    I am happy that people are mad about the death of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. But I am also saddened that it took their deaths for people to care. If I was killed by ICE next week, would anyone care? Do I not deserve angry protesters?

    Highly disappointed with this comment section right now. If you feel divided by this post then maybe take time to reflect. You’re not a villain for only being sad about he recent killings, but getting mad at Bad for posting this is a shame.


  • This one implies that a random man in public is a sexual predator. That’s a hateful position

    Holy shit, media literacy is truly dead. If people can’t read a one-page comic and understand that it’s making fun of pedophiles (literally says the fucking word) and not “men in general”, then we have to reset or something.

  • I started daily driving a year ago with Fedora Silverblue (Atomic) which uses GNOME because people said Atomic distros are friendlier to beginners, and Fedora already had a good reputation for working fairly well out the box. The only issue I had was a Bluetooth issue, and you can rollback to previous kernel versions to wait until a fix is made. If I was just a browse the internet and play games on Steam kind of person, I think I would have loved it. But I did try to tinker and do things that were far to difficult to figure out how to change on an Atomic distro, especially since I couldn’t find instructions or documentation for my distro, so I moved to regular Fedora KDE after a few months and I absolutely love it.

    No annoying pop-ups, no stalking, no weird shit being enabled by default, just an OS that does what YOU want it to do. I am comfortable with using the terminal due to taking a Linux course, but I feel that you could do a lot without having to use it. Plus, most sites and github projects give you basic installation guides anyway. The only two issues I have had were Bluetooth and my touchpad not working. The solution for these two issues were simple, but I couldn’t find the information for literal months. I solved the Bluetooth issue by doing a power reset, apparently you have to do that when you get a kernel update. The touchpad issue was it disabled itself in the system settings one day. That’s literally it. My computer hasn’t blown up, my mic and camera always work, I have found FOSS alternatives for almost everything, I don’t game much on laptop but I’ve gotten old Japanese 32-bit games to work on Lutris, etc.

    Maybe I’ll distro-hop in the future, but it’s only for the pure curiousity and fun, not out of necessity or broken tech. In fact, Linux just makes tech fun. It makes my laptop feel brand new, and makes me go “Wow. I love using technology.”

    The only reason I still have my Windows partition is because my college uses Lockdown Browser for online tests, and I don’t want to fuck up a no-retakes test or do testing in person. Once I graduate, I’m probably nuking that partition, I feel like barfing every time I boot into it.




  • I’m not a child but young enough to live with my parents, and I have family members who don’t actually understand the stuff I like, so the last 2 or 3 Pokemon games I’ve gotten were because of them lol. They do this with anime I never even watch too. Whatever’s popular, they’ll buy it…

    I still haven’t been motivated to finish Sc/Vi, it’s just that boring. Sw/Sh was also a tad mediocre, but I still enjoyed parts of it. At least LA was fun, albiet too short imo.

    Rant About Pokemon

    But yeah the only thing I like about the new Pokemon games are the characters, music, and designs. Difficulty is abysmal, some villans/teams are fucking dumb (Sw/Sh was ass), and the day-one DLC is killing me. And while I’m far from a graphics snob, when seeing how old Pokemon games like Wii Battle Revolution had such good animation, and new open world games like ToTK and Xenoblade look and perform well, it just makes me wish GameFreak didn’t own the fucking series. And most of all is the lack of creativity.

    We haven’t had a PMD game in almost 6 years, snd it’s been a DECADE since the last brand new PMD. Rangers was shot dead out back. Conquest is a corpse. The battle colosseum/revolution series is a skeleton. The last Rumble game was 3DS and was a pay to play mess. Same thing with Shuffle. Fuck Trozei, Dash, Pokepark, all of them. Hell, even Duel was kinda fun and it was a mobile game. I severly doubt if we’ll ever see any of these series again anytime soon. And it’s a shame because these are some of my favorite games in the whole franchise, that I literally poured hundreds of hours into.

    Having said that, anyone got any good Mystery Dungeon games to recommend? I tried one of the Chocobo ones and put it down after like 3 hours…





  • Man, I love Lemmy.

    People keep complaining and making posts like “ugh the Americans are always crying on my feed with lazy politcal posts, where’s the funny?” or, “Guys we really need to post more to make the Fediverse more active and friendly,” and then get mad when someone posts more than twice a day.

    The account has posted like what, 9 times over the past five days? None of the posts featured AI slop or politics, nor did they only post a single artist or ideology (ie showing signs of being an advertiser/influencer). And we do have purposeful bot accounts on here, so being a bot isn’t inherently bad (especially in dead/low-activity communities).

    We have no karma to farm on Threadiverse, so why are people freaking out about a couple of new frequent posters? It’d be different if it was all slop, politics, or advertising, but they’re literally just normal accounts. Do we want active users or not?

    Nah, the artist is Lainey.molnar on instagram who hss been posting since 2020, at least according to this proxy website. Her artsyle pretty much always looked like this, and AI art definitely wasn’t that good back in 2020.

    Funnily enough, her stuff is supposed to be abpit women empowerment and overall left-leaning stuff, but I always got a weird feeling from her posts and art. Lo and behold there’s a long ass reddit post about her craziness (natural treatments for mental illness, alcoholism, potentially faking queer identity, etc.) Also, I guess she might be an original art stealer, aka a tracer lol. At least tracing still requires some effort.

    NOTE: Just because this artist is a bad person doesn’t mean people can be bigots. Don’t reply to this with some “huh looks like the SJW feminist was actually bad, women ☕️” shit. I will block you.

    EDIT: Read the reddit post again and apparently she’s been known to recreate her image by creating and destroying blogs over and over. Idk when she started drawing, but she used to have a myspace blog, so once again, not AI. Just human slop.



  • You can install Firefox but the version with the more privacy built in called Firefox Focus. It installs an extension called Firefox Focus. It will block ads in Safari and Firefox. You need to enable it under settings > apps > safari > extensions.

    Damn, wish I knew this while I was stuck on iOS. I hated Safari and refused to use it so I just lived with ads until I started using NextDNS

    When I actually did choose to buy from Chick-fil-A in the past, it tasted fantastic, especially the spicy chicken sandwich. Compared to most fast food places, they’re miles better in both taste and service. But I don’t wanna support conservative Christians that are homophobic so I choose not to eat there anymore.

    It’s unfortunate that they’re Christo-fasc, cause everyone else is mediocre or awful (well, except maybe Popeyes Chicken sandwich) compared to them.
