I wouldn’t know, I haven’t tried it with windows. Only Mac and Linux

Yeah I did install Linux (Mint) on my MacBook Pro 2014. Maybe three months ago. Do. Not. Recommend.

It installed fine. I had to search and install three or four drivers. Fine. But getting the webcam to work was a jumble of mismatched, often contradictory tools and instructions. After lots of hacky attempts, I finally got off-color, blocky, low frame rate video out of it. And there was one other aspect—maybe sleeping—where I tried a bunch of shit and never got it to work. Not to mention it was slower doing comparable tasks vs. MacOS

I have two other Linux machines in the house. They work great for what they need to do. But it’s not the right tool for every application, and anyone who says it is is just being silly.

Sounds like they’re doing a Forza Horizon kind of setup, where you drive around the open world to get from one structured race to another.

It’s kinda cool in that it keeps you in the world, but also annoying if you just wanna bang through races

Yeah pocketability.

I have a Deck, but unless I’m taking a backpack already for a longer trip, I’ll just pocket the Miyoo Mini or 6” Kobo ereader. Double if I’m heading somewhere shady

Bobby Fingers is good if you want sculpting with chill narration. (And bonkers subjects)

Wait wtf you put American cheese on your apple pie?!?

Are you from the US? I’ve never heard of that, and honestly I’m horrified and intrigued

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Huh, ok, maybe it’s different in the US, maybe I missed that.

Not that big a deal I guess—usually I’ll start it (live), hold up my hand to cover the top 90% of the TV (and mainly the score bug on the left), and hit the rewind button until it’s rewound to the beginning haha

Yeah it’s available in the US. Like $85/year.

My only complaint with it is there’s no button to “start race from beginning” while the race is in progress. Sometimes I like to sleep in on Saturday or Sunday ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Check out the electric mouse traps. Mouse walks in, there’s a snap sound, mouse is instantly dead. Worked well for me

About the same story for me, about a decade ago

It was also really nice for dating because it weeded out the women who were still on the fence, and let the other women know I wasn’t on the fence

The one uncut and unblurred one was a streamable link in a reddit comment in a smaller subreddit. Forget which though
