DLSantini@lemmy.mlto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some double standards in society for men ?186·1 year agoThe fact that any point made in this post, no matter how reasonable a complaint, or how heinous it would be considered if done to a woman, will likely be derided and dismissed as misogyny, mansplaining, whining, etc, and all male participants in the discussion labeled as incels.
DLSantini@lemmy.mlto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the most petty/pointless/pedantic hill you're willing to die on?851·1 year agoTo streamers, YouTubers, etc. Your Patreon supporters are called Patrons. Not fucking “Patreons.”
Band Maid’s World Domination, the limited edition version, specially.
DLSantini@lemmy.mlto Games@lemmy.world•Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 Delayed AGAIN — This Time to the First Half of 2025English81·1 year agoI wrote this game off years ago. As far as I’m concerned, even if they ever release something, it doesn’t exist.

I’d buy more money, obviously.
I mean, NOW I’m suspicious that they in fact do.
DLSantini@lemmy.mlto politics @lemmy.world•'Easy to Pay for Something That Costs Less': New Study Shows Medicare for All Would Save US $5.1 Trillion Over Ten Years103·1 year agoRepublicans don’t want this, because while they like to claim “blah blah spending this, spending that”, it’s not actually about reducing spending, it’s about punishing the poor(and a wide range of minorities, obviously). So the fact that giving MORE people access to healthcare would cost much LESS money in the end, means fuck all to them. Their only goal is maximizing the suffering of anyone who ain’t them, and convincing their base that someone else is the cause of all of their troubles.
Democrats meanwhile, have no interest in doing this either, since most of them aren’t even remotely progressives(whether they pretend to be or not), and like the Republicans, it doesn’t do much to line their pockets. As long as they can keep everyone just fucked over enough, while pretending to support progressive policies, the can keep pointing at the Republicans as boogeymen, saying “look, see what the right wants to keep from you? Better vote for us, or you’ll get trump again. ThIs iS THe mOSt imPOrTAnt elEcTIon oF yOUr lIfe.” But as soon as you vote them in, where does all of that support for those progressive policies go? POOF Never to be spoken of again, until next election, because they didn’t ever really support such policies in the first place.
So sure, I’m not going to go so far as to say that both sides are the same. Because clearly one side at least isn’t trying to bring back literal Nazis. But make no mistake, even if you have to vote Democrat to desperately keep MAGA out of power, the Democrats are not your friend. Democrats are not leftists. The are center right, at best. It’s just the Republicans have completely lost the plot, and ran so far to the right, that everyone else looks to be left by comparison.
DLSantini@lemmy.mlto News@lemmy.world•Conservatives push to declare fetuses as people, with far-reaching consequences.21·1 year agoPretty soon they’ll be trying to put me in prison for mass-murder every time I jerk off.
RPG’s. Specially turn-based. But it was many years now that they started turning those into shooters “with RPG elements.” At least we got some of my favorite series, like Mass Effect, Fallout, Bioshock, etcetera, out of the deal.
DLSantini@lemmy.mlto News@lemmy.world•American flags should be born in the USA now, too, Congress says203·1 year agoWell thank fuck they’ve started addressing such important issues.
DLSantini@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•I wonder if its possible to pass a already existing windows install into qemu (fedora 40 kde)11·1 year agoYes. Yes it is. I had a single Windows install that was my main system. I eventually decided to semi-switch to Linux, and passed that SSD through to a VM, along with the GPU and half of my USB ports in order to continue running that Windows install for gaming and Adobe stuff. You just have to keep messing around with the config of the VM, and look up info about getting your UUID from Windows to add to your VM config, so your Windows license/activation will keep working as is. There are guides and info for all of this if you Google around. Don’t remember exactly where I found those guides, as I ran that setup for about year and then switched that Windows install back to bare metal, and it has been about another year since then. I do remember that I got the same boot issues as you when switching back and forth between bare metal and VM, and I had to run the Windows boot repair tools to get everything working. Trying looking into that.
Windows 11, but I just finally got around to switching back to Garuda Linux last night. We’ll see how it goes. Still have a lot of headaches and assorted annoyances to work out.
DLSantini@lemmy.mlto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If Trump loses in 2024, do you think he'll run again in 2028?21·1 year agoEither he’ll run and keep ripping the Republican party to shreds, or he’ll drop dead. Either way, it’s a win.
DLSantini@lemmy.mlto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Wording change and clarification for purchasing Immich · Discussion #11313English2·1 year agoI’ve been using it for the last year or so, no issues, as long as I confirm there are no breaking changes before updating my docker container. My only real problem is that I sorely, SORELY, miss the editing features I had in Google photos. There’s been more than a couple of times now that I needed to quickly edit a photo as I would have done with Google photos, and when I couldn’t, got aggravated enough to consider switching back. Still chugging along on immich, though. Still holding out hope that one day they’ll add at least some basic editing features.
DLSantini@lemmy.mlto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Lemmings of Lemmy who came over from Reddit what do you miss about Reddit and what do you not miss?4·1 year agoEvery type of community I could want to participate in almost certainly exists, if not multiple, and actually has other people there. More than a few things I’ve tried to find an equivalent for on Lemmy, and it either didn’t exist at all, or was made at some point but is fully dead.
But I abandoned reddit maybe 2 or 3 years ago, since pretty much everywhere was becoming (even more of) a toxic cesspool.
DLSantini@lemmy.mlto World News@lemmy.world•Why the Swedes love doing something that Americans hateEnglish661·1 year agoBecause here in America, when they take my money, it’s to give away to oil companies and weapons dealers. Not to give us all health care and affordable housing.
The original Star wars trilogy was overrated, the sequels were underrated, and I’d rate them all to be equally mediocre.
Con Air is the most 90’s movie that ever 90’s its way through the 90’s.
