Oh, sick, new Bringus post? I’ll be in my bunk.
Oh, sick, new Bringus post? I’ll be in my bunk.
Yeah I was really bummed to find this out along with all the nazi signposting that slipped past me because I couldn’t hear the dog whistle, he might be the only creator I’ve ever actually gone and unsubscribed to. Shame, too, because some of those videos were actually really good, credit where it’s due (even if that credit isn’t due to IH himself).
I do this for tomatoanus skits as well, those are usually pretty off the wall. My man has an entire storyline saga going on in his ad read sections.
Chucks and Vans are definitely not good shoes. They are stylish shoes, but the shoe itself is a piece of cloth over a piece of cardboard. No wonder you have bad feet, bro, you’ve been walking on trash.
I bought a pair of steel toe boots with good insole and arch support for about $85 three years ago and those things are still going strong. Comfy and durable. If you’ve got big feet or want nicer boots than me, that can range up to about $150, anything higher than that is designer bullshit. Don’t fall for a brand name.
Right, so Finland, France, Germany, Norway, New Zealand, Japan, Australia, Korea, Spain, the Netherlands, and Italy all don’t exist. Got it.
Yes, because naturally no other country in the world enjoys a similar level of prosperity without creating an underclass that they abuse for their profit.
We don’t need to print more money, we have more than enough money. We just need to recirculate the money we do have. There is plenty of money in the USA for most citizens to live a comfortable life without exploitation, but 80% of that money is buried in the pockets of corporations and 15% of the remaining 20% is buried in the pockets of billionaires.
Blame the fact that it’s so difficult to immigrate legally yet an overwhelming number of businesses rely on cheap immigrant labor. This is a feature, not a bug, because they can pay the illegal immigrants less and abuse them without fear of reprisal because if the employer gets any attitude about it, they call ICE and have the worker deported and replaced with the next struggling desperate immigrant.
There is no illegal worker in the US that would rather be an illegal worker than a legal carded one. The system is stacked against them because it saves businesses money to do so.
Most F-Droid stuff AFAIK should be pretty plug and play. It’ll download an APK which you then just open in order to install the app. You may need a file browser app if your phone OS doesn’t come with one. You may also need to allow installs from third party somewhere in the settings. But android isn’t like iOS and won’t generally restrict your ability to install whatever you want, outside of an options popup to make sure you know what you’re doing.
I don’t use LibreTube personally and can’t speak on that specifically though, if it does something other than just download you an APK file.
Semi-related, are there Leftwingers that are righties unwilling to even say the name of?
Arguably Joe Biden, they’ve been calling him Brandon for years. But they make up stupid little nicknames for everyone.
Fuck yeah, good for Mike. That sort of thing still works sometimes, but you have to be really, really good at what you do. But getting a good portfolio in the right hands at the right time is really all it takes.
After reviewing this list I have neglected to mention Shadows of Forbidden Gods, a Civ like where you play as Cthulhu, and more importantly I forgot to talk about Deep Rock Galactic and will be hurling myself into lava as penance at my nearest convenience.
Hell yeah I would.
If you enjoy roguelikes, I got you in spades.
Outside of the roguelike genre there are also a couple good ones that I’ll name, though I do admit this list will probably be shorter:
I have to stop myself here because I could go on about this all night and still not be done. Gaming is my main hobby and indie games are the main games I play. Name me a genre you enjoy and I’ll scroll around for recommendations if none of the above catch your eye.
It’s the golden age of indie games. I’ve got dozens of games on my steam library made by a team of between 1 and 12 people that I bought for $20 or less. Those guys are doing great, and doing great work. I rarely ever even give a second glance to big AAA releases anymore, with a couple specific exceptions.
Korpiklaaani’s cover of Ievan Polkka goes absolutely insanely hard
Yes, that’s the only thing I know about them
I’ve also recently discovered Brothers of Metal who despite having the most boring metal band name in history are a pretty good nordic/viking metal band, I’m a big fan of Powersnake by them in particular recently
Truly it boggles the mind.
I remember trying to play Earthbound when I was younger. The story is fascinating, I really want to love the game, but the actual gameplay didn’t really grab me. I remember getting to the first major town area and getting my ass beat by the gangsters or whoever that you need to fight there. Never made it past that point.
Any tips, if I wanted to pick it up again? Is this a game that expects you to grind? I found the early game to be really difficult, and I’m not usually one to be turned off by that but I really felt like I was hitting a brick wall and I think I must have missed something fundamental.
I truly don’t understand how people are playing games like Fortnite or Genshin on a phone and enjoying themselves. That’s probably the single worst possible interface to play the game on, that’s like showing up to a counterstrike tournament with a racing wheel. I can’t even play Minecraft on my phone without getting extremely quickly frustrated and Minecraft doesn’t give half a shit about your reaction time or accuracy most of the time. If you want me to play an FPS on a touch screen I’m just gonna take the L and save myself the trouble, it’s not happening.
but the point I’m trying to make is that there is more than enough content here, if you look for it.
If you’re looking for Linux memes, American politics, or tumblr crossposts, absolutely. Lemmy has you covered in spades. But I miss some of my more niche communities. I miss memes and discussions about Deep Rock Galactic and Guilty Gear. I miss discussing Elden Ring pvp. I miss the Warhammer 40k nerds. I miss /r/JustRolledIntoTheShop. In the meantime I’ve been making do (ineffectively) with Discord groups but it’s not a good replacement.
I’m not going back to reddit, especially now after recent news, but even you have to admit some types of content are lacking. For certain subjects, we’ve got it handled. For many, many others, we just don’t have the mass of users required to build that community. And in some ways that’s good. Not having Lemmy become the seething mass of infinite strangers that Reddit was helps keep us more personal, more manageable. I recognize names here sometimes that I’m happy to see, that rarely ever happened on reddit. But I’ve had radio silence on some of my favorite hobbies and communities for about a year now and it kind of sucks. It sucks to the point that I’m frequently tempted to return to reddit just to check up on some communities, but I’m always turned away by their most recent user-hostility.
Best source is a reddit link, sorry.
I thought going in that people had to be overreacting about it, I know he’s a bit edgy and pretty clearly grew up on 4chan but it couldn’t be that bad.
Nah, it’s pretty bad.
