I also like that they let me turn off the AI results and I never have to see them again on any of my devices.

Cool! I’ve been looking at kagi for a long while but hadn’t bit the bullet due to the cost. They did a month free trial thing recently and I’ve been using it since and it’s been really nice. Think I’ll stick with it.

I really like the ability to make custom lenses (like predefined groups of sites to search) and a built in way to block sites or change their priority in listings. Can do that to Google with extensions like ublacklist, but this way I don’t need to export my settings to other devices.

Game freak still has no clue about doing 3D.

Besides BotW, compare the xenoblade games to 3d pokemon. Game freak just cannot make optimal use of the hardware that’s there.

I still need to resume running a campaign on hold from pre-COVID… But two of the players had a baby. So that’s probably not happening.

Even if you have more than 3 friends, when you’re an adult and you or your friends have different schedules, may be parents, etc, it can just be a nightmare to get all 4 together at the same time.

Good turkish delight is heavenly. Bad turkish delight is abysmal.

Every time I look at the hive guards after killing them, I think how delicious they look.

I want to eat the hive guards. For democracy.

Having read a few “retired hero” things recently, home ownership and retirement would be nice.

I didn’t think I would like it because I like colony sims and city builders where I’m just playing the same map for extended periods, but I gave it a try on game pass and ended up playing hundreds of hours. It’s something special.

Well, in homeopathy, like cures like, so probably more shit.

Yeah, always gotta check price history. Especially on Aliexpress.

Was looking at buying a particular retro game emulator handheld. Black friday pricing was the same as non-black-friday pricing, but it was “discounted” from $300, which it has never actually been sold at. Still bit the bullet and bought it because it did end up decently cheaper using one of their “spend $x and get $y off” coupons.

I’ve known plenty of girls that play pokemon TCG and MTG, yugioh not as popular in my area. They’re just not as visible about it because guys get fucking weird about it.

I’m thankful I had younger sisters so I (apart from a bit of the usual teenage awkwardness) didn’t get creepy about the opposite sex.

Is a cooking method from the 70s really… futuristic?

Not saying it isn’t worth it, though.

I have one.

I have only ever used the Samsung store to install a single official customisation app that I used once and never again.

As far as I’m concerned it only exists to occasionally annoy me with notifications about apps with updates that I installed from other stores.

Nice to see news from Thailand that isn’t about their shitty royals.

Most browsers have some sort of tab search function nowadays, changed my life.

In Firefox you can search them with the bar (I think % first will make it search tabs?) And in Chromium-based ones I think you can hit Ctrl+Shift+a. I prefer the chromium approach as it also puts anything playing audio at the top of the list.

Is a funny joke, but Yoda speaks in a consistent OSV as opposed to SVO used in English. 🤓

I run Linux on an old gaming PC that I use as a file server / jellyfin server / homeassistant / probably a bunch more I’m forgetting, and that one rarely goes above 50W, lol. Haven’t tested it under full load, though.

That’s because, considering the bosses you have to fight, every character is weighted down by their enormous balls.

Can’t speak for the most modern ones which I know are worse, but I was pretty surprised when I recently got a smart plug with power monitoring recently to find that my system with a 3080 (though, undervolted slightly), 16-core cpu, way too many peripherals, eight various drives, several small screens and dual monitors, only pulls 600-650W under full load.

I got the plugs to help me choose an appropriate UPS, and I don’t need one as powerful as I’d thought I would.
