Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•They're somehow always baffled that their cakes are melting
22·4 days agoI’m fine with the tents, but it annoys me that they’re always making puddings, and never baked potatoes or baked beans etc.

TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•random phone find
15·6 days agoI don’t know about Deanna, but if Riker has a beard, Tasha Yar is already dead.
Not that the two things are in any way connected, just that Tasha dies in the first series, and Riker doesn’t grow a beard until the 2nd series.

TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•It's a sign of affection
11·7 days agoI’ve always thought that someone (a writer on the programme, I assume), did such a fine job of this.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Ubuntu/Snap Permissions Prompting: A Deep Dive
6·14 days agoIt’s a good improvement. They needed this years ago (or ideally, when they first started using snaps).

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Microsoft quietly deletes Windows 11 doc pushing 32GB RAM for gaming after outrageEnglish
3·15 days agoWell, how would Rimworld solve this?
- Buy SSDs
- Buy basic medical equipment
- Be in debt
- When debt collectors arrive, incapacitate them, then sell their organs to a passing spaceship
- Use free organ-money to pay off debt
- Use SSD space to install more Rimworld mods
- If SSD is full, repeat from #1
I’m not sure how well this would work in real life. It’s probably considered impolite, immoral or illegal or something.

30·15 days agoYou should install another 1,000 Cities Skylines mods, to make sure you’re getting your money’s worth out of your RAM.

News@lemmy.world•Canadian fiddler sues Google after AI Overview wrongly claimed he was a sex offender
4·15 days agoThat too. We have loads of spare words for everything.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Looking for a cheap steering wheel and pedals that work on LinuxEnglish
5·15 days agoI use a Logitech G920 with pedals and gear stick, which (as far as I remember) worked out of the box.
I used to have the simpler (and much cheaper) Logitech Driving Force GT, which had accelerate/brake pedals, but didn’t have a clutch or proper gearstick, but did have a sort of “up/down gear changer” sort of thing.
Anyway, they basically both worked on Linux.
I use pyLinuxWheel for configuration, but think Oversteer is generally used by most people these days.
[Edit]
Logitech Driving Force GT
between £30 and £150 2nd handLogitech G920
£100 - £150 2nd hand
£170 - £230 newTry a £30 Driving Force GT. If you don’t like it, you’ve not lost too much. Resell it for £30 again. If you love it, but start dreaming of clutch control and manual gear shifting, then you know you need to invest more.

memes@lemmy.world•This one goes out to the guy who said made up British words is his least favorite meme genre
4·16 days agoAs a Briton, I appear to use either the traditional “fuckin’ 'ell” or “shittin’ 'ell” or the somewhat nonsensical “shit the fuck”.
I’d be interested to see if I could train myself to switch to “Good Lord!”, like some sort of gritty Northern “My Fair Lady”.
fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uktoPhotography@lemmy.world•I'm scared, but I'm gonna do it anyway. I'm gonna enter Photolucida's Critical Mass competition.
6·18 days agoYou should absolutely go for this, and don’t let yourself be disheartened if it doesn’t work out this time or in this specific opportunity - that competition is open to “all photographers on the planet Earth”, and from those submissions, will select a couple of hundred finalists. Those are pretty hard numbers to work with (for both the submitters and selectors).
Framing rejection letters is a pretty good way to let yourself laugh at it if it doesn’t work out.
Remember that you’ve got some interesting, fun and beautifully shot photographs, and that there’s many similar opportunities around - which you should also go for, regardless of how well this particular one goes :)
Ha. I think I was overthinking it :)
I’m still on “shblivd”.
fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uktoPhotography@lemmy.world•I hesitated to post this. It's really out of focus, blurry. But the pareidolia seems real to me. I took this a couple weeks ago, drowsing at the campfire.
3·20 days agoAre you trying to upset Captain Picard?

fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uktoPhotography@lemmy.world•Print your work, frame it, and take pride in it because it's beautiful.
4·20 days agoIf you want a quick fix before reframing, you should be able to fit some small angle plates (screwfix - angle plates) to the corners for a bit of reinforcement. I’d suggest doing the other corners in the same way.

You can put a little sticky felt bumper pad on the back if you want to avoid the edges of the metal scratching the wall.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Kdenlive 26.04.0 is out, featuring contributions from more developers than ever before
8·23 days agoIf you’ve ever used a video editor before, it’s very intuitive and easy to use, and perfectly capable of professional results in most cases.
Save often, though :)

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL the word "crap" predated the inventions of Thomas Crapper by many years. His name was a happy coincidence.English
3·24 days agoI liked the first album, but after signing for that major label, the sound was just too mainstream.
It’s a free open world thing with really good graphics - but it’s multiplayer only, and PVP can’t be switched off.
