I am one broken leg away from being homeless and losing everything, and it’s been like that my entire working life. I’ve never been able to make enough to actually save. Currently I have -100 in the bank and some debt I’m trying to pay off on top of that. My rent is literally half my income.

I will never stop recommending Neon Genesis Evangelion, and Madoka Magika.

It’s not “retro gaming” but that doesn’t make emulating switch games a bad thing. I dump and emulate my own switch games off my own switch because they tend to perform better via emulator on a PC. It’s really unfortunate to see Nintendo shut down what ultimately is the best way for us to preserve switch games long-term.

Which is really less because of the consoles themselves and more because of the priorities of AAA game studios

Perhaps, we should be more concerned with maintaining and keeping relevant current hardware, over constant production of more powerful hardware just for the sake of doing it. We’ve hit a point of diminishing returns in terms of the value we’re actually being given by each new generation. Even the PS4 and Xbox One were able to produce gorgeous graphics.

Because our government’s support of Israel furthers US financial interests in the Middle East.

Probably depends on the delivery service partner. They have slightly different hours from company to company.

I went to fedi to avoid big corporations and what they’ve done with social media. Why would I want their platform having access to my posts? I don’t trust meta or any of the other big tech companies. In fact, the main mastodon instance I use blocks threads entirely and that’s one of the reasons I joined it.

I don’t make very much money, and the phones I buy are usually between $100-200. The only way to do that with iphone is to get a phone that’s both old and used. There’s no new options in that price range at all. However, even if there was, or if I just bought used, it doesn’t offer me any benefit to swap. My experience with ios was never very good back when I did use it, it restricts how you can use your phone really heavily. I love being able to install apps from F-droid or my web browser, and changing launchers gives you a lot of customization of your home screen. I also really value that once your android device isn’t supported with software updates anymore, the community can still develop up to date android versions for those devices so you can use newer versions of android than the manufacturers intended

I don’t get the wrinkles out

I think it’s important to question the idea that the US has “always rejected fanaticism”. Sure, our state doesn’t want to be viewed that way. I just think that looking at our history shows a lot of fanatic shit, from the way settlers treated the native population, to all of our conflicts in the 1900’s to now.

It’s hard to make direct “better” or “worse” comparisons between distros. Each has it’s advantages and disadvantages. They’re really similar and offer similar beginner-friendly experiences. I disliked that popOS doesn’t use Grub, I ran into issues getting the bootloader to show my windows drive.

I have a small windows install on a second SSD that I dual boot with. Most of my games work on Linux so I rarely have to boot over.

You have to buy an adapter to usb

It’s already too late, his inaction thus far has allowed everything that’s happening in gaza. He can’t take back the lives that have been lost and the suffering that has been caused.

Respectfully, I understand the idea of voting for a liberal candidate as harm reduction, and have done so in the past. But every time I have done so, such as with the last election, the government causing harm has continued, to an insane extent. Voting is one political action you can take, but it is not everything you should be doing, and I believe in having standards for candidates I’m willing to give my vote. Biden is not one of them.

Nothing. I don’t vote for people who fund genocide.

I prefer the headphone jack is on the bottom, next to the charging port. That way, I can put the ports down while my phone is in my pocket if i’m working, so nothing gets into the ports. Then, if I’m just keeping my phone in my pocket normally, with the ports up, my headphones can plug in without problems.

Right now for me, that’s Persona 3 Portable. These games have their issues, but the stories really make you care about the characters!

I take issue with the entire concept of renting, from the very core. A landlord is a middle-man between the person living in a building, and ownership of said building. The landlord having to to the maintenance doesn’t make living in a rental a better experience, it just means more dealing with a middle man any time you need something fixed. It would be pretty nice if I could just call a plumber when my toilet has issues instead of hoping that the leasing office actually sends a repair-man this time. It’s not fun having to pick up mail at the post office for ten months because the leasing office and the post office are arguing back and forth over who’s responsible for fixing the apartment mailboxes after they were vandalized. Rentals will charge you money every month for a pool you don’t want or use even though it’s closed 9 months of the year. All renting has ever meant for me, has been a complete lack of control of what I’m allowed to do in my living space, and a constant fear of eviction should something go wrong, and landlords that do everything they can to never repair anything, or maintain the property at all. But onto the individuals that rent out a house or two, they still aren’t adding value to living in a rental. All they do is sit in the middle and collect that extra cash on top. It’s not that they’re not doing any work at all, but being a landlord is not a job, and it’s not doing the people living in that space any favors. People can’t afford to buy because companies like blackrock are buying up all the property to make rentals, and upcharging all of the property. I’m not saying, either, that there shouldn’t be options for temporary living, but our current rental model is so very clearly not it. Do you have any idea how much it costs to rent month buy month? My 700 square foot apartment is over $3,000 on that plan.
