I know we are all on here because we dislike the kind of algorithms that tik tok, Instagram, and Facebook have, but that is exactly the thing my wife was looking for. When I had her download pixelfed and loops she was like ’ I have to search out content and manually follow people like I did with Facebook back in the day?’ and she uninstalled.
Algorithms can be addictive and evil, but for some people that’s what they’re looking for.
2·2 months agoThe Tenderizer (with fire rate set to high) is pretty great at clearing enemy waves of voteless. Every time you spawn with it you have to change the fire rate though.
Quasar Cannon was kind of mid when I used it. I ended up liking the Laser Cannon more than it, but neither were really cutting it for me against Harvesters. Laser Cannon was decent at killing Overseers though.
Machine guns in general were pretty decent when I used them against Harvesters and Overseers.
The Senator was good for killing enemy Overseers in a pinch. It took ~5 shots to kill when body shotting, and with headshots I was able to kill in 2-3 shots.
If you use the Tenderizer, the Quasar Cannon, and the FRV at the same time I swear you can almost hear smooth jazz playing in the background…
271·3 months agoTBH it was pretty barebones, but I did enjoy seeing some of my worlds in stereoscopic 3D. It also scares me for the future of VR (minecraft is a REALLY popular game. If it is dropping VR does that mean adoption isn’t going that well?).
Also, this is specifically regarding Bedrock minecraft. Java has never officially supported it, but there are mods that add the functionality.
I haven’t played it on steam deck, but it might be a little hard. It requires a little precision aiming, so you could maybe pull it off with the trackpad, but I struggle with mouse as it is. If they added some console-like auto aim it would be a phenomenal controller game.
2·3 months agoI was completely unaware this was coming out. I’m curious to see what NMRIH die hards think of it before I buy/download it.
2·3 months agoOooh, this is a great idea! I’m bald AF now so might be a great way to capitalize on that
4·4 months agotakedown pins on a chain
That’s a thing?! That’s so smart!!! I gotta look into an aftermarket version of that. Like, I don’t expect to lose the takedown pin nor do I think I’ll ever really find myself taking it out somewhere I would drop it, but can’t hurt to make extra sure I can’t drop it.
This was a real ad apparently. Snopes Article
Here’s a video of it in action
I would definitely get some ideas from the Internet, but verify them with a vet afterwards. If you feel like your current vets advice isn’t working don’t be afraid to get a second opinion from a different vet (it’s what I would do with a human doctor as well).
3·4 months agoThis feels like it belongs in accidental renaissance as well to me. Something about the dogs pose makes it look like it is in deep, troubled thought.
5·4 months agoRegardless of truck size, I don’t think tractor trailers are going anywhere. Even if we made trucks smaller those would still be out there
Smaller trucks would still get in accidents though, and I imagine they would be less deadly
I’d say I missed out on this really cool map making period in gaming history (Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake, Half-life, counter-strike, etc.), but it kinda lived on a little when I was a teenager (countless, painful hours making halo 3 and halo: reach maps using a controller…fun times though). Kids nowadays have it the best though: When I was little we DREAMED of a lego video game and minecraft nails that (lego island and lego island 2 were awesome, but it wasn’t infinite building awesome).
2·5 months agoI was gonna chalk it up to strength of schedule (by that I mean give the team that is probably gonna get walloped a ranking for a week or 2), but Boston College plays Mizzou (currently ranked 9th) in 2 weeks. Georgia Tech is playing Louisville (currently ranked 22nd) in 2 weeks. I guess it’s other factors, who knows how the voters in the AP Poll decide…
Regardless, if Boston College beats Mizzou, and Georgia Tech beats Louisville they both can be ranked by the end of week 2.
Hell yes brother! Same. It’s always nice when I’m on the bus or an airplane and I can just break out wired headphones. No worries about charging them, they just work!
2·6 months agoI see someone else read this NY Times article today. Wild read, I was trying to get things done around the house and it sucked me in.
Edit: OP posted the article in another community, can’t believe I missed it. https://kbin.melroy.org/m/news@lemmy.world/t/411895
Wikipedia article on this
It does look kind of complicated, but with less than 100 parts how hard could it be?

Probably a fake post (b/c 4Chan), but maybe they got stuck at a specific section of the rebuild?
