I was referring to the image-only link and the embed that you suggested. Sorry if that wasn’t clear.

Neither of those is a good approach, because part of every xkcd comic is the hover text.

who@feddit.orgto Gaming@beehaw.org•Adult gamers of Lemmy how do you find time to game without being exhausted of the screen?English7·24 hours agoI often sit at a desk all day and all evening. I find that these things help:
- Good chair. Height adjusted for my keyboard/mouse height. Upright back. Lumbar support. Comfortable-but-supportive seat.
- Good posture (when I remember to pay attention to it).
- Split, tented keyboard. Mechanical switches that don’t require too much pressure.
- Good display. IPS panel. Light anti-glare surface. Backlight that actually dims the light source, either without pulse-width modulation, or with PWM at such high frequency that it cannot induce flicker fatigue. Brightness turned down much lower than the default. Calibrated at that brightness setting, optionally to a slightly warm color temperature.
- Muted room lighting. Nothing behind me bright enough to reflect much on the screen.
- Comfortable clothes.
- Cup of water. Regular trips to the kitchen to keep it filled.
- Frequent short breaks. Start the laundry. Get a snack. Look at objects outside. Wash a dish. Bring in the mail. Make the bed.
- Exercise. At least 10 minutes daily; preferably 30 minutes or more. Stretches. Squats. Rhythm games that require full-body movement.

It’s a phrase coined very recently based on a misconception, and happened to be picked up by some online publishers. That’s all.
Saying “its an actual term” [sic] just attempts to give it an air of legitimacy, without actually meaning anything.
The phrase itself is not only ignorant, but also insulting. The gamers it refers to are not Baby Boomers, but Generation X, which had nothing to do with the damage to society that Boomers are famous for and most of us in younger generations are suffering from now. (Housing crisis and out-of-touch legislators, for example.)
who@feddit.orgto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Boomer shooter Gravelord adds controller support and gets Steam Deck VerifiedEnglish18·3 days agoA game category made up by people who think “boomer” means “anyone more than a few years older than me”.
It was a few years ago when I read Signal’s statement about this, so I’m afraid I don’t have a link for you.
I believe you when you say Molly functions, but it’s important to note that without Signal’s blessing, anyone using Molly can be locked out of the network (and their chats and contacts) at any moment. It’s not the same as official interoperability.
I wonder if the Digital Markets Act will eventually force it.
who@feddit.orgto News@lemmy.world•Elon Musk Rage Quits Livestream After Being Cyberbullied by GamersEnglish3·4 days ago“There’s a lot of r-----s in the chat,”
What is a “r-----”?
Racoon?
Rocker?
Rodent?
Unless Signal’s policies recently changed, Molly is not interoperable, since Signal does not allow third-party clients to use their servers/network. That would make point 2 correct.
If that policy has changed, then someone please link the announcement so I can update my notes.

I guess you missed this part:
And Colossal claims it has turned grey wolves into dire wolves by making just 20 gene edits?
That is the claim. In fact, five of those 20 changes are based on mutations known to produce light coats in grey wolves, Shapiro told New Scientist. Only 15 are based on the dire wolf genome directly and are intended to alter the animals’ size, musculature and ear shape.
who@feddit.orgto Technology@lemmy.world•For the First Time, Artificial Intelligence is Being Used at a Nuclear Power Plant: California’s Diablo Canyon.English19·4 days agoDiablo Canyon, California’s sole remaining nuclear power plant, has been left for dead on more than a few occasions over the last decade or so, and is currently slated to begin a lengthy decommissioning process in 2029.
So this AI is apparently not operating a nuclear plant, which would be concerning.
For now, the artificial intelligence tool named Neutron Enterprise is just meant to help workers at the plant navigate extensive technical reports and regulations — millions of pages of intricate documents from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission that go back decades — while they operate and maintain the facility.
Ah, that makes more sense. I hope it doesn’t end up leading humans away from correct understanding of safety regulations.

But the wrong technology infrastructure could allow such a future government to watch every move anyone makes to oppose it. It could very well be the last government we ever elect.
who@feddit.orgto Technology@lemmy.world•Example #3194 for blind people enjoying Mastodon/the fediverse BECAUSE many people post with picture/video descriptionEnglish5·6 days agoPeople should not be treated badly in general, but not “called out”?
I run into video-link-only posts in text forums on Lemmy every so often, and IMHO, they contribute little more than noise. There’s nothing wrong with encouraging their authors to at least add a summary or start a conversation about the subject matter. Without that, video links that aren’t of obvious widespread interest usually feel like they’re treating the rest of us as a click farm, whether we’re vision-impaired or not.
Not much of a trailer, but I think it qualifies as a teaser.
