  • David Attenborough On Bottom Trawling

    Jump

  • This brings tears to my eyes, what a horrific and willful destruction of life. Seeing those poor creatures trying and inevitably failing to escape the net is just awful.

  • If it works, it works.

    Jump

  • I need to do a lot of number entry for my work, and the southpaw TKC CandyBar saved my life. I liked it so much I immediately bought a second one just in case something happened.

    Then I got a Prime_E. I think people over estimate how hard it is to adjust typing habits to accommodate layers and toggles!

  • Apple's mouse is so bad Tim Cook uses another brand at work

    Jump

  • I would love an MX master that's half the weight. Or really just any ergo productivity centric mouse with ultralight mouse design philosophy. I'm too accustomed to a 70g mouse now.

    Edit: after making this comment I decided to actually look into it, it does exist as the Keychron M6. I think I found my next mouse!

  • Working full time - how do you do it?

    Jump

  • Others have offered fantastic advice, I'm not going to add anything from personal experience. I will share this link: https://fs.blog/david-foster-wallace-this-is-water/

    Reading this isn't going to change your life, but I find it very helpful to reframe how you think about life. It deals more with the long term impact of having a full time job, outside of work in a way that worked for my brain. Hopefully you find it helpful but it's not a single solution.

  • House cancels rest of votes for week after GOP floor rebellion

    Jump

  • Babies have to learn to be self sufficient as early as 12 weeks so that they can enter the workforce and learn to be oppressed sooner.

  • Pete Hegseth’s wife reportedly attended meetings with foreign defense officials

    Jump

  • I'm not doing this to try and call you out, but I am curious - what link are you making here if it isn't "sexual preference embarrassing"?

  • Deleted

    Jerkoff

    Jump

  • Seeing the public reaction to some of the military adjacent cases over the past few years has been incredibly disheartening (e.g. McBride)

  • Fractal Design - Swedish company making high quality PC cases and components

    Jump

  • When my Sliger SM550 proves too small for my next graphic card purchase (probably a while, on a 3080), I will probably look to Fractal Design unless there's better cottage maker.

    Something about the way the cases look is appealing, but there's always been something small about them that hasn't worked for my builds.

  • Took her on a camping trip around Tasmania

    Jump

  • Thanks!

    Yeah motocamping is a next level way to see a place. I've always been into camping, only riding for the last three years, but travelling off your bike and rolling into a campsite knowing that the only thing you have to do tomorrow is pack up and ride somewhere is so liberating.

  • New version of the guide for change (I'm not the author)

    Jump

  • I know many people feel entrapped by streaming services, but I switched to Bandcamp like 10 years ago and have never been happier with my music habits. I buy music I like on Bandcamp Friday and store it locally on my PC/phone. Load up and take away as needed.

    Sure, it's a bit more effort to purposefully seek new music, but I love that process. Makes it a very deliberate listening experience.

  • Plastic pollution leaves seabirds with brain damage similar to Alzheimer’s, study shows

    Jump

  • I'm interested in the inevitable double whammy for those of us who grew up in both plastic and PFAS filled environments.

    I can really see a future in my lifetime where plastic and PFAS exposure is identified as causing severe damage to humans and animals. I just feel utterly immersed in them whether I like it or not.

  • Skyrim teaches a Lemmy user about fascist propaganda

    Jump

  • I think at this point it's a lot of nostalgia. But the game does have a lot in it, so once the jank becomes endearing rather than off-putting, it is easy to lose yourself in my experience. There are still heaps of quests and parts of the game I haven't finished. And if I want to replay something, I can approach it very differently each time.

    I think it's an okay game. I think it was the best available game with mass appeal (see overlap of marketing with early Game of Thrones) during formative years for a lot of people, which extended and amplified the volume of discourse.

  • Did non-RGB mechanical keyboards cease to exist? Can anyone recommend some?

    Jump

  • Technically, yes, a keyboard recessed and angled down+away from you would be the best ergonomics. Or tented, so the centre of the keyboard is raised while the left and right sides are flush with the desk, so that your wrists are rotated with palms facing each other. A lot of pro eSports players rotate their entire keyboards by 30-90° to better suit left wrist alignment, since the right hand only has to operate the mouse.

    I'll die on this hill - the generic modern keyboard is absolutely terrible for your wrists, and is responsible for so many people having RSI!

  • Took me by surprise

    Jump

  • Because males as a term had not picked up culturally loaded meaning from those who would exploit them.

  • Bad news

    Jump

  • I finally have a reason to use my weeks of accumulated sick leave.

  • This rule made me feel things.

    Jump

  • But hey, maybe you'd be able to score some valuable Beanie Babies.

  • Unbelievable rule

    Jump

  • For Kitchen Nightmares that's true, but Hell's Kitchen is another story altogether for his persona.

  • Spring has sprung in Melbourne. First warm weekend of great riding.

    Jump

  • Sure is

  • Mozilla wants users to take part in a survey about browser features

    Jump

  • You're bang on. It's called MaxDiff. I use it frequently in my line of work to prioritise product or service messaging with panel data. It's better in some cases to use Inferred preference rather than stated, but generally good to keep the options comparable in "size" of offer.

    I would never interpret a MaxDiff model low end result as "wow, 5% of people want slower browsers." Instead I'm focusing on the top cluster. As with any model, they're only ever so accurate. Don't read into the questions too much.

    Morning rides in the winter make for some great memories, and great photos.
