  • Xbox GamePass Ultimate - Is it worth it?

    Jump

  • I would say yes. For me it's nice not having to buy random games for my kids on the Xbox that they may or may not keep playing. There's such a large library on Game Pass for them to mess around with. For me, being able to stream games to my phone/tablet and PC has been a game changer. I usually don't play faster paced game so the occasional signal dip (only on my phone and tablet) doesn't bother me and I can play the same save across all devices. And if I'm being honest if I'm on a decent connection the gameplay is perfectly fine mobile.

  • What's your favorite game you never hear anybody talk about?

    Jump

  • N.O.M.A.D. This is such a great DOS game that I invested so much time in back in off and all all through the 90's. Open world, space exploration, trading, combat, different alien races, great humor. Was such a great game that I never heard anyone talking about then or mention now. The game is abandonware now if anyone wants to give it a go.

  • Looking For Something to Read

    Jump

  • I've actually read the first three books and really enjoyed it. Somewhere down the line I forgot about the series somehow. I'll add that to the list for sure.

  • What operating system do you use on your main computer?

    Jump

  • Debian 12

  • complacency rule

    Jump

  • Agreed. It took me a few tries to get into Mastodon. What helped me was discovering that I could follow hashtags of topics that interest me. That opened the door to interesting people to follow.

  • Thank you everyone for the recommendations. Might as well read them all 😀

  • Is Lemmy THE reddit alternative for you? Are you thinking about moving somewhere else?

    Jump

  • Lemmy seems to be working out fine for me. Reminds me of the old days of Reddit.

  • Reddit demands moderators remove NSFW labels, or else

    Jump

  • I agree 100%. I tried Lemmy and Mastodon not very long ago out of curiosity and now I'm in the process of deleting my other social accounts. I didn't realize how little I actually engaged with Reddit and Twitter until I started doing so here.

  • More and more of these communities are going to see the grass is actually greener on the other side once they’ve had enough of Reddits nonsense.

    The OG Xbox Live Is Back From The Dead--This Is The Team Making It Happen

    Jump

  • This is pretty interesting. Might have to get my old Xbox out of the closet.

  • What are your thoughts on being called Lemmings if this platform becomes a staple?

    Jump

  • I like it for two reasons. 1) I love that game and it gives me nostalgic memories. 2) It's ironically funny since a Lemming is the exact opposite of what we are just by being here.

  • Moving away from RHEL based distros, whats good ?

    Jump

  • This is my daily driver tower.

    • i9 10850k
    • ASUS TUF Gaming Z590-Plus
    • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER

    I don't use wifi however it did work out of the box. The only thing that required additional setup was the Nvidia card but the driver was available in the repos.

    If you do end up testing it out on a laptop let me know how it goes. I have a Windows laptop lying around here somewhere that could use some love.

  • Moving away from RHEL based distros, whats good ?

    Jump

  • I can throw in a vote for Debian stable as well. I've recently installed Debian 12 and I've been blown away by how great it's been compared to my recent Fedora 38 experience out of box.

  • Do you believe Lemmy/Mastodon can become mainstream and fully replace their centralized counterparts?

    Jump

  • Like a lot of people here have already said, I think a different space is being created for those that are more in the know. The average person just isn't as invested or versed in what's going on to move to a different platform when the current is working fine for them.

  • Why all of a sudden tech companies are not being favorable to their users?

    Jump

  • I agree with you of course, proven by where we are having this conversation. However, I have my doubts about the majority of Reddit users switching, at least currently. Most people don’t understand what is going on and are even more confused by the alternatives.

  • Why all of a sudden tech companies are not being favorable to their users?

    Jump

  • Because they don't have too be. Most people are so dependent on social media that they'll keep using a service even though they hate it. Like a drug addict who keeps using even though it's killing them.

  • remaster when?

    Jump

  • So many hours spent playing this game when I was a kid.
