Yamada's First Time. lol I don't like ecchi, but I got into romance anime last summer and this one was just so funny, sex positive, and oddly sweet at times. It's def kinda ecchi though.
You can just search terms right within Element to find public "rooms" (like a Discord Server). There's rooms for all kinds of things. There are private rooms, too, but someone in the room would have to send you a link to it.
I love the Element client for Matrix. I use it with my friends and I have joined a lot of communities on there. It's Discord-like, but I personally find it much easier to navigate than Discord. It's free, open source, decentralized, you can self-host if that's your jam, it's got some solid security and usability features, call quality is great, and I've found it to be very stable and reliable. I'm a little biased because I personally don't like Discord, I find the UI clunky and unpleasant to use, but I love using Element. If you love Discord, you will find Element familiar, but you may or may not appreciate the differences.
Satisfactory, Valheim, The Riftbreaker, and Necesse are favorites of mine that I come back to a lot
PLEASE. FFS, exclusivity is BS and we need to move away from it.
Agreed. The game looks pretty sick, but I hope you can get some like cool armor for the main character or something.
Dantotsu, hands down, imo. Great UI, lots of extensions and configurability but simple to use.
Please. For the love of god. Mega Man Legends 3.
For sure. I'm looking forward to playing Spider-Man 2 in a couple years. 😅
Seriously. I'm always psyched when a great game gets ported to any other console. I'm a PC player, I don't even play on consoles (except Switch), I'm just happy more people get to experience games that made me happy. Exclusivity makes sense for the console makers, but from a consumer perspective, it's fucking stupid. It's so weird to me that people defend it so fiercely.
The joke is that all the adventures Mario has in the games are just escapist dreams, because he's actually just a normal plumber who is sad and unfulfilled by his life.
Holy crap, that thing had a backlit LCD and could play 16-bit home console games on the go. What a beast. How did I not even know this thing existed? 0.o
Yeah, I knew it was bad when Loki, a show I really liked, dropped it's second season and I just didn't even care. I'm sure it's solid, I just still haven't seen it. It sucks because the MCU was like "my thing" that I was super into for a really long time. I geeked so hard over it. I still haven't seen Echo, either, or the last couple movies. It's a bummer.
YES, FINALLY! 😁 Love this show.
I think this is the answer. It seems like Microsoft is laying the foundation to go all-in on cloud gaming and/or gamepass. I think their ultimate goal is to dip out of the console wars altogether and be at the forefront of what they think could be the next frontier in gaming.
Honestly, it's kinda smart. Idk if cloud gaming could really be the future (at least in the US) until we have better infrastructure and access to fast/reliable internet without data caps is more ubiquitous, but carving out a niche for themselves instead of locking horns with the competition is pretty clever. It's worked for Nintendo. Most PC and console gamers I know also own a Switch, in part because of the quality of the exclusives and in part because of the relatively accessible pricing of the console, but also because the Switch hardware offers a unique experience (well, it was a lot more unique pre-Steam Deck).
Isn't the whole point of OF that content creators can work independently? It feels pretty lame to game that system and try to insert yourself as a middleman.
YouTube. I know it sounds goofy, but often you can search something like "Baldur's Gate 3 gtx 1060 6gb i7-4790K" (or whatever your specs are) and you will get tons of videos of people running it on their systems. If you happen to have common parts, you will not normally have trouble finding a benchmark for a rig very similar to yours for most games, but even with more niche hardware, you can usually find something helpful, even of it's just like a similar GPU or another laptop with the same chipset, or whatever your case may be.
Beyond that, Steam's hardware requirements on the store pages of games and pcgamingwiki are great resources.
I'd also say you can look on protondb--it's for Linux gamers, so the results may or may not be applicable if you have a Windows system, but in most cases, if there's a report that something runs well on Linux machine with the same hardware as you, it's going to be very similar on Windows. The other way isn't so applicable, though--just because something runs poorly on a Linux rig doesn't necessarily mean it will also run poorly on Windows, as the problem could be with the compatability layer and not the hardware.
None of these are a perfectly elegant solution, but they are typically reliable enough.
My personal AOTY was Oshi no Ko. There is a lot going on in that show, even just tonally between drama, suspense, and humor; but it balances everything so well, and it has some really well-written, complex women characters, which was awesome to see.
Beyond some excellent characterization and great writing, the music is amazing, the art direction and animation are gorgeous, and the overarching mystery and supernatural twist make it extremely compelling.
Season 2 is one of my most anticipated upcoming anime.
Omg I didn't even put together that Wednesday is itself a spin-off until I read this 🤦♂️
Does the "Redirector" add-on affect your browser fingerprint in any way?
I use it in my normal Firefox setup, but I've been playing with Mullvad browser and I've kept everything to the defaults so I have a good option when I want a little more anonymity without needing the nuclear option (Tor) for sensitive-ish-but-really-not-all-that-sensitive browsing.
I'd like to add Redirector into the mix, and my inclination is that it shouldn't affect the fingerprint because everything is handled clientside from start to finish with that add-on, and the redirect is handled before the browser even connects to the redirected site. With that said, I'm honestly not 100% sure if simply adding an extension of any kind would be enough to change the fingerprint and cause me to lose out on some of that sweet, sweet herd anonymity.
Anyone know the answer to this that can fill me in? I would appreciate it. :)
Is it possible to find an album on DoubleDouble if it's on Amazon Music but not Spotify or iTunes?
Is anyone here familiar with using DoubleDouble? It seems like you can download from a bunch of services, but you can only search from Spotify or Apple. Is that correct?
I am trying to track down an album in FLAC format that is not on Spotify or iTunes, but it is on Amazon Music, yet DoubleDouble can't seem to find it even if I paste in a direct link to the album. Am I doing something wrong, or is that just how it works?
Questions about stability and Nvidia performance on vanilla Fedora (Gnome) vs KDE
Hi! I have some newb-ish questions, and I was hoping some Fedora veterans could help me out.
I have been using the KDE spin of Fedora since 36, and I love it. I distro-hopped for years, but I have not had any interest since landing on Fedora. I have been using the KDE spin because I love KDE. I love how lightweight yet feature-rich and customizable it is. It can really be anything I need it to be, and it's amazing.
With that said, there are two recent happenings that have made me question whether I should switch to the original GNOME version:
- I've been having some minor issues lately with F39, like audio not working after I reboot, so I had to eeventuakly remove it altogether and use pipewire, which has been working better. Nothing big, but minor issues like that. I've heard that the GNOME version performs better and is more stable/has less bugs, but idk if there's any truth to it?
- I have an Nvidia GPU. Wayland support is pretty bad for me, and I've been relying on X11 all th
I've been watching Gal & Dino, and idk if I like it yet or not, but I really like the juxtaposition of a more silly, western style cartoon dinosaur that lives with an anime girl. lol

Are there other animes that combine different art styles for comedic effect that are good?
Is there a "check disk" utility for Linux?
I was just accessing some files off a portable HDD and my power went out due to a storm. When it came back on, my HDD wouldn't mount anymore. I booted into my Windows partition and had it scan and repair the drive, and thankfully it works again.
But I'm wondering--did I have to boot into Windows for that? Does Linux have any such utility?
Gentlemen, it is with great displeasure that I must inform you that we're doing it wrong.
Has there been any update on when the kbin API will be available? A few weeks ago, I heard it would be "a few days," and haven't heard anything since.

Can anyone assist with correcting my KRename regex?
I'm trying to rename a bunch of files by removing all parenthetical from the file name EXCEPT if they contain a specific word.
For instance, say these are my files:
- File 1 (Boop) (Ver 1).file
- File 1 (Beep) (Ver 2).file
- File 2 (Soup).file
- Another File (Seep).file
- Yet Another (Ver 5).file
I want to KEEP any parenthetical with "Ver" and a number, but I want the rest gone.
So it should look like:
- File 1 (Ver 1).file
- File 1 (Ver 2).file
- File 2.file
- Another File.file
- Yet Another (Ver 5).file
I can write \(.*\) for Find and leave Replace blank to get rid of anything parenthetical, and it works great.
So I tried \((?!Ver).*\) and a bunch of alternatives, but it gives me the same result of just removing all parentheticals (even the ones I want). I have tried lookaheads, lookbehinds, and a bunch of syntax tweaks, but I always either end up with no parentheticals or all of them.
Any suggestions?
Any PS4 peeps here? I've noticed that PKGs for Rune Factory 4 Special and Rune Factory 5 are not on any of the usual sites. Does anyone know where they could be found?

What is a yet unsolved/unexplained mystery that you find particularly interesting, creepy, or exciting?
It could be seemingly paranormal or simply perplexing. Just a story that sparks your curiosity.
Do we have any idea how GameCube and PS2 might perform on the Retroid Pocket 2S?

YSK that a lot of common questions/complaints about Lemmy are presently answered by kbin
This is not an attempt to convert Lemmy users, nor is it a slight on Lemmy. I'm sure there are plenty of reasons why Lemmy works better for some, and I love the fact that we not only have multiple choices, but multiple choices that allow us to interact with each other regardless! It's amazing. Lemmy is great, no shade.
With that said...
Why YSK: I see a lot of users posting frequent questions about Lemmy that are currently answered by kbin.
For example:
- The ability to block a whole domain, or subscribe to one
- The ability to subscribe to individual users
- A built-in search tool to find communities all over fedi (kbin, Lemmy, Mastodon groups, etc.) with an indication of how active they are
- Mitigation for the "tracking pixel" issue
I find that almost every day, I see Lemmy users asking about features and I think, "well, kbin does that." I think it would be worthwhile for more users to check into both platforms and decide which might be best for them.
Black rectangle often flashes randomly at the top of my screen during normal use. Any idea how to stop it?
Hey, friends! I have a weird issue that I'm hoping someone can suggest a fix for, cause I have searched all over and cannot find an answer.
Essentially, for the last several months, I randomly get these black flashes that happen at the top of my screen. They take up the top 1/4-1/3 of my display and they're gone in an instant. They happen at random times. Not while I'm gaming, but sometimes when I'm watching a non-fullscreen video, browsing the web, etc. I cannot purposefully trigger it, I have no clue what it is. The only thing I can think of is maybe it's krunner, because it's positioned similarly to the krunner search bar? I really have no clue.
It seems to pop up more often while I'm active (typing, scrolling, clicking, etc.) but not in any one particular program or at any particular time, and it definitely happens when I'm inactive, too. It's really hard to pin down what triggers it.
Specs:
OS: Fedora 38 (KDE Spin)
Display Server: X11 (but it happens on Wayland, too)

Can anyone that knows their way around a Hot Rod Deluxe III help me dial in a good, classic pop punk tone?
I'm a long-time guitarist, new to playing this genre. I'm trying to get a sound reminiscent of Blink, Sum 41, etc. Their sound is crunchy, but has a lot more clarity than say metal guitar usually has. I'm having trouble making it punchy enough without getting too muddy.
Pedal-wise, I only have a tuner, a crybaby, and DOD FX510-B Overdrive Plus. I'm playing with a crappy single coil strat that I'm hoping to upgrade to a nicer humbucker strat one of these days.
I know those bands are probably rocking Marshal stacks and have lots of stomp boxes to play with, but if anyone can suggest some settings that might get me closer to that sound with the gear I have, I would really appreciate it. 🤘
Anyone have CRT shader suggestions for the RP2+?
I'm trying to find a good CRT shader for RetroArch to preserve transparency effects (like the waterfalls in Sonic 2) and dithering. The problem is, a lot of shaders that are lightweight enough (easymode, lottes-fast, etc.) don't seem to do the trick, the ones that work well (sonkun, royale) are too heavy for the hardware, and some that might be solid contenders are made for 1080p+ resolutions and create giant, goofy scanlines at 480p.
The handheld systems are so easy with the lcd-v2-color shaders, but finding a good CRT shader for home console emulation has been tough with this device.
Anyone have a good recommendation?
