I only “upgraded” to Windows 10 (from 7) last year due to software I needed for work. Windows 10 is bad enough, I’m definitely not “upgrading” to 11 until I have to.
In my experience, 10 runs much slower than 7 with so many updates that just kill performance as they’re running. And I’ve had pop-up adverts recently and programs that open on startup despite being disabled
Even if you just chuck them all in the bin for landfill, if it gets your space clean and gets you in a better mood, it’s worth it. Recycle when you can but don’t let your space become a mess just for the sake of recycling a few cans.
They are probably coughing because of the cigarettes car exhaust fumes air pollution goddamn libs
I’m full of microplastics but I keep buying food and drink packaged in plastic _(--)/
Sometimes there’s just no realistic alternative. As nice as it would be to only buy fresh, unpacked food I don’t have the time, money or energy to deal with that
EDIT: oh no, the Lemmy markup has ruined my shrugging face :(
Haha wtf. It’s like that thing in schools of “bullies don’t get punished, but you will be punished if you fight back”
I was thinking about this earlier today for myself. Not specifically about computers, but the same principle. If I have something that bugs me and wastes 10 seconds of my time every single day but I could permanently fix the problem in an hour - logically it’s worth fixing. Even if it eventually saves time, I have to invest an hour of time and brainpower right now. If it’s something I don’t really care about, it’s just not worth it. I don’t need that hassle, I’ll just have a small annoyance every day instead of a big annoyance today. I’ve got better things to do. Like browsing Lemmy apparently
There’s one person on Mars in that film but in reality there’s zero people on Mars. That’s a really small margin of error
I can buy a new toaster from the shop, why can’t I buy a woman too? Does this mean Gamers are pro sex-work? Or pro indentured servitude for women more likely…
Isn’t that the one about a nice spiral shape?
A lot of people are saying depression (which is true) but I’d also like to throw in stress. I like reading and playing strategy games, but I’m sometimes so stressed that I can concentrate enough to do these things. It helps to have some easy, no brain hobbies as well to help get started with relaxation, so you’re able to enjoy your main hobby after you feel a bit better
That’s just crazy talk. Pokémon Blue is my favourite, although I’ve only played up to gen 4 (Diamond, I think is the name). It’s not as good as the previous generations and the physical special split is just weird IMO. I’m sure that’s an unpopular opinion for people who are used to playing like that though, I think it would make more sense to me if it was how it had always been. Abilities were a neat addition though, I’ll give you that
That’s what it is. It’s gloves for feet (and regular socks are mittens for feet)
I thought the first two were jokes until I saw the Mars poster which I recognise
I was going to say burn it too.
My experience in the UK is similar. I’ve never had a good experience with a police officer, and I’ve been profiled for the clothes I wear, but I’ve also never been scared of a police officer (especially never scared for my life). I probably wouldn’t ask an officer for help, but I would also treat them like a person rather than a rabid dog who might just decide to shoot me
Give me an hour and I’m sure I could find a counter-example
Seal giving a ride to a lobster was my guess
I was ordering based on my favourite, rather than what order to play them. I phrased it ambiguously.
But why that order? Gateway to Glimmer is my favourite because the world feels so much more open with being able to swim, and then (spoilers) especially when you can swim underwater.
I’m actually going to change my ranking and put Spyro to Dragon as second best, because it has some really cool level designs like Treetop Village and the Magic Crafter’s homeworld. Also the neh-neh-neh-neh-nehs (blue thieves).
Spyro 3 is also very good too
I’m slightly ashamed to admit that I went back to Worms Armageddon as an adult and found it too difficult to be enjoyable. I know I’m out of practice now but I have to assume I just didn’t mind constantly losing to the AI when I was younger…
I’m in this picture and I don’t like it. I have Linux on my laptop but I cba dealing with bootloaders on my desktop and can’t lose Windows altogether.
(Last time I tried dualbooting was with XP I think, so probably it’s a lot easier now than it used to be but still…)
