No, Ubi is evil. Ubisoft heads believe you have no rights to the game you bought. None whatsoever. Yves has the biggest hardon for cloud streaming you've ever seen, because it means a perpetual revenue stream for him, and zero control for you.

No, he thinks the capitalist hellscape we are leaving behind is socialism, apparently.
Governments work for whoever acts like their bosses. The people don't act that way, and oligarchs do, so here we are.
It's very difficult to promote fedi as a whole. You really have to promote specific sites, and there seems to be a lot of resitence to doing so. And even if there wasn't, it can be difficult to communicate the value to people in the age of the omni-website.
I miss when they were gooey. I got a white chocolate one from the UK this year, and it was kinda gooey. But not what it was like in the 90s.
Well, most of us know how to deal with all of those, and the vast majority of them haven't been an issue for the average user for, like, decades now. No one's fucking with compatubility mode post, like, 2004.
Meanwhile, most of the help you get when trying to solve issues on Linux are command line commands that are not explained by the helper and which we have no idea what they actually do.
The fight I had just to get my printer to work. The fight I'm still having to get my audio interface to work consistently.
It's not an abstraction of search, though. It's a conditional regurgitation of the entire Internet with randomization. That is significantly and meaningfully different.
It's not finding text or context matches and reproducing them, it's guessing the next word based off of the steaming pile of horse shit people have dumped over the Internet in attempts to garner attention or scam others.
It's like merging multiple communities together against their knowledge, will, or consent, because people are too fucking lazy to use the Subscriber feed.
If only indigenous folks had money! Then you'd probably be defending them.
I regretfully cannot attend, the kid from Air Bud just shit the bed.
No, this is not obvious at all. It just come across as parachuting into a joke post that's getting attention and rambling about something completely off topic. Like if I spat out 3000 words about the market price of lobster in response to this post.
People can't hear your thoughts. If you don't include your priors or your thought triggers in the actual comment, you're just having a public conversation with yourself, in front of someone else's audience.
Crazy how the only one of these airing criticism that says the budget isn't doing enough is the publicly owned one.
Hey everyone, just an update to my last post from Sunday night.
The eclipse went off without a hitch -- thankfully, I am not personally capable of interfering with celestial events -- and I have to say, nothing could have ever possibly prepared me for the experience. No photo has ever actually captured what I saw Monday afternoon. I don't think any of them have come close.
Picture of my own attached for total lack of effect.
As I looked down at my camera screen and watched the last light of the crescent Sun disappear from my view, I felt totality occur. The umbra of the Moon swept over me while I looked down, and the world got noticeably chilly. The wind died down. The world was silent for a hiccup. I immediately and excitedly looked up, and I think my brain broke.
Hovering in the sky over Potato World was an black, alien orb, surrounded by a thin ring of brilliant white and pink shimmering fire. It was something straight out of a science fiction movie, and not necessarily a good one, either. It looked so incredibly fake.
It looked downright cartoony.
And it hit me like a ton of bricks. I wept as I stared at it, completely unable to maintain composure. I gawked at how bright the solar corona actually was -- I had completely expected to have to strain to see it. I marveled as I realized I was seeing, with my own two, naked eyes, solar prominences arching over the limb of the Moon. And I just sobbed through the whole experience.
My fiancee, whose interest in this had seemed to be primarily a mix between modest curiosity in a significant natural and cultural event and support for my interest, also cried at seeing it, while her son sat on the ground with his mouth hanging open.
It was both the longest and the shortest 3 minutes of my life. When it was over, I just stood in the field in a daze, periodically pressing my camera's shutter button. In just a few minutes following the end of totality, the field, in which hundreds of people had gathered, was nearly empty. Only a handful of us remained, and most of the others had heavier equipment than my DSLR and tripod.
At the end of the day, I didn't quite get the pictures I wanted. I had hoped to get bracketed exposures during totality, and I had assumed that my camera's settings for that when using the LCD display as digital viewfinder would be the same as when using the optical viewfinder, and they weren't. But I'm not too fussed about it. The pictures still turned out significantly better than I could have hoped for.
I'll be posting the rest of my photos -- including some pictures of Potato World itself -- to my PixelFed account, which can be found here, if anyone's interested: https://pixey.org/i/web/profile/384533916920271164
