Ah yes, the famously communist Russian Federation. The RF is nakedly an imperial fascist regime that doesn’t even have communist window dressing, it boggles the mind that self-proclaimed communists and anti-imperialists support them.

  • that was literally me yesterday when i had to backup my wifes windows pc. maybe i can get her to switch on her old pc when support runs out...

  • I dearly miss Playnite on Linux. Having Games from a lot of different sources, only Lutris supports more than Steam/Epic/GoG, and it's missing a lot of features from Playnite and it's plugins. Managing my Gamelibrary without it sucks.

  • i am befuddled - just a few moments ago i took a glance at the image preview and thought i saw a chocolate cookie, and was very freaked out that it was a spider body when i took a closer look.

    hmm maybe a good time to finally go to sleep (damn nightmares, they make me fear the nighttime)

  • about 5500$ in 20 years, so

    edit: i've gotta remind myself to not fall asleep while commenting

    first, i was shocked seeing the amount, then i calculated the daily costs, which were around 0,60€, and was relieved.

  • as a pedestrian i have to say that i never use my blinker.

    joke aside, there's not much that aggravates me more than drivers not using their signals when they can turn either left or right, but cannot continue forward, like near the street i live in that i frequently have to cross. since they HAVE to turn, i have to wait for them to either remember that they have turn signals, or wait until they have enlightened me about their decision by making them a fact.

    don't be an ass, use your turn signals to make your intentions known for the weaker parties on the road.

  • That's an education problem, not a privacy issue. Children also deserve privacy, especially when they have awful and potentially abusive parents. Also, we shouldn't embed the thought that they are being observed 24/7 in our children - that makes only for self-censoring adults.

  • I agree that there are vile men out there who still have sexual partners, but as is the case with all statistics, they can be true even if they can't say anything regarding a single case. Those hateful people also are more preying on vulnerable women than having relationships, and statistically those men are seen as not desirable by women.

    I believe that someone who does not want to have sex will have his or her reasons, and even if they don't have one, it's still fine for me, and i can understand where they are coming from. I, for example, had a lot of chronic pain since my teenage years, coming from a broken home where noone gave a fuck about me. With chronic pain you get depression (which is feeding back into the chronic pain, which is especially ugly), and depression, pain and antidepressants result in no desire for sex, especially when combined over decades. So, i am not one to judge someone by the number of their sexual partners, but i do judge behavior.

  • Follow-Up News:

    AI Priest fired for Gatorade-Gate Hired By Church of the Broken God - Maxwellist congregation rejoices.

  • lol i didn't have sex for the last 6 years involuntarily (because of medical reasons) and i still don't spout the bullshit that incels do. like i said, it does not have anything to do with having sex or not, other than that vile men don't get pussy.

  • thats because self defined incels are awful people, especially regarding their online conduct. That absolutely makes "incel" a valid descriptor for people who behave like one - spreading misogynist bullshit, fantasizing about alpha males and jawlines and having a very "black and white" worldview, coupled with a tendency to glorify authoritarian society and being awful to anyone not fitting in their simply wrong pseudoscientifical "there are only 2 genders" and "homosexuality and transness are a mental disease" lies.

    Incel is absolutely legit as an insult when someone behaves like one. The focus does NOT lie on virginity at all, but on a mindset.

  • If you want an alternative to Slay the Spire i can recommend Monster Train; you mainly summon different Hellspawn and cast spells, which gives it more of an Magic the Gathering feel.

    If you want an ARPG fix and have thumb buttons on your mouse you can try Chronicon, don't let the gfx stop you, it's an excellent hack&slash game, and you can put all your skills onto 1 button if you like - i use the middle and the right button for most builds and thumb keys for pots

    If you want a new spin on Darkest Dungeon, give Iratus - Lord of the Dead a try. Or if you played a lot of Darkest Dungeon and want more of it, try Black Reliquary, a huge (and free!) mod with a lot of new mechanics!

    Going into the same direction as Into the Breach is Shotgun King - the final Checkmate. It's really fun and the higher difficulties really make your brains work out. Workshop support with lots of extra content included! Also great for Turn-based Tactics is Invisible Inc., putting you in control of an spy agency which has been hit hard and tries to recover.

    For arcade games i can recommend Utopia must fall - it really captures the spirit of old arcade games, but feels real fresh. You can also go for Nova Drift, which is also an excellent arcade game.

    Then there is Cultist Simulator and its spiritual successor, Book of Hours. It's basically a card based riddle game, and very atmospheric.

    There is always Shattered Pixel Dungeon - it is also available on Steam or Gog, but you can download and play it for free from the link i provided.

    I think your collarbone might have healed until you've finished that list, have fun!

  • I've watched Hellsing Ultimate at least 8 times now, and i've had the itch for a new run for the last few days. I will never be able to get through my watchlist... Watching Nazi Vampires vs Catholic Crusaders is simply great, i just love the invasion of london part

  • This is just wrong. People who are sexually assaulted by women in general do not report the crime - getting a conviction for male perps is already hard, getting one for female perps is borderline impossible, and lines like yours are one of the reasons.

  • they are not rare, but they are not concentrated enough to make mining worthwhile. that will change when the price starts approaching infinity, but it takes years to ramp up production. and while you are sifting through huge volumes of stone and rock for meager results, the rest of the world runs in circles around you.

  • yeah, i didn't want to get into the private tracker stuff, since i never used one before; i described pretty much the ressources you have as a "commoner". I am aware that there are many specialized sources out there, where a lot more obscure material is available, but most of those take special effort to gain access to.

  • If it's hard to find, first i try searching via jackett integration into qbittorrent. if unsuccessful, i go over to xrel.to and search for it there (its a pure information site, don't ask for downloads there pls). You can verify if there has ever been a release of the specific title, and if, you can see the exact name of the release. if you can't find it there too, you can be pretty sure that there never was a release, neither p2p nor scene. if it's newer content, you can try to search later; if its older content, go buy it and upload it yourself (safely!) so the next person doesn't have the same issue.

  • well, it's official: Argentine's democracy is a lot healthier than whatever the US are doing

  • a million young people dead or crippled. of his own countrymen. i am apalled by Putin. how can someone disregard life so much?

  • eh, it was more fun 40 years ago from what i've heard. everything is pretty sanitized these days.

  • funnily enough, there is an area in vienna, austria that is unofficially called "bermuda triangle", owing the name to the large concentration of bars.

    Seedbox: how to start?

    Hi people! I have been pirating for myself for over 30 years now, and with the ever growing size of warez and the laughable upstream limit my ISP has, i have come to the point where it's not practical to maintain a 1:1 ratio for all torrents anymore - my active torrent list keeps growing beyond practical limits, and i'm someone who wants to keep sharing things for the people after me, esp. torrents with low amounts of seeds.

    I'm pretty sure that i know more than i think i do, but i would be happy about a few pointers to get started with a seedbox. i have beginner linux skills, advanced user skills, and not shy of reading manuals on how to get things to work. i have not tinkered with docker much yet, but i'm willing to learn.

    Edit: From what i've learned and seen i tend towards an dedicated server since i might want to host other services for myself too, so suggestions for what hoster to look at are welcome!

    rate_limit_error / unable to retrieve site / "there doesn't seem to be anything here" using mlmym frontend

    Hi, i didn't find anything using the search, so i just wanted to know if any issues are known causing those error messages, which need a few reloads to resolve; additionally, voting on an post often takes 2, sometimes 5 or more tries.

    i already tried:

    • logged in/out
    • with my VPN(Mullvad, on by default) and without
    • Firefox / Vivaldi / Edge
    • wired / wireless

    and before i get into the weeds with the abyssmal support of my ISP i wanted to know if any of you have encountered the same issues.
