  • I had a conversation with a friend from the US (I’m not, he’s from Like the New England area idk where exactly), he’s very conservatist, like the typical “I own a guy gun and I like it” type of person (lucky that he doesn’t base his entire personality on it), and even he said that both options sucked ass and very much envied that most of the European countries have a sensible system of voting that has more than two parties, since when one sucks go to the another, and the possibility of all candidates being absolutely trash is basically zero when you got like 7+ parties, compared to the two in the US

    If y’all had a functioning government and something that resembles capitalism (a few leading members while everyone else gets fucked around, sounds similar? cough Meta, Google, Microsoft cough and others) and had some competition it would go all way different than it’s currently going


  • They would have to take budget from the military to afford this, what an outrageous act! Wait they can just defund hospitals and schools even more, but do you honestly think they would allocate even a dollar to safety for their citizens? Nah they would just shove the new money into the military again

    This whole thing is satire, I didn’t say /s since it looked like it’s just focusing on the last sentence instead of the whole comment


  • Idk, eternity, idk, jerboa, idk, idk, thunder, voyager, idk (boost maybe?), summit

    Sorry to ask but where’s sync? I know it’s closed source but it’s the most comfortable Lemmy client (I tried thunder but it felt a bit clunky with how the menus are designed) that also doesn’t bug out like summit (for some reason when I open a post the title and the text above it gets shrunk to the smallest height possible and it’s not readable at all)




  • This, MFers will have the most top spec computer and worry about bloat while I install random shit for fun on my 320gb had drive that’s also my boot drive on my core 2 duo computer with 3 gigs of ram that struggles to run firefox and thunar at the same time (also cinnamon is the best running on my computer from my testing, xfce is laggy af and I’m not even going to mention kde, bspwm or any other since the, either lag beyond usability (KDE) or just straight up crash my computer into tty when i try to launch them (bspwm), one massive note is that I’m using software rendering since the GPU on the core 2 duo is struggling with even drawing the boot screen)

    Literally have probably a ton of overlap software from installing the desktop environments and other random (well not very random, stuff I used on windows before) software that I don’t bother googling the deleting commands since apt installed them all as snaps because I never noticed in my first three months of use, fuck you Ubuntu, Xubuntu and all other derivatives, this shit makes me not want to use Ubuntu ever again (not like i can, my pc is fucked and no other drive is bootable, i can’t even boot an install usb)

    Now just finish off iMessage and we’re done (I’m talking about categorising it as a gatekeeper, since what I’ve recently noticed is the amount of people who are close to me (classmates, old friends) that switched to apple is growing rapidly, and I’m now waiting for a day someone will be confused as to why I can’t use iMessage (mark my words at least here in Czechia iPhone users are going to be a problem, I hope that the situation doesn’t end up like in the US)

    Honestly the Murder Drones “Worker Drone” is an awesome base design (the disassembly drone just looks like an emo version of the base design), if I ever wanted to be a robot I would be that, too bad they (canonically) run on core 2 quads(or maybe even core 2 duos), which I had the experience to deal with irl and even on Linux they’re painfully slow



  • Except I live in central/eastern Europe and most of these people were android users

    It definitely is just a brand thing and the fact they maybe bought a shitty budget phone and then went straight for the iPhone 11s/12s and thought “this is so good and android sucks”, because that’s just the fact the price is 4 times higher compared to the old phone

    For example for the same price you can get a pixel 7 or an iPhone 12 (or an Samsung A54, S20 FE or a flip 3, which aren’t that great considering they are on sale currently, and I’m comparing this price to the normal prices of the other two), imo the pixel is a lot better value than the iPhone in that case

    Also the retailer in question is czc.cz, probably the best retailer in Czechia for tech because others just focus on appliances or aren’t as good (but tbh they do quite suck since they just for some reason have crazy prices or don’t have some things other retailers here and around the world have)


  • Too bad when more and more people buy Apple phones for some reason, well at least where I live (which is the poorer part of central Europe), I have no idea how people can spend this kind of money for a 4 or 5 year phone, when you can buy something more capable for the same money and you will actually know it will get supported with updates for more than 2 years

    Can’t wait for this to be more widespread in the future to the point iMessage will be the messaging standard



  • And terrorism again, just because of that part before breaking into nova prospekt where you shoot down planes (or whatever helicopter thing it is) from the bridge

    Maybe illegal use of drugs too? Just because of the start of the game where you suddenly appear on a train with that really trippy effect

    Not to mention trespassing, vandalism (lol I wonder why did they add the graffiti button in hl1), reckless driving (this one’s on me, membrane keyboards suck ass), use of weapons of mass destruction (the rocket in hl1),…

    There’s probably a ton more

    What? I would never, have you seen 90% of mobile games? It’s just shitty copies of the same thing a million times, hell they all look the same too

    PC games are the only actual games

    But yeah, I haven’t played a lot of games in general and I believe it was at the start of the month I last played a PC game
