zemon, in What is the least SEO-fucked search engine?

I use Swisscows and Metager, and usually find what I need, if I don’t I retry the query with Startpage.

PR_freak, in What movie did you rewatch most often?

Fight club and shutter island

I probably saw them both around 15/20 times

redballooon,

Yea, fight club is big for me too. Don’t know shutter island, will check it out.

PR_freak,

You definitely should. Especially if you like the brainfuck genre

Also make sure you stay focused for the whole movie or you might lose some important details! Enjoy

I ever manually corrected and uploaded the subtitles (language and sync) of the .avi/DivX version of Fight Club. That’s like more than 20 years ago.

I have it in my iTunes Movies (or whatever it’s called) collection now, and watch it maybe once a year. The final song still gives me goosebumps when I hear it out in the wild.

That and Taxi Driver are my most watched movies. The Taxi Driver sounds and soundtrack are just so smoothing, I can comfortably sleep to it.

Bringing Out the Dead probably comes 3rd.

Contramuffin, in hard drive had all files jusr disappear

It sounds like you accidently clicked “move files” instead of “copy files.” I would recommend restoring from your backup that you just made

phil299, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Basically my heart is here now and this is where I come for social media , that does not mean I will not use reddit from time to time , but those times are getting less and less, my main reason to use reddit now is to promote lemmy. To give a better idea I spent probably an hour a day on reddit or two or three visits. Now I have not visited for over a week and recent visits have been a few minutes.

mad_harlequin, in Those who tried Linux and went back to Windows, what caused you to go back to Windows?

Basically visual arts software and some writing software. Additionally I have a free version of Ableton Live Lite 11 (so one music-making application as well) that came with my keyboard.

I mostly do photography, writing, and other visual arts type work on my two computers. I use quite a few photography and painting applications (Photoshop, ArtRage, Rebelle, Lightroom, Inspirit, and a few others; I’m also looking at BlackInk), as well as Scrivener and MS Office when I’m writing. I don’t know if any of those run well or at all in Linux or in Wine, etc. Also I stopped flirting with learning programming and there wasn’t much point maintaining a Linux machine after that. I think Linux is better than Windows all around, and I hate Windows, but it’s just because I use certain apps and from what I’ve heard and seen the Linux apps just aren’t as good.

TLDR, creative software that won’t run on Linux (to my knowledge, anyway).

Dafon, in What are your favorite "ugly" games?

I always thought Quake was pretty ugly, great fun though. And I guess much of it was probably supposed to be ugly.

dumpsterlid,

I dunno compared to other games of a similar or younger vintage like UT2004, that I had a ton of fun with at the time but looking back they have aged like milk in terms of aesthetics and core gameplay… I think the quake games actually have aged very well.

Geometrinen_Gepardi,

I always digged the earthy colour tones. Combined with the level designs it’s a cozy feeling game.

Although you are asking for lowkey ugly graphic gems, I’m gonna go for Vampire Survivors.

There’s that addictive gameplay loop that just keeps me going back

Ephera, (edited ) in What are your favorite "ugly" games?

Oh hi, have you considered joining the best Lemmy community, !dcss? 🙃

If you’re into zombies and post-apocalyptic survival, CDDA always looks like a blast to play: cataclysmdda.org

deadcatbounce, in It's possible to bathe a newborn kitten with fleas?
@deadcatbounce@reddthat.com avatar

You’ll find it much easier to bathe in water. Bathing cats in fleas is counterproductive.

Im28xwa, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Nope deleted my account 2 days ago

starfleet_reject, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I do, but I’m trying to quit

embit, in In which game did you spend the most hours?

Binding of Isaac, over 1170 hrs.

Have I seen everything or am I any good at it? Hell no.

sagethesagesage,

There are so many ways that Isaac is just a pain in the ass, horse shit, mf of a game

But somehow it’s just, like, immaculate.

CthulhuOnIce, in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

Boost was the only thing that made it tolerable, I couldn’t use the official reddit app even if I wanted to

LwL, in Those who tried Linux and went back to Windows, what caused you to go back to Windows?

So I didn’t quite try it to switch, rather installed linux to dualboot specifically because one game had lag issues on windows, and ultimately there are just 2 things keeping me from making linux the main and windows the backup.

One is game compatibility, while linux has come a long way it’s simply more convenient to be on windows which can effectively run everything (even if there are a few more performance issues at times).

The other is that I couldn’t find a DE of which I liked the look that could handle high refresh rate monitors properly. LXDE works for my purpose and I think it looks ok, but by design it just doesn’t feel as nice to use as windows.

Hated gnomes UX, liked KDE but it couldn’t handle my monitor. Wouldn’t wanna bother with trying many more options unless I actually know it will work with my hardware.

Tb0n3,

I’m not sure what you mean with the monitor thing. I’ve got a 165hz 4K panel with adaptive frame rate and it works out of the box in KDE settings for all of it. The only issue I ran I to is when you use hidpi modes it changes the reported resolution in proton which can be fixed with super resolution I think. But it is a problem.

LwL,

basically, all of this. My issue was that no matter what I tried, said game was clearly displayed at 60hz on my 240hz monitor (very fast movement so it’s extremely obvious, and it looked identical to if i set the monitor to 60hz in windows). Tried a few things but couldn’t get it to work.
