Fantastic comment that speaks to so many of the contradictions of the current political line in the west. This one goes in my special little tankie book that I read at night under the covers

I know I shouldn’t be disappointed it hasn’t already been said, but uh… rap music really came into its own in the 90s. Also, you know… was probably the peak as well.

Sure - if you are looking to play Better Than Wolves or Tekkit specifically (forgive what I am sure are boomer MC mod references) thats what you will go for.

I think my comment was more intended for people who aren’t yet aware of MT, its mod scene, and the huge catalogue of components available in its ContentDB.

holy moly! just when i was hankering for some of those advent burgers

based and the natural progression of things imo

hey, if you like Minecraft, and you like freedom, you really should check out Minetest, which VoxeLibre is built in. Do some reading about it – it’s an engine, and it lets you build voxel games for you and your friends/kids to play.

unless you WANT to keep supporting bill gate’s cocaine habit with your minecraft bucks

If you are using Tor or Librewolf, it is probably “letterboxing”, a part of ResistFingerprinting, which you should find in about:config or in the settings.

… but like the other person implied, its not a great idea to disable this. I would like to recommend checking out the EFF’s page on the topic – https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/

But you are an adult, presumably, so I will leave you the information and let you decide. Be safe out there

…streamers…??? i guess

(forgive the American POV)

What I anticipate is that government services will start to appear less in people’s lives, very gradually. HOPEFULLY people start to get a bit more involved in their community. Probably, our urban environments will end up worse for wear. Cars will trend rarer and rarer, and hopefully we’ll have some kind of renaissance of automotive maintenance to keep the good vehicles working (spoken as a car hater). HOPEFULLY we will get over the taboo of calorically-expensive human-centric farming (makes sense for some specific, small scale stuff where its not just a soil science and fertilizer supply game). As an extension to that last one - fewer (but not NO) email and service jobs.

Saying all of that sounds kind of rosy or very positive - obviously, the collapse would be bad, there would be hunger, there would be violence… but there already is, I guess? The main point I guess I’m trying to make is that collapse is gradual and I think westerners have seen some of the baby steps.

As a younger person I was a big ‘big government’ and bureaucracy advocate, so this isn’t a libertarian wet dream or something, it’s just informed by the change I’ve seen personally and a bit of extrapolation and history.

Do we have an insight into how much of the writing Seinfeld accomplished in the post-David years? Like, they had a staff of writers, so I’m not sure if Seinfeld was the biggest voice at that time or if he was just being a star

The silenced cries of the side taskbars…

Have had at least one phone fitting this description. :(

Android, too.

As a big fan of the show - don’t look into his dating history unless you want a plurality of reasons to dislike him.

is it ok if i kind of like gallagher in a partially ironic sort of way or do we not do that anymore

I find this hard to believe. Are you thinking talent shows and CV accomplishments? We’ve got a whole society of people undervaluing their soft skills, and work traditionally relegated to women.

I personally am one of these people who doesn’t ever get to the point where I feel I am an expert in a skill. I really love to learn enough to understand what “my” experts are talking about, and understand why they love it. Then I usually move onto something else to see if there’s a better fit.

Having people in my life lavishing praise upon me for things that I don’t consider that impressive is probably something that helps keep perspective, though, and I guess that is an experience I wish more people had.

I would say I agree with this, but also just navigating social interactions at work. As I’ve got my life together in the last few years, I’ve grown increasingly shocked at how many of my coworkers just… can’t get over simple adult challenges like avoiding hanger by eating normally timed meals/keeping their tempers in check, recognizing and isolating insecurities. These are things that take time to overcome, certainly, but the bare minimum is the bottom of the pyramid of needs, and I see well-paid people failing at them constantly.

I think that I learned a lot about basic work courtesy as a younger person but didn’t actually understand how to practice it and communicate healthily and positively with others until just recently. Probably because I had my own insecurities and issues holding me back.

have you been smoking that ganja

its habit forming you know!!!

While y’all are out here hoping for wind, solar, and EVs to take off, I’m here counting the E-ink dubs

Yeah I have seen a lot of people commenting about it

Why not just discuss what to do about it without indulging in the politics that you don’t want to engage with? Lemmy is full of people capable of talking about technology

Distrotube and Mental Outlaw were the two final dominoes in a decade+ long journey for me :) those two are both legit
