Jesus Christ was probably born… Never. No contemporary historical records support his existence.

Read the room

Volleyball athletes were multiple times offered less revealing clothing and denied them because it actually harmed their performance, compared to the current standard.

New efforts for streaming guidelines do limit certain close ups or angles, given the outfits, though.

Why the hell would I get my geographical information from Apple?

Games like these are better without fast travel anyway

What’s “bloated” about Firefox?

Black Ops 1 is the absolute best point in the series.

Several Windows 11 updates are great, actually. They corrupted the OS and made it unable to boot, which given it’s Windows, not booting makes the experience better.

People are making an extra effort to make others aware that CoMaps exist and you don’t need Organic Maps.

You can develop black and white film at home using coffee. Developing nudes this way sounds kinda hot.

I went from cutting edge tech excited nerd to literally this picture, and life is better.

That’s a widespread myth and absolutely false.

I read comments like yours and always thought it was hyperbole, then I became a bioinformatics teacher.

Not hyperbole. iOS and Android destroyed future generation’s ability to understand traditional computing.

They can’t unzip a file, they can’t navigate a directory hierarchy deeper than one level, they can’t reply to an email without replying to all recipients.

A class about BLAST had to become a class about how to install a program on Windows.

I settled down on the specific sweet spot I like, and accept no further.

Small, digital, single purpose devices. I don’t go back to analog, but do not embrace smart devices, always on, surveillance, subscriptions, premium tiers, one year cycles.

Digital FLAC player, wired headphones, digital watch, digital camera, portable emulator. All digital, all techie, all could have been in my backpack in 2007. Peaceful, functional, sometimes I buy lithium cells and replace the batteries.

Its a CDPR game so better to get it three years later once the bugs are fixed, at least 50% of the promised features are implemented and the price drops by a half with the DLC included.

That’s a common trick used to identify Tor users too.

Force their device to decode and encode complex images and audio tracks, take note of the chip-specific tiny variances in the data.

Do the same test in the surface web across popular websites.

Now the user’s Tor activity is tied to their surface web identity.

I’d rather be a mountain hermit eating raw roots than use computing through a Microsoft web based operating system

Porn stars rarely even have the opportunity for pleasure during filming.

Men are taking penile injections to increase performance, having to stop and cut the video several times. Women are using numbing gels to handle filming the scenes without much pain. Everything is awkward to angle it proper for the camera.

I come back to Lemmy after 6 months and immediately read this.

So that was a mistake.
