  • This feels like the simpsons ‘football to the groin’ laugh and obvious explanation from Homer. For everyone watching, they aren’t laughing with him, they are laughing at him.

    I can totally believe this is made by a person, I just thought I left all those people behind when I abandoned Facebook.





  • I’d call them out every single time. I worked in food service/customer service (yay I can totally clean the kitchen, take orders, deliver orders, work the front desk and phones, process payments, fix mixups and upset customers, order necessary kitchen supplies/ingredients, and be the only one there in the evening for when it gets robbed, noooo problem!) and honey, they didn’t pay me even a fraction of what I needed to give a fuck. It was in a very affluent city in the states and I swear, the people on the poor side were much better decent individuals vs the absolute shitstains that expected everything on a goddamn silver platter, 5 minutes ago, every time.

    It gets me all hot and bothered thinking about watching them stumble over themselves as they try to backtrack the words coming from their mouth.








  • I’ll be that guy and say that I do prefer buying from GOG, going as far as paying more money in doing so, so the issue isn’t really ‘friction’ but ‘mfs don’t bother offering on GOG’.

    My hate for drm has only grown over the last two decades, and so I’ll get stuff wherever I can that isn’t plastered with it. But it’s not even a rounding error in comparing the number of games available of steam vs GOG. You’d have to go so far out with zeros that you fall off the page before encountering a positive value (0.00000[…]00001%). Which is upsetting and frustrating, since the other option is steam or piracy. And I do like rewarding developers for their work, so that leaves one option basically all the time.


  • I have a owncast container setup, I’ve used it a few times. It combines a customizable webpage with the stream, kinda-sorta like a twitch page. Hook obs to it and you’re off. Took me a couple hours to get everything set.

    My only complaint is that the stream will fall behind - not sure if obs or oc is to blame. Perhaps my nas being underpowered, though I was testing/watching with ‘source’ so it shouldn’t be transcoding. After an hour or two I can, watching my own stream, see it’s fallen back by like a minute. If I remember right it continues linearly, so more time = more discrepancy.

    It’s nice though, so I haven’t bothered to try other solutions. I should re-test and see if it’s been fixed…
