  • TIL Airplane! is a parody.

  • Measles has spread to where I am at. Other than a mask/Vaccine, what else can help protect against it?

  • Nah, I live in a country with mandatory vaccination for kids, so you're on your own on this one.

  • Brother accused of locking down third-party printer ink cartridges via forced firmware updates, removing older firmware versions from support portals [see comments]

  • Looks like nobody can or is willing to do decent printers anymore. I'll run my Laserjet 1100 till it dies, then I'm done with printing.

  • What hyped thing did you fall for that you now regret and have to live with?

  • That's one tattoo I can respect.

  • Everything you do or don't do is a political statement. Do you think you can somehow exist in a bubble where politics is something that happens to someone else? How naive.

  • If Proton does not refer to the Steam's Windows adapter layer for Linux, I don't care.

  • What is your personal most hated company or corporation?

    Jump

  • Oh, I have my favorites.

    Nestle is up in the list, as is Monsanto.

    For years I hated Microsoft with a passion for all the scummy things they did. They killed a lot of good companies and products by shady business practices rather than competing with quality software.

    Then there's Nvidia. These bastards will just not play ball with open source, so every gamer kid that somehow decides to try Linux and fails thanks to their shitty drivers end up in reddit screaming "Linux sucks". AMD and Intel are fine to open source their drivers or at least publish the specs so others may do it for them. I suspect the true reason is that there's a lot of benchmark rigging code inside Nvidia's drivers.

  • Microsoft hypes another generative AI model but doesn't really explain how it'll help [game] developers

    Jump

  • So they are marketing this to the Sinclair ZX Spectrum fans? It seems powerful enough, we only use 256x192 with 16 colors (two of which are black).

    Good job, Microsoft!

  • I'm glad someone focuses on the important facts. The way they are sitting sideways to the TV will surely give them sore necks.

  • People who live in functional and safe countries, how happy are you?

    Jump

  • All the fucking right wing wankers are feeling empowered and crawling from under the rocks thanks to the blond Cheeto you guys idiotically voted as president. Economy is going to shit. This is a nice peaceful sunny European country and we're suffering with your idiocy. So not very happy. At all.

  • What's your favorite thing to come out of Monty Python?

    Jump

  • I'm getting better!

  • What is your favorite (non-drug) high?

    Jump

  • It's called frisson . There was an /r devoted to it, I haven't found any Lemmy equivalent.

  • What's everyone's favorite Lemmy app?

    Jump

  • Used Boost for Reddit, then when the API shenanigans happened I moved to Lemmy. I tried a few apps until Boost was working with Lemmy and I was happy. A few months back I started to notice some unfixed bugs, so I moved to Infinity and am happy again.
