I use akkoma for my instance instead of mastodon because it was easier and less resource heavy. honestly had no idea it was a fork of pleroma.

Honestly at the end of the day I just use stuff that is better with resources and easier to setup so Akkoma instead of Mastodon, Piefed instead of lemmy.

oh yeah it's huge. As of right now Pandemic Horde have lost over 16,000 characters that have quit the alliance. they're pretty much done. End of an era.

In Ontario and Alberta we have a lot, like seriously a lot, of really dumb people. Anti-Vaxers, Maple MAGAs, etc. Ever wanted to see the Confederate flag flown in the most Northern part of the continent possible? cool, go to Dryden Ontario.

84% of the cases came from these places.

People thinking this is a joke or laughing at this don't seem to remember when Apple released what was essentially a sock for your ipod video. or how about the $1000 monitor stand? or the wheels for your Powermac that cost hundreds of dollars.

This is Apple folks. If they can find a way to nickle and dime their gullible cultish user base they will do it. They've been doing it since...well since the company was founded.

a few years ago I actually started DDP Yoga after messing up my back. it works, it REALLY works. it's like "holy shit I can move again this is amazing" works. Seriously if you have any kind of movement issues try DDP Yoga.

as someone who has a multi-gpu laptop...yes, please do it. I can't even use x11 on my laptop and I'm stuck on wayland.

What helped me when I was a kid were games like Quake 3 Arena, Worms, and Mechwarrior 2, 3, and 4.

Q3A was because of the speed. you had to be fast with the mouse if you hoped to compete. Add to the fact that the bots in Q3A, at the time anyways, were quite good. you can play it offline with bots or even over a local LAN.

Again going back to a LAN staple but Worms is also good. you need precision with the mouse on that one. lots of geometry at play.

Finally the Mechwarrior games which really emphasize the mouse and keyboard combination. Torso Twisting and Flicking, positioning of your legs in regards to your torso, etc. really helps with mouse coordination.

I play EVE Online soooooo this happens daily? multiple times a day?

The political dramas in that game could put actual real world political drama to shame. I mean take what's currently happening in game right now. A massive alliance named Pandemic Horde decided to evacuate the space they held. fair enough, the issue? Leadership made the announcement they were leaving said space and then...leadership quit. in the same message. Thus all the regular members, literally hundreds of them if not well over 1000, were left on their own in hostile space with all their assets stuck in stations that were now actively being shot at and destroyed by opposing alliances. The players are essentially stuck because all the upper leadership of Pandemic Horde have the massive capital ships that they could have used to save their members by getting them out of system or aiding in destroying the attackers but they said nope, we're not going to do that. It's a cluster fuck.

They seem to be doing well in Canada? I don't know within the past couple years I've noticed more and more Wendy's opening up in Toronto.
