Movie discussion posts?
Are we going to have movie discussions here like /r/movies used to do? I want to talk about and hear what people thought of Oppenheimer. Is there already a post for Oppenheimer/should I just make one? (Sorry, I’m using Lemmy from the Thunder app and can’t figure out if I’m able to search for posts)
I'm still blown away by GTA IV's openness
Just started playing GTA IV on the Steam Deck after having it sitting in my Steam library for years. It’s really fun. I really like the protagonist, the setting, and it’s openness. It’s a bit more tame than GTA V which I have played as well and I prefer the more subdued tone.
Picopresso
Any Picopresso users on here? How are you enjoying it? I’m tempted, but a bit worried it’s a gadget that might just end up unused.
Maccy D’s coffee
Tried the coffee at McDo last night. Friends had told me for years that it is very serviceable and always fresh but I’m fairly snooty when it comes to coffee. Anyhow, in my opinion, they were right. I’ve had plenty of homemade stuff that was far worse. Price doesn’t break the bank, at a buck fifty, and it comes out at a...

Don't let your elderly relatives fall for scams
Chances are most of us here are pretty tech-savvy and can spot phishing scams a mile off, but the older generation who haven’t grown up with the internet are now having to use it and are an easy target for scammers. Check in with your family and friends to make sure Granddad isn’t sending money to someone claiming to be...

What is your favorite episode of The Next Generation?
I’ll never forget running the house losing my mind when in the opening of Cause and Effect the Enterprise is destroyed before the credits even rolled. My parents thought I hurt myself I was making so much racket while watching my 15" TV in the back bedroom.
Lower Decks is the Star Trek show that we didn't know we needed.
It’s incredible that this show will get to share in the Star Trek canon, and is proof that at least SOMEONE at Paramount is an actual Star Trek fan.
What's the best Xmas gift you've ever got?
Actually, let’s be inclusive here. What are some of the best gifts in general you’ve received?
Those with parents who hold opposite political views than you, how do you go about disagreeing?
To be more specific, my parents raised my siblings and me to “respect” them, saying "yes sir, and “no ma’am” to everything they said. Spankings, all of that. Typical super conservative evangelical parents. Before I learned better, I was that way too. I went to college and since then have embraced the left more and...
People whose original language isn't English, which dialect did you try to imitate while learning?
Opinion - AI is the future of gaming.
We’ve seen an explosion of AI in the last year or so, from chatGPT to various ai art and chatbot programs, I think the next big step will be heavy AI integration into gaming. While the technology isn’t quite there yet, with the speed in which it is advancing, I have no doubt that soon we’ll be seeing full modern AI...
NVMe Recommendation
Looking for some brains trust recommendations on good NVMe drives to use for home servers. I’ve managed to get Samsung 980 Pros for good prices in the past and haven’t had any issues but I need a few more 1TB drives and wondering if there’s some cheaper options people have had good experiences with?
programming.dev down?
I’ve subscribed to quite a few communities there, and now they seem to be offline. Does anyone know how to reach the admin?
What do you guys think about FreeBSD?
What makes BSD stand out as its own system? I’ve been thinking about installing it in a new computer mainly for reading but I don’t know much about it.
Better tools than Stacher for downloading large amount of Youtube videos?
I’ve been using Stacher for a while to backup entire Youtube channels I semi regularly go back to watch their older stuff....
Streaming Subs During the Strike - Keep or Drop? For Now, Keep.
I don’t keep ongoing pay subscriptions to streaming services. Not a judgment of those who do; just my personal preference. I’ve done one month of Disney+ at a deep discount (to see season one of The Mandalorian) and two months of Paramount+, both times in the past. With Lower Decks’ upcoming 4th season and SNW’s “Those...

What food is considered a local specialty of where you live?
[Meta] Happy to see non-relevant posts being removed. Thank you mods for your work
I know I am probably violating all the rules at once, but I didn’t really know where to post this.
what messaging app do you use?
So here’s the thing, every time I try to move away from Facebook messenger I run into the same problem, nobody else in my friends or family actually want to use a secure, private messenger app like signal or telegram, my wife, my parents, my in-laws, my friends they’re ALL on Facebook and they will never take signal...
