Are there resources for learning social skills?

    dang

    that's honestly totally fair, it's hard to do hobbies and stuff when you're restricted by your work schedule :/

    I'd love to join one of the local hiking groups someday

    that sounds fun especially when trekking around the parks!🤗

  • [Gamers Nexus] Lian Li Lancool 207 Airflow Case Review | Cable Management, Build Quality, & Benchmarks
  • recursive_recursion recursive_recursion Now 100%

    For alternatives it looks like:

    also looks great for the same price class;
    prices ranging from $115 - $200 CAD


    Edit:
    The $200 option is a price premium tradeoff of non-RGB but White themed fans (this cost increase for white-themed items is commonly known as the "white-tax")

    While this isn't a sale I wanted to share this vid here as the Lancool 217 is currently the top competitor for both thermals and price! Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP): - $80 USD / ~$110 CAD (Before shipping and tax) (the 110 is an approximate as the import/duty fees will create a price difference) --- ## Canadian Listings - [Dark Blue Variant](https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product/zysV3C/lian-li-lancool-207-atx-mid-tower-case-lan207rx) - TBA (Will update here as soon as they're available) - [White Variant](https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product/BmyH99/lian-li-lancool-207-atx-mid-tower-case-lan207rw) - TBA (Will update here as soon as they're available) ## American Listings - [Dark Blue Variant](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/zysV3C/lian-li-lancool-207-atx-mid-tower-case-lan207rx) - $79.98 USD (As of Oct 4, 2024) - [White Variant](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/BmyH99/lian-li-lancool-207-atx-mid-tower-case-lan207rw) - $84.99 USD (As of Oct 4, 2024)

    Are there resources for learning social skills?
  • recursive_recursion recursive_recursion Now 100%

    perhaps joining a in-person social club might help such as:

    • cooking
    • gardening
    • knitting
    • pottery
    • escape rooms
    • any sport
    • boardgames
    • hacker/maker spaces
    • movie discussions

  • Why does the PC gaming industry still use such deceptive pricing?
  • recursive_recursion recursive_recursion Now 80%

    It might be due to Valve's legal and business actions

    Steam employee email:

    "We wouldn't be okay with selling games on Steam if they are available at better prices on other stores, even if they don't use Steam keys."

    at this point, masking up in public provides protections for both health and privacy reasons

    If the reader feels attacked

    Non-violent criticism can still be done by addressing the point/statement rather than attacking the person. I don't understand how gender is involved with fragile egos as it can be a universal problem.

    As a feminist I have to say media such as this comic hurts the movement as it makes it harder for us to garner support from people of all backgrounds. Not all women sterotype men, and not all men sterotype women. The best of both is possible, but like a scientist you have to be willing to find the truth.

    I find this similiar to how some:

    • anti-oil activists cause harm onto all people (such as causing traffic problems by sitting on roads) rather than protesting against oil companies directly.
    • schools create penalties for the entire class instead of singling out and isolating the bully.

  • Does Linux emit random sounds or wake up in the middle of the night?
  • recursive_recursion recursive_recursion Now 100%

    are you perhaps asking to disable the connect/disconnect jingle? As that can easily be done under the audio system settings > notification in KDE

    not sure if this is what you're asking for

  • Fragile
  • recursive_recursion recursive_recursion Now 90%

    I'm not a fan of this kind of media as it's still about kicking others down rather than raising people up which is really unfortunate as we've already got plenty of corporations already doing this to the majority of people

    If the essence of this comic is about critisizing the fragility of ego in men, then wouldn't a better solution be to encourage men's ability to self-reflect and learn empathetic communication (Non-Violent-Communication)?

    Personally I'm tired of these firestarter situations that pits people against each other as it's all so needlessly tragic. As someone with conservative family members this is just all too familiar unfortunately and I hate it as it's not useful or enjoyable for anyone.

    Like does the state of humanity's current shitty position really change by fighting each other? Personally I don't think so. Unless we're in a situation where civil disobedience is required to fight opression from the top, I see these situations as unhelpful and toxic for both feminists and men.

  • If people started referring to targets of Nintendo's lawsuits as being part of "Club Nintendo" do you think Nintendo would sue them as well?
  • recursive_recursion recursive_recursion Now 100%

    I'm hoping that Nintendo's consistently shitty behavior makes the general public realize that stanning for developers is better than stanning for companies

    Personally I'd recommend supporting indie devs as they're closer to "locally produced" than triple-A dev entities like Ubisoft, EA, Nintendo

  • Just got back from a long but enjoyable day as I've convinced yet another to escape Windows and join Linux Hopefully they should feel more comfortable with building their own computer and using Linux in general as I went through the entire process with them; from having them insert their new CPU all the way to boot switching between Linux and Windows 10 via ~~BIOS~~ UEFI They've got a few proprietary requirements remaining (hence the dual boot) but 95% of their apps are now on PopOS (they're planning to switch to Arch in about 3-4 months after some certain conditions are met) --- Just wanted to share this as I've missed posting on the fedicomms and also wanted to provide an update for afking🤗 Anyways here's another to Windows's death ~~knell~~ null!🎉

    [[@BrikoX@lemmy.zip](https://lemmy.zip/u/BrikoX)'s recent post](https://lemmy.zip/post/22973459) gave me a couple of thoughts that I'd like to share; ### Preface Current Context (as of Sept 18, 2024): [AMD's Reprioritization of Data Center Clients Over Laptop OEMs](https://lemmy.zip/post/22953027) --- If AMD were to upgrade the consumer class to server class via their CPU feature-set expansion and partnerships, they'd have a higher likelihood of acquiring new developers to [focus and develop AMD's drivers (esp on the Linux side; pending native support for developers)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAiiZPu7cs8) which could create a positive-feedback-loop for both AMD and the Linux community: - better Linux support on AMD = higher probability of adding new AMD Linux Devs - more AMD Linux devs providing improved Linux desktop experience = more Windows and macOS users jumping ship who would then also help improve AMD Linux desktop exp - (while writing, this made me think of SC2's Protoss Katamri Deathball) --- With AMD's current decisions I see: - AMD's laptop market shrinking; leaving competitiors to fill in for AMD's departure/vacancy. - Desktop PC users gaining a higher competitive advantage as performance headroom increases due to [AMD's pairing of CPUs with server-grade features with enthusiast mobos](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1tXJ8HZcj4) As a knock-on effect users would become more able to start new tech businesses powered by AMD components as self-hosting becomes more accessible via the AMD Linux relationship in addition to [NVIDIA's albeit small but increasingly competitive strategies to enter the FOSS competition](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LAADrcbSOw) - FOSS startups are in an interesting position as the increase in competition from both AMD and NVIDIA in the Linux space is likely to simutaneously: - increase capital expenditures(startup costs) due to expanded mobo and CPU feature-sets (in context to the Linux ecosystem) but - also decrease long-term costs due to increasing feasibility for users to self-host their own services thereby reducing cloud-dependant subscription-costs As a systems analyst the current environment in the tech space really tickles my brain in delightful ways🤔 --- **Please note however:** As I have no certainties about what the path lies ahead in addition to potentially being misinformed; please take everything I've said with a grain of salt in that all of this is speculation and are my thoughts alone (sadly I also have no insider information to provide further supporting evidence)
