I went with the super budget option and got the Nubwo (G06 I think?). I’m very very happy for the price I paid. Arctis Nova Pro Wireless appears to be the other end of the quality/price spectrum.
what about stoat?

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•I think Jon Stewart and John Oliver should promote socialism without even saying socialism.
0·7 days agoOliver practices criticism that could align with anticapitalism, but I have not heard him actually properly criticize the capitalist mode of production. He strikes me as more of a social democrat

0·14 days agoI don’t know much at all about mice but it’s weirdly interesting to me that mice apparently love lettuce. I’ve always been told that mice have a similar metabolism to humans since we’re both omnivores. But if I gave a human a whole head of lettuce on top of some normal food, I know what would be left over at the end of the day.
And they actually have the balls to really do it. The only Western sanctions with teeth hit easy targets like Cuba. Europe couldn’t even stop buying Russian gas and oil to sanction Russia for invading Ukraine. Weak shit
You make a good point. Maybe it’s the tone that put me off. I know too many people who go off on rants that sound similar, who don’t bother actually understanding what’s wrong with the world and as a result have no idea what capitalism even is. But that’s clearly not you
Idk spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories lowkey exacerbates the problem. What else should money be but fake? That’s what money is. Your food and water is not being poisoned.
What should we do, reintroduce the gold standard? Awful, impractical and counterproductive. We can hunt for a nondescript evil hooded figure pouring poison in our drinking water but we won’t find them.
Our food is unhealthy because capitalism doesn’t reward production of healthy nutritious foods, it rewards maximizing profits and oligarchs lobby governments and design their own regulation. Banks are allowed to create money but governments refuse to because of neoliberal ideology being pushed by powerful elites. These structures are real, known and we can fight them.
Disguising our problems as unsurmountable and untargetable evils makes us helpless. Identifying our problems specifically gives us actionable goals.
Now the pedophile thing is true tho, so hard agree there lol

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Are gender-exclusive groups ever ok?
0·2 months agoHaving been a man my whole life, I have never struggled to get into any female-dominated hobby group etc. It’s not an issue whatsoever.
Maybe female-dominated friend groups, but those usually contain more men than their male-dominated counterparts.
Some men just reaaaally wanna portray themselves as victims of gender discrimination.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Are gender-exclusive groups ever ok?
0·2 months agoIs it problematic? yes. Is it evil? no.
As long as these gender-exclusive spaces don’t preclude people from participating in wider society, it’s fine. I can live just fine knowing I’m not welcome in womens safe spaces. I think most women are okay with not being invited to the boys weekend.
Just overall this seems like a non-issue. Where I draw the line is things like, men not letting women into certain jobs, or barring them from voting, etc. Basically if you prevent people from participating in society in some way. That has nothing to do with people wanting their own spaces.

Linux@discuss.tchncs.de•The new Microsoft copilot key is impossible to properly remap.

It’s 2026, Finjamin. The handjob could also be given by two men! Or a man and a woman. Or a nonbinary person and a woman. Or…
What are some examples of features rhat should be native but aren’t?
I use a couple extensions but nothing that I think should be in the core browser.






Whats the type system in Haskell like actually? I only know it’s a functional language and there’s like monads but never actually wrote any
