You could always try having some fun with wigs. Lots of options there, from realistic to completely outlandish. You could even try cutting & styling one if you wanted it to look similar.
I guess we’ll just have to eat the rich now to find out. 🤷🏻♀️
You know, for science.
It’s supposed to be Potta One for serif, Klee One for sans-serif, and MesloLGS NF for monospace.
I never said I wasn’t going to vote.
Not all of us live in swing states. It’s weird that so many people act as if that’s the case online.
Wow that’s pricey. That’s like $1200 in today money apparently.
🤔 Definitely sus. Maybe the thought process was that it would seem weak or disgraceful to step down after the debate, so they wanted a more natural way of having him exit.
Top right is Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.
I recently set up LineageOS on my rpi4 for this. With that setup, I think you’d be able to use the Android version of Moonlight. I haven’t used Moonlight before though, so not sure how good of an experience that is on Android. Since the official images didn’t support Android TV, I ended up using this version. Performance is a little slow in the menus (and very slow in the Twitch app, but that’s also true on the fire stick). I’ll probably give rpi5 a shot at some point in the near future to see if that offers better performance.
Bluetooth game controller works quite well (a little too well, the box notifies me when controllers are trying to sync), and works with apps like RetroArch and Jellyfin. I think it’s supposed to support AirPlay or whatever the Android equivalent is too, but I haven’t tried that. I also had to install gapps to sign into YouTube, but most other streaming apps I tried worked without it. Some of them require specific Android TV devices though, so a 3rd party app store or side loading may be needed for some of them.
I originally wanted to use Plasma Bigscreen with Waydroid, but I ran into the same problem of not being able to find an Android TV image. I did try building it myself, but that was taking too long so I eventually gave up.
Older generations didn’t fail us, the bourgeoisie did. Don’t let capitalists get away with reframing class struggle as generational struggle when that’s not what it is. Poor folks of past generations weren’t the problem. It was the ones wealthy enough to have political influence and control that were the problem. And that will continue being true for future generations so long as capitalism exists.
I did this for about a year on a Steam Deck after my desktop broke down, though with the caveat that I still had my Manjaro laptop as a fallback as well. Had to write some scripts to reinstall packages after updates (since system is supposed to be read-only by default) which wasn’t very fun, but it worked well enough for a while. Only reason I moved on was to get a better gaming rig for Baldur’s Gate 3.
Moonstone Island is similar to Stardew Valley, with some Pokemon and Slay the Spire sprinkled in.
Graveyard Keeper also fits in that genre, though it’s more management than farming.
Or if you’re looking for a cozy puzzle game: Cocoon, Unpacking, or A Little to the Left are some good ones.
If you’re looking for something trans coded, there’s some shorter games that are pretty good: Secret Little Haven, A Normal Lost Phone.
I’d describe Ikenfell as a cozy RPG. You save the game by finding a cat to pet.
And Iris and the Giant I think is the only relaxing deck builder I’ve seen. Very calming.
I relate to 6 quite a lot. I always said I never wanted a traditional wedding. It wasn’t until after I came out to myself and I imagined myself as a bride, that I realized I was mistaken.
I also started transitioning at 30, for what it’s worth. Would have been nice to have the effects of HRT earlier, but it’s also nice coming out while financially independent and without parental authority over your bodily autonomy.
I wrote about my experience here if anyone is interested in reading. The short version is that Life is Strange got me to actively question whether I was trans, as a result of me being absolutely obsessed with it and trying to figure out why I related so much to characters that were nothing like me on the surface. In all honesty, if it weren’t Life is Strange, it would have been something else. But that sure did speed up the process a bit.
It took me 3 years after asking myself directly if I was trans. I felt the need to figure things out independently for some reason. Partly out of shame and internalized transphobia I suppose.
I’ve been wanting to write more about it too - particularly about the weeks following that realization, which consisted of multiple revelations/epiphanies from recontextualizing things that had happened in my past under this new lens of understanding.
On a much earlier version of Lemmy you could. At some point they pushed a change to disallow invisible characters, and that’s what broke it. So I had set my name with a trans flag prior to that update
Nice! I’ve been wanting to add pronouns to mine but couldn’t without removing the trans flag. Glad it’s fixed
One of the funniest signs for me was when trying to design a VR game with a friend. For some background, it was a first person game where you can play pool remotely with others. With more of an emphasis on the social aspect than the game of pool. Didn’t end up getting past the design phase though (yay ADHD).
At some point in our conversation, I brought up player character model - whether you should even have one, what is should look like, etc. I mentioned being able to select or change gender of this model, but he seemed a bit confused by that, and told me it would feel a bit wrong or uncomfortable in VR to look down at yourself and see a different gender. This confused the shit out of me, so I responded something like, “Really? I’d actually prefer looking down and seeing myself as a woman.”
It would be another few years before my egg finally cracked.
I agree that enjoying her work doesn’t necessarily make you a biggot, but it does mean you aren’t an ally. Your money absolutely does make a difference. She sees continued support of her works as support of her anti-trans ideas.
I’m out of the loop, what’s the deal with dolphins?
