@sub_ Yep, I'm using #Exult. I find it easier than regular #DOSBox. I used the files installed by GOG for Exult Linux. And true, I like the QoL features they added!
Another person’s perceptual experience may not be the same as ours.
This is Fundamental to understanding the experience of #autistic folks. I always assumed everyone perceived the way I do & I’m just a sook who can’t cope. This is not true! I am sooo glad my partner now understands this.
Same applies to information processing & seeing patterns. I thought everyone can see what I do. They don’t. We’re ok.
It’s bleeding obvious once it’s put this way, innit. I struggled all my life to understand my differences w sensory &information processing, thinking of each bit as a different issue & me as sooky &broken. Framing as neurodivergence over the past 15yr (since my early 50s) has been a revelation. Reframing is slow work & there’s a lot to grieve for, but through it all the company of nd peers is THE BEST THING.
Well, it wouldn’t make any sense in Candy Crush, but otherwise… I can’t think of a genre with jumping that couldn’t benefit from some kind of double jumping
Really excellent dual-author piece in the Nation on why separating 'types' of autism into different diagnoses is harmful to all autistic people. #actuallyautistic
Gifted autistic here. I have a very spikey profile. Spatial thinking and word association are off the charts (literally broke the test) and two others are medium. Worst is memory at „normal“ + debilitating trauma puts me at 90% disabled.
"Convergence of low points on a spiky profile" is a good theory; comorbidity is also a good theory. I don't think we have enough data to even guess which, yet. But ultimately I don't think it matters ... the solutions are the same regardless.
Things October 31 is besides #Halloween: #Reformation Day, celebrating the date in 1517 when Martin #Luther nailed his 95 theses to a church door in Wittenberg--or did he?
Modern scholarship long tended to dismiss the episode as fictional, citing lack of contemporary evidence. 1/n
Things October 31 is besides #Halloween: #Reformation Day, celebrating the date in 1517 when Martin #Luther nailed his 95 theses to a church door in Wittenberg--or did he?
In 2018, 2 historians from the historical Luther sites set forth the case for the authenticity of the tradition that he nailed the 95 theses to the church door OTD 1517:
Things October 31 is besides #Halloween: #Reformation Day, celebrating the date in 1517 when Martin #Luther nailed his 95 theses to a church door in Wittenberg--or did he?
Book historian Andrew Pettegree, who accepts the tradition, makes the key points in Brand Luther (2017):
Even Luther did not see the Theses as extraordinary
Author clearly explains how private equity firms are destroying essential industries, how they avoid legal responsibility for the disastrous consequences, who’s empowering them and how they can be stopped.
Private equity’s #enshittification is to blame for much of the worst aspects of health care, housing crisis, the economy as well as the deepening wealth gap.
oh he didn't know what private equity was until 3-4 months into writing his book... and his employer is the Department of Justice which is the government? He looks a little egotistical considering he doesn't have much experience, feels like a smear job.
and his interviewers are even more pushing anti-capitalist rhetoric... and they make things about specific politicians...
I think they're just upset capitalists figured out how to dodge taxes by using debt lol
this is sounding less like an interesting book =[
I don't think he knows anything deep, I think this whole thing is an opinion piece
Damn I really do like the lemmy community more. On other social media aggregators, people are flipping the fuck out.
The more reasonable discourse about this article, on Lemmy is just healthier for everyone’s mental state.
That being said, I tend to agree this is a nothing burger and Leer Decks is likely fine for a few more years. It’s a low budget show and the writing is on point making a broad range of fans happy. I’ve heard this show has actually brought in a lot of new Trek fans too.
if you want to make your posts more convenient to us lemmings, don’t mention/tag until the second paragraph
the first paragraph gets converted into a title with the ugly formatting, but as long as the first paragraph is plaintext (or uses lemmy formatting) it looks fine
@neilhimself Honestly, this is how I expected it to go. The worst thing that could happen to 90% of the actors is that they can just temporary find another job for the same amount of money. Or they could just work with studios who give them a better contract. The business executives don't have any other option.
@neilhimself Once again …… I am sooooo tired of TRYING to read articles that either want you to sign up for membership or ask 20 questions before you can read. ggggrrrrrrrrr
When a population becomes distracted by trivia, when cultural life is redefined as a perpetual round of entertainments, when serious public conversation becomes a form of baby-talk, when, in short, a people become an audience, and their public business a vaudeville act, then a nation finds itself at risk; #culture-death is a clear possibility.
How did i miss that?!? Yes, that is one of the ones i've read. Considering when it was written, and before the internet/digital age, WOW!!! That is one i'd like to re-read. I've yet to get anyone else to read it, but i keep trying :)
Thanks for sharing!
Backup truecharts apps on TrueNAS scale.
Could someone please tell me if there is a way to backup Truecharts apps that I have installed on TrueNAS Scale? @selfhosted@OpenSource@selfhost@truenas
I really like truenas for nas but I agree with you on running vms/docker somewhere else. I ended up keeping truenas for the mass storage (the only thing I run on it is one virtual machine to hold proxmox backupserver on an ivol). I think the much better home platform for vms is proxmox. You get ar eally nice gui that makes everything pretty easy, it’s debian under the hood and with proxmox backup server you can very easily backup your virtual machines. It’s also very easy to mount nfs or cifs shares into docker containers so you can keep the bulk data of your docker environment directly on the nas, which makes managing backups dead simple.
