“‘I never thought leopards would eat MY face,’ sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People’s Faces Party.”

I personally disagree that the original is best. It’s high up there, but I think some of the later titles have improvements that eek out the #1 spot.

I’m a fan of the “piece swap” feature, and later games have polished the piece lock over the original. Tetris 99 was the sweet spot for games that I’ve played.

Neovim is a rewrite of the vim project. From a high level (or from the perspective of a beginner to both), there’s not much difference between the two. That is, basic usage will be the same regardless of which ones you choose. Like, the model philosophy and default key bindings are basically identical.

You start seeing major differences with more advanced usage and under the hood.

• Neovim is built to support async processing, while Vim is entirely synchronous

• Neovim offers native Language Server support while Vim requires plugins to do so. (Language Server Protocol is part of what makes VSCode so powerful)

• Vim plugins are written with a custom script called “vimscript” while Neovim plugins are written in Lua but also supports vimscript.

There are more differences, but this should cover the basic differences. I haven’t used neovim in an age, so I’m up for any corrections if anyone has any

A TV Show (or cartoon) based around Among Us, feels like they missed the boat on Among Us popularity.

Then again, I loved Infinity Train, wish the show wasn’t cut short by Zaslav’s budget cuts. I could see Among Us being similar to The Thing (one of my favorite horror movies), i think there’s a chance it’s a good show

Fugitive is a common git plugin for Vim. If you’re not using vim, not much to check out. If you are, highly recommend it!

This is the same (based) judge that previously ruled that the GAC ban for minors was unconditional.

The new ruling overturns the part of the ban that restricted Medicaid funding for going to GAC for adults.

Does anyone know what parts of the bill are still active? I’m guessing the requirement for informed consent is still required, but I don’t know what else

When I read Hitchhiker’s Guide, I pronounced it b’tell-jew-EEss

There’s a thought that:

Never make fun of people for mispronouncing a word. It means they learned it by reading

Best I understand, this is a quote without a known attribution

Currently in Florida, don’t have immediate plans to move. My mother-in-law is recently widowed, so we want to stay close.

I’m trans, but I also live with a lot of personal privilege (well paying job with non-state insurance, white, married, liberal city, no kids, haven’t faced direct discrimination). The particular set of laws that Florida has passed are limited in how they affect me.

That’s not to say i don’t care – I’m actually livid with my state government. Many of my trans/queer friends have rightly left the state already, but I personally can stay around for longer to push back as I can

I’ve spoken to my brother in Illinois, and if worse comes to worse, i have somewhere I can go if Florida becomes unlivable

I deleted most of my comment because what i had written was basically nonsense.

The main point that i was going for is that “action adventure” isn’t a useless category, since it’s a hybrid of two separate genres.

You can have non-action adventure games. Something like A Short Hike comes to mind. It didn’t need to turn/text based explicitly, but that’s common.

You can also have action non-adventure games. You mentioned pong, but this could be anything that requires real time responses and control. Beat-em-ups are common.

Action-Adventures are hybrids of the two: real time inputs with discovery elements

Action games and adventure games used to be two separate genres, but their similarities caused people writing magazine articles to group them together, under a single term “action-adventure” but they were often grouped together. You can think of it as “either or”, rather than some weird neologism

[Edit: i can’t back up the statement that they were merge by magazine writers, that’s just where i first saw them merged]

Also Port Wines. It’s what we got into before started falling into the Whiskey rabbit hole

Whisk(e)y drinker here, preferring neat. I like all types, especially if they are sherry-finished.

I like too many for a concise list.

I think Stranahan’s is the best bottle most people sleep on. It’s a Single Malt made in the US, so most Scotch drinkers dismiss it because “it’s not made in Scotland”, but most American drinkers are looking more for Rye and Bourbon flavors. It’s just delicious imo

Ardbeg Wee Beastie is another favorite. Peated Scotches aren’t for everyone, but I think it has a great “campfire” quality

Navazos Palazzi is a Spanish whiskey that we really like, and it’s one i never recommend to beginners. It’s harsh and sweet, but somehow it works. I’ve heard it described as “maple cookie covered in fresh pavement”, although I think it evokes more of that cut up tire that you can find on some playgrounds. It’s basically “fuck you” in a glass, in the best possible way

For cocktails, i always go for Coke and Makers, with some grenadine.

Perhaps !asexual@lemmy.world?

Only created a week ago, but it has a few active subscribers, could be worth checking out

I might have an artist now (recommendation from someone in my derby league). If I go through with it, I’ll make sure to follow up with pictures :-p

My great, great uncle was Gene Krupa, a popular/influential swing drummer in the 1920s through 1940s. By contrast, i have absolutely zero musical talent.

My third cousin, once removed (that is, my father’s third cousin) is Mike Shanahan, the former head coach for the Denver Broncos

Not a family relation, but someone famous I know… I taught a Roller Derby clinic alongside Erin Jackson, who won the Gold Metal at the most recent Olympics in speed skating

Honestly, I put little stock into these relationships. They’re little more than personal trivia at this point

You’re awesome, thank you.

I saw the “instances” link at the bottom, but I assumed it was just a variation on the join-lemmy.org site (which I see is another one of the links down there). Please forgive me, still learning the platform :-)

Thanks for the update and for the link to the reasoning – I had completely missed it.

Based on the initial post (only mentioning defederation without linking to the Details), it sounded like the three servers had a falling-out of some sort, but this sounds reasonable. I can appreciate the difficulty of trying to maintain a welcoming environment.

From a user perspective, I think I’m mostly frustrated with the lack of visibility with these changes, specifically trying to keep track of what I do and don’t have access to. I don’t think that’s the responsibility of beehaw to implement, but I might continue to look for solutions

I think the concept is intuitive and interesting, but the implementation/interface isn’t.

I must have missed a memo. Why did beehaw defederate with lemmy.world/sh.itjust.works?

I really want to like Lemmy, but if we can randomly lose access to content like that, it leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

Always fun to learn something new. I’ve primarily used vim since 2016, and i never knew g_ to jump to last non-space character in the line
