I’ll give you the csgo gambling. That is fucked up.

But their refund policy is best in class. I don’t care how they got there, it’s better than shops give me for actual physical games…

I’d love to see what you consider an alternative better storefront.

Elaborate?

It’s easy to just spout generic steam hate, but I’d love to hear what steam does worse than other pc storefronts.

Lemmy has a hardon for FOSS, and an irrational hatred for windows.

Aside from that, it’s quite nice imo

Swap to a 0 calorie version and just keep enjoying it? Fizzy drinks are a pretty harmless vice in the grand scheme of things. Hollow calories, so if you can replace it with a 0 calorie version, it would at least stop affecting your weight.

I know everyone is against artificial sweeteners. They won’t kill you faster than microplastics, pollution, break pad dust, war, alcohol, smoking,…

Enjoy life! Enjoy a fizzy drink! I thoroughly enjoy my daily coke zero can.

I use Linux and windows. Windows is so much simpler for 99% of ppl that grew up with it.

I love your optimism. But if even a single digit percentage of them migrates to Linux, that would be mind boggling.

Lol, OK. Yeah. Didn’t think about caveats. :D

Ah, fair enough. So that’s similar to “infinite universes of infinite possibilities, except light can never go faster than 300.000 km/sec”?

In an infinite list of letters, every single book ever written, every word ever spoken (and to be written/spoken) should be present no?

I guess the only caveat is that in an infinite universe certain physical laws could be universal (which would prevent eg any universe to break the speed of light)? But some version of me having hair past my 30s should certainly exist no?

Or am I getting this completely wrong?

Don’t want to get into a whole argument, But ltt suggested to stop throwing dirt. GN turned around and just continued slinging dirt. Just feels weird to me.

A whole lot of shit slinging at LTT for no real reason. At when LTT rebuked the claims and suggested to stop doing so and work together in the future, GN just decided to double down and continue.

A bunch of childish stupid drama tbh, but very one-sided.

To be honest, GN is not worth your viewing time anymore. He’s just trying to stir drama on tech YouTube for the sake of starting drama…

He got multiple olive branches offered to stop the drama and he just threw them on top of the fire. He’s being a manchild for no reason.

Cheers. Rom hacks are like indie gaming lite. Some of them are great fun.

I use windows. I haven’t paid for a windows key since windows 7 iirc. Windows has been free for years. (I know you pay with your data etc. Good luck convincing average Joe who uses all social media services that this even matters)

For me personally: I really enjoy tiktok. My feed is curated enough over time that I only see stuff I’m genuinely interested in, comedy, science, tech, fitness and ofcourse skimpy dancing ladies. I do not suffer from the so called propaganda on it.

I agree that tiktok melts brains of teenagers, but so does Instagram reels, facebook and YouTube shorts. So that isn’t a tiktok issue in itself anymore.

My grandfather for sure. No way he would be able to understand the current cultural climate. He basically died from getting worked up about stuff the entire time in the late 90s. I’m 100% sure he never stopped rolling around.

I use swiftkey. I type in 3 different languages daily (even in individual conversations) . Swiftkey does this very simply and automatically. Almost no fucking around with changing languages. It just does it by itself.

Would love to use other keyboards, but none of them comes even close if you need multiple languages all the time.

How? They orbit quite a lot higher than the highest clouds.

Highest clouds are like 70-90km. Starlink Sats are 500km+

Ah, true. My bad.

Or native gestures in Firefox. Either would be perfect.

You do you mate.
