And the Windows version through Wine will still run better than the native… As is tradition.

What else are you going to use your RAM for if not generating advertisement revenue for shareholders.
15 is affordable by me. Highest I’ve seen is $33 for a 4 pack. Might as well just go out to a bar at that point.
Some of them feel like they are almost worth the expense. Founders makes some amazing beer of all varieties, and the Goose Island Bourbon County stouts are all phenomenal… But then there’s shit like Southern Tier trying to sell yet another stupid twist on a flavor nobody has ever done for $5 more than last year’s variety. It’s just pointless to engage in it now. Better off enjoying cheap wine.
The culture around beer shifted from cheap low alcohol content drinks with little variation, to more expensive high alcohol content drinks with a ton of variation. Then, as with anything that hits a “trend”, the market tries to capitalize on it beyond what demand actually cares to express, and prices go so far through the roof that nobody gives a shit anymore.
Nobody that was already drinking cares about the health issues (or at least they didn’t just suddenly change out of the blue). They just got a taste for something that gradually got priced out. If you got your taste for beers on fancy 10%ABV stouts that now cost $7 a can/bottle, you aren’t going to just buy whatever is now in your price range. You just stop buying beer, and get other shit.
Sestrento BestOfLemmy•Guinea Pig becomes prime content creator on lemmy for a day.English9·5 months agoI doubt it more due to the frequency of guinea pig shits. Unless they’ve been genetically modified since my childhood to poop less often, I could not envision a world where that keyboard does not have crap under the keys after the first response.
Sestrento pics•A photo of Marc Andreessen, billionaire Project 2025 architect, known on Epstein Island as "The Human Buttplug"11·6 months agoWhile I respect the intent, I do think that you probably need to consider the reasoning as well. Putting black and white morality over actions isn’t necessarily correct either.
Poking fun at someone who is objectively evil over their appearance is “something” that an average person can do that might actually affect the person in question. It might not do anything, but it’s sure as hell more appropriate and effective than trying to point out the issue with their moral stance. You can’t always make a difference through peaceful or indirect means.
I think it’s important to point out that body shaming someone who isn’t a bad person is wrong, but it is also important to point out that for most people our words are our only recourse. You can insult a terrible person for one thing, while ignoring or praising the same trait in someone who is good.
Maybe it should be though
Well my dreams last night were about a group of people that were having a competition in a barber shop to see who could cut out holes from the skin on the top of their heads without looking at how deep the incisions were and without any anesthetic…
So honestly - not looking at my phone is really the most reasonable part of the majority of my dreams.
Sestrento zerowaste@slrpnk.net•Zero-wasting the cold: Does anyone ever freeze blocks of ice outside in the winter and let them defrost in the fridge/freezer?4·7 months agoGiven that most of the temperature differential is due to heat transfer, it’s really almost completely irrelevant. A refrigerator doesn’t generate cold. It moves heat out and insulates. The only actual “gain” would be from the residual heat generated by the inefficiency of the electrical components. You’d probably negate any benefits just by opening the door to the house to get the ice.
Their solution to a problem is to pretend like it doesn’t exist simply because it will go away in the future? It’s a reason, but it isn’t a good one.
Gnome does some questionable things, and some are just personal preference, but there is at least one thing that they do that makes zero sense regardless of how you use your system…
The AppIndicator extension SHOULD be default. There is no reason for it to be an extension other than pure stubbornness. There are applications that literally require it in order to function at all.

The whole point of doing a separate partition for your home directory is to do just that… The fuck is this even supposed to mean.
Sestrento Free OpenSource Software @infosec.pub•Discord Screen Share Audio Now Works on Linux2·8 months agoEh, Vesktop already works and is actually open source. My issue has always been the fact that discord was built on an old version of electron that didn’t support Wayland screen share at all. I didn’t see any mention in this article if that was ever rectified, but with the issue already resolved by a third party, why even bother now.
It was always so ridiculous that you could just open the website and it worked perfectly fine, but the official application didn’t work.
Sestrento Single Board Computers@lemux.minnix.dev•Boardcon Compact3588S SBC - A Raspberry Pi 5 alternative based on Rockchip RK3588S AI SoC with M.2 socket for SSD or 4G LTE module - CNX SoftwareEnglish6·8 months ago“The company does not provide pricing information for the Compact3588S SBC and asks customers to request a quotation.”
So it’s only a pi5 competitor if you’re a company willing to buy in bulk… Nobody is going to hold prices of a sub-$100 product hostage if it were ever intended to go to individuals or hobbyists.
I prefer to buy it, use it for a few days, and then return it as defective. Not my problem that they accept any and all returns for completely bs reasons. Who needs “sales” if you’re just getting your money back anyway.
And yes I know that this fucks over the seller more than Amazon itself, but ultimately there’s fuck all that I can do to hurt Amazon. I might as well get something out of it if they’re going to own the world.

Tits and ass? No problem. We can calculate that from a single pixel or a 2 letter prompt.
Where does the thumb go? Pfft, that’s impossible to say for certain. May as well just give up while we’re ahead.
Snaps do suck, but from a usability standpoint, you really can’t ignore the fact that 99% of documentation assumes deb, and Ubuntu is generally more up to date than pure Debian. I don’t like it myself, but it works and it’s better than Windows.
