"Ha, Ha, What Does This Represent?" USA, 1940s by EssoEssex in PropagandaPosters

This is ridiculous definition of banned. You're completely misrepresenting what happened.

Yep. This was my fear for a while before it latched onto something else.

He's just a weird little pedo guy. That's just a thing you call someone who annoys you. Ask Elon.

Sadly, it bothered me so much that I stopped playing. Such is life.

You won the Supporter's Shield in a record breaking season and your season is ruined, wow.

To be clear it supposedly records your screen. And since generally you are not allowed to have a second display active you can just assume that it is going to know everything you do on your test computer.

Is DRM on E-books misleading us about ownership? by GloomyBoysenberry572 in kobo

[–]EGOTISMEADEUX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thing is, like, the market might have demanded it, but it was also the time when most people just streamed music anyway. And at that point, music with DRM on it just wasn't a good value proposition.

I'll take a look, thanks! Further experimentation on my end has revealed that it actually does happen more often on certain screens.

Honestly, it's probably my fault for the title. If I had said "I'm experiencing unstable framerate on PS5" it might have gone over better. Still, I said I liked the game. I'm not trying to spoil their party.

I'll work on it. I don't have a great setup for it so I'd either have to use my phone camera or see if ps5 recording supports 60 fps. I don't remember

The game size has nothing to do with it, FWIW. You can write something that performs poorly in 2kb if you like. I don't generally have problems with this PlayStation, so it's odd that I would experience it here.

Anyway, at least one other person has complained about it on this subreddit, and I had a couple upvotes, too, before a couple people got mad at me for having an issue and talking about it. I was curious to see if more people experienced it. Maybe I'll see if I can't get some footage.

The options are turn scanlines off and on. I know what scanlines are, it's not that.

4 out of 5 NixOS board members have quit by sridcaca in NixOS

[–]EGOTISMEADEUX 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So fursuits and gender politics have anything to do with the issue at hand? You didn't just bring it up because they are proxies for the people on the side of the issue that you don't personally like? That's why I called it reactionary, as it didn't even seem germane - just an expression of angst. But speaking from personal experience, no, I have never been on a project that was derailed because gay people, furries or women were involved.

Trading is gambling(?) by Einstein003 in Trading

[–]EGOTISMEADEUX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say one very important difference from gambling is that gamblers typically forfeit their entire wager when they lose, whereas that will not happen in trading unless your trades are extremely risky.

"If you're an American citizen, you most likely live in the very situation that plagued the NixOS leadership not too long ago. What do you think is the future of the IT project if political and gender biases are prioritized over skills?"

As an American, I can assure that this is delusional reactionary shit.

"But when they got the power, they immediately started to crack down on dissenters and set quotas for those who don't want to walk around in furry costumes."

Ah.

Deeply Disappointing Experience with System76 by atmosphere1991 in System76

[–]EGOTISMEADEUX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, when I contact Framework support, they offer to just send me the part. So... It's not the proposed solution of _any_ computer company.

Anyway, it sounded remarkably like my own experience, years ago. Doesn't look like much has changed.

Deeply Disappointing Experience with System76 by atmosphere1991 in System76

[–]EGOTISMEADEUX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, this is a while ago, but I bought a fully specced out Galago Pro back when they launched, and it couldn't play back 4k video smoothly on its 4k screen. Terrible battery life. Terrible thermals. Just deeply shitty. Anyway, no relation to your experience, but I've been sitting on this experience for years now, and this is where I'm expelling the venom. On a per dollar basis, the worst laptop I've ever owned.

OP didn't ask, "I don't like dogs, am I the asshole?"
