a term thrown out there for big studio productions as opposed to made for tv or home movies.

  • You’re not wrong- but when the change happened, it seemed to be around the time HDD manufacturers started taking flak for selling high capacity drives that didn’t match formatted capacity by larger and larger margins. OS level files sizes were always 2^n - it was a real PitA when Apple switched to base 10 for gui size reporting. I believe terminal utilities still measure file size in 1024 bytes.

  • Yeah but that’s a BS measure they created decades later. We never used MiB in the 80s and 90s.

    To clarify, it was always powers of 2 in the old days.
