When I used Windows I mainly bought on Gog for the DRM-free aspect. Now that I've switched to Linux almost completely, I find Steam's software for running Windows games on Linux to be just about the most seamless and easy to use, compared to other stuff I've tried like Lutris and Heroic Games Launcher.

OP specifically requested an instance that doesn't federate with Nazis, SDF federates with everyone (including Nazis). Not making a judgement here, just saying it doesn't fit the criteria.

Currently on day 2 of a nasty hangover. Sipping calpis to stay cool. Back to work tomorrow. Ugh

I use SDF and I'm happy with it but his second point is that the instance should defederate/not tolerate Nazis, which SDF doesn't fit the bill

I enjoyed even the first season of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, but it really starts to pick up in Season 2 when they introduce Danny DeVito's character. Well, it really starts to pick up when his character evolves into trash goblin mode in like Season 3/4. Well okay actually seasons 5/6/7 are where it gets REALLY good!

Yeah it wouldn't bother me so much if any of it was actually useful, but they all just read like a lazy student padding out the page count on a college paper
I searched for a comparison between two USB flash drive brands and the top result waffled for multiple paragraphs about the history and definition of "flash memory" before finally recommending: "just get whichever one has the best performance in your price range". Gee, thanks AI.

It's tough because I almost feel like I need a whitelist at this point. 90% of the first page of Google results usually read like AI-generated fluff that doesn't actually even answer my question. There are a handful of websites I trust now to give me real information and not just clickbait SEO nonsense.
I'm at the point where I add "reddit" to the end of every search just to try and find something that was written by a real person. Maybe someday I can start adding "lemmy" instead.

I'm using MX xfce to revive an old laptop that was struggling with Windows 10. I think it looks and feels great considering the performance.

Growing up, whenever I was sick with an upset stomach, my mom would give me 7up to drink. I dunno, I guess she figured the carbonation would help? Now decades later 7up still reminds me of the taste of vomit.

The patch sounds like a pretty big overhaul so I'm waiting for that before I start playing again. I just wish we had more than a week between the patch and the expansion.

It's not the True Reddit Experience(tm) until this inexplicably gets more votes than the original

Yeah it's not that I think they're above this kind of petty bullshit, but I don't get why they'd go "fuck this guy in particular".
That said, even if the guy admitted to running the world's biggest pirate ring, screw them anyway

Somehow even eggs managed to get expensive :(

and this time i'm not even dual booting.
I'm so close to doing the same thing. We're at the point where proton compatibility is good enough that most of the games in my library work. And even if a game truly doesn't work on Linux at all, I just talk myself out of buying it anyway.
I think I pretty much only boot up Windows once every few weeks to keep it updated.

I really like the tiling but I'm getting a bit tired of GNOME.

There was also a bug where some communities would have @instancename even on their home instance, like lemmy.world/c/asklemmy@lemmy.world. It would continue to work on the home instance but break federation with other instances. I don't know if it's still happening on the latest update.
