Can someone please validate my decision to pay $23 a year for this dumb corndog.social domain just so I had something fun for my Lemmy instance.

It really seems like you’re trying to blame people in poverty for being in poverty and that if only they’d follow these simple steps they wouldn’t be poor so clearly it must be their own fault for not educating themselves. It’s so simple and easy, just don’t doordash your avocado toast and put some money in your 401k!
Poverty begets poverty. It’s not a personal failing. People can’t make a home cooked meal after a 12 hour shift on minimum wage. People can’t just decide to not take on credit card debt when their car they can barely afford needs maintenance because it’s the only way they can get to work every day to make enough money to keep barely scraping by. Systemic issues trap people in a cycle that literally destroys their bodies and minds.
It’s fixed now. But flatpak steam on gnome/Wayland would display a black screen on the store when opted into the family beta for a while. Stable was unaffected.
You’re not wrong but generally it’s very difficult for anyone to develop financial literacy unless they already have financial stability. Real hard to learn about the details of contributing to a Roth when you are already struggling to meet basic needs.
People think that frame rate isn’t very noticeable until you give them access to a toggle that lets them double it.
Nihilism is for suckers. I’m going to make the world a better place and have some fun along the way too.
The family beta had weird issues on Linux (Gnome/Wayland) until recently too so I’m glad to see this getting a full release.
Why not? My Steam Family is just a group of friends spread out all across the country. Geographic distance shouldn’t be an issue.
I’ve had exactly this happen to me. It was my own fault but it took a bit of work figure out.
I don’t really engage with the online mechanics in Elden Ring… Maybe I should? I’ve put hundreds of hours into the game otherwise. I rate and leave messages but I’ve never summoned help for co-op or invaded people except for Varre’s quest where I always just get obliterated by people who are way better prepared than me.
I take no delight in killing but Russian forces could leave Ukraine at any point and put an end to it.
Backups need to be reliable and I just can’t rely on a community of volunteers or the availability of family to help.
So yeah I pay for S3 and/or a VPS. I consider it one of the few things worth it to pay a larger hosting company for.
unless they open source their code and/or provide some public interface to test and validate feed content
This honestly seems like a good idea. I think one of the ways to mitigate the harm of algorithmically driven content feeds is openness and transparency.
I like a lot of FFXII even though I get why it isn’t as beloved as others.
I’m from the Midwest US and I know there are words and sounds I pronounce with a Midwestern accent but I can still type and spell them correctly.
If’n I typ lik dis den o’course people gonna think I hev the big dumb or that I’m a mole from a Redwall book.
Look upon what thou has twat and ponder it.
Yeah the golden age of streaming has long passed. Now it’s an expensive, ad-ridden fragmented mess of data harvesting.
Unironically Powershell is great and learning it has propelled me through the last 12 years of my career as a Sysadmin. My biggest complaints with it are generally Windows complaints or due to legacy powershell modules.
Performance was ‘okay’ on my RTX2080 but I had to return it because the EA launcher was breaking steam controller input which made it unplayable.
In their defense many people are exceptionally dumb.
