as someone what has been online since '96…don’t these kids realize we were all joking? evidently not. They take it seriously when “back in my day” we would have ridiculed them for it. I mean I’m old enough to see the rise and fall of 4chan, it’s dead now but at it’s peak it was dumb troll comics and edgelord antics. Then all of sudden zoomers decided that our shitposts were things to model their lives around.

It’s like when I was a kid and we had convinced my friends little brother that if he held a battery on his tongue for long enough he could get mutant powers. like no dude, you’re not getting power and confidence, you just look like an idiot with a battery on his tongue.

I have a private instance of Forgejo in docker on my server. took me all of 5 minutes to set up. I did this only because I wanted a web based GUI for some stuff.

Living in Southern Ontario the climate here is already fucked. this past winter was just all over the place. Didn’t have much of a spring just transitioned from Winter to Summer. probably going to be the same for Fall just from Summer right to Winter. I mean we had a few chilly days in August.

the UN? best we can do is strongly worded letter.

they were even doing it this past weekend here in Toronto, Canada. People marching and holding up posters of Kirk. was insane.

Funny thing was seeing a bunch of POC among them and I’m thinking “you moronic motherfuckers, if the cops weren’t here they’d turn on you without a moments hesitation.”

As someone right there in the trenches getting hired specifically to clean the slop up, I don’t buy this survey at all and I’d be very suspicious of any “senior dev” that participated in it cause…where are they? I’m not seeing them when I go in to my clients offices because they all got axed. I do see a lot of junior prompt monkeys though.

nothing would stop me and honestly if I could find a decent and new one similar to my old Sprint/Nokia phone from like 2001 I’d use it. I can’t stand smart phones, I never liked them.

yeah I dont’ know either. looking back I know that the Priest knew the majority of the confessions were just bullshit but I guess we were all still technically technically committing a sin by lying and therefore he was still doing his job.

one of my friends made up a wild story about encasing his sisters pet hamster in concrete after she found his porn stash and told his parents. He didn’t have a sister, he didn’t even have a pet hamster.

the one I remember I told was that I stole $100 from my moms purse and used it to buy pogs and cigarettes and beer. I was 10.

I got no sympathy for anyone that is disappointed and continues to “pledge” to this “game”. I mean hell a few years ago they got me and I “pledged” $200 for a ship that I may or may not still have. but then afterwards I felt like a rube.

So I get it, I fell for it once, but still no sympathy for anyone that continues to do so.

docker is painfully easy to learn…hell you really don’t need to even “learn” anything. think of a docker compose.yml as very basic instructions on what you want the thing to install and what you want it to do. save it. and then run docker compose up -d on your server and you’re done. that’s it.

for example the docker-compose.yml for Romm is like 10 lines and you just tell it what version to download and run, what API to use to get the meta info for your games, user name and pw for romm and that’s it really. Most cases whatever you want to use in a docker will have a yml file for you anyways to copy and paste. you can have it up and running in less than 10 minutes.

The beauty of Romm also is if you have A LOT of roms you can upload them all in one go, then let it scrap the meta data and walk away, turn off your browser, check it in the morning or whatever. It’s a pretty good setup. all the emulators and what have you run off your server and are installed automatically via Romm depending on what roms you upload to it.

I’m Catholic. When I was a kid I had to go to confessional and like most Catholic kids we just made shit up cause I mean come on, no kid is keeping tally of all the stuff they’ve done. So we’d just lie to the priest and try to one up each other with “stuff we did”. The priest never told our parents or teachers.

Do it. I have a dedicated Ubuntu server with a bunch of docker instances on it. one of them being Romm. I just upload all my roms to it and I can play any game in any browser on any device connected to the internet. I have NES, SNES, Genesis, Saturn, PSX, PS2, Dreamcast, Saturn, Jaguar, 3DO, N64, Gamecube, Wii, Wii U, Gameboy/Color, GBA, DS, etc, etc, etc all ready to go.

Don’t shell out $70 again to play these. they’re already available free o charge online. Just set up dolphin and have at it.

I have a PC with the Dolphin emulator that runs both of them for free.

thought this was a very early april fools joke with the literal 1/100 scale Virtual Boy “accessory”

I mean as someone who is old enough to remember calling Blockbuster every 30min to see when they got the thing in stock to rent out…sure have at it I guess. But man you REALLY need to take breaks otherwise your retinas will crust over. Although when you are done playing it was neat to see the entire world in a shade of red afterwards.

EVERY. TIME. it’s revealed that the shooter is MAGA it’s always funny to stroll into /r/conservative or twitter or other places like and then watch the userbase go from cheering to proceeding to consume each others flesh. happens every time. A few start questioning their “faith” and which brings on others to begin to feast or start accusing people of being fake and then comments get deleted, threads get removed. every time.

And each time none of them are capable of taking a step back and asking “are we the baddies?”

would this work? https://github.com/cryinkfly/Rhinoceros-3D-for-Linux

isn’t speed freaks free?

I mean there’s like a couple of ok games there. If that Destiny bundle includes all the expansions and you’re into those type of games then maybe…or you could just play Warframe. but yeah I’d pass on this.

“Some how Trump returned”

Someone read the old Star Wars Dark Empire comics and/or watched the sequel trilogy and thought “this is an excellent idea…”

not trying to be one of those guys but trying to be helpful. What software for work do you need that won’t work on a linux distro?

I mean wine/winetricks is pretty much to the point now where you can simply download an .exe or whatever, double click it, and it’ll launch. I do this for several Windows only programs I have and they all work. And the thing with the Linux community is that there’s always SOMEONE that will insist on getting the most obscure drivers working on it. I once had this dongle from like the early 2000s that would allow you to plug PSX and PS2 memory cards into it. I thought “yeah I’d like to use this again, no way it’ll work on linux” and sure enough someone had actually made the drivers for it. I think it’s only me and the guy who made the driver that actually use the thing.
