You got a lot of great recommendations already, but I want to add one more indie game: Lost Words Beyond the Page. Gameplay is simple and it’s not very long, but the writing is excellent.

You should be aware that “maintaining” that PC may be more than you expect. Just this weekend I had to help my aunt because the bank’s website had a “big thing in front of it” that she couldn’t get rid of. It turned out to be a cookie banner that was just a bit too big for her laptop screen, and the buttons to close it were out of the frame.
That’s just an example of course, but depending on the person(s) using it, there may need to be someone at hand to help at all times.
Violations of privacy. Microsoft has that too though, so unless Google has wallpapers they need to step up their game.
Am I the only one who’s more bothered by “wyd” missing a second w than by the picture?
You should really ask the same question - or its inverse - in a conservative forum. If you only ask it here, you’ll get a very skewed answer.
And to be honest, the question itself and the wording shows your bias as well. Whenever something about US politics is posted on Lemmy, there are always comments about how “they” are hate-filled people, how “they” are projecting, how “they” want to rape children. It’s a different expression of that hatred, but it is the same hatred.
What happened to Lord Buckethead?
As a late Gen X, I was completely lost. So, I guess it’s official: I don’t get your generation.
Ah thank you. I was unaware of the matrix protocol.
I’m obviously out of the loop, because I don’t know. Can someone explain?
That’s another benefit: no more meetings.
I’ve been a proponent of this for ages. It makes no sense to cross some imaginary line and suddenly time shifts. Time should change constantly as you move east or west, up or down. Everyone has their own personal time, which is constantly updated.
Bonus: no more daylight savings switch.
I just say I was doing something else for a moment. It’s not my fault if they assume that something else was work related.
He was using a decimal comma. The counter offer was 1000 times more than he wanted to pay.
Exactly! Even the indicator light of my speakers bothers me during long nightly sessions. I want to see the screen, nothing else.
You mean the thing that Opera had in the 90s, and Vivaldi since inception?
It was the style at the time.
It’s a reference to The Simpsons.
That’s a misconception. Farmers lobbied heavily against DST. Their work does not abide by the clock; they milk when cows need milking, and they harvest when there’s enough light, no matter what some clock says.
In Europe, DST as we know it now was first introduced by Germany during WW1 to preserve coal, then abandoned after the war, and widely adopted again in the 70s. In the US it was established federally in the 60s.
This is all glossing over a lot of regional differences and older history. But yeah, US farmers were very much against the idea.
I didn’t count them, but wired itself has a very impressive list of “partners” in their cookie disclaimer too.
I often feel this bot is no better than selecting random bits from an article. I’m exaggerating a bit, but it’s clear the bot doesn’t actually understand the essence of what’s written.
That said, I do still appreciate it for getting at least a gist of what an article is about. And I very much appreciate the people working on it and making it available.
If the Internet has taught me anything, they’re 42 and 69.
