I think so too, but like i said there’s only so many computers that you can find a use for.

I think. That wasn’t a challenge, don’t prove me wrong

Honestly, i predict people and businesses will keep using Win10 years after it’s become unsafe. We’ve all seen the local warehouse still running Windows 7, i’m thinking that scenario but for millions of users.

That’s a cybersecurity problem, but what i’m most concerned with is the e-waste problem, because there’s still going to be a lot of users that do replace their PC. There aren’t enough Linux users to buy all the computers that will be rendered obsolete, and there won’t be by then either. I myself am a new Linux user but i’m already covered, i don’t need more computers, not even for cheap.

I just really hope this doesn’t end with millions of good computers landfilled or parted. The third world already buys a lot of our e-waste, so i hope they’ll get a crapton of relatively good computers for cheap and run either Win10 or Linux

So now the problem is sharing your IP with every member of the P2P swarm.

Has anybody tried to get TempleOS to run Doom?

It’s even the case for physical media, like paper and carved stone, because over a long enough time people forget the language that they were written in. Historians had to teach themselves how to read ancient egyptian, and off the top i think a lot of Maya inscriptions are still a mystery.

That’s just what i’m saying: they shouldn’t spawn inside the building, but every now and then they do anyway.

Here’s the thing that makes Minecraft’s world so much more dangerous: we have life-threatening creatures in the real world too, but they are living creatures bound to the laws of ecology; if you build a city without large herbivores, you can be sure that this city won’t have tigers in it, because they need those to live. A tiger would need to physically walk from the forest to the city, with ample opportunity of getting spotted. Hell, killing the last tiger is a safe way to never have to worry about them again, since they need to reproduce sexually, and if there are no tigers left in an area then no new ones will appear out of nowhere.

Minecraft creatures, meanwhile, do appear out of nowhere. It doesn’t matter if you’ve depleted the world of every last zombie, new ones can spawn absolutely anywhere, even within the safest possible area, all it takes is a small corner of mild darkness. Or does it? Because i’ve had random mobs spawn in extremely well-lit built environments where i was convinced they couldn’t.

Minecraft’s creatures cannot be definitively excluded from an area, nowhere is really safe beyond doubt even if the place is built entirely out of light-emitting blocks.

Then again, people do live in areas with venomous snakes and scorpions, those have a similar “potentially anywhere” threat as Minecraft mobs, yet people seem fine. They don’t live in fear all the time. Then again again, snakes and scorpions are passive and only attack if you make physical contact with them, whereas Minecraft mobs actively look for you.

So yeah, nowhere is truly safe in Minecraft, there’s genuinely always a possibility that you’ll need to defend yourself from some horror.

Eduard von Grutzner painted a lot of monks enjoying beer and spirits.

See the thing is i’m not worldly enough to know what common animals in my country are uncommon in other countries. I mean there’s some mallards here and there, the ones with the green head just like the meme, are those exotic and surprising? Oh, my old hometown has swans. They’re surprisingly aggressive.

What i will say though is that i definitely feel that way about architecture. I quite like the winding medieval back alley leading to a church built in 980 (as in the year), it’s cool; but Americans will have a spiritual experience over it because no building in the US is that old.

I’m currently using a 2008 hard drive and i really hope it has some life left in it because i haven’t backed up the contents yet

This is the magnet i’ve got:

I actually don’t have a torrent client installed right now so i haven’t checked if this is correct, you tell me lol

GTA6 doesn’t release until 2025 so there’s even time for them to make the game great while it’s still the latest in the series.

At the same time, the hacking problem in vanilla GTA:Online is going to get even worse now than it already was.

Overall, it’d say this is good for the likes of FiveM and bad for the vanilla game?

I feel strongly that we should defederate, but i really like your reasoning for being neutral. The fediverse is currently a small community of advanced internet users who see themselves as separate from mainstream users, and the temptation is to gatekeep.

Since 2010 i’ve made three Facebook accounts, deleted one and never use the other two. Active users would be a more useful metric.

It’s been commented on before that, for its size, Twitter has a disproportionate influence not just on the internet but even on politics. This is still the case today because no good alternatives have emerged for the mainstream yet.

Physical buttons. Sometimes an app or the OS itself will fuck up and not show you the home or back button for example.

I would miss headphone jacks but any phone worth buying still comes with those… for now

I was going to use it to lubricate keyboard switches but it turns out that it’s bad for plastics.

I suspect a lot of yall should say this:

There is nothing worse than seeing my own flaws reflected in someone. Like, if they’re a lazy neckbeard who talks about niche media and old-sci-fi while contributing nothing to society.

Especially the flaws i had when i was younger. I die a bit every time i see an unaware selfish arrogant teenager.

And if everyone does that, eventually there will be a main community that emerges and the other ones die.

Washed dishes that had been sitting for a while. There was moist rotten food, and mold.

Everyone reading this, you should try as much as possible to never share a 300 sqft appartment with three male students during lockdown.

Yeah, a ton of people have tried their hand at turning Askreddit into videos. It’s a genre. I’ve watched a few of them because Askreddit is interesting and having this curated experience is even better.

However, as always with YouTube, if it’s easy to do then a lot of people are already doing it, so there’s a lot of channels doing this and most of them don’t go anywhere. A lot of times you can tell the process is as automated as possible.

The same thing will be done with Asklemmy when there’s enough content to support a channel
