It would just be nice to know what the heck happened.

I view the gaming distros as being about out of box. I don't see anything improving performance outside of how the kernel compiles but I doubt any do anything special.

yeah but was it cool? Were most kids in high school gaming at your time? Im curious because im a bit over 50 so maybe 1989 or something was the floodgate year. I mean for 55+ to be such a large percentage it would mean a good percentage of the population itself must game in realtion to younger gen right. So I figure something close to 100% of teenagers game nowadays but when I was in high school it might have been under 10%

Im sorta surpised as even when I was in high school video games were something that was considered nerdy. Most had played them but it was considered a bit like comic books, cartoons, and toys. Something you grew out of. I would expect it to not be a major share until I am well over 55+. I though at first maybe it was just people getting new into it like mobile but the article says they make up 23% of the pc gamers and 11% of console (heck I don't even play console anymore). I wonder if some were influence by their kids?

thats sorta funny for me as I tend to play hack/stealth.

[–] HubertManne@kbin.social 2 points 5 months ago

thats how I play it. fine for me and my wife plays on pc and I don't see it as way better.

Yeah sorta cracks me up this thing along with the subway chicken thing given actually plant analogues often cost more than the meat. If a place can put plant matter and lower my meat consumption while the meal is tasty. Well im all for it.

my brothers house second bathroom was split into two with one being a sink and toilet and a shower in the room with the laundry units. Its actually great as it virtually give you three bathrooms in the sense someone can shower while another person is using the toilet. well I guess that can always be done but uh. its better.

this is why in any internet conversation it never matters to me if someone wants to bring up their race, sex, orientation, group affiliation, age, whatever as being significant to the conversation. your argument is one human to another (sheesh im not even joking this time on being human) and it has to be relevant on only its merits. that being said if they have a personal anecdote that seems believable I might take it into account.

Yes I sorta get that. I remember when optical mice dropped in price I bought one for basically everyone K new.

 

I can only get my subscriptions and not the all feed. I feel like maybe I am only getting kbin content.

 

I have not seen an option so replying to a thread seems to be the only way that I can tell.

 

So when someone submitted a url at least at one point it would show up on the right and you could block it. So if someone posted a newsweek link you could block any link postings from like newsweek.com or maybe reddit.com or google.com. Lately though I have not been able to. It seemed to disapear at some point. I have not seen it as an option in a long time.

 

So im pretty happy with users just being able to block and control things themselves but there has been posts from this somali call girls account where I feel like the extra step of reporting is warranted.

 

Where I am in america you can get a buy a gun when you reach 18, alcohol when you reach 21 and cough syrup when you reach 40.

 

I tend to use maps from a search browser and it suddenly occurred to me that if the search engine I used defaulted to open street maps I would use it. Do any search engines default map searches to open street maps?

 

30 DAYS TO GET MY DATA! So I put in a data requet last week with reddit and it said it would take a few days. Yesterday I inquired to its status as I had not received anything and they repsonded that it might take 30 days. Im not sure if this is bs to keep their account numbers up or they are just innundated with requests.

Chicken grown from animal cells, not from slaughtered birds, can now be sold in the U.S. The Agriculture Department issued approvals Wednesday to California firms Upside Foods and Good Meat to sell the products, known as “lab-grown” or “cultivated” meat. The meat is grown in steel tanks, using cells that come from a living animal, a fertilized egg or a special bank of stored cells. The goal is to eliminate harm to animals and drastically reduce the environmental impacts of raising them. The meat will initially be sold only at upscale restaurants.
