I’m not sure I enjoy it, it’s more the impending doom lessens a bit.

BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.ukto Games@lemmy.world•Nintendo Wins $2 Million Lawsuit Against 'MiG Switch' DistributorEnglish71·1 day agoI’m not pro Nintendo by any stretch, however in this particular case the guy seems to have been intent on speedrunning stupid any %. Ignored a cease and desist and then decided he’d defend himself in court. I sympathise to a point, but if a notoriously litigious games company asks you to stop, probably stop.
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.ukto linuxmemes@lemmy.world•You gotta teach them early onEnglish0·5 days agoThey fall out over a minor implementation detail and get forked.
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.ukto Games@lemmy.world•New Valve trademark for 'Steam Frame', looks like we're getting new hardwareEnglish8·6 days agoMy first thought on hearing frame is server. I’m likely way off the mark (to the point I don’t actually think it’s what they’re doing) but it could be the basis for a cloud gaming setup for steam. Would extend the deck life and allow them to optimise settings for proton locally.
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.ukto memes@lemmy.world•They're literally conspiring against youEnglish0·9 days agoThat seems like an oversimplification, outside looking in for me, but there’s no way a single dimension could ever adequately describe an item of clothing - my sister and wife have similar sized waists, but something tight round the posterior on my wife would be baggy on my sister.
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.ukto memes@lemmy.world•They're literally conspiring against youEnglish0·9 days agoHa, my point was more that the bandsaw wasn’t tracking straight so all the blanks on the bottom are bigger, the seamstress runs a hem 10mm (more or less) from the edge so the dimension remains out and the QA guy couldn’t give a fuck because it’s 8:30 on a Friday night and he’s been working 21 days straight.
Even the same garment is going to have a different size in different countries, large in Italy, medium in UK etc etc. the real size is somewhere in between, but no one makes that level of granularity.
You should watch some of these garments being made, it’s mind blowing.
Cutting blanks and this is a tame/slow process Vs some other factories I’ve seen on the tube.
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.ukto memes@lemmy.world•They're literally conspiring against youEnglish0·9 days agoWhat makes you think it’s so mechanised? Material is often cut on bandsaw in stacks inches thick, they’re sewn on machine, sure, but manually controlled by a human. Different designers, different factories, different QA levels.
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.ukto memes@lemmy.world•They're literally conspiring against youEnglish0·9 days agoI read a thing (not sure if it’s true) that the reason there’s no pockets in women’s clothing is that women have more diverse body shapes than men. Pockets are designed not to interrupt the lines of the garment where possible - it’s more straightforward to place men’s pockets because they’re going to be in a more predictable place when worn Vs women where it ends up making the clothes fit poorly.
The main reason I like a window seat is because it means I don’t have anyone freaking out beside me that I haven’t stood up as soon as the plane stops rolling. I’m just gonna sit here and read thanks.
Generally microwaves are amongst the devices I tag as “do not self repair” I lack the confidence in my repair skills to fuck with the machine with giant caps and built in death ray.
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.ukto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•During their visit to the United States, President Trump showed President Zelensky and President Macron his collection of MAGA hatsEnglish0·22 days agoI don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong with collecting stuff, or even showing it off if there was some effort or challenge in amassing the things (beyond - I threw money at this problem) however these are a collection of hats anyone could get made on AliExpress for $100.
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.ukto Greentext@sh.itjust.works•Anon thinks there is a bicurious double standardEnglish0·23 days agoI have no issues acknowledging a conventionally attractive guy, I do however seem to have absolutely no notion of what this actually looks like. I know by dint of existing in the 21st century that Brad Pitt, George Clooney etc are considered attractive, but for the life of me I couldn’t take that knowledge and apply it to someone else. I can spot an egregiously “unattractive” dude, but there’s a very broad spectrum of men that just look like “blokes” to me.
What’s the iPlayer done?
Yes, but in the wrong place
This cracks me up every time.
£10 says you have a set of flush cutters with blue rubberised handles.
I have a drawer specifically for things that tighten or loosen fasteners.
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.ukto Linux@lemmy.ml•E-ink tablet for note and readingEnglish2·2 months agoI’ve been using a supernote for a few years now, great device.
BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.ukto linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Mozilla did something good!English0·2 months agoMoistCr1TiKaL I believe, aka penguinz0, aka Charlie. Don’t know much about him but he seems like a nice enough bloke.
They rock at being the default. As much as I love LibreOffice MS office is probably the best office suite I’ve used too.
