We were traveling through Malta in 2018 when I came across this. According to the locals it had crashed up on shore about a month prior. They didn’t know what to do so they tied it off until they could come up with a solution. My personal favorite of the photos I took. The two guys below were exploring the ship. Thought it...
Since it was my favorite shot I got it printed. I extended the left edge with Photoshop to get an ultra wide 2:3 print (the original right edge was cropped out of the photo posted here). Got it done on a reflective metal, looks great in the dining room.
They were the only ones I could find that did the ultra wide in metal (it’s 40x60). I added the gloss white as metal prints can sometimes dull the colors.
Going back though, I’d probably just skip the first now. 2 improved on 1 in every way. 3 and ultimate was also good but a bit bloated. Then we get a slew of mixed to bad games until we get to the nether realms era.
So basically play 2 then play series that starts with the 2011 Mortal Kombat
I recently set up a LLM to run locally on my desktop. Now that the novelty of setting it up and playing with different settings has worn off, I’m struggling to come up with actual uses for it. What do you use it for when not doing work stuff?
The other day I needed to set up a node service with an HTML front-end that allows me to upload files from a browser that end up on my machine hosted in a docker container. Something like this would take me the better part of a day to complete. Through a series of prompts I got what I needed deployed in less than an hour.
Then unit tests. Sometimes all I need is good code coverage and since it’s just tests you can verify the quality of the generated code if it runs and covers the lines you want. I’ve saved a ton of hours of tedious code coverage work this way.
Year 1 I went hard on pokemon go, I committed to the original 150 (I don’t recognize anything past red and blue) that were available and in my region then peaced out. There wasn’t anything there past my nostalgia.
This is horse shit. You have to work way harder now for way less points. Just checking in on the Xbox and Bing apps every morning used to net me 250-300 points. Now it’s about 100. Playing an Xbox game requires about 10 minutes of play instead of just opening the game. Achievements used to give you 50 points, now it’s 5.
Also they used to just give you cool shit to do every week like a little mission in a random game pass game. Now it’s all just generic play any game and get an achievement.
Looking at a couple hours of a stock means nothing and is purposely misleading. Zoom out and it’s got pretty good upward consistency.
Posts like this are like the sad ex who can’t move on and just makes up bullshit about their former partner. Let’s move on and make Lemmy better instead of being stuck making up fake news for internet points.
Yea now it’s going through fluctuations. When this post went up it was at the peak of the 26th. Either way, we gotta wait this out before jerking ourselves off about a stock crash.
Based on the YouTube comments people are excited for this one, moreso than the previous one. I’ve never played a Paper Mario game. Can someone help me understand the significance of this?
Bandcamp was bought by Epic Games, who fired half the staff and sold off the remainder to some kind of nebulous music licencing platform. I wouldn’t cheer them on much longer, I see dark days ahead.

That’s always how this goes. A better name for this sub that reflects people’s voting patterns would be “popular_opinions_on_lemmy_that_are_unpopular_with_my_dad” but it doesn’t quite roll off the tongue.
Right? My Pixel is also 128GB. I’ve got like 5 or 6 thousand Spotify songs, 3 gigs in my pocket casts cache, about 10 gigs of emulated games and dozens of apps and games. If you’re struggling with 128 gigs on your phone, clean some shit off there. I’ve still got 30 gigs free.
I remember the teacher in grade 2 started to read it to us then bounced on it because it was a lot more complicated than chocolate factory. I never went back to it but I’ve been curious
