  • Flex launcher looks cool, thanks. Might be more convenient and slicker than trying to put everything in steam and autostart steam...

  • Why do people hate on cosmetic surgeries so much?

    Jump

  • How does that rhyme with increasingly many men also being obsessed by their looks and more and more having surgery done? Hair implants are on the edge of surgery and very common for men. So are nosejobs, eyelids correction, eyebrows raising etc.

    While some hatrid is probably misogyny, I have the feeling the divide between people liking "corrective" surgery and those who don't is more like the age old difference between "high culture" and "folk culture".

    My personal opinion: it's usually ugly. Almost always do I find it ugly. Chances are I find a naturally aged person 40-65yo more beautiful than ones where it's super obvious they had stuff done. Especially the trend of getting stuff done super obviously really makes my stomach twist. The natural looking older people to me often just emit a "i'm only human", "i'm nice" vibe while the overedited body (including having supermany tattoos by the way) usually just screams insecurity, uncertainty, ... at me.

    And excluding things like corrective surgery after accident or making boobs smaller because of backaches: I find plastic surgery just for the thrill of it an enormous waste of healthcare resources, while many people can't afford the most basic of health care.

  • 179 €. With windows pre-installed that I'll remove right away because it seemed cheaper than buying RAM and SSD separate currently.

    Still have an old pi laying around, did OSMC+kodi on that for a few years, but now it's just not powerful enough anymore for handling more recent compressed video

  • Yeah seems super gaming oriented that's why I doubted, but apparently there's a Bazzite HTPC version, will probably start with trying that and see how well it fits the situation

  • You mean as server? I'm looking for os on TV box, server is already running dietpi with jellyfin and works rather well

  • Libreelec seems super Kodi focused and nothing else. While I'm very unsure if I would get the local TV streaming websites working in that

  • I think I'd rather avoid android. It will just bite me in the ass at some point because Google?

    Heard about Bazzite but didn't know there's a Bazzite htpc version, that might be cool, thanks.

    Libreelec seems too Kodi focused and I'm running jellyfin server. Nobara I never heard of before

  • The lowest earners making the company work aren't mentioned here. It's probably an external company cleaning the toilets, for hourly rates you probably don't want to know.

  • NSFW

    Is it common for family members to spy on each other's sexual behavior to find evidence of "degeneracy"? Or did I grow up in hell?

    Jump

  • It might be healthier for you to break contact with your family or at least make contact the bare minimum (Christmas, birthdays). That's some fucked up parenting. You leave your teenager alone in their room when the door is locked. You can try to talk about stuff with teenagers, voice opinions about sexuality and all that, but sneakily opening that locked door is some seriously wrong shit.

  • We shouldn't have to go to college in order to afford a house by 30.

  • People I know with most real estate are 2 kinds.

    1. inherited everything.
    2. stayed in hotel Mama for free for years while not studying, but working as plumber/contractors/mechanic etc starting age 18-19. By the time they moved out age 26-30 they were already loaded, renting out multiple apartments.

    Both required parents, either they had to be wealthy and die early or decided to gift capital early; or to be super supportive, fun (tolerable) enough to keep living with after 18 and not asking you to pay rent.

  • This is incredibly stupid. It will drive up the cost of housing

    Jump

  • So your reply to this article was very out of place. Things are not white or black, but your opinion was not at all about the article the OP posted and has little place here. Living on Jersey without your own garage is perfectly possible, the only issue they have is man-made (too much car infrastructure, too little alternatives) and obligating people to build expensive garages only makes it worse. Building decent cycle infrastructure and providing better public transportation are very viable options on Jersey. Your living place and your grievances about your living place don't influence that.

  • The linked article is about Jersey.

    104.000 inhabitants on a rock in the ocean the size of 10km x 10 km, population density 859/km2.

    That population density is not very different from many lower density neighbourhoods in big cities. On top, distances on this rock are never of that kind that a car would be absolutely necessary. They are, geographically and demographically, in an excellent position to organise very good public transportation with little more than a few well served, comfortable buslines. Vast majority of the population is clearly concentrated on one side of the island: the south, where population density is clearly higher (St Helier, 3,380/km2, really not different from average city density neighbourhoods in big cities.)

    I don't know where you live, but I don't think "rural" and "long distances" are the right arguments for rooting in favor of more space for cars (and thus... more cars) on Jersey. The longest drive I could draw on a map is from "La Rocque" to "Grosnez castle". And that's really stretching it, with a staggering 22km in 30 minutes. Makes you wonder why they'ld have cars at all on this island... Maybe for construction, transporting the sick to the hospital etc etc. But your old regular commute from home to market or home to work... It could be a bicycle paradise an island like this... You can cycle the entire longest stretch in less than 1,5 hours, by foot it would be a staggering 5 hours. They are ruining their paradise island by roads and cars everywhere and encouraging it even further (obligating it, even) is just a god damn shame. One could perfectly live there without owning their own car in their own garage.

  • Leaving food on the counter - the absolute survey

  • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micromort?wprov=sfla1

    I'm unable to find micromort numbers for food-poisoning or food preservation techniques, but my wild guess is that leaving an average vegetarian leftover overnight at an average kitchen temperature on the averagely cleaned kitchen counter, unrefrigerated and even not covered at all, then eating it the next day (maybe reheated) is gonna be negligible amounts of risk compared to many many many other risks people take everyday without blinking their eye about it (such as walking, driving, climbing stairs, swimming, drinking alcohol, using cleaning products, inhaling/eating environmental pollution, not washing hands after toilet, ...)

  • Pi works fine for trying and if you only want to stream 1 thing at a time in 720p. Just try it.

    If it somewhat works but you find it slow, buy an old SFF office computer < 50 € and experiment further... Either pay close attention which integrated GPU it has or buy a cheap PCI videocard with it.
