Fuck Nintendo. I think Palworld is a stupid game that I wouldn't ever bother to play but Nintendo is pure evil and they NEED to lose. They do not deserve a monopoly on whatever type of genre that is.

Uhh. Who's counterfeiting a cpu that only basically 2 factories in the world can make? Functional fakes are a thing for some really basic chips but an apple arm cpu seems like a little much.

I made a similar thing on my home network. It uses php's built in file upload and runs in the web browser so you don't even need an app. It's just basic beginner level html and php in 2 files that goes on my lan server. Makes it super easy to transfer files between phones, windows pcs and Linux pcs.

I gave up on fighting with windows pcs to try getting them to connect to samba shares a long time ago and you'll never access a samba or windows network share on a smartphone without paying money for some shitty app anyway. Despite this relatively low-tech solution it ends up being more practical just because it's easy and convenient.

Part of the reason I went to school for computer engineering is just so when people try to argue stupid bullshit like leaving your router plugged in will start a fire, hopefully they'll recognize that im qualified enough to know better and fuck off.

We should normalize programs that don't use such exotic and impossible libraries that you have to do anything besides type "make" and "make install" for it to work.

In theory it's a no brainer. In practice not so much.

Neither are dictatorships though, that's the problem. Now is not the time to be fighting the "but it would be better if there were more parties" fight.

Well I wasn't planning on playing GTA 5 but now I guess it'll have to be pirated GTA 5 only so I can play a pre-anticheat version. It sucks that GTA is a game where all the mod developers try hard to make their stuff not work on pirated versions. Guess I'll be avoiding that entire toxic community as a whole. Cyberpunk a better game anyway.

Everything is expensive and everyone's underemployed thanks to all the damage large corporations have done to the job market and the economy as a whole.

I just want to make almost as much money as I made as a shift manager in fast food 10 years ago, which is a job I ironically walked away from to get educated. I just hope the democrats win so they can maybe reverse some of that anti homelessness stuff because we're all going to need it.

The internet has slowly become more and more useless over time since the pandemic. It's fucking impossible to find anything now. Half the time it's like I have better luck doing an lan search on my home network than looking it up on Google and I'm not even very deep into the self hosted everything rabbit hole.

It's like they want us all to be stupid, uninformed and not know how to do anything.

Vaccines are important but a primary reason I'm voting for Harris is because if she doesn't win, this could be the last election. There are morons voting for Trump just because they think they're getting "revenge" for the existence of trans people by voting red. Both sides have wildly different priorities.

I'm OK with actual honest to goodness videos on lemmy generally. It's those fucking gifs that drive me up the fucking wall. Gifs should be banned from lemmy, they're so heavily abused. 3 out of 4 "video" posts is actually just a 100mb+ gif. Use any fucking thing other than gifs. Fuck gifs. If I had a time machine I would go back in time just to prevent gifs from getting invented just so people would stop posting 1 minute long gifs all over lemmy. In fact, maybe I should plot and scheme to sneak the removal of gif support from the lemmy software git repo somehow the same way hackers got that ssh virus in.

Fuck gifs. Everyone needs to stop choosing to use them instead of any other format. Literally anything else would be better. Even drawing a representation of what happened in crayon would be better than posting a gif. If videos are too complicated to figure out you need to be posting a picture or maybe just go outside. Fuck.

No, but the skills you learn by spending 100% of your spare time fixing all the stuff that gets borked after every update prepares you to take better advantage of the easier distros and be more efficient with them.
