The fact you caught this pic with a camera from 40 years ago (without burst frames) is pretty dang cool.

Unfortunately there are some communities (especially gaming ones) that just don't have a Lemmy equivently or don't have enough critical mass to be useful. I would say Lemmy is a great addition, but not a drop in replacement.

What's the other choice these days?

Edit: Did some research, sounds like a few apps got API exceptions because they are consider accessibility apps. Am currently test driving RedReader. It's not bad and so far ad free.

For this same reason, he's one of my favorites.

Here's the thing, you own the domain, set up what ever email alias you want and send it to your primary.

Honestly, I've had nothing but good luck with Asrock. The few times I've needed at MB replacement (one was for a 2 year old board that had a known issue, Intels fault, not theirs) they just sent me a replacement board after I sent mine in.

Its probably been 5 years since I've had to use thier RMA process, but I'm still putting Asrock boards in everything I build. I build for pretty much all my friend and family circle (probably 3-8 builds a year) and I don't know of any that have had an issue so far (they would for sure come back to me for help if they did).

Taichi is such a great enthuaist line and Steel Legend is a great mid range. I'll always recommend them.

Back in the day, devs used to not release games until they were done. Patches were bascially unheard of.

This was more of a comment on the poster above feeling like he's gonna be irrelevant when he's older. That's not true, at least in my experience, if you are passionate about IT, your knowledge will age like fine wine.

I didn't mean to imply that you should have all the experience right out of the gate, just that you may start out thinking you know all that and will be irrelevant by 30, but that's not the case. Wait until you find out all the stuff you don't know! (this is a good thing, not bad)

That's funny because I'm an old person in IT and we struggle to find new hires that know how to troubleshoot beyond basic issues. Most of them might have been the techy for thier family but few have experience with actual enterprise solutions, that's only something that comes with experience.
