Fair enough, I figured being a Lemmy user was enough indication that I’m a legit Linux user that’s annoyed by this, but yeah I see what you mean

I refuse to edit it and will eat the karma as it lands, as is my fate

E: ah, someone else did basically the same joke I did but they left an obviously legit review, so mine looks like I’m making fun of them. My comment is older, or theirs went up as I made mine, but I totally see what the issue is now, mines beneath theirs and looks like sarcasm at them

I seem to have angered some people, the downvotes are almost equal with the ups lol

Its not series to anyone who thinks it is

I’m doing my part!

You joke but blops 6 is out rn and did this on tiny maps

Its horrible and amazing at the same time

smashing printers with baseball bats

I have years of IT experience, offer Linux support, and am visibly the kind of guy you just know can fix your computer problem (or, if I take my glasses off, I look like I sell weed apparently), and when asked to help with printers I have one answer:

They’re sentient and they hate you. I was trained in IT, not exorcisms. Send it as a PDF, PNG, or smoke signal before you try troubleshooting.

Like, I broke my big office one the other day so bad the tech had to come out. What had I done to brick it so badly? Tap a menu option, tap back, then tap a different menu option. If you don’t wait 3s between the second and third tap it errors and freezes and they have to send a tech out to do some sort of 2 hour long ritual where he rubs it and whispers how sorry he is.

What the fuck is wrong with printers

Nah, i’ll use it for the games that refuse to enable anticheat, and I’ll use the LTSC version whether Microsoft likes it or not

Respecting terms of service is for chumps

Premiere Pro runs smoother on Linux than on Win7-10 ever did

After effects felt the same as PP

So far I haven’t run into any program wine/bottles can’t run. Closest I got was needing to install a second program through wine and run them through the same prefix which is not hard at all

best replacement for Excel

I’ve never met a google sheet that couldn’t do what excel did unless excel was being made to do shit it really isn’t ideal for

Yeah it’s another Corp, but you don’t have to pay and you can simultaneously edit the file on 80 devices at the same time if you want

This remains my #1 complaint every time they send me a “how are we doing” survey

I check, then reply:

Your email app still doesn’t support basic functionality like creating and editing filters, something I had to code for a phone app back in high school

Like, holy shit, the feature exists on desktop why the fuck can’t I have it in the app rreeeeeeeeeeeeeee

What could’ve fit in a screen of text should not be a video at all

In your opinion, maybe

I save videos for later all the time, I just watch them never

Ok, that’s your own bad habit, guess you don’t need to participate since you won’t watch em

If some information is not visual-first, and not entertainment, if it may be important to people and should be spread, it also better not be a video

Tell that to broadcast news. The information provided in videos like this is basically never something original if it’s not entertainment, so you absolutely can find the information elsewhere

Still have yet to see any arguments as to how relevant content on a relevant link aggregator is in any way bad to people who don’t have a weird hate boner for specific media types, because there isn’t one 😉

Because they found it interesting and wanted to discuss it with people?

Just because it’s low priority doesn’t mean it lacks any interest, we can exist between extremes

Most people would roll their eyes and move on

Quite famously 1% of the community are posters, after all. Who the fuck cares what a normal person would post? OP wanted to

and yet it’s being upvoted because “hooray tribalism” over something as asinine as OS (really kernel) choice.

Lol, it’s being upvoted because most of us recognize the sub and it’s pathetic mod and are laughing at being reminded of them, if the comments are anything to go by

this is a website for posting things

Deep, complex reasons

If only there were some save for later button so you could come back later or something

Yeah, figured people would downvote me for pointing out that was a garbage response

Videos don’t degrade the quality of s link aggregator, you’re not required to immediately participate the moment you see it

in my opinion they don’t contribute to the quality here.

As respectfully as possible: huh?

We’re on a link aggregation site, for posting links to things off-site and discuss them in relevant communities

If something is a video or article it makes no difference on its quality or relevance to the community at hand, no?

Friend of mine got spinners on his cheap ass Toyota a couple years back because they all got ditched after the craze ended

If you know where to look you can get good ones for shockingly cheap, and putting them on old beaters or a Prius is fucking hilarious

Another way to word this might be “Platform with 8,000,000 monthly streamers/listeners pays less than platform of 1,000 subscribers to view pictures.”

Think about it for a minute and it becomes pretty clear that shouldn’t be surprising at all

You subscribe directly to someone on Onlyfans, you subscribe to Spotify as a whole and your listening habits help split the bill. If both are ~10 bucks a month of course one is going to make you more money than the other

Especially if they’re a lesser known artist. Even if they’re getting listened to, if the same people listen to 3x as much swift or whatever that will impact the lesser known persons earnings

This article is a dog shit way to bring attention to Spotifys issues, simple as

I love the arrogance of telling somebody what they mean

You used words that mean something. If your half baked mind has invented new meanings for the word that’s on you, not me

You’ve descended into “I just need to be right” now

I never wasn’t

No point discussing anything.

You’d have to be coherent for that first

I said “like it’s rape or something” - I didn’t say you’re saying it’s “tantamount to rape”

ESL or just pretending like you don’t know those are the same thing?

I’m just talking about the language people use like they’re being personally violated by snaps.

Theyre literally just using the words to describe what is happening, why are you being weird about it?

Getting hardcore incel vibes from your attitude, might wanna work on that

Proton is a better option unless the game needs Anti-Cheat, which most won’t work in a VM, anyway

Personally I dual boot Win10 LTSC with fake credentials and some privacy tweaks for games that need to be on windows

Ok, even I have a cringe reaction to that by default

Even then though I’ve only really seen people go “you should try mint instead, basically that but without the proprietary stuff”

Think I did see ONE guy weirdly assholish about it but haven’t seen em in a while
