  • For anyone who wants a non-shit version

  • Came to post almost exactly this

  • In Australia we call it a long black. I think it's a great name and wish it would catch on across the pond.

  • Don't watch it because it won an Oscar, watch it because it is a beautiful, sweet movie about animals helping each other.

  • Relatable

  • This is the kind of gaslighting I come to Lemmy for!

  • Not sure how it works in the US but here in Oz (where water scarcity is always present in our collective psyche) golf courses are usually placed on flood plains where it would be dangerous/too expensive to build housing. In addition most allow people to walk through them and many even allow dog walkers so they have quite a lot of public amenity.

    I would still prefer if they were just designated as public parks rather than having huge swathes of grass that needed frequent watering, but they're not nearly as bad as most make them out to be.

  • The last 2 minutes of this talk are pure gold. Thanks for sharing!

  • Fair enough. I've tried using twitch on my Fedora laptop with FF and I get blocked out by their browser message so I assumed that they were restricting access to chromium only.

  • Isn't that just because Twitch doesn't allow you to browse it using Firefox though?

  • There has yet to be a game in the intervening 25 years that has scratched the same itch as freelancer for me. Perfect blend of story and sandbox.

  • They weren't even in the same league though graphically (on PC). Crysis really was that one game which blew everything else out of the water. In many ways it set the precedent for companies to implement ultra quality settings which only worked with the very best GPUs of each generation.

  • We've been using tsp at my work for years and it works well. It is just a very basic queueing system so if you can run the job from the command line then you can run it via tsp.

    Our workflow is to have concurrent jobs run on the remote servers with cron and tsp but you should be able to trigger remote jobs over SSH also if you prefer to have a single machine in charge of task allocation.

  • Will always upvote Dr. Collier. Her 4 hr nu-trek video was one of the best video essays this year too.

  • Same here! I thought it must've been for the Brisbane Olympics, not the ones bloody 4 years ago.

  • I prefer bands like Skepticism, Impaled Nazarene, and Desecresy personally but each to their own 😉

  • Wait til you hear their music

  • As usual it is a matter of education and normalisation. I'm a rock climber and am surrounded by shredded people a lot of the time. I'm sitting at around 18-20% body fat which is high for the sport but I am considerably leaner than the guy in your photo.

    I can absolutely tell that he is overweight (even with clothes) but that's because I have invested a lot of time into learning about health and fitness and spend most of my time with people who have a 'healthy' BMI. If all you see are overweight and obese people every day then of course you will look at this guy and think he looks perfectly healthy (which he might well be but that's another discussion).
