I loved my N95. It showed what an oldschool smartphone could look like.

Until the N900 came along and defined for me what a modern smartphone should look like. Thus killing my enthusiasm for all future Android phones.

But the N95 was sturdier. I still have it in my backpack as a backup phone.

Meh, the Sailfish guys made the same mistake that Nokia made in not open sourcing their work. That has kept me away from them so far.

Then again their company is still in business so maybe it wasn’t such a bad move after all.

Knowing Roblox it will probably allow adults to send unfiltered lewd messages to children…

And not just in the infrared. We emit very little light in the visible spectrum.

Just look at the Lemmy UI vs basically every third party app. Same utility but vastly different usability.

I got two strange random bugs that became too annoying to ignore, so I went in search of greener pastures.

He’s Jewish and apparently religion is a big issue for him.

Gas is expensive over here.

Da oben fliegt ein Reiher!
Von unten sieht man seine…

Ach ne, das ist ein Kranich!
Der hat ja sowas gar nich.

Suddenly the Angry Bird designs make more sense.

I back up all user data, for me that’s some folders in /var, all of /etc (don’t need everything, but it’s small enough), mysqldumps and pgsqldumps of my databases and the output of dpkg --get-selections. And the backup script itself.

Everything is rsynced to a server in another location.

I want to switch to Borg backup but haven’t found the time yet.

Das lustigste für mich ist, dass das Mädchen auf dem Bild wie ein türkisches Mädchen aussieht, das ich kenne.

For the first time in forever I am playing multiple games at the same time.

Lands of Lore: Throne of Chaos. I had that game as a kid but I don’t think I ever got any further than the first enemy. And it’s amazing! The whole game is dubbed. And it has four protagonists to choose from, each with their individual voice lines about basically any situation or item you come across. And all the NPC’s lines match them and they address you by name.

And the graphics are super beautiful. Pixel graphics but with great details and animations. Like when you get your spellbook you get a super elaborate T-1000-like animation of some droplets forming a scroll.

X-Wing via XWVM: The old X-Wing game with updated graphics and quality of life improvements. Just awesome! It’s still an alpha but basically plays like a beta. I have hardly any bugs, just occasional crashes, and none are game breaking. And supposedly they are already pretty far along with TIE Fighter compatibility. Can’t wait to play that. TIE Fighter TC is nice and all, but stuffing everything into the X-Wing Alliance engine feels pretty clunky while XWVM just works.

Cyberpunk 2077: My son bought it on sale and I wanted to try it as well, although I don’t really like cyberpunk. Too realistic. But the game is great. Plays like a combination of Deus Ex and GTA. I’d say it feels more like the original Deus Ex than the newer Deus Ex games. Maybe with slightly less open levels. But not much.

Limbo and Inside: The games are about to be delisted from GOG so I got them quickly. It’s chill to play which suits me well. Love it so far.

And after 5 months of having your head weighed down by a giant axe: Of course you’re in pain! Your posture is all wrong!

Yeah, he’d have to keep them in his bra for that.

Gotta love yourself. Makes getting loved by others much easier.

Ok, hatte vergessen, dass da die Signale durchgeleitet werden. Dachte der Stützpunkt würde für Training und Aufklärung genutzt.

Dann würde ich argumentieren, dass der Befehl dort erneut gegeben wird, weil er ja kopiert und verstärkt wird. Hoffentlich ist diese Argumentation noch offen. Aber so wie die Nachricht geschrieben ist bezweifel ich das. :-/

At school we had an anonymous grievances box. So that the kids could safely air their grievances. It was rarely used. But one day a note read “I don’t want to be called Willy anymore.” And amazingly it worked. Even the biggest bullies and class trolls called him William from that day on.

If you can’t show the degenerate shit you’re into to your partner they’re not the one.

It did have some utility when you could access Reddit through different apps. That way you have the same “bookmarks” everywhere.
