This is a vent platform. Not an opinionated one. Are you confusing the two?

[–] pyrinix@kbin.melroy.org -1 points 3 months ago

Yeah, an opinion you can't handle, you call it 'bait'. Whatever, dude. Keep coping around the reality that people think and will say things you won't like to read. Boo-hoo.

You're clicking the picture.

 

Okay, we get it. We fucking get it. You think your free open-source OS is the best shit ever made. But you know what? I'm continuing to use what I'm using and been using, because I'm about sick of the smugness radiating off of any sap who uses Linux.

You're like fucking Jehovah's Witnesses, except you're doing it in the name of Linux. Any chance you seek, on any gaming article, on any technology article .etc You're right fucking there to make some smug comment about Linux.

Here's the funny part. Aren't one of the things you're proud about Linux for is the option of free choice? Well, what do you think you're fucking doing when you're going around browbeating anyone into using what you use? You're taking away people's free choice.

If they want to use Windows - fuck off. If they want to use Mac - fuck off. You would get defensive quickly if anyone tried telling you to use something else that's not your precious Linux OS.

Not everything should orbit around your fucking ways in how you use a computer.

The US is a founder. It would be hard to.

It's just best to be the EU and extend membership.

I think that's how sports should be digested. It's impossible to keep track of every single game, much less, even attend those games. I think that's a luxury for those who obviously can afford to do so.

The only time I'm involved with sports is when the playoffs happen, so I'm there for the World Series. But I'm not there for the full 162-game season. I'll root for my team when they're doing good in the standings, whether they've done some right moves and criticize them when they do something stupid or fail the season.

Sorry, I'm not sympathetic. You've damned us all because of your poorly uneducated choices.

You did vote to lose your job. You deserve to lose your job. More people are going to lose their job, like you.

And you voted for it.

Stop excusing the stupid. People are capable to learn to avoid it and disable it.

It's more likely that before humanity got enough of its brain together to make it outlawed in majority of countries, we as a species, have probably fucked eachother in a family for years.

But just because that is plausible, doesn't make it any more right to do.

I believe it is the free games, sir.

There is remotely nothing about that launcher that makes me go "yup, I'm happy to have this thing installed". Tim Sweeny seems to love eating his own shit as his diet, because he seems to believe he's superior than Valve.

Why does their launcher suck so much bandwidth and CPU usage to get a game downloaded? Jesus.

Ha, shows you right.

God, people, just get yourselves flash drives or an external drive. Cloud storage is dumb.

You could make either of those options last through your entire lifetime if you care for them properly. But I guess people enjoy the idea of going "huh?" whenever files mysteriously disappear from cloud storage.

Distortion and Chaos.

Nothing more and nothing less.

Some social media trolls as we know, are fueling propaganda for a representative state as we've seen with Russian trolls before in the past. But a lot of the time, there do exist people who have way too much time on their hands to be going around and just practically shit on everything. It's for their own amusement, I believe and whatever arbitrary belief system they have with themselves that we don't know about.

 

Not everything that is good and free, is always going to last for free. Some people out there need to figure a way to make ends meet, like the rest of us. Some people want to be rewarded for the dedication of their work. If they decide to monetize what was once free, then they're going to.

Some things that are the exception are software like Linux OSes and programs like LibreOffice. But I'm talking about things you really loved and couldn't believe that were free one day, suddenly turn around and have to slap a price tag on it.

You know, people got to sustain themselves and that's the truth of it.

 

Mine always is, completely forgetting what I was doing and where I was going after not touching a save file for a long time. This is happening to me right now with Stardew Valley.

I'm in Year 4, married Maru, have a decent farm going, I have yet to build the movie theater I just found out so that's something I can do. And I know up until that point, I called it a conclusion of a game, but yet I forgot completely about there being some minor goals or things I wanted to do. Completely out of my head. It was a year ago since I last touched that save.

This happens a lot with old saves, because sometimes I have had something in mind as to how I was going to play the game or where I was going with a character.

 

Jesse "The Body" Ventura threatened a potential return to the Minnesota governor's office following the shooting of a mother by an ICE agent in Minneapolis.

 

When your mind and body doesn't correlate eachother anymore as they used to. Your body wants to say "hey! lets go out and do things!" but your mind tends to go "Nah, I just want to sit here and think about stuff" and sometimes it is the opposite.

 

Aldrich Ames was a counterintelligence officer for the CIA who spied for the Soviet Union and later Russia.

 

Rosen's early efforts to import arcade amusements overseas would lead to the formation of Sega and the foundation of Japan's arcade scene.

 
 

I just shake my head everytime I see these kinds of compilations released. I've been playing these games for years, through emulation. These bundles advertise being able to use filters for 'authenticity' gameplay, online playability and such. Emulators can and have long done these things too.

But, there are people out there, who'll wait for years on end for these compilations to be made and some shamelessly buy them. When you can cut all of that down by spending less than 2 minutes grabbing a ROM and grabbing an emulator before you're well on your way to revisit your old favorites.

 

Just 55 minutes ago as I'm typing this, I was in the middle of trying to start a therapy session with my therapist. And, the link she gave me worked, it detected my webcam and seemingly the microphone. I had done a test 30 minutes prior to make sure things were working.

And by the time therapy started, the video worked, the microphone didn't. So I went into system settings, verified that Google Chrome was pointed directly to my headset and the webcam, no cross-interfering with mics and audio. Went into Chrome itself, verified to settings that they were set to point exactly as to where they should be, correspondingly.

This thrust me into a 15 minute infuriating experience where, rebooting the browser and rebooting the machine now seemed to have made it so the site suddenly couldn't fucking detect the webcam and microphone. For reasons, I don't fucking know.

We had to do our session through my phone via Google Voice.

So the point of the matter is, is that shit decided to stop fucking working for WHATEVER reason, despite it working fine previously.

Fucking garbage. I destroyed the webcam out of frustration and filed an angry ticket to the site operator about how their fucking site couldn't be bothered to detect my equipment after that.
