It's a screen cap from Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster, which was the movie for Monsterdon last Sunday. It's significance is that 1) it is an impressively bad movie, and 2) this character held this grin on his face for like 15 seconds, which was funny.
For those who aren't familiar with this game, it's in the same genre as Mount & Blade, but with spaceships instead of horses. Or Sid Meier's Pirates, but spaceships instead of pirate ships. Definitely one of those "I'll just make one more quick cargo run..." type of games.
This update looks great. In additional to new strategy options through diplomacy, they're also tweaking how ships handle.
Sometimes I hear about other people's storage setups and I think, "that is overkill, no one really needs that." According to this thread, I am quite mistaken about that. 😳
I have 2,057 songs, taking up a measly 51 GB, on a Funkwhale server. No movies or TV shows.
That should get a little larger soon. I have about 100 vinyl records that I want to make digital rips of.
There's a used bookstore near me that has the oldest cash register I've ever seen. It has keys like a typewriter, and makes the most satisfying "ka-ching" sound when it opens. They always use it to add up your purchase and print a receipt, even when you're paying with a credit card. But I always try to bring cash when I'm there so that the drawer gets used. (And also, y'know, screw credit card companies taking their cut.)
I know that's not really "in widespread use" today, which is probably what the question meant, but that was the first thing that came to mind for me.
I didn't have the patience for RPGs like that when they were originally out (and I was a little kid), but I've also been enjoying them on my Anbernic device. For me it's been Phantasy Star IV.
Total War: Shogun 2. No idea why I decided to reinstall it out of the blue; just wanted to pick it up again after not playing for a long-ass time. I played it a bit when it first came out, but just didn't really get into it. I'm seeing if it's playable on the couch with a Steam controller now. Verdict so far: maaaaybe.
One hand pretty much exclusively. I almost always use my right; I might occasionally use my left if I'm needing to hold a key with my right hand, but I that doesn't come up often. It really just fit on the desk better to put it in the middle. At first I thought it might be more ergonomic that way, but I don't think it really makes a difference.
(This is OP, by the way, for some reason your comment didn't get forwarded to my Mastodon account that I originally posted from.)
I have a soft spot for Gentoo, even though I haven't used it in years. It was one of my first experiences with Linux, since it was installed in one of the computer labs in college. I just remember that the windows had this physics jiggle effect when you dragged them around. I was so surprised that Linux had a more "fun" aesthetic than Mac or Windows did.
Conservatives have a hard time understanding satire (article about this), let's make sure progressives don't become the same way. (I know, it's hard, especially when a lot of conservative opinions are indistinguishable from satire.)
I downvote if it looks like they are posting in bad faith. I'll upvote some comments that I disagree with if the poster was trying to contribute to the conversation -- I usually do that to offset the fact that they've been downvoted a bunch already.
Many of the communities I'm in are fairly small, so I upvote almost every comment that I read. I figure it lets someone know that someone else read what they wrote, and I think that's what a lot of us are here for.
In addition to what you mentioned, another really annoying thing about Youtube's search is that it sometimes gives totally different results from one minute to the next. You can search for something, then type those exact same words just a few seconds later, and you get a completely different list of videos. So if you ever do get a list of good results, you need to leave that browser tab alone and open a new one to keep those results "safe."
Reddit is the first one that comes to mind for me, too. It was always easier to use a search engine like Google or DuckDuckGo and do thing I'm looking for site:reddit.com instead of actually using Reddit's search feature.
