Whatever you pick checkout Yousician if they have it. It’s great for learning.

Confirmed 😄

OP using word ‘convinced’ is relevant here because whilst most people in USA ‘need’ a car (because there is no practical alternative to driving), they are being convinced every day that a private car is the only viable solution to transport in general…

… and then of course you get everyone freaking out when someone has the audacity to suggest that installing a dedicated bike / bus lane would mean less people need a car, and that would save everyone time and money.

Also while I’m ranting, I’m so over people harping on about how they can’t rely on public transit and that’s why they need a car. Like reliable and affordable public transport is some magical and unobtainable goal.

But then when gas prices inevitably get crazy high, or they get in a wreck, or traffic is a mess then that’s just The Way It Is and in no way an indication that maybe everyone driving a personal car for every single trip isn’t the most reliable or sustainable way to run a city.

10/10 would visit again.

I fell in love with him after the execution of the Dasani video. Walking backward ten minute single take, amazing: https://youtu.be/wD79NZroV88

Did you see spin off Practical Construction yet? That’s next level production, my wife laughed at me waiting for next ep like it’s GoT or something.

Also do you notice that YT never pushes PBS videos? I’m subscribed but always have to go to channel.

Since you like a lot of same as me: check out Climate Town.

Indirect, but you could run a Storj node and donate the profits to a good cause of your choice.

Also, assuming you don’t buy more hardware, and you believe sustainability is a good cause, then running a node in itself is a good thing.

This. I’m a computer programmer, never been in a union, but after twenty years of startups I cannot believe how good it is to be at a small, stable, employee owned company.

Only looking back do I realize that the people doing the actual work were never in control, and just how damaging that is.

To pour you life and soul into building something (time, and time again), and then have it taken away from you again, and again.

Never going back.

Well, not necessarily, right? It could be funded any number of ways, but on YT you’re locked in to either watching their ads, or paying their premium.

Well yes, this is the problem isn’t it:

1. Monopoly X sucks
2. Federated alternatives developed
3. People complain that there’s not enough content on them

I’ve been really enjoying https://nebula.tv/, but yes, I wish they’d built it on top of PeerTube.

A lemmy for video streaming

There are even companies springing up who will run and host it for you, for a price, of course.

Can anyone speak to the difference of the data returned in the options given, or is it the same any they’re just trying to do analytics?

For me it’s Half Life 2 because I have such a specific and vivid memory of playing it the first time in my rainy London flat in 2004.

It was this exact moment when I had the experience, for the first time in my life, that:

I’m in this world, I am a part of the game.

Funny OP calls out Half Life: Alyx as one of the best VR games, when VR is all about being ‘immersive’.

But for me that moment 16 years earlier will always be the moment I first experienced being ‘immersed’ in a video game.

Is is pronounced eye-vee-eye, or pipe-slash-(slash-?)slash-pipe(-pipe?)?

I think, I hope that search engines could solve this?

We read the reviews, we figured it couldn’t be that bad. It was worse. https://maps.app.goo.gl/Vd7ce36pNzdWb5vRA

Bwahaha:

4. Even if you do want a pizza, you should probably be careful with this provider. In testing, I once nearly ordered every item on the Domino’s menu, which would probably have been expensive and embarrassing.

Reminds me of the old adage:

A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any invention in human history – with the possible exceptions of hand guns and tequila.
