Lemmy is the only website that causes my CPU fan to ramp up, other than games or heavy 3D stuff. Why is that?

Firefox on Windows 10 on Ryzen 5 5600X. It does seem to run better in Chrome. It's only noticeable when the page is loading.

I would be satisfied if Bethesda did stick to their "ancient ways". Focusing more on environments and immersion rather than character-driven storytelling like any other RPG. Of course they did neither for Starfield unfortunately.

The only consistent thing is coffee, green tea and water. I'm new to tea but it might supplant coffee entirely actually. Green tea makes me feel good :)

As for food I switch it up a lot but I often eat plain yogurt with muesli for breakfast.

I was walking behind two dogs and their owner. I was walking faster than them and one of the dogs looked at me and proceeded to persistently move the other dog to the side so that I could pass. It was absolutely clear it knew what it was doing :)

Usually just a physical SIM but I've used pre-paid eSIMs in other countries. Quite convenient!

I'm European. My first thoughts go to immense and diverse cultural heritage, pollution, amazing food, food sickness...

It's not a prediction, {Company} will simply push whatever future that benefits {Company}.

This is just gaming revenue, otherwise Microsoft and Apple would clear.

I use a 42" 4K monitor. Same working area as 4 x 21" 1920x1080 screens but more flexible. Been doing so for ~10 years. When my old 39" 4K monitor broke I used 2 x 24 inch monitors + laptop screen for a while but I ended up buying another big monitor instead, it's just so convenient.

I agree with holding off on Starfield. Bethesda games are usually instant buys for me but this time I'll probably wait years before buying it. My love for Bethesda games is all about exploration and for some reason they replaced handcrafted story-filled landscapes with procedural generated ones? Hopefully modders make some cool content that is worth exploring in the future :)

I can afford to buy or subscribe to services but at this point streaming is just more annoying than pirating. With pirating I can use my favorite player (mpv), maximize video quality (high quality blu-ray rips), watch offline, no bugs or buffering, instant seeking et.c. As for games I might pirate a game before buying it but usually I just buy it since it's convenient (unless it has intrusive DRM).
