finally going back and playing dark souls remastered as someone who has only played demon’s souls. so far it feels very familiar yet different. definitely has that from software jankyness.

I’m really good at surviving with a very small amount of money. For a while I also would steal food from wherever I could get it, I thankfully don’t have to do that anymore but the skills are there.

Warzone player here, I actually had to switch back to windows after like 3 years on mint because of this sadly.

meanwhile apex legends just stopped supporting Linux :|

me and my friends returned to cod after 9 years with this game. we tried MW3 but lost faith as it was a crashing, janky piece of rubbish. but this one man, there is something special again for the first time in so long…

I just don’t use torrents anymore, I use xdcc. I used to torrent, but there is so much ransomware, ISP threats, malware, ect. I still use torrents for official things like Linux Isos or Gimp though. Gen z here

more like 5th circus

I used Linux for a long time, like years, as my main os since I was a teenager. (I broadly say Linux because I hopped distro a lot). but ultimately, I hardly even used it by the end because during my creative bursts, I would be using windows exclusive software that was just better than any Foss. then, I would want to play some multiplayer games with my friends, where the anti cheat only worked on windows. this totaled to like 75 percent of my time being used on windows in the end, so I just sucked up to the reality of the situation and hardened windows for privacy and debloating and switched back after so long. if it weren’t for those 2 specific things, I would have probably kept mint as a daily driver forever, it was really stable and nothing else was an issue for me. but the fact is that I (and presumably many other people) don’t want to give up things we enjoy and spend more time bleak and bored just to prove a point to some company that doesn’t know we exist. I’m sure for a lot of people though, daily driving Linux would be fine for things like YouTube or online shopping or whatevsies.

I just never did it, why even replace it. just remove it entirely.

lemmyworld in many ways is still just reddit. don’t get me wrong, I’ve talked to plenty of cool people on there before. but it is the biggest instance that ballooned after the API controversy and a lot of them seem to have just brought Reddit to the fediverse with them. I have no issues with any mods there, I’ve not really seen them at all. they did defed a community from my instance though so that’s pretty lame of them.

I’ve been keeping the Pokémon creepy black ROM hack inside my delta emulator for the same reason. It’s interesting to me when people make real ROM hacks out of urban legends and creepypastas.

I’ve been playing Pokémon leaf green. Me and my friend initially started opposite versions together, but he got bored fast because he tried to marathon it and got burnt out. I’ve been playing a little bit each day. Right now I’m in the Pokémon tower about to go to celadon city and get a thunderstone to evolve my Pikachu and Eevee.

about 20 minutes to the grocery store, 5 to the convenience store, about 10 to the bus stop 20 to the park. West coast.

I’ve been getting around it by setting my frontend to use an embed request, that way YouTube thinks it’s a third party embed and the ad injection doesn’t work. I’ve also in the past geospoofed to Russia and that works to block ads too.

theoretically, they could switch the player to use a nocookie embed.

front right is phone. front left is anything else.

I’ve lost many, including a front one. even had to have a jaw surgery when I was 17. it’s just so expensive. so every time I want to schedule, I think “what if I can’t afford it”.

I’ve desperately needed a dentist appointment for so long… but I keep doing this.

this instance is well known for takes like these when it comes to politics unfortunately. its better to not engage with any sort of political posts on here.
