Whatever happened to calling them avatars? First my PMs got turned into DMs, now this. I’m truly becoming old.

I keep seeing this posted, but what the hell is a pfp?

Try installing uplay within the proton prefix. I had to do this for a few Ubisoft games.

If there was something genuinely interesting I would want to share it yes. I can’t stand idle chit-chat though, and do everything I can to avoid it.

Note: I am single. I wonder why?

I view this the same as plastic surgery. If it’s for health-related reasons, absolutely I would take them. Other than that, it’s a waste of time for the professionals. When I was a kid, I had an accident that required plastic surgery to reattach my nose. I’m glad we have the ability to perform that kind of procedure, but I wouldn’t support the idea of a nosejob just for cosmetic reasons.

It’s normal for your body to stop producing hormones as you get older. Trying to screw around with nature has time and time again shown to be a losing bet.

This right here. Real-Debrid + JDownloader2 makes for a very reliable and safe method to get files.

If you have a paid account you can provide it your login credentials and it’ll get faster speeds.

Without premium it’ll still work fine, and in my experience I get less failed downloads with it compared to just a web browser.

No, but each classroom had a PA System for announcements and whatnot. It was a two-way system, the teacher could use it to page the office if needed.

This was in Ontario during the 90’s.

I actually started a Cosmere community but nobody ever used it

I would kill for a lemmy alternative to /r/AskHistorians, but it requires a very dedicated moderation team, and I don’t know that the user base here is large enough to support it.

Modern games are far too large to fit onto CDs and DVDs. The Witcher 3 was released on DVD and there were over 10 DVDs in the case.

On Blu-Ray you have a better chance, but that’s a lot more expensive.

If you stick to smaller games you can make it work, and just write a simple batch/bash script to auto-launch the installer.

There’s also a good chance those old Discs you have laying around won’t actually work anymore. Discs rot even in an un-burned state.

Steam’s backup option is still there, and it can break the game files up into CD or DVD sized chunks for this exact purpose.

You do need to have Steam installed for the discs to work later.

I think my brain broke trying to parse the title of this post.

The Beatles are highly overrated. I respect the impact they had, and I acknowledge that the music I like (metal) would not exist without them, but I’ll go out of my way to avoid listening to them.

it’s an antonym for cromulent.

High shipping costs, customs, currency conversion, etc.

And yet again they’re based out of Europe, which makes this out of reach for most Canadians.

For me it depends on what the bot is actually doing. I don’t have any problem with a bot that helps with moderation, provides an unpaywalled article, or others that help the user.

What I do dislike are all the bots that are just making posts from an RSS feed. If it’s a dedicated community for that purpose that’s fine, but that’s often not the case.

edit: I think a simple way to sum up my feelings is that I don’t want bots posting content, I want people to do that. Bots can help parse that content, or even provide context, but I don’t come here to interact with them.

While it’s not the solution you’re looking for, you can always write a script for those commands, and have it run on each startup.

I ran Lockdown in Wine without any problems during my time at school. Given, this was about 7 years ago so things may have changed.
