I didn't say that. I said why pick Discord from the myriad of other solutions?

What's wrong with a tried and tested open forum? Hell, a lemmy server or even subreddit would suffice.

I mean, don't use walled gardens as your primary community base in the first place right? This is a 'solution' to a problem that doesn't need to exist.

I fell there's still 12 months of dev to go in this game before it's ready, when they add the missing stuff (now called DLCs) and address all the bugs and stupid design decisions they have to walk back.

Have you tried that shit they call "great northern"?

I've got a bridge to sell to anyone who believes these liars

So the enshitification finally makes it way to firefox... it's a sad time

Got to distract from the real issues somehow. Gotta keep that wealth extraction and concentrating system of exploitation alive. Can't have the slave rising up to overthrow their masters again...

Pure propaganda. We all know the US are the harkonnen and we are at the point in the timeline where the emperor (capitalist class) has handed control over to another power and harkonnen have commenced their counter-attack under the hidden support of the emperors forces.

If the kernal edge is 6.13, why are many popular distros like mint still shipping with much older builds? (6.8 in the latest mint released yesterday)

Should be mandatory public health warnings on all tabloids, like cigarettes. Just as bad for your health, probs worse

Just finished a first attempt at a pilsner urquell clone, will see how it turned out in a few weeks. Looking to do a cheats kriek (cherry) if anyone has a solid recipe to recommend

 

These words appear on almost all food labels these days, but they are kind of meaningless. Take something like those flavoured waters, "ingredients: water, flavour". They taste amazing, there's definitely a bunch of 'stuff' in there, but they don't tell us what it is on the label?

I thought we used to have number codes for additives and what-not that they had to disclose so we knew what was in it. Did the food labelling laws change somehow? Or are these new additives something different which can just hide behind the word 'flavour'? Genuinely curious if anyone has some idea, there doesn't seem to be any explanations on the food standards website...

 

I'm using a windows partition for PCVR to a Quest 3 via steam. Some games seem to struggle despite a pretty beefy card (6750 XT).

My question is whether using adrenaline is a good idea with VR? It doesn't seem smart enough to realise im using VR when it's running, instead choosing settings which match my monitor, meaning it's picking the wrong up scaling and other settings for my headset. Do most people just disable this software, or are there settings which help VR?

 

Does anyone else not draft as much as you would on arena because of how expensive it is?

For a casual drafter that just wants to play around with the new set for maybe 1 or 2 drafts a week, the cost feels so ridiculous I just don't play. I would love to draft MKM but I cant justify the cost to simply play a digital card game. With so many other ways to monetise the game via cosmetics now, it would be nice of WotC to ease up a little and make drafting more free-to-play friendly.

The topic of UB is continuing to create controversy as the number of non-Magic IP products explodes. The Professor put out a recent video on the topic predicting a future Universes Within product to make up for all the unique UB cards being added to the mix, but looks like MaRo has quickly shut that idea down.

What are players who don't like UB supposed to do when there are no Magic versions of those cards? This is now just reality.

 

It seems the only way now is to navigate to the community you want to post it, and menu>post. Is there a way to add a post button on the bottom bar perhaps, then have a post screen with a community selection? If not, might be a cool idea for future maybe if enough people think that would be useful. Cheers

 

I saw an article about a blue cheese beer by some US brewer. Got me thinking, I wonder that this would go? Anyone have an idea how to achieve this? I can only presume throwing some blended cheese into the fermenter would just cause a yeast infection.

 

My friend and I have spent far too long searching on old DVD and Bluray forums for spoilers on how to access the easter egg “Chimp Commentary” supposedly available on the BluRay edition of Tim Burtons infamous Planet of the Apes reboot.

Hoping that maybe someone else out there may know how we can amuse our tiny ape brains by finding how to enable this easter egg. We’ve tried every combination of menu buttons and no online resources seem to work for the Bluray edition of this film. Has anyone else been able to find this thing?

 

Looking at picking up a quest 3, but want to try one out before I buy. Doesn’t seem like the usual places (JB, EB, department stores) offer any way to test them? Does anyone know of retailers who have demos?

 
 
 

I’ve been using the notes app to write short thoughts, notes, poems, random ideas, etc and have found it really clunky for this. It has no simple way to edit formatting while typing or after, and a few other designs that seem to distract me. Wondering if anyone else had found this also, and maybe looked around for a better app?
