I haven't seen anyone mention Dark Cloud. Love that game.

My Steam Deck doesn't even pass the benchmark. I play Rise on it at the best settings. I was kinda disappointed.

This is a momentous event. I only wish it had Red Alert 2 in it.

I have not seen it, but we should let each other know if we do.

Looks like I was right to be hopeful. 🥵

The term "ever really" means it still might in the future. 😘

It got too expensive for her to keep doing that a few years ago and she had to stop. Constantly monitoring every single possible avenue for her content to be shared is extremely onerous. The existence of Lemmy just proves how much she would have to do. Someone could make a Lemmy that is literally just a full rip of her content and as long as the owner did not widly publish its existence then she would likely never find it.

You seem to think that Trump didn't add access keys for his idols the instant he got back in the door. He loves Putin and Kim Jun Il. They are like, his favorite drinking buddies.

I think they underestimate a military's desire to use all of the things that go boom.

The big difference between the a relational database and a spreadsheet is that "can do" clause in your sentence. In a relational database they MUST have those constraints to be related.

In the Microsoft ecosystem Access is the relational database. Excel is a table manager with fancy features.

I love that Srinivasa Ramanujan's notes are on display in the library at Cambridge (if I remember correctly). The man is hands down one of the greatest men to have ever lived. I was so happy when The Man Who Knew Infinity came out. He deserves his place alongside Leibnitz, Newton, Gauss, Einstein, al-Khwarizmi, and too many others who contributed more to our world than 99% of humanity will ever know.

I would agree if they didn't use their non-sterile plants to take over small farms around their huge ones by suing for theft when farmers used part of the previous crop that had been pollinated with the Monsanto GM pollen. They didn't buy that genome so it was stolen... Fucking wankers.

So I am out with my family for Father's Day and we passed a church who had:

"What's your favorite Bible verse? Post it on our Facebook."

And it got me to wondering how they would react if someone started posting all of the verses from their storybook that specifically call out the behavior of modern Christians. All the ones about welcoming immigrants and providing shelter and care for the poor, or deriding capitalism. Wonder what would happen if people did that en masse? I almost want to write a bot to go through and do it.

My son was just born, and while a few photos will go on the likes of Facebook and Instagram, overall my partner and I are wanting to keep our shared photos private from the EULA abuses that we all know and hate.

Does anyone here have any good suggestions? I would create my own front end, but I can't swing hosting or a static IP to do it from my local box. Are there any companies out there who aren't total shit bags who claim immediate irrevocable license to all of my photos to do with whatever the fuck they please?
