The GIF file format needs to die. I’m glad lemmy doesn’t support it out of the box. That shit was designed for animated images with a few frames and nothing more.
A big one for me is Fallout 1. I only played it for the first time a few years ago and it is one of the only games where as soon as I finished it I wanted to start it again. The only reason I didn’t was to play Fallout 2. There is an extremely valid argument that Fallout 2 is better, but the pacing of 1 is so good. It opened up a whole (niche) genre of games I thought I didn’t like, isometric crpgs, especially ones with turn based combat, relatively low player power, and serious consequences.
The other game I could replay over and over again was Metal Gear Solid 1. In my opinion it is the best in the series relative to its time of release, if that makes sense.
Might be helpful if you have more than one phone so if the learning curve ends up screwing you up you still have some kind of functional phone to use in the interim
You don’t buy a genuine battery, they are indeed too old. There are third party manufacturers making new batteries for old thinkpads, kingsener and greencell are two. I have kingsener in my homelab X230(Arch) and T440p(NixOS/Silverblue) and am very happy, basically better than new(more recent battery tech).
Yeah I’ve noticed that I can no longer add floating bar for LG v30. I can use it on phones where it’s already downloaded but I can no longer add it to any new phones and if I delete it I can never use it again.
Which is strange cuz it’s still completely functional
Yeah I’ve had this problem with video games in the era of live service. I bought this game memory from Mars, I never really played it and when I finally went back to play it it was completely dead.
I didn't become an avid poster until I started using wefwef.app - it's a great implementation and I use it even on my desktop (in a mobile-sized window).
The best for privacy are: Tails, that runs on live-cd; Whonix, which you run in vms; Qubes, which is an os that runs all your user programs inside vms (running whonix inside qubes is the most powerful privacy setup).
I did spend like $40 on a battery for a 10 year old laptop a few years ago so that I could keep using it for troubleshooting a remote network I setup up awhile ago because it’s cheaper than a new laptop.
Personally I’d see if you can find a new compatible battery not necessarily an OEM battery though as being new it’s probably going to last awhile.
How would you know if it’s actually new, though? I’d assume even third-party replacements have been sitting on a shelf for years.
It’s really just making me think that laptops are terrifyingly wasteful and I’ve been right to not bother owning one.
