I decided to try to stop swearing in college, to see if it would improve my attitude - and to see if anyone would notice.
Both turned out to be true. People found me pleasant to work with and hang around. I recommend it, personally!

I had no idea it was even released.
Splatoon 1 actually had local multiplayer - it was 2-player only, but for those of us with kids, it was good enough. Split screen multiplayer in Splatoon 2/3 would’ve been great.
Pretty much nothing you said is true, it was not “designed from the ground up to be frustrating” and the other statements are too vague to even bother attacking. “Not even wrong” is the phrase that comes to mind.
You didn’t even mention an example of a game which would count as “something good”.
QubesOS. When you need security and don’t need to play games, this is objectively the best distro.
NixOS for me. It’s a package manager (a very nice, declarative one) that you can use on any Linux (or Mac), and there’s also an entire distro based on it.
Thank you for this! Gonna download it ASAP.
I block meme communities and AI art. I’ll unblock AI art once the machines figure out how fingers work. I don’t block porn except when it’s outside of my interests (I’m not into men or furries, for example).
You might consider unblocking the meta communities - it can sometimes be illuminating to see how other places are run, and give you ideas to improve your own instance.
We don’t have downvotes on my instance, and it’s an amazing difference. I recommend it!
I generally just upvote everything I like, no real thought process involved.
Thank you! I hadn’t heard of Qanba before - they definitely have some interesting joysticks.
As someone who routinely watches YT through Invidious and NewPipe, I haven’t changed my habits.
The Electoral College.
I’m not into feet specifically, but when I ask for “Veronica Mars in a string bikini” I don’t want to get “Veronica Mars with unattached toes.” It’s distracting AF.
Doesn’t happen with real models, or even human-made hentai.
The tech isn’t there yet. There are so often distracting flaws around the hands/feet. The AI doesn’t really know what a human is, its just endlessly re-combining existing material.
My lifehack: block every community with “memes” in its name. You’ll see far fewer memes in general, and be less aggravated when one does show up!
I put the Nix package manager on my Deck and use it for software development. You definitely want a BlueTooth keyboard to use it this way.
People need and want various levels of abstraction, type system control, and even just syntaxes. In these cases, it’s easier to switch languages - or make one - than to implement a solution in a language that would fight against your needs.
I have my copy! Only made it through the prologue since work+family limits my gaming time, but I like it so far!
I love Signal, and I have persuaded people to use it a lot. That said, it is definitely not the gold standard for privacy. It’s a good-enough compromise between actual unbreakable encryption and trivial for anyone to use. It’s always been valuable for that reason, and still is.
Don’t worry about Molly - it uses a variation of the same code that Signal does, so they don’t need “help” to get critical fixes that Signal receives. Use it if you like it!
The actual gold standard for privacy would be logging in through TOR and sending GPG-encrypted messages that way. And there’s an app which does this, too - it’s called Briar. (No phone number needed, either!) It’s not as seamless to set up as Signal is, though.
Law enforcement has been collecting fingerprints for over 100 years now, and the history of using fingerprints for other reasons goes even further back.
The error here is that we decided to start using an easily obtainable piece of data as a “lock” on our phones and computers. For many reasons, it’s better to use a password or PIN.
