Does anyone have any experience with a pizza stone (take note that I said "stone", not "stove")? Apparently, they allow you to make restaurant-quality pizzas using an ordinary stove or grill.
It looks like there are now three parts of the fediverse: the Mastodon side, the "free-speech side", and the instances that are allowed to federate with threads.
What I really hate about riding in other people's cars is being forced to listen to whatever shitty radio show or podcast they turn on. Sometimes I feel like it's just an excuse to get their peers to listen to their favorite podcast, radio show, or whatever.
For example, was forced to ride in a car with a family member who claims to be mostly independent, but listens to this far-left, anarcho-communist podcast called "Behind the Bastards" and while being forced to listen to it, all that went into my mind is "the is no way this guy isn't a fed". The host openly talks about shoplifting, killing landlords, fighting fascists, and all of that under what appears to be his real name.
That was of course, an extreme example, but I can't stand listening to modern pop music garbage or neocon talk shows on the radio either. The latter is especially annoying because it's for people who think that they know the truth about everything but don't realize that they are in a limited hangout.
I know it's universally agreed upon that the driver is the one who controls the radio, but for whatever reason, that doesn't apply when I'm driving because apparently my views (and therefore the subjects I'm interested in) are too niche that they make other people feel uncomfortable, especially when women are around. I've been told by multiple people that I need to relinquish control of my radio to the front passenger because of that and I can't argue because I technically don't own the vehicle that I drive.
I agree that PC is better than console and that consoles are basically dead at this point, but I fucking hate the culture behind the "PC Master Race" with a passion.
Why? Because they are the most entitled, spoiled, rotten pieces of shit in the gaming community. They are like those fast-food customers who place the most ridiculous special orders, or the upper middle class to rich people who can only watch movies in a home theater set-up. They won't play a game unless they can play it on max settings with the most perfect frame-rate.
This is also one of the many factors that is preventing the "year of the Linux desktop". Even if they game already has a Linux port that is perfectly playable, I know a lot of people who out-right refuse to play on Linux because "the game runs better on Windows" (and by "better" they mean only a slight framerate increase). Let's see if that attitude still stands when Windows goes full SaaS and requires you to be micro-chipped in order to activate it.
I could go on. I also don't like their obsession with RGB lighting on everything and making their computers look like they were designed by aliens. How are you supposed to sleep at night if you are someone who keeps their computer in their bedroom?
I've been PC gaming since I started gaming, and I have always been perfectly content with a mid-ranged PC or even a toaster if I'm just sticking with indies and emulators. No RGB lights, no fancy keyboards or mice, no curved monitors. I really wouldn't have it any other way outside the inability to emulate 7th gen games.
@icedquinn I'm no expert on the history of Jews or the Palestinian people, but from what I can tell, even though that the ethnic Jews may have originated from the area, they were a stateless nation for the longest time. They were mostly nomadic, like gypsies and their diaspora eventually brought them to Europe.
So let me get this straight, when there is a war happening half-way across the world, all of the sudden, college students start an insurrection, yet when these college students were forced to take the jab a few years ago, they stayed silent. I really don't understand why these students decide to stand up to something that doesn't even apply to them when a few years ago, many of them either had to choose the vaccine or working McDonald's for the rest of their lives, and some of them who took it ended up working at McDonald's anyway due to the mass layoffs.
And before anyone asks, no I am not pro-Israel. In fact, I've been saying for the longest time that both sides of the war are being controlled (look up Albert Pike and the Three World Wars).
