I was going to suggest looking up some of the earlier comics depicting black people, but those were the Dennis the Menace comics I was thinking of.
You should look those up anyways, though. They’re pretty bad.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What sort of personality would you call this?
1·1 day agoClavicular on Channel 5. Yeah, that was quite an interesting watch. You can tell that Clavicular has the foundation of someone that could actually be intelligent, but his brain is so rotted away we’re left with that.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Finally, a mystery worthy of AI power!
3·1 day agoCouple weeks ago, I googled two creators names, to see if they’d ever done any work together.
I got multiple bullet points explaining to me that they are, in fact, not the same person, despite my apparent confusion. For starters, they have different first and last names. They also look completely different and have a good 10 year age gap. And are known for different things. But it’s a good thing to get that cleared up.
You really don’t have to be tech literate to use the fediverse imo. To fully interact with it, maybe, but a former Reddit user can figure out the basics in an hour or two
you don’t have to install it because it’s already there
This sums up their knowledge in a single sentence, really. I wonder if they know they can build a computer and it won’t “have” anything on it. Or that Apple computers exist.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What software do you really wish had a different option that everything available now?
2·6 days agoMy filament printer is actually from them. I have a love-hate relationship with that machine. It’s like, 20% stock at this point, and it isn’t the fastest or the cleanest printer out there, but it works well enough.
I’m not aware of a resin slicer made by them, but without doing the research, my guess would be that it’s relatively subpar. I haven’t been resin printing for terribly long, but once or twice a year I’ll go online to see if there is any discussion of better alternatives to Lychee or Chitu, and the conversation has always stayed the same. Everyone is in the same boat in that those two programs are the only really viable options, despite being… not great.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What software do you really wish had a different option that everything available now?
2·6 days agoResin printing slicing software.
There’s currently two main options, Lychee and ChituBox. I’ve only used Lychee (after giving up with Chitu) so I can only speak on that. Lychee has mostly everything I want in terms of features, but customization is very limited (ie keybinds, default behavior etc), and some aspects of the UI can be VERY clunky. And the best part: 90% of the features that you need to slice somewhat effectively are locked behind a paywall. They do offer a 30 day trial, so I have a backup file of all my settings, and every 30 days I make a new burner account.
It’s a nightmare compared to the plethora of slicing options available for filament printers.

Wasn’t the “bigger” argument that it was trans people? And then there was news about the shooter allegedly having a trans partner (no idea if it was ever confirmed or not).
Almost makes it better honestly
Never. Nobody I’ve met with the experience has ever painted it in a positive light. So I’ve never gone out of my way to make it happen. Had the opportunity once or twice. Opted for a regular bed.
In fairness, there was a family PC when I was a kid that ran XP and I had a few games that I played on it. The Vista laptop was just the first one that was mine and I actually learned how to use.
I’m almost 30, by the way ;)
I was going to say, the laptop I learned how to computer on as an older kid / young teenager was Windows Vista, I know those Windows games logos well.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Does anyone else think Steam is going to close the hardware side of their business?
9·12 days agoI’d say no. Small production scale, highly niche target audience, moderately-to-significantly higher than average pricing for Steam/ Valve hardware has pretty much always been their thing.
Basically, Steam / Valve hardware (and the company in general) have a strong “for gamers, by gamers” reputation. One of their methods of maintaining that reputation is by incorporating, for lack of a better term, “premium quirks” into their things (Steam Link was relatively novel at its release (and kinda sucked), the OG Steam controller with the dual touchpads and gyroscope, finger tracking and grip strength monitoring on the Valve Index controllers). They know that the Average Joe gamer will probably just pick up a Quest headset or an Xbox controller, so rather than try to fight for market share that has a built-in customer base (for example, most people that already own a console will just use the controller they already have rather than buy a new one for their PC), they maintain their “gamers first” reputation by offering a more niche, “premium” option.
Edit: Also, I’ve never not seen the Deck being touted as a massive success. Like you said, even at higher than normal prices people will buy them. It would be silly for them not to keep that money printer going, they don’t even necessarily need to increase production, people will practically buy them at whatever speed they come off the line.
I’m sure you could, but with financial literacy where it is, I doubt even automating it at a mid sized scale would be enough for them to cut back on lending.

15·16 days agoBecause we’ve been scrolling for too long.

Everyone tells you not to date/ sleep with Person A because they’re toxic, did something wrong or weird in the past, etc.
You do it anyways.
The meme is making fun of the carefree, self-destructive nature of those that make that decision.
