Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is way better than anyone gives it credit for. It’s a really fun movie.

I also really like Vanilla Sky even though critics hate it. It’s a weird but good movie.

How Equilibrium has a 40% RT rating is beyond me. It’s amazing.

What are your criteria for upvoting/downvoting?

I hate that I always compare Lemmy to Reddit, but Reddit used to have (not sure if they still do) guidelines called “Reddiquette” that included guidelines about upvoting and downvoting. I don’t remember the specifics (and sending too much of my browser traffic to Reddit makes me feel dirty) but one of the guidelines was...

simple, (edited )

Upvoting: I like this post or it adds to the discussion/community (I want to see more of this)

Downvoting: This is spam, off topic, etc. or the poster is being an arse (in general, I want to see less of this)

Simple as.

What is the deal with Palestine and Hamas?

For mental health reasons, I had taken myself out of most political topics. But lately there seems to be a surge of talk about Palestine and Hamas (forgive me if I spelled this wrong). I do know it’s something to do with land rights, but it also seems to be so much more at the same time. I’m not trying to start any fights. I...

and Israel responded (they had a right to) but it’s debatable whether the response was appropriate.

Are you kidding me? Their “response” was bombing ~2 million innocent people out of their homes and telling them that they shouldn’t have been there. Imagine if someone from Japan bombed China, and China’s response was bombing random people in Tokyo.

Their response was absolutely not appropriate unless you love genocide. The situation is not nuanced, people act like it is so they don’t have to take a side.

and optimally performant DE

Except it’s the worst DE in terms of performance. Using KDE instead of Gnome made a big difference in my weaker laptop.

simple,

GNOME is the best performing modern DE outside of lightweight nice DEs.

This is straight up not true, GNOME is a memory hog and uses almost twice as much as KDE. I’m idling ~4% CPU usage on an i5 7300HQ, which is just barely better than yours. There’s a reason the Steam Deck opted to use KDE and not Gnome.

KDE is an absolute mess and is a hobbyist DE in comparison to the professional GNOME.

As someone who used gnome for two years, hell no. Gnome is trying too hard to be minimalist and is lacking basic features that you have to use extensions for. Extensions which, by the way, break each update and have their own bugs. I also had to use gnome tweaks for basic crap like disabling mouse acceleration. KDE is a much more polished experience for people who actually use computers, but gnome is okay if you’re just looking for something simple that looks smooth.

I’m just eager to know how much laptops will cost with the new Qualcomm chip. I don’t want to pop champagne too early only to realize that new ARM laptops cost $2000.

simple,

Get in the robot, Remy.

You posted your comment 4 times. Anyways, here: knowyourmeme.com/…/saddam-husseins-hiding-place

simple,

Realme phones are pretty good for the price. You may need to remove a couple of bloat applications and tune some settings after getting it though.

simple,

I blocked it ages ago so I don’t get notifications every time I post a video.

simple,

We’ve been warned, I expected performance to be rough but ~35fps on a 4090 is a new low for me.

simple,

No, but you can link to an external video. Unfortunately videos are very taxing on servers (and therefore expensive to deal with), so it’s unlikely we’ll see them in Lemmy in the near future.

Have fun!

Edit: Fixed link, the ampersand is still broken on Lemmy.

simple,

Have you read Vattu? It’s hands down one of my favorite comics ever.

Stand Still, Stay Silent is also pretty good.

simple,

Thanks for the offer, but I’m not interested in being a mod. Trying not to spend too much time online. Good luck hosting the community, though!

simple,

Speaking of, has anyone from lemmy.film explained why it went down? It’s getting frustrating seeing instance admins disappear with no warning.

simple,

Key to being a good mod is to have very clear rules, so when you warn/ban someone you can point to the rule number and not get into an argument about it.

A group of people united or classified together on the basis of common history, nationality, or geographic distribution.

What else would you call it?

simple,

and that racism means “the idea that there are races”.

This isn’t true at all. Racism means being derogatory to other races. There are different races and it’s completely normal to acknowledge that. So no, it’s not racist to say you’re white.

simple,

Apparently we’re not missing much.

simple,

Literally the only thing I know about this movie is that the main character is gay, Disney really tried to make that a selling point.
