Automatic high beams are a new hell. I thought people were just retarded until I hired a newer car recently. Then I realised what everyone else was doing... trusting faulty technology, and possibly being lazy in the process.

Mmm... ditch Garmin, strap a raspberry pi + car battery to your arm, & away you go.

This bugs the hell out of me too. I don't think I've even started it yet for this very reason.

Ha. No. Just standing.

Re: sitting down, I've experienced (more than once) an unpleasant dampness soaking into my shorts/trousers from the seat fabric. I stand unless I have no choice.

Switched to Linux in December in c/linux_gaming@lemmy.world
[–] OrkneyKomodo 6 points 5 months ago

Guess it depends on the games. I have no games in my collection that won't run on Linux, either natively or via Proton. The only games I'm aware of where there are massive issues are ones incorporating certain forms of anti-cheat software.

The visor in that suit's helmet probably just shows ads all the time.

I'm still trying to work out which end of the turtle Trump's head has poked out from.

Random Screenshots of my Games #45 - Subnautica in c/games@lemmy.world
[–] OrkneyKomodo 2 points 6 months ago

I would suggest trying a new game without the food & water need. It really lets you focus on the plot. I also needed to look through a few YouTube videos at various points, because some things aren't obvious or are easy to miss.

The bezels were already pretty large on the LCD deck.

Seen in Cork, Ireland.

Mobile Roaming in the US & Canada (self.ireland)
 

What do people here do when wanting to take their phone with them when travelling to the US or Canada. It looks like I might need to take out a mortgage if I took my eir SIM with me & turned on data roaming.

Does anyone have any recommendations for eSIMs or anything else?

Delivery Tracking App (self.fossdroid)
 

Can someone recommend a good FOSS delivery tracking app? Are there any?

Recommendations for a FOSS Cross-Platform Note-Taking Application (self.linux)
 

Up to now I've been using Simplenote, which has a Linux client (but also Android & iOS) & supports live collaboration on notes. However, Simplenote hasn't had a meaningful update for a long time, & it's recently been behaving strangely, e.g. notes undeleting themselves, line duplications & undeletions.

Can anyone recommend an alternative? Spinning up an ownCloud/nextcloud instance just to use Joplin feels a little overkill. I stumbled across turtl, but the project looks abandoned.

Left-Leaning Online Local News Source for Cork (self.ireland_on_lemmy)
 

I'm shortly going to be migrating to Cork. I'd be grateful if someone could point me in the direction of some 'left' or 'centre-left' online news sources for Cork. Preferably with RSS feeds.

Bird ID (play.google.com)

A lot of people probably already know this exists, but for those who don't, there's an awesome app that tells you what birds are around from their calls/songs. It's called "Merlin". You can also give it photos to ID. I usually leave it running in my pocket or hand while I walk around my local RSPB reserve.

Defeating Alecto, Black Knife Ringleader (self.eldenring)
 

Does anyone have any tips for defeating Alecto in the Ringleader Evergaol?

I'm not sure what this screen is for, but it doesn't currently work.

It might help a bit. I remember Infinity used to do this.
