A decade ago you tried Linux and it was hard, try again or butt out. Windows has become even more of a privacy violating, data snorting, market manipulating whore in that time and it will not stop.
I'll bet they roll out subscription based drivers before you make a legitimate atempt.
Is it all in your browser, because pretty much everything is a web app now.
Stop subsidizing oil and gas, in 2024 Canada handed over 29 BILLION to the oil and gas industry. It needs to stop now. After more than a century of industrial scale operation, if oil and gas can not operate without subsidies then maybe they are a failure as a business and they should be allowed to collapse.
30 Billion could provide a lot of healthcare, public transit, and affordable housing.
If the liberal government wants to spend 9B on defense I am all for it provided it comes from Canada's industrial scale parasites.
There was at least one firearm banned in Canada, the all black metal and plastic variant, who's wood stock counterpart was permitted. It was a jab at the smooth brain, black guns are scary, policy makers we have.
I keep reading about how shocked Canada is by this behaviour, who didn't see this coming?
We have always been on the shit end of the trading stick. We sell energy at a huge discount, we sell petroleum at a discount, we sell lumber at a discount but we have always paid a premium for US imports. Fuck 'em, I'm tired of "the greatest country in the world" getting a deal because our politicians have been kissing their ass for decades.
Canada should be focused on subsidizing domestic prices by making trade agreements where we don't loose money,
Making driving less convenient (in the eyes of drivers) has the added benefit of reducing traffic as drivers avoid the area. I love when a speed camera or construction happens in my area because traffic gets cut in half.
There should be an immediate ban on assault style vehicles and all vehicles sold with black metal panels instead of wood. Fuel tanks should be restricted to 300km and transmissions should be manual not automatic!
Shit, actually I would kill for a tiny, wood paneled, stick shift car...
wow, guess I have to add an /s to this
Industrial electrician, I have to wait until the parking lot is empty before I leave lest the 100th person ask me to put potlights in their fucking basement.
sometiems you do see stuff you didn’t want to without seeking it out
I certainly didn't want to see you on the internet today but I'm not calling to cancel Lemmy.
The reason I know about incest games existing on steam is because it showed up on my recommendations or something once, without me actively seeking it out.
Only if you clicked the little checkbox to enable sexually explicit games to be recommended.
I guess just don’t see how they’d think “ok we got rid of the rape and incest, now let’s go Nazi on everything else”
It doesn't have to be full Nazi, a right wing CEO could decide that all trans content is immoral and should not be sold. This wingnut Australian group already has their sights set on non-hetero games.
Warning there are some tall-ass images in this post.
A few years ago I got mad enough at the temperature gradient in my town house that I designed and build a bunch of ESP8266 sensors to feed data into an RRD so that I could have some pretty graphs to be angry about as well. (As of this week I have also started logging stats from my UPS and server.) Using the minimum of HTML and CSS I threw those graphs, a map of the previous day's incoming network traffic, and some convenient links onto a homepage that I use on all of my devices. At a glance this tells me if the furnace/AC is working, if my server is having a fit for unknown reasons, and if the local power grid is playing it fast and loose with the voltage and frequency (which I suspect they do).
Clicking the temperature/humidity data leads to a long term data page covering 2 years of data in varying resolution. The gap last fall was when the garage sensor failed and I was waiting for Aliexpress.
There are also long term trends for the server load and UPS but they have only been logging for a few days so there is not much to look at.
Clicking the map on the home page leads to a text file containing a summary of all incoming traffic to apache and ssh. The ssh server is on a high port number and doesn't see much traffic but occasionally a persistent bot will find it.
Everything but my landing page (this animation in p5.js https://old.reddit.com/r/cellular_automata/comments/1djwjbu/waves_processingorg/ with the text "Hey this isn't where I parked my car" overlayed) is behind basic auth or better and I have push notifications set up for every ssh login (even my own), in 5 years I have never had a successful login from an attacker, this is not an invitation, have mercy.
All the data is gathered with python scripts and stored in RoundRobinDatabases or, in the case of network data, digested down into a CSV. The climate sensors respond to requests on port 80 with the temperature and humidity separated by a comma to allow for easy polling. The map is generated by looking up the IPs' information on Shodan then plotting the location data if it was present.
Absolutely none of this is the ideal solution, there are existing projects that cover literally every aspect plus a dozen extra features I could never hope to implement. I wrote as much as I could from scratch just to see if I could, it's more fun to drive a shitty car that you built than one you bought from the dealer.
Aaaand I accidentally made the UPS database only 24hrs instead of the 10years I had intended. Lucky for me rrdtool has a function to expand an rrd without wiping out the data!
Using a vinyl cutter and mini-sand blaster I made some alternate universe corporate schwag! I like the idea that someone might have swiped these during an interview before both companies had their 'accidents.'
I was given an Ender 3 Pro last week and after a few bumps managed to successfully CAD, slice and print a booster seat for my phone. The caddy as it was would grab the volume down button on my phone, this little wedge solves the issue!
I found a box of CD-Roms and floppy disks in my mum's basement and damnit, I want to play them! I could use emulators, DosBox or VMs but it's never quite the same as having the real thing, so between an eBay mobo and a box of old parts I managed to build my new gaming rig to cover 1990-2005.
Its running a P3 at 1GHz, 512MB of ram, and an ATI Xpert98 with 8MB of memory. As I didn't want to run an old IDE drive with a million hours on it, I tried an SATA-IDE adapter, it caused some issues during the install but that just felt like the standard Windows experience.
Though unpopular, I went with ME for 2 reasons, the first was Dos support, the second is that I went from W95 to ME as a kid, 98 wouldn't have felt the same. The install bricked twice with video drivers but I finally got it up and running with the default drivers and an 18" Samsung flat CRT (runs up to 1600x1200 at a nauseating 60hz).
So what were your favorite games from the 90's and early 2000s?

Liberal or conservative, our government is a machine for selling Canadians' quality of life to businesses.
