This isn't new, it's a couple of years old and has been posted here several times.

"Modem Holocaust" sounds like some synthwave death metal band. I'm imagining Terminator imagery with some added 80s tech details for music videos, and the sound is kinda obvious.

But that is a thing though, while them being male isn't. They're pointing out a factual error, not saying "This detail made me go yuck most".

How have you managed to not understand this?

"Looks just like RIF"

I seriously don't understand how that's a positive. RIF always looked and felt like it was badly designed on purpose. Like some shitty thing from the early 2000s. But seeing the shit people do with theming on their phones and other stuff it's weirdly not surprising, still doesn't make sense. It's actually vile looking.

 

Hey, after trying every lemmy android app I could find, I like thunder the most other than Sync. But there are three main things that stop me from fully switching from Sync.

  1. Option to hide bottom navigation bar on scroll, same as we already can with the top one.
  2. Option to change the three dots on every post to a share button, hold for options or have both. I only ever vote, share (to save to read later) or check comments. That one extra step to save to my read later app gets weirdly annoying very quickly.
  3. Compact card mode, looks the same as cards but have the smaller thumbnails to the side like compact does (which side as an option, right would be my choice).

Sorry if anything is badly explained, got no sleep last night so my brain is running on fumes, just ask if needed and I'll try to explain better.

It's not smooth at all, IMO. Lots of visual annoyances which makes it feel stuttery and just bad. Been a Sync user for years and going from that to any other app is just a bad experience... I try all lemmy apps I come across and they either just look bad, no matter how much I change settings or they lack several major things that I just won't be without. None has come close to feeling like a replacement yet, and it really sucks that it seems Sync is actually dead now.

 

The company is Access Industries and the Founder and Owner is Leonard Blavatnik

Along with what's in the title, he is accused of reputation laundering against Ukraine and has been personally sanctioned by Volodymyr Zelenskyy. He was also part of a WhatsApp group involving some of the United States' most powerful business leaders with the stated goals of "changing the narrative" in favour of Israel and "helping win the war" against Gaza.

Everything is in the linked Wikipedia article about him, mostly under the "Controversies and disputes" part.

I switched to Deezer after seeing it recommended as a better Spotify alternative here on Lemmy, but after finding all this I immediately stopped using it. It's as bad as the shit Spotify does and has done IMO. I'm not here to recommend or push an alternative, but if I can give info on what I use now if someone asks.

Hey, I am forced to use Ubuntu 20.04 because it's the only distro and version currently supported by Shadow, which I use for several hours every day. (Yeah, it sucks that they haven't kept up with updates or support other distros...) And I'm trying to install Floorp browser but I get errors both via apt get install and via flatpak. Here are the two errors:

apt get install floorp
floorp : Depends: libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0 (>= 2.22.0) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

flatpak install flathub one.ablaze.floorp
Looking for matches…
error: Unable to load summary from remote flathub: URI https://dl.flathub.org/repo/summary exceeded maximum size of 10485760 bytes

I'm pretty new to Linux so I have no idea what to do here. I found nothing helpful when searching these errors.

 

Hello! A few years ago I saw this really good movie that I can't stop thinking about but I forgot the name and just can't find it no matter how much I try.
I'm pretty sure it's from Eastern Europe, non-English language, made kinda recently (within the last 10 years I think).
The movie starts with a mother and her toddler hundreds of years ago who live in a small hut in the forest who gets visited by a witch (I think it's some specific folklore being. She kinda looks like a burn victim, whole body is scar tissue when we see her at the beginning of the movie) then the movie jumps a few years and we see the now kid (the toddler from before) go into a cave and is stuck in there for some time.
I can't remember exactly what happened during and right after that.
But the movie then begins its actually story of this witch who kills people and then transforms into them, basically copies their physical bodies, and then goes on to live as them for several years. She lives for a long time and during the movie we see the different people, both male and female, who she lives as.
Every time she becomes someone new she has to relearn basic things so she can't talk or do simple tasks, almost like a toddler in an adult body for a while.
Her thoughts are narrated most of the time, often as whispering, and we see and listen as she explores things like sex, relationships, being these different people and as she learns to live their lives. It's very close and personal to her, we basically experience it through her mind but see her as these people in second and third person (not actually game-like third person perspective, just that we see her characters from a perspective outside those people). I think we do see through her eyes sometimes, but I'm not sure about that.

Does anyone know what movie it might be? Or have any tips on websites or ways to search to help me find it? Thanks!!

Edit: this is crazy, I found it right after making this post... So many hours trying to find it before with nothing even being close. It's "You Won't Be Alone": https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8296030/

 

Hey! So I've hit a real wall for the first time since I started playing two years ago. No matter what I try I'm unable to beat any of the Wolf Hunt event missions. I've searched for info, looked at videos, asked in the warframe discord etc. and the answers are either you need these things that are hard to get or "git gud"...

I just started steel path yesterday and can handle those missions fine so far, done about 10, and have had no major issues with anything else (that I've tried). But I just die constantly when I try the first Wolf Hunt mission.

I've been recommended to use Laetum, which I do, but I get swamped by the hundreds of minions that spawn. I get past the first three small waves before you get to the arena, and get his health down fairly quickly, but once in the arena when the smaller enemies spawn endlessly I just can't kill them fast enough to give me time to hurt Wolf himself without dying every 15 seconds. Someone said to use Revenant Prime, but I don't have him. Any other frame that works?

I've soloed 99% of the game, mostly without guides or help other than the warframe wiki, so I'm aware that I'm lacking knowledge. I really don't know what I'm doing wrong or missing here. Any help at all is very much welcome, I'd love to beat this before the event ends in 7 hours.

What game is this? (lemmy.world)

Hey, I'm wondering that game this is? It's part of this video, the link should start at the time the game is shown:

https://youtu.be/o6t3zdIQgYg?t=158

If it doesn't, the game is shown from 2:38 to 2:44

I tried asking in the comments for the video but my comment gets deleted now matter what it type... really weird.

Hey! It's time for me to go back to Linux, I used it a lot about 15 years ago, Ubuntu at the tjme, but I haven't really kept up with everything. I have pretty specific needs so I hope someone knows the best option for me.

I have an old and shitty laptop so I only do a few things with it. Here's what I use it for, needs and preferences:

• I use Shadow for most things like gaming, creative stuff and anything else my potato can't handle, so the Shadow app needs to work well.
• I exclusively download entertainment via MEGA so the MEGA app needs to work.
• I use Spotify for music.

As for wishes about UX and UI. I like a MacOS style more than Windows, but I'm happy to try and play around with anything. I'm not huge on keyboard navigation, my back is kinda bad so using only the mouse or even a gamepad is what works best. I use a couple of different gamepads, but since it's mostly for Shadow and I forward the USB directly to it, I hope it should work no matter what distro.

I tried Pop!_OS but both the Shadow and MEGA apps were almost completely broken, both the ones from the Pop!_Shop and apps from their websites. I also didn't like the UX that much.

I have downloaded Linux Mint, but thought I should ask here before going ahead with installing it, it looks nice thought!

I want something that's as "ready to go" as possible, not too much fixing with drivers etc. I should be able to handle most things that come up, but I have limited mental energy to sit and fix stuff for hours and days.

I'm a sucker for good design and eye candy like blurred transparency etc. But it's definitely not a must, especially considering the limited hardware.

So, any recommendations and/or thoughts?

Thanks!

That's $3 for 15 eggs. Sadly not free-range, only cage-free.

Not sure if this is the best community for this post, does anyone have a better suggestion?

 

Hey! I'm trying to log in to pixeldroid via pixelfed.social but I keep getting "Web server is returning an unknown error" immediately after entering the instance domain. Tried searching around but found no other reports of this. And the website itself works fine in my browser.
