Usual people reasons - staking claim to their bit of people territory, finding a mate, sounding an alarm…

Yeah, it doesn’t fit the template but the low IQ version would be more like “You only need ChatGPT for coding.”

Or Risktego - it’s a game of Risk, where each battle is determined by an individual game of Stratego.

What is link aggregation? Just combining network connections of a cloud? What does that have to do with lemmy?

It’s specifically a social media platform like Reddit (where people share links to media and users discuss it via the comments, typically). This is as opposed to (for example) microblogging, like Twitter (Mastodon on the fediverse).

Why would there by different servers in the first place doesn’t that make the social media smaller for everyone?

All of the various lemmy servers can interact with each other. You can use your lemmy.world account to interact with communities on other lemmy servers (aka Instances).

What is an instance?

A specific server running whatever Fediverse software. lemmy.world is a lemmy instance.

Isn’t the point of a federalized social media to be better connected?

Yes, and it is!

Plot twist: The code is written in Whitespace

Stopping it is, in fact, very easy. Simply unplug the servers, that’s all it takes.

Honestly, if they made it a requirement that it has to be 100% clean energy, this could actually be a net positive, but of course they won’t because it’s Trump’s admin and he’s got a boner for coal and oil.

Dependent on your hard drive’s capacity (and free space), you could make a separate partition and install Linux to that, while leaving your existing partition and files untouched. Then you’ll be able to access them from the newly installed Linux partition, can move over what ever you need, then remove the Windows partition once you’re done.

But all of these things are already happening. Why are you still a Windows user if these are your lines in the sand? (Did you mis-read the assignment?)

Chicken tikka masala, but I feel like I’m cheating, because we just went shopping earlier today and picked up everything we needed to make an alarmingly large batch.

You know… Lasagna is sauce, cheese and vegetables or meat on a dough base.

Lasagna is a pizza.

I only started eating spicy food regularly maybe 10 years ago (starting with spicy noodles, actually), and at first it was a harrowing experience. Now, I’m much more tolerant to it and things that were at first inedible don’t taste particularly hot at all anymore. My wife got me a variety of dried chili flakes for Christmas which include Trinidad scorpion and Carolina reaper and they’re certainly hot, but tolerable. I think they’d have about killed me 5-10 years ago.

We have a local wings place that has a wing sauce they simply call ‘Diablo’, and every time I order it I’m sitting here crying while I eat them thinking, “Why do I keep doing this to myself?”, but after they’re gone I just want more. It’s weirdly addictive.

If she’s not, consider a more adventurous spouse! …or get her to accept the offer, too.

Either way, I’m in. Wouldn’t even need the life-extending part.

Clearly they’re thinking of The Crow.

The majority of computer users aren’t particularly computer savvy.

This one I can actually kind of understand because the shift is gradual. Like, if you started watching in season 3, it would be quite obvious that he’s a piece of shit, but if you start in season 1, the viewer establishes that he’s a sympathetic character and it’s hard to really identify a firm moment when he goes from being sympathetic to villain. It’s like the old ‘boiling water with a frog in it’ analogy… The viewer (at least it was true for me) tries to justify his increasingly bad actions because he’s been established as a “good guy” in the beginning until at some point they just have to step back and think, “Wow… he’s actually an awful person.” Then you watch the rest with a re-framed perspective.

According to this source, adult male bengal tigers weigh 380-580 lbs. Pretty sure it could just run into you at full speed and do plenty of damage.

Rad, thanks! Always interested in furry-catering VR games.

That’s a pretty cute looking silhouette… What game is this?
