These kinds of posts always give me anxiety that someone would take a magic marker to their cat for fake Internet points.

sgibson5150@slrpnk.netto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you browse hexbear or have an account in hexbear?1·2 months agoHuh. First time I saw this post, I figured it was bait. I’m pretty sure I was subbed to a couple communities on hexbear. Occurred to me today when I encountered this post again that I’d not seen any hexbear content for a while. Turns out my instance has it blocked. Not sure if it’s for technical reasons or moderation reasons. Does that go in the mod log or somewhere?

Please leave the original aspect ratio alone. Also fuck AI.

Once the Wayland stuff makes it to Bazzite, how would that change my Steam launch parameters? No more gamescope?

Not the most disappointing, but just to name someone that hasn’t been mentioned yet here:
Wife made me watch OUAT over the holiday break. Turns out Ginnifer Goodwin is a Zionist bc of course she is.
Edit: From Wikipedia
In February 2024, Goodwin signed an open letter by Creative Community for Peace rejecting calls for Israel to be banned from Eurovision 2024 amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

I obviously was not able to buy an RTX 5090 today. Not surprised, barely disappointed.
sgibson5150@slrpnk.netto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The final year of the 20th century was 2000 (not 1999) but a person in their 20th year is 19 (not 20)3·5 months agoI’m just high enough to wonder if this is somehow deeply revealing of human psychology.
Ty for trying. I felt supported haha. I updated post. Finally got it on the Switch itself.
I am primary on family group.
And I’m logged in with the correct account.
Logged in as my wife on her phone and the screen looks the same.
We are the only two accounts in the family group.
edit: Also on hers in the Subscription section it says No Active Membership and there’s no cancel link.
Yup. And when I click on the blue link on this page:
It sends me here:
Where there is nothing to click on with respect to subscription. I am primary on family group.

sgibson5150@slrpnk.netto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•This world is turning out less like the movie Idiocracy and more like the series Continuum.2·6 months agoI dunno if my politics have changed or my recollection of the show is just hazy, but my first reaction reading the synopsis on IMDb is “Wait, Kiera was a cop?” These days I would certainly be rooting for the “terrorists”. Maybe it was about her learning the truth? Methinks I need to rewatch.

I’ve been using Aurora which is an immutable distro based on Fedora. It’s from the same guys who do Bazzite. I use it on my work laptop with a discrete Nvidia card. I’ve had zero issues with the video driver. (I use Bazzite on two desktop and a laptop at home, all with Nvidia cards).
I really like these universal blue distro because on the odd occasion that I have an issue after an update, I can reboot into a pinned working version of the system. There are only a couple of CLI commands to learn to pin and unpin the different systems. All currently available systems appear on the grub menu. It’s kind of brilliant IMO.
Only downside is that installing RPM packages isn’t recommended, but I’ve found pretty much everything I need through flathub. I have one RPM package installed for VeraCrypt (no flatpak and it doesn’t work right in a container) but it hasn’t caused any issues for me.
Edit: I should say I can’t speak to the ongoing driver issues on the 50 series cards. The newest card I own is an RTX 3080 LHR 12 GB.
