You can also use Steam itself to run external launchers via proton! Might not be the best way, but it was super easy for a noob like me to figure out.

Let’s me play ffxiv (non steam) and bnet games quite easily!

I’d argue an airfryer is better to leave alone then an oven. They turn off on their own, so if you forget about them, it runs its 20 mins or whatever then turns off.

My oven is on for the weekend if I fuck up haha.

Unless I die tomorrow and never get to use all the money I suffered for now to use later.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s a balancing act. But there’s no promise I’ll even make it to retirement. So I’m going to enjoy my now, just in case.

Who’s working “maybe” 3 hrs a day… all the programmers I work with every day are on 10 hr days right now……

But I’ve seen enough of your comments in this thread, so I’m super sure you “know a guy” who will prove little ol me wrong.

IMO, they don’t want to take it off the table. They use drama to stir up their voters. If “they” solve the crisis on the border, now they can’t use the “boarder crisis” as a tool anymore.

Just my guess.

I too was playing by the rules with premium for years. It was great. Then they gave me an ad for paramount plus even though I was playing for no ads.

I switched to freetube and haven’t gone back since.

They had my money. But they got too greedy and pushed a paying customer to the dark side.

Even more, people should be ENCOURAGED to change. One thing that most politicians lack is the ability to reassess a position, and come to the conclusion that they were wrong.

If you blame someone for changing their mind on a position, you just encourage them to dig their heels in deeper and not be open to new information and ideas.

Don’t know that I’d call it a hobby exactly, but a habit at least. Finally working out.

I needed something since I was always home and just felt weak. Got a set of adjustable dumbbells and a small lifting bench.

3 years later and they are still by my desk, used 3 times a week!

As a white person from Wisconsin who never crosses the boarder… this is extreme and scary.

Hold on. CASH PRIZES? why wasn’t I told!

Teams actively makes my job harder. The one thing it’s supposed to do for me is help me communicate with my team.

the whole “conversations” instead of threads sucks. The fact that it brings a convo to the bottom if someone reply’s to it causes people to constantly miss messages in other convos.

I have to actively wiggle my mouse and click on stuff to get it to update and show me new messages. And even that doesn’t always do it. So I can’t just leave my laptop open and monitor it, I have to actively go click around every 10 mins to see if there’s a message.

it fails to send me notifications for meetings, and sometimes sends them to me like a hr after the meeting happened.

sometimes I’ll see a message on my phone (I have teams there only because the notifications are more reliable) and then I’ll go to the computer to respond and it’s just gone. Never showed up. I KNOW THE MESSAGE IS THERE TEAMS YOU SENT IT TO MY PHONE WHY ISNT IT ON THE FUCKING PC

The list goes on.

It’s obviously not Reddit numbers, but been a lot of posts about how much lemmy/etc have grown in the last week, largely due to the Reddit fallout.

Clearly it’s not going to replace Reddit overnight, but it’s made large strides very suddenly, and can def close that gap over time. Especially for people like me who enjoyed Reddit, but were just browsers, not really power users

My exact feels. I had never heard of the fediverse or whatever, and still don’t even know if I spelled it right lol.

But I just picked the first server that had a good amount of people on it, off a recommended list, and it’s been fine.

To sign up I had to answer 3 super simple subjective questions. Took 2 mins. Had to wait to get approved, but in the meantime I could still browse so it really didn’t matter.

To me, the hard part was learning lemmy/kbin/beehaw etc existed.

Gosh. Wouldn’t it just be horrible if it was easier for people to participate in a democracy? Thank goodness for them stronk republicans! /s

Im pretty close to this as well. I think if they did a 180, and like, showed an ACTUAL attempt to right the ship, I would consider going back via Apollo.

But that said, I’ve been using Lemmy this week, and out of curiosity I’ve been comparing it with my reddit feed at the end of the day, and yeah. I really haven’t missed out on anything important.

I mostly used Reddit as a way to waste time, or get info on the latest big things, like all the Trump stuff for example, and Lemmy is doing just fine getting me that kind of info.

I couldn’t figure out which brand of crackers was so invested in Reddit to demand ransom lol. Ritz means business apparently.

My rent was gonna go up $300, so that made it pretty easy as well haha. (I woulda stayed renting too if it had been cheaper /month)

The only reason I got away from renting, even with the interest, was that it was still gonna be $100 cheaper, except +1 bed +1 bath and I actually OWN it.

Plus, with my loan the interest rate can’t go any higher, but can be refinanced if things go lower. So since I was basically break even on the current interest, I decided to take it.

Apollo since day one. When I searched for an app originally, I thought it WAS the official app lol. Now that they’re gone, I’m gone.
