I think I'm Skyrim levels of in love with HZD now. It's not too difficult to run into new types of machines in the game, even this weird undocumented Strider I've come across.
:blobsweats: Garry’s Mod faces deluge of Nintendo-related DMCA takedown notices
― @engadget
「 Facepunch Studios has announced on Steam that it's removing 20 years' worth of Nintendo-related workshop items for its sandbox game Garry's Mod to comply with the Japanese company's demands 」
Here, but not here. I’ve been thinking a lot lately about what drove me off Mastodon. #Zionism, #Islamophobia, #AntiArabRacism (an odd one to affect me, since I am NOT #Arab, nor have I ever claimed to be) were the usual suspects.
Instance #admins & #mods did what they do best on the fediverse: they attacked. I was but one of a handful of #ProPalestine voices on here that needed to be silenced. #Dogpiling is one of their tactics. People come out of the woodwork to attack. It overwhelms.
They do this to score points with admins and mods calling the dogpile. Days and days of it, without relief. You block Every. Single. One. of them, but it’s never enough.
Finally, it seems as though they grow tired, and move on to their next victim. Until, months later, they start it all over again. Someone shares an old screenshot of you saying, #FromTheRiverToTheSea (or something equally pro-Palestine), and once again, all hell breaks loose.
They do this until you finally can’t take it anymore, and you leave. You stop logging on because you feel so sick and depressed from it all. You’ve been #harassed and #bullied nearly to the point of breaking. You’ve been called horrible names by horrible people who have thousands of followers.
The #Fediverse fucking sucks. All of social media sucks. It’s all just a toxic waste land filled with pathetic people who have nothing better to do than to attack #minorities. 😑
@dec_hl Yes, it is looking at the amount of followers you got. So they are not overlapping that much with the Amiga bubble here I guess. But what's even more funny, I am not too much into Amiga myself as C64 is always first for me. :)
I'm not saying "drill a hole through your #Baofeng" but what I am saying is, I widened the mic hole with a tiny hand drill and my voice does not sound nearly so muffled... if you do this, you could drill through your mic... which would not be good... also dust and things... and no more warranty... on your Baofeng #UV5r etc
Edit: Actually, I did this to two Baofengs and both sound better on the other end now... wind and plosives are an issue... but I side-mic anyway
@howtophil Good idea. If it's practical I'd probably take the mic out ("some disassembly required") but it sounds like a good mod. For wind and plosives, a little foam stuffed into or slightly covering the hole might help.
