To be fair, Lohan is in The Parent Trap too. Unless of course you’re talking about the original from the 70s.

Who?

Like the others have said, use Voyager to filter out the instances and communities you don’t want to see.

It really is. Great for gaming cause you can just crank the FoV to around 115-120° and have a fully-immersive experience. And say goodbye to having to lean forward to see the action.

I case you didn’t see my other comment, Here are some different angles if you’re interested.

I figured, lol. But even native speakers can be ambiguous in their phrasing. You made an extremely common mistake, so don’t feel bad.

Yeah seriously; I use my social media strictly as a mobile experience. (The desktop is for work, big purchases, and games.) This post was annoying as hell.

Just curious: why don’t you want night vision? The only time it isn’t useful is if the camera will be looking through a window, cause there’s too much glare when the ir lights are on.

Imgur if you want memes, cats, and politics, but keep in mind that they’re not much better than reddit. No 3rd party apps, and the official app has ads & sells your data to Facebook. You can block it by using the DDG app and enabling App Tracking Protection, however. Also setting your phone’s DNS server to dns.adguard-dns.com. You should be doing those two things anyway, regardless of what apps you do or don’t use.

Besides this place, I also use Imgur and YouTube to help fill in the void after leaving reddit. I’m considering joining Bluesky and Mastodon as well but I’ve never used a Twitter-like interface before so it’s intimidating.

Unfortunately I still haven’t found a suitable replacement for niche communities. There’s always forums, but I got too used to points-based communities, and because comments are sorted chronologically, it’s hard to know what’s crap and what’s actual useful information. Which can suck if you need a good opinion on something. 20-30 years ago that wouldn’t have even bothered me, cause forums were the only social media I knew then. But times have changed.

Yeah seriously; if you want more space, buy a bigger display and increase the FoV. Human eyes have a conical field of view anyway so a more square-like display will fill more of your vision field.

Unfortunately none of them have any fast respawn servers. By the time the cooldown period ends, the war is already over.

I have an OLED, so all I have to do is turn off the lights, set the resolution to something like 3840x1600, and now the TV is an ultrawide. I do this all the time, especially in games that don’t have an FoV setting. In the dark you can’t even see the black bars.

LMAO you’re not far off. For authenticity, I promise that I only partially staged this pic.

It’s hard to get a good shot of the entire setup due to poor lighting, but here you go. Had to do a panorama to make it all fit. The TV doesn’t look washed-out in person BTW; it’s an OLED.

Cat tax.

Edit: Sorry for the imgur link, but every time I try to upload an image to Lemmy, it breaks.

Edit 2: Some different angles for the interested. Did minimal cleanup for authenticity.

Hilarious, but if they actually assumed that then they would allow you to put different toppings on each half of the sub.

My back is the very reason why I ditched desks and office chairs and replaced them with a comfortable recliner and a giant gaming TV. I have yet to find an office chair that didn’t fuck up my back.

A recliner with a pillow behind it eliminates the pain. Not only is it more comfortable, you’re also not leaning forward and to see the action on a tiny monitor anymore. You can just lean back and get your game on. Not having to be hunched over anymore works wonders for your back in of itself.

Gaming on a TV is amazing if you buy one designed for gaming. Get a good recliner. Keyboard in lap, mouse on armrest (or end table). You’ll never want to go back to a desk ever again. Trust me, I’ve been computing this way for over a decade now. Fuck desks and shitty overpriced office chairs that give you back pain.

Sugar, cinnamon, and butter on spaghetti is amazing (sans meat, herbs, and spaghetti sauce, in case it needed to be said). It doesn’t taste like spaghetti; it tastes like dessert.

All clocks in my home must be perfectly synced with atomic time. I will sit there and wait until the very last moment before hitting the button to confirm the time on the microwave/stove/wall clock/etc., so that it doesn’t change over to the next minute until it’s supposed to.

The irony is that the rest of my life is in complete chaos due to having untreated ADHD. Keeping accurate time is the one thing I care about having in order. Thankfully DST doesn’t exist where I live so I rarely have to re-sync everything more than once every couple of years or so.
