It’s ONN, but I’ve been told that it’s a Walmart brand, so I don’t question it because it’s cheap. That, and I haven’t seen that brand in any other stores.

The delusion that the world will inevitably turn out fine, despite occasionally saying the opposite. That, and the massive amount of stuff I still wanna do (games to play) and experiences to be had (music to be listened to, shows to be watched, computer mumbo jumbo to be learned)

Well, ever since the whole thing where macrohard/mojangles/whichever decided “you know what minecraft needs? CLIENT SIDE CHAT SCANNING AND CENSORSHIP!” I decided to switch over to Minetest and have never looked back.

I don’t mind big servers having censorship because that’s their deal and they can use whatever chat filters/plug-ins they want, but do we really need singleplayer to be censored? Or our chat messages to be scanned for things mc deem inappropriate? Absolutely not!

First, I couldn’t do this because I don’t have access to the server since it’s a Neocities page. Second, I have absolutely zero clue whether this would work.

I wouldn’t mind setting up a tiny 1 pixel dot in the very top corner of the site where nobody would ever click. You click it, you get sent to a page that will log your IP to a list of banned IPs. Don’t know if bots could get around that, but scrappers probably would get caught out by it.

Out of the games I’ve played, OSU. I am pretty average at rhythm games where it’s like Project Sekai or the Miku Diva style games where all you have to do it wait and click a button or tap somewhere specific at a fixed location on screen, but I absolutely suck at the whole move the mouse and click thing. Just as bad with mouse as when I tried with my beginners tablet.

Most other games I play anymore are games I know I’m at least decent at, so I don’t have many games I’d consider the hardest or even to compare those too. Though, while writing this and thinking about it, I’d say I might compare OSU to Vib-Ribbon in general, default songs or not, and possibly even give it a close second for difficulty. And that’s despite it being more of a wait and click type rhythm game in my eyes.

I use it on my laptop running a Debian based distro with KDE because I like how I can open the start menu thing. But for some reason I don’t do it on my desktop.

Love is a bit of an overstatement, but I got a cheap Walmart brand USB hub for my laptop since it only has a single USB male (female?) port and I needed more for my mouse and thumb drives. Definitely worth it to ensure I could save work to my thumb drive at college.

The only time I actually care is if it’s an indie game. If I like it enough I’ll buy it because I’m all for paying indie devs.

Considering I forgot about it and got back into it, bringing back memories, first slot definitely goes to Franklin.

I’d definitely say second would have to go to a show like Ed Edd n Eddy since I used to watch way too much of it, I think…

And third would absolutely be a toss up since I watched way too many cartoons growing up. So I’d probably have to go with Death Note since it’s the first anime I recognized as anime instead of just a cartoon back when I was in freshman year highschool.

Edit:

Someone mentioned Invader Zim and that would definitely be a contender because that show made me start to like weird and sometimes disturbing things. Here’s looking at you, Dark Harvest. Also saw an Angry Beavers mention. Definitely a close 3rd since beavers are my favorite animal thanks to that show and Franklin.

Couldn’t tell you what the oldest building in my city is, but I assume it’s either an old house in what I assume is the historic district. That, or the clocktower in the downtown park that was once part of a transcontinental railway station.

On a couple side notes, I know I did a class field trip in elementary school to one of the old buildings (don’t remember much about it besides a service elevator that if I recall was just held by rope and wasn’t electric), which compared to other places in America is nothing considering I found out my city was founded around 1881. Can’t say I approve of the part where they fought the natives for the land, but history is full of horrid things so there’s no use dwelling on something you can’t change.

Picking a favorite artist is hard, but I recently got a CD for the For Squirrels album Example a few days ago. Absolutely in love with it, every single song on it. Especially the CD version of Mighty K.C., which feels like an extended version of what plays during the official music video on yt.

Can’t say who’s my favorite, but they’re definitely up there.

Leftover dinner. Not a huge breakfast fan.

Been going at it little bit by little bit, but Baba Is You. Puzzle Is Hard. Game Is Fun. Brain Is Dumb.

That’s the exact reason I have only bought budget phones. That, and they actually have a sim/sd card slot.

Pre mid-summer 2011 and post mid-summer 2011.

This was before and after my 2nd open heart surgery. My parents had to make a quick decision: replace a valve with either a pig or mechanical valve. They chose mechanical valve and now I’ve been taking blood thinners and doing yearly blood draws for nearly 1 and a half devades. That was a barely more than half my life ago at this point, which is absolutely crazy to think about.

Edit: thought about it for a second while reading my post. Airtle less than half my life ago. Words are confusing.

I was born right before the new millennium.

As an arachnophobe, I personally made it my mission to block that community without looking so I’d never have to see it again. Can’t stand spiders.

Absolutely agree with point 2, not just for Mastodon, but others like here on Lemmy or Misskey or whatever it may be.

The process of finding an instance can sometimes be annoying because you might find an instance that sounds alright, like I did for Mastodon, and then find that there’s the problem of sign-ups not available. That, and signing up for the instance I got on then had a waiting period for account review and all that before I could do anything.

I assume, from what I’ve heard, all you gotta do for threads and bluesky is just sign up and start posting with less effort, which is what the majority of people want.

Have yet to personally block any instances. So far I think the closest I’ve come is blocking a spider community because fuck those hell spawns and a Minecraft community or two.

Edit:

Found out there’s more than I remember being blocked. Multiple mc communities, a cock community (, because that stuff ain’t for me and I remember accidentally clicking on one post from there by accident), a pussy community because I don’t come here for porn, a Sintendo community, some bikinibottomtwitter or something similarly named community (you can guess why), and for some reason an xbox community (couldn’t tell you why).

Also, I noticed for some reason I have someone from a different instance that I cannot remember why I blocked. Some guy from lemmt(dot)tf, so I have absolutely no clue since I have no idea what that instance is like, let alone remember anything about that account.

Fighting piracy is like a caveman with a pointy stick trying to fight a 3 headed hydra from Greek mythology. The only way for them to truly defeat the hydra is an idea they would never accept because they aren’t allowed to treat customers/consumers as people.
