Centurii chan@sh.itjust.works•I upgraded to windows 11 by accidentally pressing spacebar on startupEnglish
0·6 days agoAt this point win 10 is discontinued, security updates have stopped haven’t they?
I get the hate for win 11 but it’s not a solution to stay at 10. You WILL get compromised.
11, Mac, or Linux. It’s an infuriating move but you have to choose, or get pwned and get your identity stolen.

Science Memes@mander.xyz•Statistically, probably with the beetles. 🪲English
8·13 days agoNot only that, the only thing that makes them spooky and startling is that they randomly fly around like a dumbass towards anything light related.
When they’re just sitting still being chill they’re actually quite adorable.

10·1 month agoOh thank God it’s not just me. I’m literally just killing time on the road before a party and I am so fucking lost right now.
I’m trying to be social and my curiosity is insane right now.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•You're given $20,000 USD (or the equivalent in your local currency) to spend, but anything still left by the end of the day you lose for good. What are you spending it on? English

I think that would actually give me the most bang for the buck.

1·1 month agoI mean that’s the end result.
If they don’t get along then each one needs their own box/pen, which means they’re fed and harvested separately, which makes it hella inefficient.

4·1 month agoYeah, the conditions are specific, but that’s also true for Wasabi and truffles. The big problem with spiders has always been their canabalistic and solitary natures. Truffles and Wasabi don’t kill eachother.
Also just because the biome is specific, doesn’t mean it’s necessary. Biggest issues are probably their immune system. Such isolated things are usually easily hit by fungus or bacteria.

7·1 month agoWoah, could this actually turn spider silk farms viable?
… that is an unbelievable number. As in I literally don’t believe it.
That would be pretty much 100% of all non Mamdani voters according to the election results.
If these guys voted instead of threatening to move, Mamdani probably wouldn’t have won.

Citybuilders@sh.itjust.works•The Siege Update for Dwarf Fortress has arrivedEnglish
4·2 months agoHaven’t played in ages. Have they truly fixed dwarf marksmen?
Haven’t played but I’m pretty sure there’s a tabletop RPG called thirsty sword lesbians that does this…

politics @lemmy.world•The Andrew Cuomo Campaign Is All in on MAGA InfluencersEnglish
9·2 months agoWell, the rules are forcing them to run with Mamdani. Plenty of Democratic lawmakers do not like it. Cory Booker, Chuck Schumer, a lot of democratic legislators in his own state are not endorsing him. A lot of them did endorse Cuomo, if they didn’t this year, they have in the past, so to be suddenly mum and not even a feeble “I support him” is… odd at best.
There’s also no word behind the scenes that any legislators are even attempting to get Cuomo to drop out after… how many years has the argument been that third parties split the democratic vote? Now you have a Democrat doing just that and no condemnation from any new York legislators that he’s risking a republican victory. Not even a chant of “Blue no matter who” If bernie sanders had ran independent against Hillary, would Democratic leaders be this silent? Schumer would be furious and making press conferences condemning him. He doesn’t do that to cuomo.
In the meantime, multiple sources have been pushing mayor Adams to step down from his own independent race. Both democratic and republican (and billionaire), presumably to get more votes to cuomo.
Yeah admittedly I was originally pissed that they completely botched the original story of puss in boots.
But the character is just so good. Banderas was the perfect casting, and you can tell he loves the role. The upgrade won me over.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•I can't find a single decent bedtime story online. 90% of the articles are AI slop.English
9·3 months agoThe nice thing is that any thrift or second hand store has TONS of children’s books, all for the amount of change you could scrounge up from a couch.

1·3 months agoYeah bit what they’re saying is they’re not online. It’s just slop online.
You know, I’ve seen arguments that we’ve just gotten better at testing, and that clearly our environment is causing autism…
But I haven’t seen the argument that the world has gotten better at connecting people with autism. Like, maybe dating apps, online message boards, and video games help people who don’t connect socially… connect socially. So what was previously a detriment to pass your DNA now has a crutch to help it happen.

What is this thing?@lemmy.world•what is this hoop at the top for?English
3·3 months agoYeah, from the pics in other posts I’m wondering if this is just a very old lamp. Following the blueprint of its gas predecessor without any thought of what was no longer necessary…
Like a beta of an electric lamp? Before they realized the downsides of a wired connection compared to the “wireless” gas lamp predecessors.

7·3 months agoOK, I was convinced this was a cop out answer. But the pic is literally the gas version of the exact same thing.
Better would be a shower with a skeleton that turns and shrieks. Then if the open the door again that’s when the guy with the chainsaw answers the door.








Honestly, I grabbed linux because I wanted something that worked and wouldn’t change.
Windows keeps changing, a lot. Now getting to the point where none of my computers could handle 11. So I just said screw it, kept my hardware and now I run Ubuntu
Was not as disruptive as I thought
