You were right. The body text had transcribed as ツイッター incorrectly. It’s been edited out since.

I’m so glad that Killdozer Willie is now public domain.

The feel of Lemmy communities is a little different than Reddit, even if the software features are mostly analogous and there are many Redditisms used.

Your average commentor/poster will stand out more in a small community, there’s less of being able to post and then slink away.

People have gotten used to a lot more comforting features of modern Reddit, Lemmy in both the users and in the software has more of a “Reddit 10-15 years ago” feel to it.

Dear wage slave: the free snacks (and the private jet) are costing too much, we need to cut back because we are struggling.

You probably know most of it so just some advice: Don’t format the Partition table (MBR to GPT etc.) on the disk whose data you wish to keep.

Shrinking a partition or moving it carries a small risk of data loss and will take significantly longer than creating a new partition (since data needs to be cut and pasted from one area of the disk to another). If your old laptop has an empty slot for another SSD or NVME drive you can plug that in, and still dualboot and having the new drive Linux only.

Also to deal with the occasional Windows cockups, just carry a boot-repair USB, the auto repair has fixed the Windows issue for me 90% of the time (the other times are usually boot order priority or other BIOS setting)

I’m already too optimistic but perhaps a more direct awareness campaign on how climate denialism, economic isolationism and anti-immigration stances hurt themselves, their friends family and neighbors, and directly make their lives worse.

I don’t want to put blame directly on individual voters, in the sense that they might be able to learn in 4 years, and “Trump did that” only addresses the symptom of the problem. “MAGA did that” sounds apt to me.

Trump just has to say, “…as an official act”, then he’s a-OK to go with whatever, however unconstitutional it may be.

My prediction is that we’re going to have plaques and monuments that say “In memory of 2026, thousands of American citizens deported - and its the Democrats fault btw”

Any semblance of resistance will be labelled as “radical leftists trying to subvert the will of America”… with how over half of voters made their decision, the will of America seems far different than I remembered.

Well… we’ll see if they enjoy living outside of America or in internment…

It would be just the same with Jill Stein or Chase Oliver as leader, Wall Street will benefit. There is obviously outsized influence of rich people in government, but big money makes money with money, doesn’t matter what the politics are.

It’s more important that A. The US doesn’t put a leader who has real plans to become dictator and the Project2025 yes-men lined up behind it, and B. The US chooses a leader who better represents the national interests of common people, which will not happen if too many would-be Harris voters choose 3rd party or abstains.

Congrats on finishing and publishing your game! Definitely is well-inspired from make-believe play that many of us have done as kids.

That Kingston DataTraveller I have as well and it’s my ol’ reliable from at least 9 years ago. For some reason PCs put up a fuss with recognizing other people’s USBs at boot, I’ve never once had an issue with the Kingston.

It is true that it is slower but for a live distro, install and troubleshoot disk it does the job perfectly fine.

Oh sure, next let’s have an AI open my Steam and play the games I want for me.

Neat, I did already transfer my budgeting to GNUCash a few months ago, but this looks shiny too.

Lamp oil, rope, bombs? You want it? It’s yours my friend. As long as you have enough bananas.

Latest count says about 214 or 215 for the 与党 coalition. Proportional representation also matters a lot.

How to tell whether you are working in a school tech lab or an industry tech lab:

Are all the specialized machines 15 to 40 years old?

Do the specialized machines have to be wheeled out from storage every time you want to use them?

If either answer is yes, you know you are in a school’s tech/medical lab.

Missing @MargotRobbie@lemmy.world rn…

What’s crazy is that it’s more than that.

“I’m a gamer so I know what I’m talking about, that gamers know nothing about this topic.”

The logic is very backwards.
