I do woodworking as a hobby. It doesn’t make money unless you invest in a full workshop and scale up production to the point where it would basically be a second job. Often the material costs alone are as much as it would cost to buy a completed item.

I’d still recommend it as a creative outlet though. There’s something satisfying about seeing that coffee table in the lounge and thinking “yeah I made that!”

I’ve reverted to buying the previous year’s flagships now. When you do a side by side comparison the only real difference between last year’s and this year’s is £300-400.

Because that’s still very niche. Flagship phones have more than enough power for the vast majority of users and have done for years now. The cost/benefit analysis doesn’t add up

You might be cursed. I’ve never noticed any choppy video and I was still on a pixel 4 until last week

Rarely happens though because who the fuck uses Linux?

Sounds like your hardware is fucked more than anything

Yeah all of my hobbies are ghost towns here. I don’t care about Linux, US politics or Communism so I filtered them out. Now all that’s left is general interest posts and AI generated porn.

Only half infinite unfortunately

I only save scummed the Gwent tournament as it’s a one-shot type deal. The rest of the game there was no need as it autosaves frequently

Usually standard graphics at 60fps instead of ray tracing and stuff at 30fps

I always get to the part with nuclear power, then I take a look at the space elevator objective recipes, realise I need to multiply my factory size by about 20 and just nope out

Oops you’ve picked the wrong audience posting that on Lemmy!

Chuffed is slang for very pleased in the UK. More specifically it’s when something good has just happened to you that’s causing you to grin uncontrollably like a lunatic.

As my crude father would say: “I’m chuffed to buggery!”

Although buggery is a bad thing on its own, when combined with chuffed it’s like a +1 enchantment instead.

1080p lmao it’s not 2006 anymore

Same with me and Black & White 1. I loved the hell out of that game and didn’t know about his reputation. There’s still a massive shortage of god games out there over 20 years later.

I only played the two “new” ones. They were both good, fairly interesting, but not amazing. It’s hard to say, but it just felt like something was missing from them. Maybe it was a lack of things to do between missions beyond finding my way into a few random apartments for no real reason?

It’s worth noting that I’m generally not into stealth games, I get impatient and just want blood, or think I can sprint past a few guards without being seen. (I think I fucked up in the police station in HR, and the entire interior of the building was just corpses)

Out of the two human revolution was a bit better but there wasn’t much between them.

I still would have played the next one if it hadn’t been cancelled sadly.

Hard disagree there. I’ve visited both and tried both. NYC pizza is disappointingly average.

NO

I’m pro-socialism and heavily regulated capitalism.

All that far left Marxist Communist crap is for people who like to pretend that it doesn’t fail every single time.

Remind me what happened to the Soviet union with their “Democracy”?
