Yeah, I’m not clear either. At first I thought the microblogs section would work more like Mastodon but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Big missed opportunity

After watching Season 2 of The Orville I’m of the opinion that Seth MacFarlane should be put in charge of the next mainline Star Trek series. The man truly gets Roddenberry’s vision.

I honestly don’t know if I have any pictures from back then. I should, but I dunno where they would be.

At the time I was also fond of wearing brightly colored collared shirts too, so between my hair and my clothes I probably was safe to go hunting in terms of visibility.

It is now state personnel policy that, for the purposes of visibility, hair can be counted as visibility headwear so long as it is the correct color of bright orange.

I dyed my hair traffic cone orange one summer and asked if I still had to wear my hat. My boss was amused and asked his boss. His boss was also amused and asked his boss. On and on and on until a memo was issued signed by the director of the entire agency saying that no, anyone with traffic cone orange hair did not have to wear a hat.

Only thing better is finding commented out code below that which would actually prevent it from running in Prod. Bonus if there’s a code comment next to it saying “disabled per email” with no further explanation.

Very few states allow it, and none of them in public. It’s only ever allowed in a private residence (usually the residence of your parent/guardian) while under the direct supervision of your parent/guardian. Even then it can become a crime if somehow the law gets involved and they feel like pressing charges.

During my very brief stint as a security guard at a casino I ran into that last part way more than I ever would have expected. It is astounding how many people do not understand that the laws from their home country do not apply in the country they are visiting.

For general use I have a wired Mad Catz 360 pro controller with textured grips. Modest dead zone, no drift despite a decade of use, and comfy as hell. It’s an absolute workhorse and still works as well as it did when I bought it.

If I’m playing something that doesn’t require analog input I have an 8bitdo M30. If I’m not using it through Steam it can be a pain to map since it has a 6-button layout instead of the usual ABXY, but I vastly prefer the 6-button layout so it’s worth a little headache to me.

It’s also kinda dodgy what YouTube considers “viewing” a video. 3 seconds of autoplay? You viewed it. Misclick an ad trying to skip? Viewed it. AndroidTV previewed the video when you left it highlighted for too long? You guessed it, viewed.

Fortunately figuring out what it considers you to have viewed is pretty straightforward: if it’s in your watch history it considers it viewed. You can also go through that and manually purge things.

Of course there’s still the question of why YouTube will so consistently recommend videos that get people started down this downhill slide of absolute dogshit atrocious content.

The Sega CDX. I had a Genesis, I had a Sega CD, but the thought of having both of those systems combined into one compact unit that also could be used as a discman (a really bad one, even I knew that at the time) was so appealing to me. There was one at the local game store for some absurd price ($350 I think) for literally years, and I would salivate over it every time I went in the store.

Ultimately I never got one, but at least I didn’t miss out on any games or anything.

Hadn’t even considered this, but I think you’re onto something. Even if it’s not the main goal, that could definitely have factored into the decision.

He’s living proof that being a regressive incel troglodyte isn’t limited to people who are ugly.

Well, ugly on the outside anyway. Much like beauty, true ugliness comes from inside, and that man has an inner ugliness that cannot be denied. He can do all the reps he wants and he’ll still come across like someone who shouldn’t be allowed within 1000 feet of a school.

I bought a nice shower seat for my spouse several years back so she didn’t have to balance awkwardly on one foot to wash the other. I’ve used it on occasion when I’m not feeling super great and oh damn does it make a the shower that much more relaxing, at least if I can get the showerhead aimed so I’m not being pelted in the face.

As much as he pissed people off I did like Sal Bundry using every opportunity to talk about his 5 touchdowns in a single game.

That really felt like the kind of question someone would ask only if they’re lactose intolerant. “Load up on cheese before you go camping so you don’t have to poo” is pretty common wisdom.

If you’re not navigating while logged in then any NSFW content will not show. Also if your profile is set to hide NSFW content then it also won’t show.

Yes, AFAIK there’s no way to log in on one instance using credentials from another instance. And also yes, it is a server-side setting (again, as far as I know).

Honestly though, making a separate account on lemmynsfw isn’t the worst idea. That’s what I did to keep my NSFW browsing and normal Lemmying separate.

FF games are a solid choice. The Pixel Remasters have been very well received and anything that makes the early games more approachable is a solid win in my book. That said, I personally found the 3D version of FFIII (actual 3, not 6) to be phenomenal.
