as someone who sees both .world and hexbear users in this thread its kinda funny seeing how stark a difference the reaction to the meme is

do you assume the us military does

greatest military in the world no doubt

that's fine, just don't let that feed into a belief that china wants to destroy the world

i see so many people going "ahh hexbear users don't engage in good faith" and then say shit like this directly after, like itd be funny if i didnt see it every other day

Yeah but my monitor's bent inwards instead of outwards now

💪💪💪GODOT STAY WINNING💪💪💪

Then you leave a .66 in the crawlspace to they dont find your .88 in the fridge

this reminds me of a few days ago where i saw a post where someone put their oc with a trans black sun and said "there's like no trans fash art so i made my own" like wow i wonder why

it's ridiculous how easy it is to use now once you get the basics down. im a bad artist in general, so i mostly use it for editing existing models, but i can also whip up a simple prototyping model pretty quick too. awesome stuff

Ah yes, New York south of Texas

Definitely keep the original files intact/backup the files before doing anything, but theoretically, I think it should be possible. Likely, though, depending on the game (especially if it's a game not made to be modded) there may be specific things like DLLs that look for a niche Windows component or driver that Proton can't translate and won't work.

That being said, Proton is open-source so there are old versions and forks that may work better, GE-Proton most famously. Also, if the game has built-in mod support or rely on a platform-agnostic runtime like Minecraft Java edition, those probably won't be an issue anyway as the engine/language runtime should handle low-level stuff like that by itself

Video game assets/customizing :) I used VRChat as an excuse to design a persona (in my pfp) and I made a game prototype to pay homage to my first car. I wanna do way more stuff but I'm still learning

December of 2022. I was moving away from closed-source social media, and after Twitter -> Mastodon, Reddit was next. I didn't become active til the whole API thing tho, because Lemmy didn't have some communities that I liked. So I made one lol

How to cut a xan cake

no but trans people get death threats from "anti-tankies"

Might be a controversial take, but I'm concerned about people letting themselves shape sweeping, negative views on things that are (keyword: relatively) minor or just don't fully know the story behind. For example, EA was voted "Worst Company in America" multiple years in a row, when it's really just a software company whose worst sins would probably amount to gross overworking/general poor treatment of their employees. That's bad, but I feel like it's pretty inarguably better than chocolate companies who use child labor to harvest cocoa beans.

It's especially concerning when it extends to global/political issues (this is why I said this might be controversial). We don't tend to realize that we share much more in common with people in other countries than we realize, probably helped by the fact that most news sites tend to leave out details or exaggerate bad parts when talking about governments other than their own (a notorious example is the reporting on North Korea . Here's a good vid about it (CW: very graphic) Not saying it's a wonderful place to live, just that it's exaggerated.) Part of the reason political conversations feel so toxic is because so many of us just don't know a lot of what's going on or what each other is talking about, so we're rarely on the same page. Reading a quick Wikipedia summary and/or article can go a long way

I don't think it's just Musk, there was a lot of pushback towards the moon landings in the 1960s-70s as well. People then felt that funds used in these programs would have been better spent on stuff like social programs and improving infrastructure, criticisms that fit pretty well today too. But we could probably have been to mars and back twice if NASA had like even a quarter of the military's budget too 💀

My older brother used to have a Nissan Froniter, I can't remember the year but it was the first year that backup cameras became mandatory. It had a screen but it didn't have touch capability, it was pretty much as you described - only for song names, backup cam, and some other small things. As much as I hate screens in cars I thought that one made sense.

Just like me fr (except sometimes its a twinkie)
