My partner and I play locally with an old PC as a server (we got tired of constantly needing invite codes). Its not bad and they’re still adding new content and pals. We stopped for a bit around release because of the rubberbanding though.

To be honest, if I didn’t live in Amerikkka and instead somewhere where Ladas were common I’d do it. Aesthetic, simple, cheap, and no built in capitalist spyware.
“Who pays for the guns? The ammo? Pennington says guardians can use the stipend to buy firearms.”
What are they going to be using? Hi Point or some cheap .22 hunting rifle? $500 ain’t alot for firearms. I mean, it’s an horrible idea that either places dangerous armed facists in schools or provides more cranking pressure on schools.
In some places in America they still count if they were ‘unexcused’ (ie no doctors note, even if your kid was sick) and parents taken to truancy court. I remember some friends growing up that had to fight that because they didn’t have the money to see the doctor over every sick day.
CW for work, medication, and mental health.
Work has been so busy and crushing with our workload and being on-call. It really feels like I haven’t had a good breather since the winter holidays last year.
I really want to take a few week break and drive out to some beautiful places but not enough money and my car is always breaking down. Maybe I’ll go camping locally…
On the plus side though, HRT is impressing me every week. My boobs are filling out and are about fist sized, body hair has lightened up, and can’t fit into old pants because of these thighs.
I also started taking antidepressants again and they seem to be helping with my stress and depression, so thats nice. Therapy, gender affirming care, and coping techniques kept me alive but I was really struggling.
Kind of forgot TekSyndicate still existed after Qain and Wendell left years ago.
But yeah, Windows seems to always get worse. Even 11 has gotten worse as it’s been out. I hate dealing with it when I help my partner out with her pc.
I used them during covid, not specifically to avoid the virus (because I know it just passes the risk along), but because I was in the beginning of my transition in an unfriendly state so did not want to undo all of my work to boymode and at the time I was more financially stable so I could afford it. Always tipped well too.
For the average situation it doesn’t make alot of sense.
Also Capitalism trying to shoehorn AI into every product possible. Why does my work software need an AI built in? It won’t help us employees or the company, what would help is to fuck off with the ‘do more with less’ and pay us more. But no, someone somewhere got paid to add a worthless implementation of AI to our software.
Gin, if you can’t handle straight gin then a gin and tonic. I feel like it’d be the right headspace drink for flying. Clean and proper.
Dropping the first в helps alot. Because trying to ‘v’ right before going into a ‘st’ was tongue tieing me really bad
Thanks! I’ll probably start looking for some films, there’s one I already intended to watch (but not sure if the pacing would be conducive to learning).
I do have a small collection of Russian music which is slow enough for me to kind of learn, even if pronunciations are stretched a bit.
That makes sense. I’ve been meaning to add phonetics to my flash cards to assist with longer words, здравствуйте has been the hardest to pronounce so far but защищающаяся seems alot worse. I’ll definitely start trying to pronounce it today though.
And being able to get at least an idea of what people are discussing online is really fun. On YouTube I’ll sometimes use random Russian comments as flash cards if they’re short enough.
Thank you!
Transmission has been my goto torrenting program since uTorrent went to shit years and years ago.
It’s dead simple, no extra frills, runs on pretty much anything, and has a web server interface that you can bind to so whenever I click a magnet link it’ll start downloading to my home server.
I have the same issue, like even ramens that aren’t meat flavored still shove some beef extract or bonito flakes in.
When I can find it, Ramen Express brand noodles are certified vegan and vegetarian (on the packaging it only says vegetarian), and when I’ve gone to my small local asian market I’ve found some good noodles without animal products.
A little late but had a good Mother’s Day; got messages from my siblings and parents, Dad apologized for last year (father’s fay instead of mother’s), went for a walk around town. Also got my HRT refill.
In other news, still no update regarding SRS… 😣
Cringy theming and allegedly less system use (but it’s Chromium so kind of a losing battle). God I hate gamer shit.
Normally an old soviet Ракета watch (that often sticks) or a shitty Casio with a cloth band. Have a couple of broken Штурманские watches as well that I need to fix.
My homescreen is just black with Lemmy, Signal, my homelab, Discord, web browser, music, texting, and my smart lighting.
I’ve tried to simplify down my mobile device as I have an addictive personality and have struggled in the past with social media on my phone. Half the time my phone is in greyscale as well.
God I hate gambling and casinos with a passion. And since I live and work near casinos I have to deal with coworkers either bragging about how much they pissed away that weekend or getting invited to go piss away money at these predatory businesses.
