Holy crap, have I been living under a rock? The Venture Bros movie/finale came out last year!! How the hell did I miss that news?

Yes, they're a publisher. They supposedly have/had a small team working on a Blade Runner game, but they have yet to release a game they developed on their own. Publishing is their thing, so Annapurna Interactive is kinda fucked. I mean, jeez, it looks bad, I mean they all walked out.

As you wish!

You never forget your first WYSIWYG HTML editor. Mine was Adobe Pagemill, which doesn't exist anymore but was also purchased from another software company. Ok, I shit on Frontpage a lot, maybe I've been too harsh. Those early WYSIWYGs helped us take those first few baby steps, and that's so important in the learning process. Like, I'm just now realizing this, but I think I owe my web development career to Pagemill, lol. That little program (as we used to call them, you remember) made it easy for me, I was like "uh...I think I can do this!"

This is true. In fact, many games contain a considerable amount of Great Britain

JFC, I had to check what community this was posted in. Omg, RDJ as Dr Doom!! This is really happening!!!

Hold on, this clown was moving without a lisence or incuranse? Lmoa he is so fudkec!

I believe ytDownloader might be what you're looking for. It's a yt-dlp frontend, you can export to video/audio pretty easily. And it's in active development. I've used it to export short clips to WAV a few times, nothing too fancy, but so far it works pretty well.

Ship computer in Star Trek: "please specify search parameters."

1989. I was 13. I was taping music videos on VHS and watched the music video debut of Metallica's "One" as it happened. It was the full length version with the scenes from Johnny Got His Gun, and I was glued to the set for all seven minutes. With Johnny's voice fading ("s...o...s...") into the darkness as the video ended, I was gripped by all kinds of intense feelings...sadness, anger, fear, confusion, relief, regret. It was metal, and I loved it. I had spent the previous two years wearing out my Def Leppard and Motley Crue tapes and really digging glam rock/metal in general, but this was my first exposure to real metal. Over time I'd eventually discover Megadeth, Anthrax, Slayer, and my love of thrash.

Why does it matter that the guy was black?

You know exactly why it matters. Go troll somewhere else.

Check out how news orgs are covering this story.

Associated Press: "Milwaukee hotel employees fired after death of Black man who was pinned to the ground"

NBC: "Video shows Black man being pinned down by Milwaukee hotel security shortly before death"

CBS: "Milwaukee hotel workers fired after death of Black man pinned down outside"

ABC: "Al Sharpton to deliver eulogy for Black man who died after being held down by Milwaukee hotel guards"

CNN: "A Black man died after he was pinned to the ground by security guards at a Milwaukee hotel. Now his family wants answers"

Fox 6 Milwaukee: "Hyatt Regency Milwaukee death; man’s family gathers outside hotel"

Fox News: ""

These are the earliest stories posted by each outlet that I could find. The headlines speak volumes. The local Fox affiliate omits the fact that the man was black in the headline, and Fox News has yet to acknowledge it even happened, which was 12 days ago (June 30). I'm sure they'll get around to it, though.

Argh! Yeah, sometimes it's better to start over than try to fix it. All those weirdass classes and bizarrely nested divs, screw that hahah

Oh jeez, it's coming back to me now. Yikes, what a terrible use of classnames. I'm sure they thought they had a good reason for it, but to me it's kind of a failure of a feature implementation if most of your userbase ends up not just ignoring it but outright deleting it because it's useless to them and just creates clutter.

Dreamweaver did have one saving grace. It had this code editor cleanup mode that removed empty and redundant tags, and at one point they added a neat option to remove Word document tags! From what I remember, it was pretty accurate and helped clean up a lot of shit. Unfortunately, it was unable to clean up code that it created itself.

Dreamweaver, gaaaah. Hey, at least it was better than Frontpage, which took a much faster nosedive into enshittification after Microsoft bought it and ruined the absolute shit out of it. Slightly better. Like, it had its own shitty inline styling that would get tangled up in itself and you'd have to clean it up manually, but at least it wasn't Microsoft styling.

Yeah, Fireworks compression was great! There was a period of time where I only used it to export jpeg, Photoshop's did suck in comparison.

PT stands for "physical therapy." They're trying to improve or regain mobility, likely lost due to injury.

Whoa, that is fucked up. They had no empathy for the guy, and the dude was one step away from CEO. Wtf is going on over there? They've been making sketchy decisions lately.

This is trippy, I didn't know Starship was a thing. JFC, I feel like I've been living under a rock. I'm reading up on it on their site, and I'm impressed by the range of shell support and customizable options.

This is gonna be really helpful for me, especially for work... I'm constantly switching between several perpetually-open terminal windows used for different things, and it's real easy to confuse what local dir I'm in and/or what repo/branch I'm connected to. I didn't realize I needed this in my command line. Thank you for posting this!

Sure! Note that everybody's different, so what works for one person may not work for another. The following is based on what works for me.

• Have you been prescribed meds? Take 'em. If you were prescribed Adderall, Vyvanse, or their generic equivalents to address the "inattentive" type of ADHD (like me): they are classified as stimulants and you can only get a month' s worth at a time (assuming you're in the U.S.), so set a recurring alarm on your phone so you don't forget to call in a refill or do it online. Put your local pharmacy's phone number and address in your phone, and take note of other pharmacies in the area in case there's a shortage (which is a thing nowadays). You are gonna have to advocate for yourself if they are out of stock, so get used to the idea that you may have to call and ask the pharmacy for the generic equivalent or other locations that do have it in stock. Side note: if you don't have insurance, GoodRx might be worth a look.

• If you get overwhelmed easily, do whatever is necessary to make yourself comfortable and eliminate distractions so you can focus. Music is good. Disabling phone notifications during work hours might help. Interruptions suck, especially if your task requires intense concentration, so don't let them disrupt your shit.

• Keeping track of tasks and deadlines will help you stay organized and feel more in control, so get in the habit of checking and updating your calendar (and/or task management app or text editor, whatever) every morning so you don't get caught off guard by stuff that is already planned. I know, everyone says make a list, which is cliche and doesn't always work for everyone, so find what works for you. Think of it as doing your future self a favor. You'll be grateful for past you looking out for you.

• Take a break once in a while. You might want to set an alarm for that. Step away from the computer and get some fresh air or something. Meditate or do breathing/grounding exercises if that works for you. You aren't a machine, and you really gotta be kind to yourself and remember that you have human limits. Taking a break is crucial, especially if you are hyper-focused on something and can't make progress; it's just gonna frustrate you more if you force yourself to spin your wheels, so be kind to yourself. For real, sometimes allowing your brain to relax can help when you get back to the task. Sometimes things fall into place when you look at them with fresh eyes.

Anyway. Sorry for the bigass bullet point blocks of text. I hope none of that came across as obvious, cliche, or old person condescending, but that is what works for me. It sucks that you have to deal with this and that you have to put in extra effort just to function in everyday life... believe me, I empathize with you. It can be a fuckin struggle. But the truth is, you can't control everything, so address the things that you can control. Do your future self a favor...identify the things that mess you up and find ways to work around them. And be kind to yourself, you deserve it.

I sincerely hope that helps. Feel free to reply with questions or vent if you need to, or DM me.

It's rare, but you ain't alone. Man, I feel your pain. This happened to me, too, in the 80s. I was undiagnosed ADHD, which was never suspected because at the time it was just "ADD" and I wasn't hyperactive. I had a lot of difficulty focusing, which affected my ability to learn and got me labeled -- yep, how'd you guess? -- "lazy" unanimously by all the adults in my life. I still got excellent grades most of the time, which just reinforced the lazy theory.

But wait, it got worse! I hit a wall academically when we started learning more advanced stuff and I wasn't able to brute-force my way into A's and B's, and so I immersed myself in art (as a way to cope, I'm now realizing in hindsight), graduated in the bottom quarter of a prestigious prep school, and graduated 5 yrs later from college with an art degree. And I didn't know what to do with my life, so I went back! For a second art degree! And I nearly flunked out again and had to reapply and finally graduated again...jfc, this is exhausting having to recount, haha...anyway, fast forward a lot and guess what? Now I'm a programmer. Web developer, specifically.

Never went for the CS degree. I wanted to, but I honestly thought I was stupid and utterly incapable of handling the curriculum - especially the math - so I wrote off that career path entirely. Like, I never gave myself a chance. I'm finally where I feel like I should be, but it took so long to get here, ya know? I wish I knew when I was younger that I wasn't stupid.

So much Boomer energy. Too bad it can't be used for anything other than hate.

Usernameblankface@lemmy.world, there's !pocketknife@lemmy.world (aka https://lemmy.world/c/pocketknife). It's not super duper active, but some of the regulars there might have whetstone recommendations for you.

Maybe I should apologize.

Don't. You were right to call them out. Like you said, the sticky keys accessibility feature is turned off by default and must be manually activated. Most of the people commenting in this thread didn't know it existed until now.

Besides, disabled people can't just go out and buy new shit every time they need to overcome society's lack of empathy. 20% of disabled Americans live below the poverty line -- i.e. they cannot afford basic necessities like food, shelter, water, clothing, utilities. They're twice as likely to be poor compared to "normal" Americans.

Fuck off, Nazi

Yes. Truth Social is an unfederated Mastodon instance. Not kidding.

You can buy stickers of this that you can put on your laptop. I've seen it on AliExpress, it's like two bucks.

Haha, awesome

telling you you're part of the problem because of your existence... It's not hard to see how that can really impact one's sense of worth to the world.

I don't mean to invalidate what you're feeling, but that's what it's like to be a minority in America. I have dealt with that in some shape or form for as long as I can remember. Sorry, I don't have any answers, but I do empathize with you.

You're comparing assholes to oranges

Facepalm oh jeez, I had the user style set to something other than the default, which renders it white. I don't remember changing that. Oh well, it's fixed now. Thank you!

This is the new Spiced Gold label. They did keep the barrel instead of changing it to a chest, but overall it's not exactly what I'd call an improvement. They had the equivalent of Dustin Hoffman's Captain Hook as their logo and they replaced him with David Arquette

Edit: also, he's holding his sword like it's a cane. Wtf lol

That song is stuck in my head now aarrrgh

Also, hi Ininewcrow!

Wow, that is really disturbing. WTF, IG?

I installed Linux Mint on an old laptop five years ago, it was pretty easy to set up. If you're coming from Windows, you shouldn't have much of a problem. It's pretty intuitive. I think I was using the Cinnamon desktop environment, which I'm sure has only improved since then.
