Hell I’m dead sober and I can’t pronounce it, this is some peak orthoepic warfare.

Melt the mirror. Who the fuck does it think it is anyways, shiny things don’t belong in the sky.

Pretty much this. How many artists did you follow on, say, reddit? There were so few on there, and those that were there mainly linked to alternate social media and just used reddit to get engagement. Lemmy is probably the most approachable activitypub interface (we all remember trying to find the damn content on mastadon/bluesky…) and it’s just not big or established enough to be worth trusting. Hopefully that will start changing soon as more people hop over from the myriad other sites, we seem to be past the critical point for new users, but it just takes time.

I have heard good things about the SMEG fridges, FWIW.

I feel that. All the information stored on my PC isnt worth a fraction of what my graphics graphics card cost…

It’s obviously more complicated than can be summarized in a lemmy comment, but that said you’re absolutely correct. That load management is the reason bitcoin mining farms undervolt their cards, so that they can maximize lifetime while minimizing energy usage.

Thermal cycling is one of the biggest stressors electrical components can be subjected to. Leaving your processor on and at a consistent load massively improves the lifetime of the chip. So take THAT, mom!

You’ve a winning argument, to be sure! Not sure where I quantified how much I think hollywood influences culture but okay.

FWIW, obviously popular media both is influential and responds to culture. “Hollywood” really shouldn’t be treated as a singular entity if we’re trying for a semblance of legitimacy. This is really quickly going to fall into a discussion of the role of the audience and how that’s changed in the digital era (vs. when Aristotle first brought it up…), and neither of us care enough to suffer through thay. Suffice to say it’s not cut and dry, and beyond that I dont know any better than you do what specific impact they have (and neither do they).

This is a real Im14AndThisIsDeep meme. More people have access to platforms where they can share their creative works than at any other point in human history, if you aren’t seeing it then you’re not really trying to find it. That point would be fair, too; its hard to find original content (even more so with the rise of AI-driven SEO). It’s not the trend in hollywood, but hollywood doesn’t define culture NEARLY as much as they’d like to think they do…)

One of their previous attempts was this fucking thing, so at least the one clifton is holding won’t cause the enemies of democracy to pee themselves laughing…

… That’s what I did.

Nnno, I meant “I do not need windows so you can just axe it no problem”. You expressed your reluctance to give up the ability to use windows applications, which is an issue that can be trivially resolved on a device like a surface where you can easily implement dual booting. It’s… you know, really easy to keep that functionality.

But I guess if you really want to be a jerk about misunderstanding me, go ahead? There’s nothing really stopping you, just do yourself a favor and look at the topic you’re being a jerk about. Incredibly niche applications for consumer hardware. Seriously, you’re better than this.

Neat, you’ve never heard of dual booting! I don’t do it much because the tools that are relevant to my life are all natively on linux, but: On devices like your PC or surface (and technically some android devices, but it’s pretty janky right now) you can have multiple operating systems installed. If you’re doing network management, a device that can boot into both windows and linux is a real boon, for example because there’s plenty of low-level tools that haven’t been ported over to windows / are much easier to use from a dedicated CLI vs. something like powershell (or god forbid, WSL…). Surfaces are great for that, because their small form factor and one hand interface (touch input) mean you can get into some truly stupid places and have your tools right there with you. It’s like a netbook, but not as woefully underpowered.

Surface tablets are niche but SO much more useful than the app-restricted alternatives from samsung or apple. Nuke windows and stick your fav distro with a tablet frontend on there and it becomes an incredibly versatile little machine.

Short answer: It’s an early access MMO in the style of minecraft or roblox.

God I hope so.

I could care less about league of legends is an understatement

Couldn’t. Couldn’t care less about league.

But the burning fires of my grammatical pet peeve aside its a damned reasonable choice to not care about it. My worry is how other esports companies will react to this. It’s still such a tenuous sport even with the crazy viewer numbers the League world championships bring in, and if the biggest name in esports is about to start jettisoning actual production staff from the biggest title in the room… Idk, I can see other companies overreacting.

Explains why the cinematics have been so lacklustre recently…

They’re cute, I think, but what manner of creatures are they?

Rules for thee…
