It’s totally doable. I’m down to 0 Windows computers and my main gaming rig can play almost anything I throw at it bar the obvious caveats of anti-cheat and such.

I won’t lie and say it’s perfect. I definitely get more performance inconsistency on Linux, even though it’s overall faster compared to Windows. And I’ve had the odd game here and there that just didn’t agree with Proton, but those I just returned and played something else instead

Dang where are you getting 128MB RAM in this economy?

But that’s more tha- Oh.

I don’t know whether to be relieved or horrified.

I can’t even tell what the cheese is sitting on. Everything visually is telling me it’s a paper towel and I really hope I’m wrong.

Oh that sounds like a fun mental challenge. Here it is for quick reference:

Edit: after coming back to this a few days in a row, success! I can now trick my mind into spinning either way, including bouncing back and forth in a half spin. The human mind prevails!

Last one could be “look at photograph”

My solution to not letting corps ruin my memes since the beginning has been to not participate in the platforms they’re on.

Once they started making their mark on Reddit, I was glad Lemmy popped up just in time.

Blaming DNS is sort of like blaming phone numbers for calls failing to route. The reason it fails so often is because it’s almost exclusively a human-made lookup table.

Well spoken, FART MONSTER TWO K

Does some sleuthing on Internet Archive and looks like someone parked it for a while and later gave up on it. Sadly doesn’t seem to have a period of time with the actual meme.

Obviously video games are the problem. They didn’t invent violence until Pong came out.

Sometimes the webpage will select a bunch of stuff outside the table as well as a bunch of extra lines and spaces that you have to rearrange.

Not all websites do it, but for the ones that do, this trick can save several minutes of fixing.

The number of ways I’ve found to “win” against the modern internet over the years… My favorite is the trick of copying tables. In Firefox, if you hold Alt and drag, you can grab clean table data to copy paste into whatever spreadsheet you need. Take that, overly-complicated webpage!

It bothers me to no end that there isn’t regulation to shut all the lights off for unoccupied buildings and parking lots at night. So much light and energy pollution for no real benefit.

It brings a tear to my eye with the thought that I’m pretty certain I started the trend of this particular phrasing. I had never seen it before I made my meme and now it’s popping up on Lemmy every now and again.

It’s a sentiment I truly stand behind as I feel the internet should be a safe haven to write what you feel in the most raw form possible. When we start giving up the one public space we have truly left to ourselves to the advertisers, there will be no open communication left.

Fuck the algospeak, fuck the system. Say FUCK on the internet.

This is actually why I ended up switching a couple years ago. I started when Android was balls-to-the-wall customization and there were tons of custom ROMs. You could theme all of Material UI and my phone looked nothing like when I first got it. By the time I left, you could get like one of 5 very expensive phones that had unlocked bootloaders and even those had very few ROMs.

Even with the custom ROMs, the joy was dead. You couldn’t wildly theme everything from the boot logo to the lock screen to the notification bar. It had been boiled down to pretty much the same set of customizations as the iPhone and the iPhone was more reliable. I didn’t want to switch, necessarily, but for my use cases as least, it just ended up being the easier choice.

Twinkinsh Bunk sounds like a great band name.

Don’t worry it holds up. Also a great Patrick Wilson role.
