MacGyver.
Yeah yeah, that one episode with the fire ants (S01E05) and the other one with the fast aging scientist (S03E11) gave me nightmares as a kid.
I should try to watch them today just to see how cool was the young O’Neill with two L.

The fediverse community is !tipiak@anarchist.nexus
Tipiak is a kinda slang way of saying pirate. It comes from an old tv ad from a food company named Tipiak. 3 old grandma screamed “pirate !” after discovering that the food tastes the same as their own secret family recipe (supposedly). It became sort of a meme and is used to say pirate. As the French language is not difficult enough for our English neighbours, we started to conjugate the word: Ce soir je vais tipiaker ce film (tonight I’m going to pirate (download) that film).
The same word is used in the answer from @obercail@jlai.lu with even a new variant: Tipiakeries (pirate thingy)
The two main French torrents tracker (private tracker) are:
In French it’s like in Italian, ‘j’ai quatorze ans’ (I have 14 years).
Sometimes people are saying their next age, ’ je vais sur mes quinze ans’ (I am going to my 15 years).
Officially it is Meta. Facebook is owned by Meta but the Quest headset is not a Facebook product. I get it, it’s easier to say Facebook for everything owned by Zuk, like saying Google for Youtube instead of Alphabet.
But it is not precise nor true and plenty of comments here are saying “just leave Facebook” while OP did not post about Facebook nor having a social media account there.
And TBH, I think all VR headset are kinda ugly, it’s either big rectangle brick on your head or big round brick on your head.
Because it is not a post about Facebook but about the VR Headset Quest 2 and/or 3.
Sadly, the Meta Quest is kind of the best deal in the PC VR world.


What do you mean?
To me the problem would be modifying the lifetime pass or simply removing it (for new customers) in favor of a fucking subscription only.


I have chosen the easy way and went from too many every day to no alcohol at all. It’s been around a year now and I am going to double that number.
Kudos to you, setting limits feels way harder than getting to zero as, to me, zero means not thinking about it at all.
If you managed to keep those rules for 3 years that’s a good job, it needs a lot of will to not use any downside of life to break the rule.


Yeah, but Xplane 12 does work natively and perfectly on Linux and MacOS. So there’s that.
But I guess if you start adding several joysticks (minimum of 3 for an aircraft, joystick or yoke, rudder, throttle quadrant) with assorted softwares it becomes a bit of a headache and most probably it won’t be 3 joysticks from the same vendor.
And today we have the Chinese winwings that makes full glareshield and mcdu at acceptable prices https://eu.winwingsim.com/view/goods-details.html?id=925 so that’s another software to configure.
And all of that is only for one aircraft type (Airbus in my example) 😅


I am so yes it’s probably why.
The iso from massgrave was made with Rufus that can disable the unnecessary requirements and force creation of a local account instead of windows live 🖕
Then activated and lightly debloated with powershell. That makes windows usable for what I need it to, just launching games.
Everything else is done on a minisforum Linux or framework Linux (even sometimes gaming on it when I’m not at home).


I am 99% Tumbleweed except my gaming PC which is still on Win11 (but I haven’t seen any bloat on it, no ads in winkey menu etc).
I am a huge flight simmer and, besides Xplane, MSFS has Microsoft in its name but the problem is more about the tons of tools around the simulator rather than the sim (aircraft, peripherals, maps&nav, ATC, job manager etc). MSFS do run on proton, but plenty of background tools don’t 😔


Half of those are Norman Reedus in Death Stranding 2.
Root beer also turned out to be a disappointment.
First time I went to the US at around 16 I found a vending machine with Root Beer. I thought that I found a way to rig the system and buy beer at 16 (like we do in Europe).
Well nope, root beer is not beer…

Boar and chicken like in Astérix. The way they can easily eat a chicken wing that have only a big bone in the middle always made me jealous.
As much as I want, we divorced.
I use this for KDE tilling https://github.com/anametologin/krohnkite
Edit: It is the active fork of krohnkite, the official repo is dead since 2022.


If I remember correctly it was for the structural organization. Creating channels and topics, marking them done and stuff like that.
A kind of open Slack, more designed for projects or companies organized comms rather than just chatting.
This problem did not impact the 787, supposedly, but it does look there’s a lot of cracks on that wing paint.


Yep, I didn’t join as I am only there for the general shit talking and not participating in any constructive or useful conversations (it’s a way of life) but Camus, Snoopy, Anansi, THE meerkat and probably others are participating with you on the piefed zulip and codeberg.
The jlailu matrix is still open but inactive and left to slowly wither and die, every sidebars are now linked to the zulip server instead of matrix.


Dunno I am not administrating it so I didn’t checked. We got the sponsorship tiers as a lemmy/piefed instance is an open source project https://zulip.com/help/self-hosted-billing#free-community-plan
I believe Rimu (piefed dev) also got the sponsorship.
I plan on using it for personal business projects (self hosted or not, it is not defined yet) to organize comms and plans in topics. But it’s a small team of way less than 10 and if it grows bigger than that it will means we have du money to upgrade (it won’t be eligible for sponsorship tho).
We (French speaking peoples) have several instances, the one I’m writing from is probably the most active on lemmy, the others are on piefed.
I’d say if you see a lot of them it’s probably because of your language settings or because of those German instance settings.
I had to block several of their communities as I don’t have German selected in my languages but they still show on all (and in German, not English posts hosted on a German instance), so they were just badly setup. Maybe it changed tho, I haven’t updated my blacklist in a while.
