Phunter@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the underrated quote that will stick with you for life?English61·2 months agoHaving untold wealth is actually not that good for you in a lot of cases. Generally, getting everything you want all the time is not good for your brain.
Now that you mention it, I was a soccer ref when I was 15. You’re right, it probably varies by state. I guess “child labor” is a pretty broad term that could include delivering newspapers and processing chicken on a factory floor.
According to a couple news stories I’ve seen pop up from time to time, we have child labor in the US too. It’s not legal and the children are usually the children of illegal immigrants. Maybe it’s sort of the same deal over there i.e. desperate people doing desperate things despite the norm.

Cocaine and Abel by Amigo the Devil
Phunter@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What advice have you heard or tried that was just flat-out wrong?English2·4 months agoMy old Honda just won’t die. I get an oil change every once in a while. And the battery has crapped out a few times in the last decade but that’s it. I hear safety features have come a long way so maybe I should upgrade just for that. I get the feeling that I’ll certainly miss the old Honda so I’m dragging my feet.
Phunter@lemm.eeto Memes@lemmy.ml•It is a tradition... dating back... for generations!English71·5 months agoI’ve used Dvorak for years now (15 or so?). I find it far more comfortable for typing in English than qwerty. You don’t have to reach as much to type common words because all the common letters are on home row. The less common a character, the farther it is from comfortable use. And it has a nice bouncy feeling because you often switch hands after one or two key strokes. When I have to use qwerty, I find it very uncomfortable to have to “spider” around with one hand for clusters of letters as I type.
Now, the REAL downside of Dvorak in my opinion is that every shortcut, hotkey, and keybinding in the universe is designed for QWERTY layout. Playing a new game? Don’t forget to re-map every key except M and A! Careful not to miss any! Game doesn’t let you map a key to “comma”? Looks like you have to switch to QWERTY to play this game (and type in chat with it blegh)! Re-mapping is a huge pain and all the convenience of learning something like Vim is overshadowed by the keys getting scattered all over the place. I’m fine living with an awkward CTRL-C and CTRL-V, but for most people I can see why they wouldn’t bother.
tl;dr: DVORAK > QWERTY for typing in English, but it comes with annoying drawbacks
Phunter@lemm.eeto Technology@beehaw.org•Asleep at the Wheel in the Headlight Brightness WarsEnglish22·5 months agoThere definitely seems to be a lack of regulation and/or enforcement. If your headlights are so out of whack that they endanger other drivers, then we’ve completely lost the plot.
- Dave’s Killer Bread, wheat or seeded
- Thick layer of Skippy peanut butter, smooth
- Strawberry preserves
Cut it in half and serve with a glass of milk.
This is basically dessert.

Maybe I’ll come back to it someday when I feel like troubleshooting more.
Chili crisp and peanut butter. Good on rice and vegetables. Sometimes I add some teriyaki sauce or hoisin sauce for sweetness.
The Color of Magic may be my favorite book of all time.
Phunter@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What games have you replayed in adulthood that still held up?English7·10 months agoThe Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Super Metroid
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy’s Kong Quest
Chronotrigger
Advance Wars 2
Psychonauts (maybe that’s too new idk)
I am also here to rep Corpse Recover No. 2.
It’s very refreshing. Gin, lemon juice, lillet, cointreaux, and a touch of absinthe.
Phunter@lemm.eeto Gaming@beehaw.org•Starfield has made me obsessed with no man’s skyEnglish2·2 years agoI got extremely bored and frustrated playing NMS. I’m glad other people like it, but for whatever reason it felt like an unrewarding slog for me.
Yeah, it’s a bit like System Shock. If you don’t like monsters jumping in your face then you might want to avoid Prey.
Everyone else though… please play Prey. It was so good and didn’t get the attention it deserves.
Phunter@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Which is the best community on Lemmy right now?English3·2 years agoHey be nice! And furthermore Canada is already burning anyway.
There’s pros and cons to having a single standard difficulty. But anyway, you can use mods/editors to make the souls games (or any game for that matter) much easier.
I tell people directly when I appreciate something they did.
