I’m one of the few that don’t work in tech but it’s arguably the hobby I spend the most time (and money) with so I’m not sure if I really count. I work in emergency management & specialized response services.

Happy to see I’m not the only one who prefers raspberry jam! Imo it’s truly the perfect pairing

Some of us don’t really have that luxury. For example, I don’t choose who I need to communicate with for work purposes.

Scrubs completely captured what it feels like to work in healthcare. It’s the only medical TV show that I not only managed to finish but actually rewatch often.

I use it occasionally to try out games on gamepass that I’m not sure I’ll enjoy. I’ll usually play for about 30 minutes to an hour and then decide if I want to install it or just play something else.

I also occasionally use it on my steamdeck but that’s even less often.

Zotero is such a lifesaver. I started using it to allow for easier citations and reference lists but I’ve loved being able to keep my sources organized and saved in one place while doing research. The browser extensions are also super convenient to save everything to sort later on.

I’ve always loved our toonie as well, the two different metals just looks so great. The black ones for remembrance of QEII are especially nice.

I personally have always loved our money in general, a lot of it stands out quite a bit. I do find it quite funny though that even with such unique physical money, we are one of the most cashless countries in the world.

I loved SCC, it was such a great show that didn’t get the attention it deserved.

I used to stream a bit back in the justin.tv days and I would usually only get a handful of viewers but even to this day, it was some of the most unique gaming experiences I had. I used to try and play games that no one was streaming/talking about and a couple of times I actually ended up with the devs watching the stream and those were such great memories.

One time, I played this flash game where you had timed “lives” and the dev was watching (without me knowing) when I ran out of lives. I mentioned I’d be going to play something else while I waited for my lives to come back and he sent me a DM telling me that he would go and remove the timer so I could keep playing if I wanted.

That being said, I haven’t streamed since then and I’m honestly not even sure how I’d start again. I don’t think I’d ever enjoy having a large audience but I definitely enjoyed playing with a few people helping out on what to do next.

I hadn’t kept up with Factorio much over the last little while but I’ve always appreciated how great the Friday Facts are.

Not surprised by the overall theme of the expansion but I didn’t expect a different tech tree for “dlc playthroughs”. I think if it’s reshuffled correctly, it could really help give even the initial part of a playthrough a fresh feel and change up some of my usual strategies. Looking forward to reading about more of the details over the next year.

Omg I remember seeing this was being remade but I’ve purposely not looked at anything beyond that. So excited to give this a try, it was one of the 4 or 5 games I’d play non stop in rotation (partly because I was bad at video games as a kid (not that I’m much better now, I just have less excuses)).

In case anyone didn’t want to open the article, the feature is improved image quality due to AMD’s FSR2 on PlayStation being used over 2x MSAA on Xbox.

There’s also a slightly different gamma on PlayStation, combined with the different anti-alliasing it results in cleaner looking frames. The article has side by side comparisons as well.

Thank you so much for the detailed guide. I finally got around to finishing the setup yesterday but only had time for a very short raid to test everything out. Definitely looking forward to playing around some more, seems like nearly all my annoyances with Tarkov are mitigated by the various mods you listed (especially KMC). I understand why it’s impossible but private coop would really make this perfect.

Do you have a guide or something to reference to setup EFT Single Player as you’ve described? I haven’t played in a long time (last time was right around when the first versions of the SP mod was made public) because I got fed up with the online experience. I’d love to jump back in to SP eventually to see what’s changed, I definitely miss the EFT gameplay.

Instructions unclear, I’ve now got cables duct taped around my body.

Back when I was on iOS, I started with Alien Blue, then I moved to Apollo when reddit purchased it.

After I switched to android, I settled on Sync and Boost. I used Sync about 90% of the time but I had my alts on Boost and would have different feeds split between the apps. The last few versions of Boost had gotten me to start thinking about using it more but then the API changes were announced.

I actually find that I use my phone less when I’m wearing my smartwatch than when I’m not. When notifications come in, I need to make sure it’s not work related or something else that requires my immediate attention. If I check a notification on my phone, I’m much more likely to end up doing something else at the same time. Whereas if I check my watch, I don’t have any incentive to do anything else.

It does vary from place to place but in North America at least, most often it’s that it will rain in __% of the land area.

Additionally, I would add that knowing about statistics at least allows you to understand that without that additional info, any stat is essentially meaningless, or at least easily misleading.

I think there’s a decent chance it will. At the bare minimum, it already feels much better to me than voat ever did.

Which honestly has been one of my favourite features of Lemmy so far. I can browse All to see what everyone is talking about, I can browse Subscribed to see what I care about and I can browse Local to see what Canadians care about.
