Sure. Maybe if they did a better job at WW2. But I don’t think that’d necessarily be better…

JasonDJ@lemmy.zipto Games@lemmy.world•Xbox Game Pass might be getting a price hikeEnglish42·3 days agoOof. On the one hand, I’ve found games that I wouldn’t have bought that I really enjoyed. Like Avowed. I loved every second of it. Hi-fi Rush was like this for me too. I’ve barely heard any talk of both of these games.
Plus tons of Indy titles I’d never heard of. Can’t tell you how much time I spent in Power Wash Simulator
On the other hand…I hate buying games. It’s a big commitment when you don’t know if you’re going to like it. Most the time I end up not even playing half the game. So I end up going full PatientGamer, and wait for a good sale. (Still want to try Luigi’s Mansion some day…)
And, I go months without playing my Xbox as it is. Right now I’m finding myself getting back into WoW (I haven’t really played since wotlk …it’s a whole different game now). Why should I keep game pass?
GamePass is an awesome plan for people like me – casual gamers who don’t get a lot of replay value out of most games. Honestly I’d love to see similar or competing services.

I love my OP12. But we’re switching carriers to a Verizon MVNO which “won’t work” with my OP12, so I bought a Pixel 8 Pro on sale last week and need to switch over.
I’m starting to wonder if that “it won’t work” is bullshit tho…I’ve got a Verizon SIM in slot 2 and it works fine. Maybe I’d be missing out on 5G speeds? I got 5 bars on my tmo sim and my vz sim…but my Tmo got 1.1Gbps down, and my Vz sim only got 70Mbps.
Oh is that the red hat they are blaming?

One thing I do love is finding a new channel I like that has years of backlog.
I saw earlier you mentioned it’s an Optiplex, so I’m assuming this is an onboard NIC.
I’ve never had an onboard NIC not work out-of-the-box in Linux. Wifi, sure, but usually just certain chipsets with proprietary/closed firmware. Dell usually uses Intel NICs and they’re usually pretty solid and well supported.
Check to make sure that the NIC is enabled in BIOS.
If you have/had Windows on this PC, did it work there?
Does the NIC show in

?Try an external USB NIC. Or an internal PCIe one if you’re comfortable with that.
Alright guys I’m gonna tell you…I don’t use butter on my grilled cheese.
Nah. I use mayonnaise. A very thin coating, it doesn’t take much – and ultimately it’s easier for butter to be many more calories and taste inferior

Most of my favorite creators are on Nebula now.
The ones that aren’t get watched on SmartTube or in Brave Browser.
JasonDJ@lemmy.zipto News@lemmy.world•Midea recalling 1.7 million of its popular air conditioners due to mold concern7·11 days agoOh come the fuck on.
I bought 2x 8000s and 1x 12000 last night.
Edit: Oh, just the U-Shaped. That’s good. I almost bought one of those. Mine are the old square ones.
And I bought three, because 3 of my air conditioners are full of mold.
JasonDJ@lemmy.zipto Games@lemmy.world•What's going on with Borderlands 2? Steam is giving it for free, but the game has 23% positive recent reviews.English33·11 days agoSo…if Steam is running in a Flatpak, and Borderlands is launched from Steam, how much can they even see…really?
I just turned off and uninstalled windows when I got Windows 8 and have had zero issues.

So…what’ll probably happen:
- Samsung does this. It is universally despised.
- A year will go by, and Google will do this. It will be universally despised.
- A year will go by, and Apple will do this. It will be loved by Apple users and despised by everyone else.
- A year will go by and it’s a part of every Android phone on the market. Apple users will accuse Android of “stealing” the feature. Everyone else will despise it.
JasonDJ@lemmy.zipto Fediverse@lemmy.world•lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this monthEnglish141·14 days agoLibertarians envision a system where everyone takes care of their own trash without regulation or municipal waste services.
Normies come in and see neighborhoods with rubbish everywhere, overrun by bears and racoons.
Not just a metaphor, it really happened.
JasonDJ@lemmy.zipto News@lemmy.world•Elon Musk calls Trump agenda bill 'disgusting abomination' days after White House send-off211·14 days agoThat’s probably a side effect of some of his gender-affirming care…probably his chin job.
AMABs getting plastic surgery or hormonal treatment to appear more “masculine” are receiving gender-affirming care.
Same can be said for AFABs getting plastic surgery or hormonal treatment to be more feminine. They get way more though…permanent makeup, laser hair removal, eyebrow threading…all gender affirming care.

Would be better if it was for a one of the April 1 RFCs, like 1149…
RFC791 is the formalization of IPv4 itself. Which goes back to 1981.
Do you expect the satellite to see the whole earth?
You know it’s night for like half of it, yea?
