Plex. I’m not sure if Jellyfin is foss, but if it is, I haven’t felt like converting my library. I’ve put a lot of work into making it just right.

Steam, obviously.

other than video games, I think that’s really it. I still use some others, like Spotify, but not primarily, I just like to have options.

That and jokes about refusing to call it X

Clearly whoever wrote this has not tried torrenting popular content 🤨

I pirate. I don’t justify pirating. I just do it, because I want things and have the ability to get them for free, so I do that.

I think about this constantly. I’m constantly very upset about it. I’ve lost friends to cancer and freak accidents, and the loss of the internet is still genuinely the greatest tragedy in my life. The internet is, in large part, nothing more than a series of very customizable and semi-niche subscription packages and big box stores now. VR, particularly VR Chat, is close to/reminiscent of what it used to be like, so I cling to that, Lemmy, piracy, archive.org, and a few other things very tightly, but VR is starting to enter an era comparable to when cable internet started to become commonly available (and full of obnoxious unsupervised children), so it’s on its way out; not to mention the continued attempts to ruin the internet archive, which will be, not hyperbolically, the greatest loss to our species since the destruction of Alexandria.

We had it all, and it got bought out from under us, and there’s nothing to be done about it. People en masse don’t even know what we’re missing. I hate it. I’ll never get over the obsolescence of specialized forums in favor of social media, in particular.

That an omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent being created all of existence, knew everything that would ever happen and everything its creations would ever do, but still either doomed to damnation or lifted up to paradise each one of them as a result of them doing exactly what they’d been programmed to do

Net Neutrality is a dead concept and has been for years, there’s no walking it back

Whoa!

It doesn’t necessarily work online though cuz you can’t hear that I’m saying it in the voice of Joey Lawrence from Blossom

Raytracing is mostly fucked though, otherwise I’d be gaming exclusively on Linux as well. Aside from that though I’ve never had any issues with Nvidia on Linux.

The fact that “they’re trying to take away my right to take away the rights of others” never stands out as a logic issue to these people says enough

I’ve done a shitload more than dabble, and I assure you, it didn’t end me up here. This is just people who desperately lack critical thinking skills.

I’ve installed Arch myself plenty of times, and I use Endeavour now just because I don’t feel like spending the time. Automation is a wonderful thang.

I’m using Connect because Jerboa ended up having some issues, what are some good foss lemmy apps?

Water is in every beverage, this question is unanswerable.

Even without trying to be pedantic, what about Vitamin Water? Cuz my answer would genuinely be tropical citrus vitamin water. I could also do Mountain Dew, which btw contains water.

So the question becomes based on the exclusion of water without additives, which begs the question, why not lemon water then, and what amount of additives qualifies it as ‘not water’ anymore? If I use lemon extract and sugar does that count as lemonade? If so, why isn’t water with lemon extract considered unsweetened lemonade?

I’d be a thousand percent down if I didn’t think it’d be a subscription service that only exists to exploit me

No doubt, most people would hate this and I understand why, but I for one am just not one of those people.

I live in the northeast US and nothing depresses me like watching the days get longer as spring and summer approach. When winter comes, I sleep through all the daylight hours and only wake up once it’s dark, going to sleep as the sun comes up.

If I’m ever crazy rich, my dream is the have two houses, on either side of the world, so I can live where it’s perpetually night for six months, and fly to the other house as soon as it starts to switch, so I can live in perpetual night.

Yea but 90% of everything above Orange County is intensely conservative.

Albany and Saratoga are fine, a few spots here and there are ok, maybe Ithaca and other bigger areas, but legit the entire reason I left Fulton/Montgomery (besides the rampant meth abuse and constant threat of violence) was so I could raise my kid in a place not dominated by rebel flags and red white and blue truck balls.

75lbs?

Edit; OH I thought you said “down TO 75lbs” my bad

how is that miserable?
