  • What are some Useful Search Terms / Keywords?

    Jump

  • I'm not entirely sure this is what you're after, but "reddit" makes it a lot easier to fix software issues, at least with Windows. Regular search engines are SEO'd to death or you get the Microsoft forums where a "experienced expert" suggests steps OP already performed to then recommend a full system wipe.

    I wish Lemmy had this trove of info and I try to put solutions on here as they are asked, but it will take time

  • What is your favourite less well known app/software?

    Jump

  • Be like me, just make your mouse cursor neon green and huge.

  • What is your favourite less well known app/software?

    Jump

  • Yeah, it's been solid/stable but no new developments until 1.3 is coming. You can download the pre-release version if you want to try it again, because that version has zoom options. I imagine that's what you missed, unless you meant something else with older versions not handling high res well

  • What is your favourite less well known app/software?

    Jump

  • Greenshot is free, open-source, and the built-in image editor is perfect (for my use-case, ymmv). ShareX is also FOSS but more well-known.

  • What are your notable stories of selling or giving away things online?

    Jump

  • Cheers!

  • What are your notable stories of selling or giving away things online?

    Jump

  • That's dope, this still a thing? I have a PC with no use for it, would love to donate it to a good cause.

    (I only ask because I'm 99% sure we're in the same country)

  • This is the way. Don't be scared to block communities or even users that posts content you're not interested in. Eventually you will have curated your feed

    What's one beauty standard that you don't agree with?

    Jump

  • Lol you're catching some votes but we've strayed from what OP was asking.

    OP asking about beauty standards and people are straight up saying shit like "overalls" and "big boobs".

    Not bad opinions on their own but far from beauty standards

  • It's June 2025. What are you looking forward to in the next 6 months?

    Jump

  • What you listed is what escorts do, minus the sex. Hence why I combined the two professions.

    Do you have a partner? If so, how does your work influence your private life?

  • It's June 2025. What are you looking forward to in the next 6 months?

    Jump

  • I don't mean this in a demeaning way, but isn't that just an escort + prostitution?

    You're getting paid for company is one, getting paid for sex is two.

  • As fans reject Switch 2 game-key cards, former Nintendo marketing leads say it's unlikely that physical games will ever "100% go away," because "they realize the importance of that"

    Jump

  • He's a former marketing lead of Nintendo, so completely dismissing him as a "podcaster" feels not entirely fair.

    He doesn't know everything, but he's got a pretty good idea being there for 13 years during the Wii, Wii U and Switch era

  • REPO has published yet another video promising more content in its long-awaited first update: 'We are in the homestretch now'

    Jump

  • Excited for the new content. The videos are fun to watch too, you can tell they're having fun

  • Don't like your highschool bully, just bump into their parents back in time. Or you know, "bump" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) into their parents

    Forcing your high school bully to call you daddy is one hell of a power move

  • Do you tag people in Lemmy?

    Jump

  • Do you tag people in Lemmy?

    Jump

  • I tag people that never fail to find something to argue about, obvious trolls, bad faith / sea lion conversationalists and so on. If I encounter them again and they show the same behaviour as a pattern, I fully block them.

    I also use it for more fun stuff, like who is overly helpful, friendly or who recommended a good book. This way, if I see them again I get reminded of the positive interaction from before

    edit: @[email protected] you might want to replace "tag" with "label" or something, people think you mean username @tagging and don't read the body of your post

  • Celsius and Metric users of Lemmy, is there any cute tips or sayings that help generalize a measurement?

    Jump

  • ~We don't really need any of those mnemonics because it's a perfect system~

    More seriously there is the "King Henry Died, Drinking Chocolate Milk" for the Kilo (1000) Hecto (100) Deca (10), Deci (0.1) Centi (0.01) Milli (0.001), but that doesn't really help with measuring on the spot, aside from being able to get the prefix right.

    There's an average step being 1 meter, but thats less useful for people with shorter legs unless they want to join the ministry of silly walks.

    One that I use often is converting meters per second to kilometers per hour. Because 1 meter per second is 3600 meters per hour or 3.6 kilometers per hour, you can actually skip the multiply by 3600 and then divide by 1000 and just multiply by 3.6.

    But aside from time conversions, there isn't really anything else that can help because it's just moving the decimal.

    Slightly related, you can tell how far away lightning is by listening for the thunder and counting the seconds. Sound travels at 346 m/s so every 3 seconds is roughly 1 kilometer away. But I suppose you can do the same for miles and count to 5.

  • I don't say no, I say yes and put my discomfort for anything aside, other people's wants are more important than my feeling

    I don't know why no one is mentioning this, but your feelings are valid and important. Assuming you extend this to people you've just met, eventually someone will either take advantage of this or think you like them because you don't say no, even when uncomfortable.

    Don't do that to yourself. Whatever you did (as a kid), you don't deserve that.

  • Nintendo Switch 2 Will Help You Find Your Joy-Con If It Falls Into The Couch

    Jump

  • The original Switch has this feature too, but it's just vibration instead of also beeping.

  • Partner has ADD, do I have misophonia?

    Jump

  • Partner is also suffering from depression so every freaking time I begged to please turn the tv off, it’s just ended in a 30 minute therapy session at home on how I can improve myself.

    Eh, what? What does being depressed have to do with you asking to turn off the TV? I feel like they are using this against you, but there's not a lot of info to go by.

    Perhaps a solution would be to get them headphones, too.
