I use them in at least one out every of ten comments; I feel like most people don’t know how to use them, however.
I’ve never even heard of that one before
The one that blew my mind the most was finding out that calories are calculated by setting the food on fire, and then measuring how much it can heat water. Calories are literally just a measurement of how well something burns.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Cancel Your Subscription: A browser game where you try to cancel your subscription
42·7 days agoYou’re not missing much. Every single click simply gives you a cheeky error message. This isn’t realistic at all.
If you don’t feel llke spending money just run a SHOUTcast server on your home PC/homelab/personal server, plus a small web server to serve as the front-end, and that way you can avoid paying the monthly fee for AsuraCast entirely (plus royalty fees).

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Old laptop with non-funtional display... What do I turn it intoEnglish
2·8 days agoHow valid of a solution this is depends entirely on whether or not you care about things like 4K, Full RGB (4:4:4), Dolby Atmos, HDR, etc. If you do, the laptop’s GPU and the TV both must support HDMI 2.1 or higher, or they won’t be able to handle the high bandwidth demands of modern home theater display formats. (You need a decent high bandwidth cable too, of course.)
Thankfully OP might be in luck. I just looked it up and it turns out that the 3050ti does in fact support HDMI 2.1. I’m not sure if that guarantees the laptop will have a 2.1 port like with desktop GPUs but I guess the best way to find out is to just plug in a cable and see if everything works.

39·10 days agoGod that app was such trash. Voice recognition simply did not work in the 2000s yet everybody and their mother tried to push it upon us 20 years too soon, just like they’re trying to do now with LLMs.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Here comes the algorithm - Valve updating Steam to show different games for discounts and eventsEnglish
4·10 days agoI’m confused; haven’t Steam sales been making recommendations based on the games I play for years now? They’ve been doing it for so long I don’t even remember when it started.

16·13 days agoYeah not too long ago Sony decided to stop porting their games to PC (used to be after a two year delay). I have no idea why. Probably cause Japan hates PC gaming.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Counter-Strike Co-Creator Says Gabe Newell Got So Obsessed With Mongolian Throat Singing at Valve HQ That Staff Started Closing Their Office Doors to Escape the NoiseEnglish
11·12 days agoPersonally I’m a fan of The HU. It’s a more modern take on throat singing.
Seriously I see two PCI slots and potentially AGP as well. That case looks early 2000s too.

movies@piefed.social•'The Odyssey' Passes 'Jurassic World' as Universal's Highest Grossing Film of All TimeEnglish
13·16 days agoWell if it was important to the plot, then that only futher goes to show how bad the film was, because they didn’t make that apparent at all. In the film, after the giant passes out the exit is left wide open for them to simply sneak away. But instead they form a bizarre plan to wake him up and piss him off by stabbing him in the eyeball, just so they have a reason to run for their lives and learn that it speaks English. It made no god damn sense at all.
Thank you for your suggestion. I hate when old literature is translated by pompous pricks just to make it more difficult to read for the sake of it, so I will definitely check out Emily Wilson’s version.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•People hooked on vapes try a new way to quit: cigarettes | Hacker NewsEnglish
12·19 days agoVaping only made my nicotine addiction worse. I went from light cigarettes to vaping to back to cigarettes, this time smoking reds and dipping them in menthol so I could inhale more deeply and get a stronger buzz.
The gum worked, however. I tapered down from 4mg to 2mg, then half of a 2mg, then a quarter, then a nibble, and then I realized that I don’t need nicotine anymore and quit for good. Now I just vape live resin.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•MAGA Festival With Kid Rock Canceled After No One Wanted to GoEnglish
10·19 days agoI remember when the internet used to like him for enforcing $3 beers at his concerts, because at one point he actually used to care about his working-class fanbase (or at least had a good PR team back then). Really goes to show how Trump can bring out the absolute worst in people.

Even if we stop adding artificial motion blur to games, it will still remain present in the display itself until we achieve 1000Hz. It’s called Blur Busters Law.
