  • The lack of pain-empathy in healthcare is mind-blowing. I'm a white man in an excellent position to be listened to, but when I had appendicitis last year getting people to understand that no, I am in crippling pain and I think it's urgent was far to much hassle for someone in crippling pain. I can't imagine what it's like for women.

    I can understand folk getting jaded eventually but I often get the feeling that many people start out not caring.

  • 'vampire smut' is almost, but not quite redundant.

  • You probably don't want to know the details of any science done before... What? the 90's?

  • For honour, for the hive, for things ordinary humans can not understand.

    The real sad thing is after stabbing their opponent the winning beekeeper dies anyway.

  • It's worse than that. Some folks actually reject the idea that those poorer than them should have nice things, or even OK things. This is why there are voucher programs, why so much social housing (when it was built) are ugly, plain boxes showcasing the worst of brutalism.

  • Father called me a “leftist”. How is this an insult??

    Jump

  • Calling someone a liberal when they are leftist is pretty insulting, even fighting words in some company. Though probably not in the way he intended. Many leftists consider liberals to be at best, placing their personal comfort over the need to take action, and at worst as complicit in and defensive of the structures as any fascist. An 'I cant believe it's not facisim' kind of margarine.

    Being called a leftist is only an insult if you base your politics on cruelty and hatred. And for such people the idea that you might think about someone else just doesn't compute.

    I'm sorry you are having to go through this, it is hard when we realise that our parents are not good people. Especially if they generally treat you well. And often these are the same people who first taught us the basic principles that matured into leftism. To share. To act kindly and be considerate. To tell the truth. To do what is right, not what everyone else is doing.

    I'd like to say here is a step by step guide to help your father, but if there is one I don't know anyone who has seen it.

  • Modern Font Requirements

    Jump

  • See the problem with this is that even if I write code with this font, I can't force people to read it in this font.

  • Old laptop clock resets

    Jump

  • There is generally a battery that powers the clock and keeps it running even when there is no external power to the system normally one of the larger coin shaped ones. It's non-rechargable as it lasts for a long time. It's being constantly drained but it's only the smallest trickle.

    If you can get to the internals you should be able to find and replace it, it's pretty obvious when you know to look for it. While you are in there you can check for corrosion/damage to the traces and components, give things a dust. The biggest issue is probably going to be an old battery, 20 years ago they were rather primative and though generally more replaceable than modern builds, getting a replacement might be harder.

  • also the climate, war, natural disaster and dictatorships but still

  • The thing about billionaires it that they could just stop. It's not a skin colour, it's not an ethnicity or even a religion.

    If they wanted to they could redistribute the wealth. They could use their power to close the political doors they exploit.

    Wouldn't even have to check themselves out, wouldn't even have to adopt some monastic lifestyle. But they would rather live in a world where they have lifetimes of obscene luxury at the expense of others. At a certain point you have to ask if causing suffering is part of their fun.

  • As a library, we're not here to judge, we're here to help

    Jump

  • And there generally is, most libraries have a catalogue or at least a directory explaining the numbering system at a topic level. Thing is, this sign doesn't just help people come to the library wanting help with these things. It helps people in the library who are experiencing this and didn't know they could find a book to help them.

    Hell some people don't even know they need help with these things until someone offers.

  • Is Linux support still needed nowadays, or is Steam OS good enough?

    Jump

  • Should Vale release a general Steam OS and folk move away from Windows en masse it's probably going to be worth it. Proton does a great job but a tested and supported Linux build will be better. Some solos do it, but I think it is more based in ideology rather than necessity.

    Your time and effort as a solo is going to be limited though, testing and supporting a Linux build is going to be work, and if you want to keep things closed source you are not going to be able to leverage the community in the way open software does.

    There might be steps you can take to be more compatible with Proton and/or Steam Deck, which probably would be a good idea, and give you much more effect for your time spend.

  • HP hasn't made an OMEN gaming handheld because of Windows, but they are open to making a SteamOS-powered handheld

    Jump

  • I only really associate HP with corporate machines, which they seem to work fine for. Don't really associate them with the gaming space. Of course them looking at it is probably a sign that the handheld market is about to really open up, which is a good thing I think.

    And if they make a good product with neither their corporate bullshit or all the 'gamer style' gimmicks I anticipate from folk like Razer or Alienware.

    What I'd really like though is something DIY, or at least Framework-like. A man can dream...
