  • Wow nice! I just replaced the Apollo icon on my Home Screen with this.

    Looks great and feels like Apollo!

  • It's meta. Their intentions are never honest.

  • I went to my first IRL GP in Monaco this year, and the F1s were definitely the "quietest" of the lot. Still painful after a while, but not as much as the other series.

    The Porsche Cup cars are obnoxiously loud. The F2 car engines sound dull but downshifts sound like gun shots.

    I think if you want ear splitting sound levels and variety, go see a GT3 race.

  • All the large moons in the solar system are tidally locked to their planet!

    Pluto and Charon are tidally locked to each other!

    The earth would eventually be tidally locked to the moon too, but because it's happening so slowly, it wouldn't happen before the sun turns into a red giant and engulf both!

  • I bought an AES with controllers, memory card and a few games from an unsuspecting kid in the late 90' for next to nothing because "2D games are old", best deal I ever made.

    I could never afford "new" games tho, so I bought and superguned a MVS a few years later. Windjammers still is a late-night staple with friends.

  • Toddlers are excellent at finding security flaws tho

  • Never apologize for sharing your knowledge.

  • I'm glad to see that the gap between RB and the competition is slowly closing. Maybe it was a one off, maybe they expected rain all weekend and went with a setup that favors stability over performance, maybe it was a dead bird, maybe Aston's and Merc's upgrades really work.

    Ferrari took a gamble and DID NOT FUCK UP. That was a refreshing change of pace, especially after being in full Ferrari fuck up mode all weekend (all year so far?).

    The battle between Alonso and Hamilton was epic, as were the ones behind Albon who held onto his spot by sheer will and raw pace.

    De Vries being De Vries, taking himself and K-Mag out on an open online lobby divebomb...

    All in all, a great race :D

  • Nothing like a few essential oils to retrain your sense of smell. I recommend lavender, cinammon, lime, mint, and blown integrated circuits.

  • Eh. To each their own.

  • I feel this should have been part of my beloved "Trotskyist insults" stamp set I was gifted many years ago.

  • Pandering to his misogynistic neofascist fanbase?

  • Yeah, no problem with a super tight community on a forum. I'm part of places like that, they're great, we really know each other, some of the people I met there are now some of my closest friends.

    I just feel that for place(s) like here, everyone should have the right to choose what content they want (or not) to see in this fast growing network.

  • I swear I've never heard "tankie" before a week ago and now I'm on Lemmy I read it 50 times a day.

  • undefined>Beehaw.org wants a curated community and Lemmy.world doesn’t. Beehaw.org has a tougher sign up process while it’s basically free at Lemmy.world.

    To be fair beehaw seems very different from the joyous anarchic freedom we enjoy here (I've been on Lemmy for a week and feel more at home than I ever was on Reddit). No right to create new communities, registration needs approval...

    maybe they'll come back to the federation, maybe they'll be their own thing. I hope for the former because there is some great content there too.

  • Hardware and software integration are, for me, the major selling point of Macs and MacOS. If it makes you feel much more comfortable, go for it.

    TBH I did the other way around. Ditched windows for Macs around 2005. Eventually got tired of my super outdated macOS on an 10yo laptop a few years ago, was working with Linux already for more than a decade, and I was already using FOSS software for most of my use cases, so I made the jump to Debian Gnome. Everything felt natural. I tend to organize my workflow around what works tho, so YMMV.
