I Am Disgusted By Elon Musk's Gaming Setup
  • You would certainly not be happy with my gaming setup. I have an apple Membrane keyboard because I’ve played way too long on old laptops and I got so used to them that I don’t like any others. Then I have a 10+ year old mouse that’s just perfect for my hands, I don’t get cramps.

    And than I have a MacBook Air that is connected to the PC via Ethernet and steam link streams the game.

  • 2meirl4meirl
  • I was there once. I took on some debt to get a flat and a motorcycle. You know, because a lot of people die when riding a motorcycle. I found the joy again; then I learned to cook really good and gained 80 pounds. If I don’t spend too much money on useless shit I’ll be debt free this year, and if I stick to the diet I’ve been on this past month I’ll be back to my old weight too.

  • English name: Short-tailed Pygmy-Tyrant

    The German name would also translate to "Short-dicked dwarfen-tyrant"

    Hogwarts Legacy - a weird (90 hour) review *no spoilers
  • My girl almost never plays games. I bought her the ps5 with Hogwarts Legacy. She did like the atmosphere and such, but the story felt very rushed towards the end, the ending was unsatisfying, the world started off cool but got a choreful minefield afterwards.

    I only played the tutorial.

  • completing out this engagement bait arc
  • I am happy to be Austrian enough to know way too many words to describe the act of mating:

    Ficken, Flachlegen, Reiten, Draufsteigen, Schnackseln, Drüberfahren, Gspiatl’n, Beinand liegen, Brettln, Rödeln, Rackeln, Pempern, Durchnehmen, Tschentschen, Gegenseitig) beglücken, Fleischprüfen, Stecken und stecken lassen, in‘d Kistn hupf‘n, einheizen, Beischlaf vollziehen, Liebestätigkeiten nachgehen, Sich vereinen, den Akt vollziehen, Nudeln, ins Brunzfleisch einepfuiteifln, gfeichtln

    That took longer than expected.

  • Have you ever won something? A sweepstake, competition, or other? What was it? Tell us your story.
  • Nope. But my GF is one of the luckiest people on earth. By now she won a car, 3 holidays, a travel bag, heck we are going to holiday on ice this Sunday, we bought the ticket last year, and we picked the only spot where thommy ten and amélie van tass have a show. We got upgraded hotels multiple times for free, she even once got a graphic designer monitor for half the price due to something.

  • Should i get a moped (scooter in usa)
  • Depending where you live and your financial situation. It’s good for picking up girls at that age, or impress the boys. Don’t get one if don’t need one. Don’t get one if you can’t afford one. And if you get one, take 49cc because the insurance is cheaper.

  • What are the odds of getting salmonella when eating raw poultry products?
  • You tell me - my wife got this scented super high quality soap for the kitchen. It’s okay for her but since I wash my hands way too often I switched to re-lipidizing doctor‘s soap for frequent handwashing due to rough skin between my fingers

  • Winter Walking Boots
  • If you ever plan to visit Austria, give the Waldviertler a go. I have them for nearly 3 years now and the only thing I did so far was to change the bands and the insert. For $30 they give you a new sole if it’s bad. Edit: I don’t have designated winter boots yet because where I live we haven’t had snow in years.

  • I have 2 toothless cats (2.5 & 3 y/o) - do you need some tips?
  • Autoimmune was the word! Thank you! Yes, this is what mine have too!

    Due to them having lost their teeth at such a young age of 1 and 1.5 years the vet said they will be good for the rest of their lives!

    Crazy to hear that all of them had the same problem! Send your kitty some cuddles from me! She‘s definitely a good girl!

  • I have 2 toothless cats (2.5 & 3 y/o) - do you need some tips?

    They got the teeth removed because their body rejected their teeth. They aren’t even brothers. One is the result of a friend‘s outside cat getting pregnant before the castration appointment, the other one we just found at 2 weeks old, scared, behind the brakes of my dad‘s car. They’re without any teeth since they are about 1 year old, so we all are pretty used to it.

    The removal is a long story, the short version is that the old vet wanted to sell us special food and inject the cats monthly, the new vet told us about the possibile ways to treat it, naming risks and benefits as well.

    Funny enough, the day they got their vaccines the doctor got a new x-ray machine for heads and he exitedly x-rayed the cats for free to test the machine - further showing that a removal of the teeth was necessary.

    Anyway - if you‘re having problems with a toothless ambush predator, or want some infos due to an upcoming dental procedure - please just ask!

    It’s been about 8 years since I played this on PS4 for the first and only time so far. All I remember is a library, some paintings and that the atmosphere was pretty amazing. It’s not your typical survival horror experience where at one point you just Run&Gun your way through hordes of undeads. In the comments I read that you cannot rebind keys and other problems, this could be a no-go for some of you. Also, forced 16:9 aspect ratio is a thing.

    YSK that Amazon has different prices for different people

    My girl was looking for a dress for Halloween. Yesterday she found one on Amazon for € 35 and put it in the cart, but did not buy it. Today she looked it up again and it was € 50 so she asked me to look it up with my phone with my Amazon account - it turned out to be € 23 for me, less than half of what it’s for her!

    Would you agree that this is a good list to stop ads on the internet?

    On Linux or Windows? Firefox + uBlock origin (there’s nothing better than that)

    On Mac? Firefox + uBlock origin (worse alternative: Safari + AdGuard, since you might synch browser with iPhone)

    On Android? Firefox + Privacy Badger + uBlock Origin

    On iOS? Safari + AdGuard + Vinegar + Baking Soda

    On SmartTV it’s different.

    Hardest overall solution that even works on PS5, Switch and other consoles: Get yourself a Pi-Hole https://pi-hole.net/

    For WebOS TVs use this: https://github.com/webosbrew/youtube-webos

    Android TVs should get SmartTube: https://github.com/yuliskov/smarttube#smarttube-old-name-smarttubenext

    RokuTVs got either this thing: https://channelstore.roku.com/en-ca/details/840aec36f51bfe6d96cf6db9055a372a/playlet or the open source alternative: https://github.com/iBicha/playlet

    I like that Apple removed so many ports from their Laptops

    I got myself a Mac for learning SwiftUi because I want to make an iPhone game. I got myself a used 16/256 M1 Air model that has 2 USB-C ports and that’s it.

    This made me create a workstation, where I have a high quality Thunderbolt 3 dock that works with DisplayLink, so I can have up to 4 external displays on windows and 3 on my MacBook Air. On this dock, I have connected 2 monitors, a mouse, a keyboard, a webcam, still have some USB A and C ports free to use. Best thing is that this dock has a micro SD and a regular SD slot!

    All this through a single USB-C cable!

    I want to connect my work HP Probook to this setup? Just plug the USB-C cable in and all comes to life!

    I want to connect my gaming-PC? Just plug the USB-C cable in the Thunderbolt slot of the Graphics card and all comes to life!

    Oh, I want to connect my USB-C emulator console, iPad, Tablet, etc. to the monitor, or the USB-stick? Or the Ethernet ? Just plug it in!

    Basically I got my single cable workstation, and all that because of Apple removing useful at-home-things from a on-the-go device

    I fixed the Apple Magic Mouse 2!

    In my asklemmy post (here: https://lemmy.world/post/20013379) I asked if anybody could help me because the mouse just does not glide well on my mousepad, while the 10 year old gaming mouse does glide.

    The answers were pretty good and something I looked into. Then, I was just like "what if…" and put regular tape on the mouse, just to test it… and… it glides!

    How do you make a mouse glide better on a mousepad?

    I‘ve recently bought an Apple Magic Mouse to have a mouse for my left hand while working. My main mouse on the right is my trusty SL Prime-Z DW. This one glides around the mousepad like butter in a hot pan. My totally new Apple Magic Mouse however drags like dry-fried chicken. My mousepad is the size of the whole desk, so it’s the same mousepad for both mice. The other mouse I had was gliding just fine, but buttons don’t work with my left hand so I settled for this one. And no, I don’t plan on putting a Trackpad there, the trackpad is below the keyboard (I need it to better move the camera)

    Do you have any tips as to how I can make this mouse glide better?

    Flux via ComfyUI on M1 MacBook Air 16 GB RAM 256GB - a second later it threw an error and died

    Has anyone of you stumbled upon any information on how to get it running on machines like mine, or does it just not have enough power?

    If a creature like this would exist, would it...

    !

    Close its mouth at the speed of light?

    Close its mouth at the speed of sound?

    Close its mouth faster than the speed of light?

    Also… wouldn’t it be heavier than the galaxy itself? So it would create its own gravitational pull that’s like extremely strong?

    Watch OS needs Series 6 or newer

    For anyone wondering: all AppleWatches older than the S6 Chip are being cancelled, basically Series 5 and below is dead.

    Well then, farewell Series 3. You’ve been a great companion since 2017. I will enjoy the time we still have together, until you finally decorate the rainbow arm when crossing into the big drawer up in the skies. May you be reunited with the Series 0.

    Why does everyone hate Microsoft for adding LLMs into Windows and spying on users, but not Apple?

    MacOS Sequoia: 30+ INSANE CHANGES (Hands-On)

    I've watched the keynote and read some stuff on the internet and I've found this video about a dude talking about the new update (I linked it here because if you didn't see the keynote, this is probably enough)

    Is it just me, or... does no one address that Apple does a Microsoft move by basically scanning everything on every machine and feeding this into their LLM?

    Cable or adapter?

    Does it make any difference (quality-wise and input-delay-wise) if I use a DisplayPort to HDMI cable directly or a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, followed by a regular HDMI cable?
