I think intent matters more than the content tbh. In general I receive few compliments so any compliment meant with sincerity is always well received.

Having just went shopping in nz that price seems about right. It’s not cheap over there.

Just out of professional curiosity, why have you not set memory limits on the containers? Surely the disk thrashing would be detrimental to overall performance. Assuming you ran this all in containers and didn’t do a bare metal install.

sorry but i did a lot of the trial shit and i got laughed at bc i tried the bard beta and i (drunkenly) asked it for the train times home (assuming all it would need to do is scrape the results and compile it together for me) and i was left stranded bc the train station was closed and it was wrong 😭

Given enough evidence that fraud took place who reports it is irrelevant.

@swordscomic.bsky.social I hear you’re in wellington a lot, where could I find a schedule for the next few weeks? I’m travelling the next 3 weeks and hope I could pick something up!

There is no justifiable reason to ever send me an email. Ever. If your message is urgent you may appear to me in a dream or as an image on a slice of toast, and I will get back to you.

Honestly wouldn’t feel too bad about it, most of us are trying to remember the social aspect of these platforms.

I’d prefer something akin to the old forums, having to read through a thread before being able to reply just reinforces not being repetitive.

I like to think of it as people trying to be helpful in boosting the reach of a post but missing the point of a post.

This is one of the weirdest parts of the steam deck, it’s really big and heavy yet super comfortable. My switch on the other hand gets awkward after a longish session.

The only comparison I can make is to the game gear, shockingly big but surprisingly comfy.

Really depends on the situation, honestly.

I don't love jira, but i've worked with enough MSP's who rolled their own ticket manager to miss it.

1. I saw a lot of people on Bluesky yesterday poking fun at Lindsay Graham saying that the U.S. would use financial sanctions to "crush" the economies of allies who tried to help the ICC. Graham is characteristically grotesque in his language, but I'm not laughing myself.

was it difficult to expand internal storage on the steam deck?

The only thing i need from video games now is mundane petty stakes quests, I've grown tired of universe ending threats and just wish to steal pumpkins from nearby humans.

nothing I hate more (in this specific moment) than the slow death of the text walkthrough, I don't want to stutter through some dumbass video with 8,000 ads to figure out where the golden secrets are in Fuckshit 2024. I just need a picture and a small paragraph, please god.
