    Same. I now have the habit of asking “what problem are you trying to solve?” Instead of working on their idea of the solution

  • Banned for 2 days from asklemmy@lemmy.ml for arguing with someone on Lenin "trolling"
  • NOT_RICK NOT_RICK Now 100%

    The vast amount that Lenin contributed to Marxist Theory and his vital role in creating the first Socialist State, which uplifted hundreds of millions of people and supported numerous anti-colonial and anti-imperialist movements the world over, is absolutely worthy of praise.

    I’m sure the Ukrainians, Chechens, Georgians, Kazakhs, Uzbeks, Armenians and more resoundingly agree with this take

  • Some Games Are Skipping Xbox And Microsoft Is Asking Devs Why
  • NOT_RICK NOT_RICK Now 100%

    Yeah the naming is pretty dumb, especially given the fact that the “Series X” replaced the “Xbox One X”.

    They’ve brought so much brand confusion just because they didn’t want to have a situation where “Xbox 2” had to go up against “PS3” back in 2005. I still don’t know why they didn’t just skip a number to have parity with Sony.

  • Any good reasons to continue fight for ukraine?

    Convenient that you ignore that Russia was also a signatory of the Budapest Memorandum but somehow it’s only the west’s fault when it’s Russia doing the fucking invading.

    I dunno, based on the snippet below I assumed that’s a shot of him calling for the cops to save him from the meany journalists trying to stifle his freeze peach

    Before we left him, he also accused the BBC of harassment and rang the police.

    In my search for the ultimate retro gaming machine I’ve been surprised by the limited options when it comes to controllers for iOS and android. While there are plenty of controllers that you can clip your phone onto in landscape orientation, I haven’t seen any that are designed to play in portrait mode. I see several benefits to a clip on controller for portrait mode. Pinball games, Tetris, and DS games all play best in portrait mode. Plus, a portrait mode controller would be close to the original gameboy in terms of form-factor. Anyone else looking for something like this? Have I missed a product that’s out there? Maybe once I get a 3D printer I can cannibalize a Bluetooth controller and experiment.
