  • I’m behind, how did Minecraft get enshittified? I catch the occasional stream and the game looks like it’s on another level from when I last played in like 2012

  • I’m not saying you’re wrong, this is just a very American marketing approach. Like, why would a tech company want to grow out of the tech sector? Oh right, never ending quarter over quarter growth…

    The wild part to me is that the average person doesn’t even know what IO means in a tech context, but enough tech companies have used .io for normies to be conditioned into associating .io with tech

  • Not all TLDs are, just the ccTLDs. The .io domain was never intended to be such a popular one, but tech bros were like “zomg io! That’s like input/output!! So techie!!!” Meanwhile, .tech exists and is not country-specific but is far less popular for some reason.

  • Country music from before it became hick rap. Songs that told cool stories instead of being about nationalism and pickup trucks

  • That’s the vast majority of Lemmy…

  • Yeah, being from Russia is a lot different from being associated with the Russian government. If the maintainers are in the latter, then yeah fuck em, but if they live in Russia with no realistic way of getting out and they’re just trying to live a normal life removed from the bullshit and write code as an intellectual escape? And you take that away from them? Precisely how you radicalize people

  • Google your city name and “maker space” to see if there’s any near you. Not only does my local library district have them, there’s another local option with a monthly membership fee. They have large equipment like laser engravers, CNCs, drill presses, etc. They usually also have small stuff like drills that you can check out and bring home. Also a great way to meet other makers in your community

  • Permanently Deleted

    Jump
  • The height of the grass along the wall of the house 😳

  • Curious as to what the union’s demands are. It’s my impression that Trader Joe’s treats their employees relatively well. I have multiple friends who work for them and are paid a living wage (in the Bay Area of all places) for working reasonable hours.

  • Ah, got me with the ol’ Uno reverse card. It can be hard to tell with the tankies on Lemmy with zero senses of humor, taking every opportunity for diatribe, even obvious jokes

  • I was thinking about whether I should put an /s in my comment when I wrote it, and I thought “nah, it’s pretty clear that it’s a joke”. You have proved me wrong. I promise to do better next time

  • This is what we get for diverging from God’s word (ASCII)

  • Trying to think of more ways they could make this absurdly annoying:

    • If the alarm has been playing for too long, start playing the low health sound effect from Zelda
    • If you have one minute left before you need to leave for school/work, play the "almost out of time" jingle from Super Mario
    • Navi
  • I've been enjoying the flow state I get into while playing Space Marine II. It is a mix of melee and shooting, but the melee aspect is very simple - no memorizing combos and the timing of parries is fairly forgiving. It's all very satisfying once you get the feel for it. Cinematics are skippable, you can change the difficulty level to your liking, and you can set your lobbies to private if you don't wanna play with others

  • Idk about bernedoodles specifically, but -doodle crosses seem to be all the rage in the US right now

  • Did you happen to look up while standing in the TSA line? Surprise, there’s cameras there too. Sure, they’re not getting a straight-on shot of your face, but still getting a clear shot nonetheless. There’s no winning in this situation sadly
