I thought it’s called Türkiye now. Gobble gobble.

Running EndeavourOS with Nvidia on Wayland for some months now. Prior to 555 it was a bit janky at times. Since then, and now with 560, the only issue I’m having is related to sleep/hibernation mode. Game wise everything runs fine.

Sadly it’s not even that far off the truth. Looking at Europe where more and more countries lean to the right. And the best idea democratic parties have is to copy right wing talking points in order to win back voters… which obviously doesn’t work.

PayPal is already shitty enough at it is, we don’t need another crappy payment app.

That’s pretty much it. It just assumes what the next word should be.

I still have my old laptop from college for whenever my PC is dead and I need a backup device. It’s from 2008 and still has an HDD. There’s Windows 7 installed and last time i booted it up the boot up time said 316 seconds. It’s ridiculous.

Below average, nerdy, niche hetero guy here with no desire to every have any kids. I’m using dating apps since about November now.

OkCupid: Not that common in my country, which is why I tend to get all kinds of “likes” from people all over the world. Mostly Africa. It has some - as I call it - “FOMO features” included. Meaning: I rarely get any likes when I use premium. The second(!) I don’t have premium any more and can’t check the people that swiped me, there are suddenly 7 likes. It’s a money grab, nothing more. The only interesting thing about it, is the vast amount of questions you can answer and compare with people you swipe.

Bumble: It’s basically the same hell hole everyone says tinder is. Also FOMO-features.

Hinge: The profiles are somewhat limited, compared to other apps. There are some premium plans, but no FOMO-features. The only two dates I ever had came from this app.

blindmate: It’s a very small new app. Not even sure if it’s already available in another language other than German. You can upload up to 6 pictures, set what you’re looking for (age, sex, type of relationship). All other things are done by friends you invite. They answer questions about you (max. 7/day) as well as swipe for you (max. 30/day). If your friends and the friends of the person your friends swiped for both give their okay, you’re matched. At first the main profile pic is pixeled until you exchanged a few messages. You can use Icebreakers which consist of answers of you and your match the friends have given. After a few more messages you can choose to unlock your profile for the match. I have 4 friends that swipe for me for months, 5300+ in total with a total of 28 matches. I’m starting to think that I am the issue here.
