People valuing diamonds more than other gems has always seemed so weird to me. If someone is ever proposing to me they had better get something fun and colorful and reasonably priced instead of a boring clear diamond

2·11 days agoIf they’re launched through steam the sandboxing will likely prevent access to the place the symlink points to, I’ve encountered that before trying to do similar things
I’ve tried others but I only really like eternity. I guess I could try to maintain it myself but I don’t like android development
Yeah, I used Infinity for reddit but then they had to start charging for use because of the API pricing so I moved to Eternity which is a fork of Infinity for lemmy. Problem is, Eternity doesn’t seem to be maintained anymore so when it stops working with some lemmy update I guess I’ll just have to go back to entertaining myself with simon tatham’s portable puzzle collection or something
Do you think every Russian or every American is just able to leave the country as soon as they realize the awful things their government is doing? People don’t choose where to be born. Whether I was going to be Swiss or American was a decision made before I was born that if I had any say in would probably have gone the other way
Fine, it’s discriminating against people based on national origin. Whatever you call it it’s stupid
what? no one reasonable is saying all russians are bad or all americans are bad. being born in a country does not automatically make you a fan of what their military does, that’s just racist
Never been in one but they definitely seem nice. driving any 90s/2000s sedan would definitely make me like a date better, especially given how many people I know drive horrible modern SUVs
I mean yeah I know they’re better, I run lineage os, but it still is just another android distribution, not a real android alternative. I feel like the people who just want safer android are going to be confused by them being called “alternatives” and the people who want an alternative know that they aren’t really alternatives.
Yeah, plus all the android alternatives are just different android distributions.
I need this
awwww, did they hurt your poor computer’s feelings?

Technology@lemmy.world•Sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that! PCs refuse to shut down after Microsoft patchEnglish
222·1 month agomodern windows tries to trick you into not doing that. if you hold for a little bit it turns the screen off so you think it’s turned off when it really hasn’t, then if you hold a little longer it turns the screen back on and tells you to please stop holding the power button, then finally a little after that the computer actually turns off. why the hardware even makes that possible is beyond me
It’s so much better than I expected. Obviously not as much content as vintage story or minecraft but it’s brand new so that’s expected.

Technology@lemmy.world•Discord in discussions of going Public Trading, economics expert discusses how that might change thingsEnglish
15·2 months agoI use both matrix and discord regularly and matrix is nowhere near a viable alternative for discord, the way they work is just too different. The only real alternative I’ve been able to find is guilded but it’s no better than discord since it’s still completely centralized and closed source
Interesting, I’m not sure I fully believe what either side is saying but it does sound believable that what’s going on is being exaggerated.
Are the uyghurs secretly huge capitalists or something? I’m capable of disliking both US genocides and Chinese genocides at the same time
