Cable is dying and they will do whatever it takes to keep it afloat until the last second

They plan to support the switch 1 for ten years so you have a few years still. You also have a huge library of games to check out, so don't worry so much if a Switch 2 comes out next year.

How about the fact that baby Metroid was so important it still comes up all the way into Metroid 5.

Amygdala too big and cerebrum too small

Damn a kinetic sculpture. I've never gotten huge into Lego, just like watching people build on YouTube. But this one I might consider.

Don't usually laugh out loud at work looking at my phone. People walking by wish they could be in on the joke.

What's really interesting is to look at the time scale when each our pets were first domesticated. Dogs domestication happened between 20,000 and 40,000 years ago, while the cat started becoming domesticted only 4000 years ago. Pretty crazy to think how much of a difference their is in the time it took each of them to become adaptive to human society. Makes you wonder what house cats will be like given the time frame dogs have had.

Ha! You think flat earthers believe we aren't the center of the universe?

Technically it has been, but it's hidden behind some interesting steps.

It was put in the Switch code as an Iwata Tribute.

Hopefully things change once lemmy.world updates to 0.19 with scaled sorting. And maybe you guys and gals have some advice for fixing my issue.

To keep my feed fresh I subscribed to all the big communities full of memes. They do have engagement beyond funny jokes, but I'm tired of how political everything is.

I'm not trying to bury my head in the sand, on the contrary, im highly aware how much fascism has taken its grips on the world. But I don't need to be reminded everytime I'm on lemmy.

So I'm hoping once scaled sorting is on lemmy.world, the lemmyverse will transform. I hope I start seeing my hobbyist community come to life.

Or if people have recommendations for large communities not full of politics that works too. Maybe memes and shitposts aren't for me.

Why We Might Be Alone (www.youtube.com)

A public lecture from a scientist adding to the conversation. What makes this lecture interesting is he is not disproving that alien life can exist, but instead trying to curb expectations because of the little data we have to back up claims. More importantly is the message that it is important for scientists to be care of biases when discussing this topic.

These guys are prolific right now. 2 albums this year? Love it.

A couple weeks behind, but life's been busy. Can't believe its been 9 years since Pink Lemonade! But this album was worth the wait. I absolutely love how his voice reminds me of Cedric Bixler-Zavala from the Mars Volta.

Rock music has been good lately.

Lemmy is still small and growing, so trying to use your subscribed feed of smaller communities, mixed in with larger communities leaves you with a very uneven feed as your scroll. I like being subscribed to the largest Technology community, but also I am subscribed to the Movies and TV community. One is more active with posts and more comments, and the other is not so much. In this scenario, the current algorithms will always show a feed full of technology posts for pages, and you wont end up seeing Movies and TV until you scroll for a awhile.

I understand that the issues is, "The community isn't active enough". Fair. But could prioritizing smaller communities in the algorithm help these small communities become more active then?

If there was way for the subscribed feed to better spread out all of your subscribed communities over your front page, I think this would help smaller communities get more attention. Plus it would be nice to see my smaller communities showing up at the top of my feed. Instead it shows 5 Lemmy Shitposts, 5 Memes and 5 Technology posts, before I see anything else.

Im no programmer, so Im not going to act like I think this would be easy or possible, but I thought id throw this idea out there and maybe it will get some traction.

They haven't done anything innovative in a quite some time, but they are consistent. Still love their style and sound.

Does Spotify have a way to see if your computer is recording with your DAC's stereo mix? And if so, is there a way around it?

So these guys have really travel across the genre-verse. I think their entire discography is great, but there has been a slow evolution of their sound over the years. I think its great a this band can keep up with quality and change after 14 years.
