What's the point of installing the app then? Just use netflix in a browser if you're going to use netflix. The only reason you even needed the stupid app was to use the download feature

I had to help my sister keep her 8 year old Mac going or buy a new secondhand (cheap) machine. With the options out there and with the state of Windows, I didn't even consider it.

She's ended up with her same 8 year old Mac with Ubuntu 24.04, and I've been really impressed with how it's actually great for non-technical users these days! And works really well on old hardware.

This should give her another few years of life out of the thing without worrying about software support.

For me it's more like 95% or more. In the last year I've played

  • Factorio (heavily)
  • Halflife
  • Halflife 2
  • Portal 2
  • Supreme Commander
  • Rimworld
  • World of Goo
  • Untitled Goose Game
  • Railway Empire

I don't think I've played many games that are younger than 6 years.

Most of the good games have been made already

Wow am I the only gamer who had no idea you could organise games into groups in steam? It never even occurred to me to look for this feature

On a macbook? You can't plug a normal keyboard in without a USB hub because there's no USB-A port

What? Stack overflow is still very relevant. I don't even know what bubble you're in if you think it isn't.

Honestly confused by your comment.

American political ideology as a whole has shifted left in recent years

What the fuck is this bullshit. This is the opposite of what has happened.

Maybe in modern media. He's definitely not portrayed as an equal or opposite to God in the bible. He's just another angel

I'll do the reverse - I think most people would expect homebrewing beer to be quite hard to get started with, but for $50 you can get everything you need to start making a really quite good beer, and save money at the same time (homebrewed beer is usually much cheaper than store bought)

If you want to get started search for "brew in a bag" and buy a kit beer mix. You'll need a handful of equipment like a brew bag and fermenter, but that stuff is really cheap.

Then you can indeed go down a massive rabbit hole of refinements, but it just amazed me that the first beer you make will already be a good one.
