There is no world in which the barely marginal convenience outweighs the additional cost (and near certain privacy invasion of a microphone equipped dryer).

I’m fairly sure the update cadence is set by the game dev/publisher, not GoG.

Then get a laptop and a phone. No one needs a tablet.

I’d look more into your data connection first. WiFi and Cell Data. That seems to be the primary source of delayed notifications in my personal experience.

OP said jack shit about the US.

Wow, what a surprise. This is my surprised face. The character they’ve been assassinating for use as fap bait for ages gets an honest to god fetish comic.

I had thought that the general consensus online from the moment of the announcement was that this was pretty clearly fetish material, but I guess a site named “Batman News” has to maintain an absolutely absurd level of “benefit of the doubt” lest they drive away their readers.

Looks good on you! Life’s too short to be uncomfortable with whatever/whoever you want to be.

Buddy, they already skipped those ones. I can dream though. Those were jank but had charm.

No, because you can literally look this shit up, or talk to most hiring managers or business owners.

Surely if that was how it worked then someone would have posted the documents, or emails, or any sort of paper trail. Come on, we’re all waiting.

There’s some more games that benefit from the extra power, like Smash Bros.

And if you’re interested in emulating older systems on it, you’ll need the extra power.

Or speed. Some of the homebrew mods are ridiculous.

Thanks! You want some glue? I brought extra!

XCom and XCom 2 can be played entirely with the mouse. Minor typing if you want to name your soldiers, but nothing requires quick reflexes. Everything is turn based.

There’s an older breakout style game on steam called Shatter that can be played entirely with the mouse and has a banger soundtrack and neat visual style.

Emulation opens up a lot of options for old school turn based games. RPGs, turn based strategy. Any of the Pokemon games gen 1-3 can be played one handed with some clever button mapping. Any game made to use just the Wii-mote as a pointer would also work, but I don’t know those off the top of my head.

You might want to look into one handed controllers, or something like the FLIR USB dongle that you can use to map IR TV remote signals to keyboard button presses. Just need to use a remote that doesn’t already control something.

I would have loved AI to fill that need as well, but it’s not an adequate tool for the job.

Emigrate?

For warehouse positions, at least a decade ago, “hiring events” consisted of showing up with a valid driver’s license. I think they did a background check. No interview. Boom, you’ve got a job.

They effectively have an infinite labor supply and have everything structured to be incredibly resistant to what little room there is for error.

So is this (unfortunately the comment was edited to what it says now after Cranston responded to it).

So when someone uses random sludge instead of ink and breaks the printer they can point at that as the cause.

It’s basic CYA. They’ll let you do whatever you want, but if something goes wrong and it breaks then you’re on your own.

This looks like a “joke” gift. Why would any company have this printed on metal and then poorly embossed?

This is repugnant, but it reminds me so much of the joke signs about unattended children being sold that I have a hard time believing it is serious. Again, just vile, but it being embossed metal makes it a little too “wacky” to me.

Lemmy is small and still somewhat insular, so certain topics tend to get more content than others. You can solve that issue by blocking what you don’t want to see (by community or by user), and most importantly: participate by posting content yourself.

We don’t have anywhere near the amount of users that you can treat this place entirely like reddit and just expect the content to just come to you.

Edit: Also, if you don’t like how a community is run here, there’s most lilely another version of it on another instance with different community mods. There’s a ton of “ask lemmy” communities out there if you don’t like lemmy.ml’s moderation style.

The tradeoff for no ads and no corporate incentives is that you have to put in just a little bit more personal effort to curate the experience you want.
