Currently on day 2 of a nasty hangover. Sipping calpis to stay cool. Back to work tomorrow. Ugh
EthanolParty@lemmy.sdf.orgto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Looking for lemmy.world alternative.English32·2 years agoI use SDF and I’m happy with it but his second point is that the instance should defederate/not tolerate Nazis, which SDF doesn’t fit the bill
EthanolParty@lemmy.sdf.orgto Memes@lemmy.ml•It gets really good after the first 31 episodes28·2 years agoI enjoyed even the first season of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, but it really starts to pick up in Season 2 when they introduce Danny DeVito’s character. Well, it really starts to pick up when his character evolves into trash goblin mode in like Season 3/4. Well okay actually seasons 5/6/7 are where it gets REALLY good!
EthanolParty@lemmy.sdf.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Which sites do you blacklist from your internet searches?1·2 years agoYeah it wouldn’t bother me so much if any of it was actually useful, but they all just read like a lazy student padding out the page count on a college paper
I searched for a comparison between two USB flash drive brands and the top result waffled for multiple paragraphs about the history and definition of “flash memory” before finally recommending: “just get whichever one has the best performance in your price range”. Gee, thanks AI.
EthanolParty@lemmy.sdf.orgto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Which sites do you blacklist from your internet searches?73·2 years agoIt’s tough because I almost feel like I need a whitelist at this point. 90% of the first page of Google results usually read like AI-generated fluff that doesn’t actually even answer my question. There are a handful of websites I trust now to give me real information and not just clickbait SEO nonsense.
I’m at the point where I add “reddit” to the end of every search just to try and find something that was written by a real person. Maybe someday I can start adding “lemmy” instead.
EthanolParty@lemmy.sdf.orgto Linux@lemmy.ml•Shifted to MX Linux, based on Debian, with Xfce desktop. Looks not bad in my opinion, but let's see how it goes. [@thelinuxEXP](https://mastodon.social/@thelinuxEXP) [@[email protected]](https://lemmy.ml1·2 years agoI’m using MX xfce to revive an old laptop that was struggling with Windows 10. I think it looks and feels great considering the performance.

EthanolParty@lemmy.sdf.orgto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What perfectly normal thing can't you be around anymore due to something you experienced?21·2 years agoGrowing up, whenever I was sick with an upset stomach, my mom would give me 7up to drink. I dunno, I guess she figured the carbonation would help? Now decades later 7up still reminds me of the taste of vomit.
EthanolParty@lemmy.sdf.orgto Cyberpunk 2077@lemmy.world•Will just keep posting here until people have some things to talk about. 😃2·2 years agoThe patch sounds like a pretty big overhaul so I’m waiting for that before I start playing again. I just wish we had more than a week between the patch and the expansion.
It’s not the True Reddit Experience™ until this inexplicably gets more votes than the original

Movie Studios Want To Unmask Him.English35·2 years agoYeah it’s not that I think they’re above this kind of petty bullshit, but I don’t get why they’d go “fuck this guy in particular”.
That said, even if the guy admitted to running the world’s biggest pirate ring, screw them anyway

EthanolParty@lemmy.sdf.orgto Linux Gaming@lemmy.ml•Linux Desktop Market share reaches 3.08%English2·2 years agoand this time i’m not even dual booting.
I’m so close to doing the same thing. We’re at the point where proton compatibility is good enough that most of the games in my library work. And even if a game truly doesn’t work on Linux at all, I just talk myself out of buying it anyway.
I think I pretty much only boot up Windows once every few weeks to keep it updated.
I really like the tiling but I’m getting a bit tired of GNOME.
EthanolParty@lemmy.sdf.orgto Lemmy@lemmy.ml•Why do some communities have @[INSTANCE NAME] and some are just their names?English2·2 years agoThere was also a bug where some communities would have @instancename even on their home instance, like lemmy.world/c/[email protected]. It would continue to work on the home instance but break federation with other instances. I don’t know if it’s still happening on the latest update.
EthanolParty@lemmy.sdf.orgto metal@lemmy.sdf.org•Mods are asleep... posting the whole Secret Stairways "Enchantment of the Ring" album.English2·2 years agoKicking myself for missing the reissue of this tape
I love this album.
When I used Windows I mainly bought on Gog for the DRM-free aspect. Now that I’ve switched to Linux almost completely, I find Steam’s software for running Windows games on Linux to be just about the most seamless and easy to use, compared to other stuff I’ve tried like Lutris and Heroic Games Launcher.
