gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Games@sh.itjust.works•This Need for Speed Rivals Mod removes its 30fps lockEnglish2·2 years agoI don’t disagree but I can prefer 30 fps right? I never said 30 fps is objectively better, it’s just a preference. I’m not trying to be a contrarian, I’m just surprised it’s so controversial to have this opinion.
gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Gaming@beehaw.org•What game company from your childhood do you remember with fondness?2·2 years agoI was going to say Digital Illusions but for Motorhead, the racing game. The OST for that game has been in my music rotation for decades and it’s still in my top 3 of all time.
gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Games@sh.itjust.works•This Need for Speed Rivals Mod removes its 30fps lockEnglish310·2 years agoLooks more “cinematic” to me, if that makes sense.

gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are some of your, "If I like this, what else might I like" questions?2·2 years agoYou have a lot of recommendations already but I’d like to add two of my favorites: Courtney Barnett and Alvvays!
gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Younger users of Lemmy: Did you ever love a game that you just really sucked at?1·2 years agoI don’t qualify as a “younger user of Lemmy” but I love games like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. I suck at all of them, except for Killer Instinct but I’m only kinda good with Combo.
Well it looks like they found some references to subscriptions in an INI file, but that doesn’t mean it will require a subscription. It would be insane to try to sell new PCs with a trial Windows 12 license that’ll eventually require a subscription. I can’t imagine Windows could ever switch to a subscription model without a “base” version that’s a one-time purchase, even if it’s just for new PCs.
The local and remote port options sound exactly like something I’ve needed multiple times in the past, I’ll keep this saved for when it happens again. Great stuff!
Is VR really so ubiquitous to warrant these concerns? In my opinion most of the warnings about how this technology encourages “escaping reality” apply more to things that have had an established place in society for decades, namely phones, social media and online gaming. I have two kids and a VR headset is the least of my concerns, but they could be sucked in to the non-reality of a personal phone in two seconds if I allow it.
This one is probably very specific but Utada Hikaru has one that I love, where towards the end of certain songs she sings the chrous, and then keeps the same melody going multiple times but with different lyrics. It’s like she extends the feeling and rhythm of the chorus but keeps it interesting by using different lyrics the whole time. Some examples: Goodbye Happiness, Making Love, About Me, LETTERS, Sakura DROPS.
gnzl@nc.gnzl.cltoLemmy Support@lemmy.ml•FYI I made a patch for lemmy that turns off pictrs caching2·2 years agoI set this up on my instance about a week ago and it works perfectly, thank you!
gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What would your contribution be for a book put together to restart a a civilization?3·2 years agoMy contribution is a very practical tip for parents: When you need to carry a kid sitting on your shoulders, first pick them up and have them sit with both legs on your right shoulder. Then, with your right hand, grab the kid’s right leg, and with your left hand grab the kid’s left leg and lift it over your head to place it in your left shoulder. Mirror the maneuver if necessary. The result is a quick lift-sit-and-switch technique, and fewers kicks to the head.
gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your favorite insult in your native language that doesn't exist or cant be directly translated in English?3·2 years agoI love this one, reminded me of a similar insult in Chilean Spanish: “Le faltan palos pal puente” (he’s a few sticks short for a bridge)
gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your favorite insult in your native language that doesn't exist or cant be directly translated in English?49·2 years agoIn Chile, not really an insult but rather a lament over how dumb people are sometimes:
“Si los weones volaran, pasaría nublado” (If dumb people could fly it would always be cloudy)
gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your favorite insult in your native language that doesn't exist or cant be directly translated in English?5·2 years agoChile here, love Argentinian insult acronyms like LPQTRMP
gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you call Marshmallow in your native language?8·2 years agoMalvavisco in Spanish as others mentioned, but in Chile we also call some varieties “guagüitas” (little babies) for some reason
gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Can you post your political views in the form of a rhyming poem?62·2 years agoEver since I have been married with kids
My days are too short for me to give a shit
We’re like monkeys in a zoo to them
People love seeing monkeys in the zoo, the closer the better! I think if we could travel to other planets to check out other life forms we would do it all the time. I don’t believe aliens have come here, but if they exist and could come see us they would totally do it for the same reasons we would want to go see them. Makes sense to me!
gnzl@nc.gnzl.clto Photon (moved to lemdro.id)@lemmy.xylight.dev•Do you want an official photon lemmy instance?English10·2 years agoDoesn’t seem necessary to me. I say treat yourself with that money, don’t spend it on us!
I think you still have to specify the URL up to the greader.php page, maybe in your case it would be
