sake

It's been on my backlog for AGES, since it came out. Maybe it's about time I finally dive in.

I hate to say it, but the only thing that can explain this kind of sudden jump is error in data.

There are situations where lesser evil is the best available choice, but this isn't one of them.

It's definitely different environment so there are lots of small things that you have to get used to.

In all my years of using Linux I have used about every major distro there is. I still stick to the old and tried advice, if people want hassle free distro, they should use Ubuntu.

I'm not happy with snaps but that's a minor flaw. It still provides the best out of the box experience for people who just want stuff to work.

Dual-boot can be set up at the installation process automatically. Just make sure you have enough space on your NTFS for the installer to make it smaller and stay alert that you pick the correct partitioning scheme on installation "install Ubuntu alongside Windows". Steam, Nvidia drivers all just work on Ubuntu. No need to tinker.

It's funny that reddit basically just blocked us from contributing. You can still use RIF to lurk.

Sometimes I forget and try to comment or upvote. After quick disappointment I actually feel relieved that I can't interact with reddit. It's weird.

• Kraken Academy!!
• Merchant of the Skies
• Ozymandias
• Roadwarden
• Shotgun King: The Final Checkmate
• Temtem
• The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition
• Yakuza 4 Remastered

Actually pretty good value. Might actually pick it up even though I'm not sure if I ever have enough time to play any of these. As a kid I had no money to buy games and as adult I have no time to play games.

Rip RIF, you served us well all these years.

I'm sort of motivated by laziness. When RIF stopped working I thought oh well, guess I just use Lemmy on my phone.

When old.reddit stops working some day I do the same for the desktop. Reddit is literally driving me away. How badly can they fuck up? The modern reddit they are trying to push on us is not the reddit I signed up for 11 years ago.

At fundamental level it's capitalism, but with some social policies that make it more friendly to humans.

The crucial thing that defines capitalism is profit. Basically as long as there are leeches that take advantage of the economic upperhand they have to leech of workers income, it's capitalism. This can be frankly pretty complicated and theoretical when you really go into the definitions of work, value, profit, etc. and what it means in practice.

Marxists sometimes make these ideas simpler than they are, and that's how we end up with solutions that don't work in practice. They tend to only focus on the material conditions, power and exploitation, but we need theories based on increased psychological understanding to find novel solutions imo.

RIF is now working for me for some reason. Did they already cave in? Anyone else?

First thing I experienced was disappointment surprisingly.

Same. History has shown me that it's better to skip if you don't want to play it immediately. It will come to sale again with steeper discount.

Alright that's decent enough price. While you can get 3rd party Dock pretty cheap, counting in shipping and the power adapter, it rounds up to 70€ for me. For 10€ more I can get first party support, that's actually competitive value.

Would work better if it's both way. Bot bridging all the content from reddit to lemmy and vice versa. It might work for some smaller subreddits at least.
