19·1 month agoLol, there’s nothing about this that isn’t awesome.
Enemy Territory is still around in the form of ET: Legacy. Not sure how active it is but maybe you could find some willing players on here.

Aussie Enviro@aussie.zone•Australia sues 3M multinational for record-breaking $2bn over Pfas ‘forever chemicals’ in firefighting foamEnglish
7·1 month agoFor anyone who misread the title as tragically as I did, 3M is the company. The amount is 2bn.
Cool. Can they also drink and get married?

Comradeship // Freechat@lemmygrad.ml•Americans don't even want to be freedEnglish
18·1 month agoReddit is a hellsite, but I have to wonder how different the results would have been if the poll asked about specific policies, rather than invoking the scary s-word. USAmericans are so conditioned to a knee-jerk hate response on that topic that a poll phrased that way almost feels like bait.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How much do corporations determine what you eat on a daily basis?English
61·11 months agoIf you use any diet tracking app, they’ll have that data. Any supermarket loyalty program can infer a good amount. Some can be inferred from location data (eg amount of time spent at a restaurant). Menulog, ubereats etc will track it as a matter of course. that’s just off the top of my head.
EDIT: I misread the question.
If you go up a level from the obvious interaction of marketing on food choices, there’s still a hell of a lot of corporate influence on the food environment. Your job, your rent and utilities determine your food budget, which limits your choices. Your job and commute also determines the amount of free time you have to cook. Your commute is controlled in part by car and fossil fuel industry. If you don’t drive, you’re limited to what you can reach and carry via public transport or bicycle infrastructure (both also gutted by car lobby). Supermarket corps determine where the stores are, what they stock, and how much it is. So you’ll find your choices limited by travel time, availabilit, and budget again. You can go up another level again and manufacturers and producers will have influence over (for example) the FDA, which determines safety standards of what you eat. So even if you consider yourself unpropagandised, corporations still control pretty much the entire food system and what you eat. Unless you’re living off-grid and growing everything yourself, pretty much every food decision you make is touched by a corporation. Even then, you’ll have to buy your seeds from somewhere.

Silent these days. For a while I used the “black headcrab nearby” sound from HL2 as a text tone tho. Was fun watching people’s reactions to it.
I used RHvoice for a while and could never get it to work quite right. Switched to SherpaTTS and never had an issue. Bonus: it has a GLaDOS voice option.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Linux Begins Preparing For The Lenovo Legion Go 2 HandheldEnglish
3·11 months agoI’m glad they kept the detachable controllers. Makes it much nicer to get actual work done on it without looking like a freak. I just hope they release an official keyboard dock for this one.

Android@lemdro.id•Google Pixel devices appear to be preparing icon theming using AI and custom stylesEnglish
5·11 months agoPixels are pretty easy to get custom ROMs on. I’m sure you can find something that doesn’t include this.
What the fuck is a labubu and why are they suddenly a thing.







It looks to me like the 12v supply already isolates the batteries (some kind of barrel jack with integrated switch), but regardless I would definitely be charging them external to the device. I have a dedicated charger already so it would be quicker and easier to use that and just swap in a new set as needed. I’ll be 3D printing adapter housings such as this, so adding a diode into that assembly should be easy enough. Thanks for your advice!
