I wrote that it was people who sneeze “super loudly” that seem to be doing it for attention, not just anyone who makes any vocalisation at all.

Some people feel the need to turn every sneeze up to 11. Saying like a cartoon character is a good way of putting it.

In the UK it’s shepherd’s delight / warning.

That’s an interesting little US/UK difference I never knew before today.

You’re totally normal and in fact it’s the people who are, consciously or unconsciously, choosing to vocalise the “ah-choo!” that are the weird ones, at least in my book.

It actually really bugs me when people sneeze super loudly, I swear some people just do it for attention.

Something about how her face is drawn in these comics really bugs me.

The only problem I’ve had was the Mac not going asleep properly, and immediately waking up. But that’s something I encountered on other distros including Mint also.

Found a fix for it.

Ctrl key hasn’t been a problem. Often on many distros the old hybrid Nvidia graphics and the old Broadcom card were both problems. But ok on Mint and EOS.

Endeavour OS has been the best I’ve found on my 2012 MBP

I didn’t buy an aeropress for years as I had a coffee machine and was like, surely that’s better.

But finally got one, and my god. The simplicity. The ease of cleaning. The nice coffee.

It’s basically my sole way of making coffee now, despite more pricey alternatives at my disposal.

Actually Sonic 3 is a slight improvement in this regard once you get the hang of things - Tails can be more helpful, and carry Sonic to higher ledges

Sonic 2.

Controlling Tails can be good fun if you’re very young and don’t fully know what you’re doing!

Can be hard keeping both characters on screen at times though.

After resisting at first, I started listening to the RDR1 soundtrack again recently and then the nostalgia became so strong I just had to buy it. I bought the Switch cartridge from Amazon for £30 a few days ago.

Is it a fair price? Not really. Is it a game I don’t expect a heavy discount on any time soon because it’s Rockstar? Yes. Am I enjoying playing again, at way higher resolution and clarity than it ever was on PS3? Absolutely.

It’s actually a better port than I was expecting, and much more of an upgrade than I expected from PS3.

The Settlers II… what a game.

I’m still desperate to find a port of the Mac version, the DOS intro just doesn’t hit the same.

Encona hot sauces are some of the most readily available in the UK, reasonably priced, and they generally slap

Oh wow, that must have been amazing. I only saw it when the BBC broadcast it. But I don’t think I’ve ever been so moved by a science documentary.

• The Farthest (about NASA’s Voyager missions)
• Hurt Locker Hero / The Deminer (about Fakhir Berwari, a bomb disposal expert who disarmed thousands of landmines in Iraq with just a pocket knife and a pair of wire clippers)
• The Devil We Know (tells the story of DuPont’s decades-long cover-up of the harm caused by chemicals used to make its popular non-stick Teflon products)

All three are very good, very moving documentaries.

I’ve never been banned from Reddit even temporarily, I just like Lemmy more

We came, we saw, we kicked its ass!

If there’s a steady paycheck in it, I’ll believe anything you say

Janine, someone with your qualifications would have no trouble finding a top-flight job in either the food service or housekeeping industries.

Ghostbusters:

• Back off man - I’m a scientist

• Listen! You smell something?

• What about the Twinkie?

• Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria!

• Yes it’s true, this man has no dick

• Ok, so… she’s a dog

• When someone asks you if you’re a god, you say yes!

• Aim for the flat top!

• Cross the streams

…and much much more

We’ve taken way too many things that don’t need to be plastic and made them plastic
