  • 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.

  • I feel like if I’m pronouncing any Linux package for the first time, there’s some tongue-in-cheek “um, actually” trap hidden just around the corner for some self-righteous geek to correct you with a big smirk on their face because they get to feel smarter, which I used to be guilty of, but try to cut back on as much as I can these days.

    It’s a fun joke at first, but I kind of got tired of it after a while, and just decided that politely educating in context and ignoring it otherwise feels way nicer.

  • Also in general, just drive with more caution to your surroundings and don’t go these speeds when in the rain surrounded by obstacles. Anyone who’s driven anything with more than a couple hundred horsepower should already be familiar with how easy it can be to lose control. If they went from a commuter straight to a McLaren, they never stood a chance in the rain.

  • BeamNG actually ticks all these boxes, as much as it’s known as the crashy smashy game. Every component of the car can be swapped out, including everything from body panels to engine components, to suspension and tires.

    The tuning is also incredibly in-depth and even more so once you start getting into the modding scene, which is huge.

    If this isn’t already a staple of your library, I can’t recommend it enough.

  • 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.
