In OPs case, I’d recommend groups that kind of cater to outcasts. I met most of my current friends through joining the local atheist group. Atheism, Satanism, humanism, whatever flavor suits best will probably have some furry friendly people at least. And then there’s usually kink groups and polyamory groups (even if you’re not poly just say you’re wanting to meet new people and you’ll be in a D&D campaign within an hour or so).
Farming? Really? A xenomorph of your talents?
My cat has hyperthyroidism and needs a pill twice a day. So I feed her 1/4 of a large can of wet food twice a day with the crushed pill mixed in. It’s just enough that she always finishes all of it so she gets all of her meds. And then always kibble out for snacking. Mostly snacking for her.
Enshitification of all the things.
This is it. It’s why seats/stools look nice but feel uncomfortable after 20 or so minutes.
I assume you’re referring to the clay litter? You probably just want an air purifier. You will have litter smell and dust for a short time is all. The one problem, is that the fine clay dust will make mincemeat out of most purifiers. You’ll want a good one with easily replaceable filters or easy to clean filters. If they’re replaceable, cost is also a factor. Or, you can get two furnace filters and rubber band it onto either side of a box fan and use a smart plug to run it now and then.
No this is the find out stage.
I kind of figured it was implied but eh. Some things don’t land.
You have a point, but when I was a kid we at least made sure the slang came from black people first. I don’t think anything good can come from white kids out there making up words.
Inside every Texan is 30-50 feral hogs…
You can run your Jellyfin connection inside of Kodi which has a ton of configuration options like the volume control.
I’ve been pretty excited about what I’ve been seeing from Affinity. You’re right, they’re not there yet. But they’re closer than anyone. They need more money and time and they will hopefully get there.
I want to point out, because I see this chart or something like it a lot. Adobe has an absolute monopoly in the professional design space. None of these programs can remotely come close to the creative suite if you’re doing more than tinkering. If you’re making memes or doing some personal image manipulation, you can get by with GIMP or something. If you’re creating professional art or creating files for print or publication, you need Adobe. It’s scary that one corporation holds so much sway over an entire industry but they definitely do.
Too fucking late. I’ve already installed Bluefin on two machines and Bazzite on my gaming machine. I’m not going back.
I’m not sure it’s going to be that. That was the model for the last wave of tech advancement layoffs and job replacements. This one is going to be so much dumber.
It’s no secret that most companies are stagnant or losing money right now across the board. For many reasons, disposable income is way down, COVID mentality change (people decided they wanted to live instead of just consume), and products have just been getting worse. So, CEOs are using AI to replace jobs that AI cannot yet replace. It immediately makes their bottom line look better for investors while doing nothing useful. This will bite them in the ass soon but they’ll say AI was oversold and it’s not their fault. Meanwhile, they look like the nothing they’re doing to improve their company is working and will survive another day.
Great reference. Also, you can do gifs in Lemmy. Not sure if everyone knows that or not.
Do they seriously think an extremely liberal, gay as hell power bottom cannot out-fart almost anyone on the planet?
Damn, Thanos! We are overpopulated, I agree. But human numbers have always (and I do mean always, as long as we’ve been able to track it) adjusted to the sustainability of their environment given all but the most dire of economic factors that might affect that. Right now, we’re seeing a rapid decline in children being born throughout the world. Just because it doesn’t happen on a particular time table doesn’t mean it’s not correcting itself.
I didn’t see anyone saying that but the correct response is: in the next billing cycle we’re going to start charging X amount per month for X amount of traffic or we have to bump you to to the next tier.
If things are so dire that the traffic is causing problems the correct response is to throttle certain domain traffic until it gets figured out in some way.
Pay X amount in 24 hours or we remove you entirely is extortion.
Obviously we movie goers aren’t making the kinds of movies we want to see. We need to be the change and be the movie makers which we have no experience, skill or possibility of being. It’s so simple that it’s fucking crazy.
