Mongostein@lemmy.cato Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Steam Beta finally enables Proton on Linux fully, making Linux gaming simplerEnglish2·1 day agoOh weird. I had an issue where I couldn’t play Dawn of War II with my brother on windows from my Mac. I solved it by using windows through boot camp, but that’s so lame.
I wonder if it’s the same issue.

Mongostein@lemmy.cato Selfhosted@lemmy.world•how are my fellow peeps hosting your music collection these days?English5·2 days agoI was going to try to host my music on Jellyfin, but I had an issue.
Since 2005 I’ve been curating my music collection with my old iPod that I still use.
I like my albums in release order so, with the iPod in mind, probably 80% of them are named [year] - [album]
Lidarr and Jellyfin won’t find them because of this and I don’t want to manually sort through 2000-some albums.
So I still use my iPod (20 years old next year!)

Mongostein@lemmy.cato tumblr@lemmy.world•2 bros chilling in a storage space because they're gay34·2 days agoHey, heterosexual life mates are a thing.
Can’t two dudes can’t enjoy musicals and a storage room without you folks immediately jumping to “they’re sucking each other off”
I’m the same. Giving yourself an extra 15 minutes more than you expect the commute to take will save you hours when you don’t have to deal with hitting someone later.
No such thing as a fast lane on roads that aren’t highways or freeways
Mongostein@lemmy.cato AntiTrumpAlliance@lemmy.world•I Couldn't Be Arsed To Watch The Vid - HTHEnglish1·3 days agoThat’s great, but it doesn’t change that the masses didn’t care at the time.
Personally, I’d call an edge-lord comedian turned social advocate using his massive platform to speak up against fascism a win for progressives.
Mongostein@lemmy.cato Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Marjorie Taylor Greene Says Americans 'Have Been Brainwashed' By Fox News, New York Post As She Opposes U.S. Entering Israel-Iran WarEnglish28·4 days agoYesssss. Eat each other.
What? He’s not talking about Gaza, he’s talking about Iran.
Israel’s actions toward both countries are bad, but Iran is not a genocide. At least not yet.

But also knowing about it without being able to do anything isn’t great for the mental health either.
It’s a real conundrum

You’ve got 7 cars but your license is 3 years out of date? Dude, you’re a millionaire just go pay that shit or send someone to do it for you.
Mongostein@lemmy.cato AntiTrumpAlliance@lemmy.world•I Couldn't Be Arsed To Watch The Vid - HTHEnglish3·4 days agoYes, but was everyone everywhere talking about it prior to around 2010?
No.
This was around the same time as the Chappelle show with Chappelle wearing white make-up and impersonating a generic white person.
Kimmel wasn’t doing a generic black person stereotype, he was imitating a specific person and put on the make-up to look more like that person. Tasteless? Corny? Dumb? definitely. Racist? …. I guess when you’re looking at it through the lens of today’s social discourse, sure.
Anyway, he stopped doing it prior to blackface becoming everyone’s favourite topic, and apologized when the keyboard warriors went after him years later.
Times changed and the masses decided this was unacceptable. The message was received and acted upon. People change. Give it a rest.
Mongostein@lemmy.cato AntiTrumpAlliance@lemmy.world•I Couldn't Be Arsed To Watch The Vid - HTHEnglish101·4 days agoThere’s a crazy phenomena since the invention of social media. People learn about things and pretend they knew about them all along.

Blackface
This is in poor taste, but it is not blackface. Blackface is a specific type of makeup where the lips are made ridiculously red as well.
This happened sometime before 2005.
Blackface was not a part of the “social conversation” or whatever at the time. Basically nobody knew about it. Jimmy learned about it and decided to stop doing so it.
Today he is using his platform to speak out against fascism. Drop it. Screaming to death about imperfect advocates only helps the fascists win.
