Tried it again a few months ago when HDR support first dropped in KDE. It didn’t work at all. Everything was desaturated and dim. Literally the opposite of what HDR is supposed to do.

I’m giving it another year before I try Linux again. Hopefully the bugs are sorted by then.

Of course. You wouldn’t want to drive for them. The stupid AI cameras are always watching. In the warehouse nobody pays attention to you.

You misunderstood. What I meant is that for every hour you work, you get an hour of paid time off. So if you work 40 hours one week, you could go the entire next week without showing up to work at all if you wanted to, and still get paid for it.

As someone who worked there for a year, the nice thing about Amazon is that managers don’t harass you—even if you come in late every single day—and the 40 hours of paid personal time granted every week is great too. It’s the kind of job where you can just put on your headphones and zone out, and never have to come in on days when you don’t feel like it. Just call off in the app.

Still wouldn’t recommend that anyone works there. Everything else about the job sucks.

Probably. Like I said, I keep dying to the same shit cause I can’t remember where I’ve already been.

People keep telling me that but my “expedition log” is always empty as far as I can tell.

God damnit; you had me sold up until the very end. :(

The gameplay is boring and the story is confusing; don’t bother unless you just want some eye candy to show off what your 4090/5090 can do. The game is a heavily polished turd.

Can anyone recommend a good multiplayer shooter with a high player population? (Either 2D or VR is fine.) Or any non-MMO, non-role-playing PvP game that is mostly online and has populated servers? Something my 37-year-old ass can just jump into and play a quick match without having to dedicate my life to it?

Getting sick of all the PUBGs, Counter-Strikes, Call of Duties, and Overwatches/Marvel Rivalses. My best gaming memories were during the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 days. I never had more fun in a shooter than when I was playing Rush. But unfortunately EA never managed to recapture that same magic in the sequels. After the 2042 flop I quit Battlefield for good.

I went in blind and gave up after about 3 hours. I have no idea what the fuck is going on, which makes it too easy to die to the same thing over and over again, because I can’t remember which paths lead to progress and which ones lead to death.

Outer Wilds is a game for normies with a good memory and proper motor skills.

Mafia 2 is the only one worth playing.

Because Borderlands is boring and repetitive, especially if you don’t have a friend group to play with.

Shit like this is why I don’t use DuckDuckGo. I appreciate them for what they do (and I love the DDG app for it’s tracking protection abilities), but their search is absolute garbage, somehow even worse than Google’s.

But 2024 wasn’t even that bad by comparison… Was the comic supposed to say “2025”?

You seriously don’t know what HDR is? Really? Then we have nothing further to discuss.

Windows 11 is great with some tweaks and has by-far the best HDR implementation of any OS, bar none. I’m getting so sick and tired of people who don’t even use it hating on it constantly. Y’all have done this with every new Windows release except 7 and 98SE. Win11 is a great companion to Arch. Get over yourselves already.

Just do what I do and sleep during the day. Get some good blackout curtains and an eye mask. One of those sunrise simulator alarm clocks would be a good idea too.

Anything made before ~2015. You have a lot of great cars to choose from.

Furthermore: Slashdot still exists? And it still has an active community in the comments!?

Lemmy alone hasn’t been enough to replace reddit for me; I should see if I still remember my old password…

I thought this article was going to be about the microphone that comes included with aftermarket radios. I had no idea that dedicated cigarette lighter mics were a thing. No wonder why they’re shutting it down. Between the mic(s) on your phone and the mic that came with your stereo, it’s a twice redundant product. Why did it even exist to begin with? Who is this for? Someone who doesn’t own an aftermarket radio or a car made in the past decade, who also doesn’t have a phone but somehow has access to Android Auto? What were they thinking? Why would anyone buy this?
