28, he/him. interested in all things tech, music production, and gaming. i write songs your girlfriend would probably listen to.

Eddie,

Punk isn’t a genre, it’s a lifestyle. Somewhere in the 90s people, including the artists themselves, mistook it only as a musical genre.

The 1975 is punk imo, even though they dont fit the genre.

Is it safe to delete files in pictrs_data?

For some reason on my self hosted lemmy instance, I’ve managed to accumulate about 50GB worth of data inside my pictrs docker volume. I’m the only person on my instance and I’ve never uploaded any photos to my server other than my profile photo, profile banner, and site logo. Shouldn’t all photos be hosted on other...

Eddie,

Sorry, but I’m not going to listen to anybody who actively and purposely registers a .zip TLD.

Eddie,

Please, no.

Eddie,

Tbh, I think this whole thing is being blown out of proportion. Part of FOSS and the internet in general is the ability to have choice over what you use and spend your time with. Just because Sync is out, doesn’t mean you can’t continue to use your FOSS apps. It just means that we now have an option for people who want to pay for a very polished experience.

does anyone else feel enslaved?

When I was growing up the internet was a place to be liberated from the world say what you want to say, be whoever you want and form genuine communities with shared interests. Now the internet feels like a tool to enslave the mind with identity echo chambers and any deviation leads you to being banned and blocked shunned and...

Eddie,

As long as the internet remains open, even if it’s in our own private corner, then we’ll always have a place to go, even if the place changes. If Google’s “internet DRM” ever becomes a thing, we’re completely fucked.

Eddie,

I’m at the airport right now, about to leave for a week long vacation to Hawaii! I’ve never been before so it’ll be a super fun way to celebrate my one year anniversary with my wife!

Sorry to hear about the rough times OP. From one human being to another, keep doing your best and know that there’s another human somewhere hoping you are well. Cheers.

Eddie,

I posted this elsewhere but I’ll post it again.

I tried going back to Reddit the day before yesterday, and was immediately disappointed with how many useful comments for solutions for problems have been deleted due to the Great Reddit Migration of 2023.

I’m not upset at the people doing this, it’s just proof that this method of protest truly works. If I have any questions or wanna chat about a specific topic I’ll come ask here on Lemmy. That way, I can get answers to problems from you lovely people while building up the fediverse with useful tips and tricks.

Eddie,

Anything that involves the mechanic “defeat all the enemies in this room in order to unlock the next room” is a huge turn off for me.

Eddie,

Saved you a click: They’re talking about Ratchet and Clank.

Eddie,

Thought I’d throw my opinion into the ring here, since literally every comment is shitting on this.

Arc is a design project, that also happens to be a web browser. If you’re just calling this “another chromium fork”, I think you’re completely missing the point of who this product is for. First of all, it’s not for you.

Secondly, the design changes that arc is working on perfecting are pretty groundbreaking. The ability to customize the css and functionality of any web page without code and it saves your profiles for future use with a marketplace is super interesting to me. So much UI on modern websites is entirely unnecessary. As a designer, this is a dream.

Also, nobody is mentioning that their working on a Windows version THAT NATIVELY RUNS SWIFT ON WINDOWS. This is a big deal for future cross compatibility in general, why are so many people not looking at this?

Anyway that’s my rant. Trying to voice my opinions even if they’re the odd ones out to prevent a Lemmy based echo chamber. Feel free to disagree.

Eddie,

If there’s a 14-year-old coding prodigy who can do something truly amazing in less than 24 hours, we need you now more than ever.

Miyamoto wonders why Pikmin hasn't sold more and why people think the games are difficult (nintendoeverything.com)

Seems like time and time again, Nintendo is always trying to sell games to an audience of people who do not wish to play video games. For a sequel, I figured Nintendo should focus on their core audience of Pikmin fans but it seems like they’re always changing things to appeal to people who don’t play games while in return...

Eddie,

No, it is not.

Eddie,

you have 300 IQ over here

Eddie,

It has been said by many indie developers many times that purchasing games through key resellers is objectively more harmful for the developers than piracy entirely.

Key resellers tend to buy keys in bulk using credit cards. When the bank reports the card stolen, steam issues refunds. The developer of the game is responsible for these charge backs, not the storefront.

Basically, if you buy games from key resellers not only are you not giving developers money that they deserve, but you’re literally taking it out of their pockets. Do not buy from key resellers, pirate instead.

Eddie,

I like the image. Did you create it yourself manually, or do you have a screenshot program that prepared this for you?

Eddie,

I love how this is almost laid out like a chart. Each row is a different category of things to work on as somebody with ADHD. The left half is what to try to do and the right half is what not to do. All we can do is keep trying.

Eddie,

These last 24 hours have really just felt like a better reddit. I find content here now. I laugh at memes here now. I didn’t know anybody on Reddit and this is just better.

What are we?

What do Lemmy users call themselves? What do Kbin users call themselves? What about Mast?

So far I can't come up with anything better than "Fediziens"

Eddie,

Lemmings, binnies, and dons. I declare it here and now

If Lemmy and Mastodon continues to get popular, we will eventually get Instance wars.

If the descentralization of social networks continue, we will have to prepare for the eventual rise of the instances wars, where people will start to fight about which instance is better and which one is weird to be in and so on, but that’s for the future of us all.

Eddie,

sounds lit. do you all take butter and salt with your popcorn?

Any love for the N64?

I don’t see many posts here about the N64 and it doesn’t look like there is an N64 community on lemmy.world It’s the console I have the most nostalgia for and I have over 130 games in my collection. I’m currently playing a ROM hack called SM64: Beyond the Cursed Mirror. It has some pretty challenging platforming but it...

Eddie,

Always love me some N64. Unfortunately, it hasn’t aged as well as some of the other retro consoles since the dips in framerate was pretty common for that machine even back when it was new. In comparison, the SNES still outputs a clean 60fps, as it was more of a priority back then.
