We had typing in the 90’s, but that was on electric typewriters, and was in I guess what you would call middle school not elementary.

Later there was ‘Mavis beacon teaches typing’ as the earliest typing ones that was really popular

That’s my philosophy too. I like browsing all so I heavily filter with keywords and blocking. My community block list is approaching 600

For Windows it absolutely is in order of listing however. Typical behaviour is no reply after a second against the primary DNS results in it moving down the list.

Redundancy aside, this is more important when you span multiple datacenters and always want lookups going to the completely local or most local DC available.

TIL about the Linux/BSD not having preference though. Good to know.

Me too, over 1400 hours. I use a lot of mods. I take a break for a year or more at a time and then get hooked again. I’m trying to wait for the NPC update until I do again

Another happy Connect user here and you can enable the beta branch from the play store. I ran into a bug a few months ago and made a post, the Dev had it fixed hours later.

Connect was also one of the very few apps that was very early to doing instance and other flexible filtering options. It’s so good I can browse All without getting upset.

Seconding Connect for filters, it was early to the game on this. I use keyword filters like ‘elon’ and ‘trump’ as well as instance filters and it’s been great for curating a non rage inducing Lemmy experience.

We’re up to 8 billion now, it’s crazy

Dead Kennedy’s

I owned this tape 😁

Yeah I thought the same. I played 1 from the very beginning up until release. When I heard about 2 I wasn’t even interested, it seemed to me it would be doomed from the start.

I haven’t either. Maybe it’s because I don’t use any social media but Lemmy

Same for the mouse. My ratio is ridiculous as I just leave everything seeding. I also use a VPN that allows port forwarding even though its not a big deal in my country I still do it anyway.

I’ve worked with POS systems my whole career and I still can’t help think Piece Of Shit whenever I see it

Common in Quebec for sure.

Yeah, exactly the same thing at play in the movie industry as well.

Thanks for the post, super appreciate the posting of other communties. I think this is a great way to grow Lemmy and create discoverability for niche communities, I’ll keep that in mind myself on future opportunities.

Windows has the free zones powertoy which does the same. So its an option but not in the OS by default.

Exactly the same here too. As a teenager we also all pitched in on a CD burner when they first came out and kept it at the BBS’s owners place, I just remember a single CD took forever back then when it was 1x and 2x recording speed. That allowed us to share a ton more without everyone having to get together on the LAN.

Ah thats right they just sold the game not the studio

Yeah I was an early adopter myself, it was my gateway drug into rimworld and dwarf fortress. I stopped playing shortly after they sold the studio
