Hmmm, for something that very few other people on lemmy have?

For the general world?

I tried to talk someone out of suicide and failed. Can’t think of something less cool or envy-inducing.

Bad shit happened. When I asked why, the answers were lame. When I accused god of being an asshole, the defenses were the very definition of not even being wrong.

miss the proliferation of arcade video game cabinets.

One of the few nice things that’s come around my area is a $15 all you can play pinball place. I love it.

Your original comment isn’t that far off, though. Donkeys are often kept with other animals because they can be ornery and mean as fuck, killing predators that come near where they’re being corralled. They’re known as the rural alarm system for a reason.

I once had to help an ass that had either been dumped or escaped and ended up at a park until the animal wrangling guy came. It was the sweetest creature I could ever imagine. All it wanted was to stand next to me and lightly push its head against my arm until I gave it pets and scratches. One of the best 30 minutes of my life.

One that’s big enough to cuddle us. They also should get along fine in the increasingly small environments we are being shoved into. Having a newly domesticated animal that is limited to the ultra rich with giant estates is pointless, right? Bonus points if we can make it an environmental win as well.

Just about everything ‘big’ fails at being in an apartment though. Big cats, even the smaller ones among them, need more room. Same with bears, moose (cooool, dudes, am I right? Imagine lounging with a moose), elk, whales, dolphins… bah.

My idea, then? Giant birds. Big enough to lay on you when on the couch, but could be let loose to fly around while you’re at work. It would take an incredible amount of domestication to get them to go and come back, but if we’re talking hypotheticals and theoreticals and blue fantasy, I think giant birds would be the way to go. Take your pick of them. The steller’s sea eagle and especially the phillipine eagle speak to me, but I wouldn’t turn my nose up at a swan, a goshawk, or a red kite. Feed them well at home, pretend that during the domestication process we made the nesting area easy to clean, and imagine being able to set it loose on stupid fascist leaders.

sometimes nvidia drivers are in a state that breaks display reinit on wake from sleep

Hmm, got a question for you about that. What did that appear as for you? Just a black screen and nothing else if it went to sleep?

I had a recently installed app fuck something in my settings so my display is going to sleep after 10 minutes, and when I wake it up I get a normal appearing lock screen with a login. If I login, the screen goes black and all I can see is the mouse cursor. I think about 1 time in 10 it will have no issues and I get back to whatever I’m doing.

I didn’t start with manjaro, but it was the only one that seemed to play nice with my system and programs out of the five or so I tried. I’ve never had an issue with it after 2 years, so… eh?

I was surprised to hear neopets is still a thing. A friend went and checked it on a whim.

Okay, let’s make this simple enough for you. Pictures, everybody. Pictures for the man with the mind of a sloth. Exhibit A. Exhibit B.
