  • Please help! We are doing an Angel tree gift this year for an 11 year old who asked for video games. Unfortunately, nothing indicates the platform, and I've tried and failed to find that out. How best to proceed? We looked at visa gift cards, but it looks like those don't always allow you to add them to your console. Would a GameStop gift card be the best option?

    If you could travel to any fictional world, which one would you pick and what would you do there?
  • GrouchyLady GrouchyLady 1y ago 100%

    The Shire. I'd just live in my Hobbit hole, eat second breakfasts, and take long walks. Peaceful!

  • So, what's stopping you from getting a foldable? [Poll]
  • GrouchyLady GrouchyLady 1y ago 100%

    Camera. If I'm buying something that expensive, it better have a great camera.

    Durability concerns. If a little speck can ruin the screen, then it's not ready to be a daily driver for me.

    What are the center yellow keys? I feel like I need a spider key, but I don't know why.

  • What is a good hobby for a depressed person?
  • GrouchyLady GrouchyLady 1y ago 100%

    Knitting, crocheting, embroidery, cross stitch, etc. The work is meditative, and you get in a groove waiting to see what the next row or stitches will look like. Producing an object feels productive, and gives a feeling of accomplishment.

    Choose bright colors and fun patterns, and it's a lot of fun. There are patterns for all interests, so don't think this is the realm of only little old ladies. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

  • I like a good UX

    Amen. And he got screwed from the Reddit api fiasco. If i remember correctly he was on the hook for as much as $250k in refunds because he's had to shut the app down and refund subscribers.

    The guy has to make a living, so I don't begrudge him that one bit.

    Agree on Pocket Casts. It works great for me, very clean UI.

  • GrouchyLady GrouchyLady 1y ago 100%

    Also a filthy casual refugee. I play practically every day, but I don't make a lot of effort toward leveling. Instead I enjoy exploring, camp building, and whatever events strike me as fun.

    You’re right. There are lots of legendary items intended for these builds, and they can be some of the strongest in terms of DPS.

  • What have you been playing and what do you think of it? 7/16/23
  • GrouchyLady GrouchyLady 1y ago 100%

    Started Oxenfree. Kinda a point and click mystery adventure. I'm not too far in yet but I'm enjoying the story and humor so far.

    Finished Diablo 4 main story and I'm enjoying the sides quests more than the main!

    I'm always playing Fallout 76. Having fun with the new quests and events.

    What's the issue with WhatsApp? I thought it was great for privacy.

    I’m considering moving from Android to iPhone, but I read a lot about iPhone images being over processed. What’s your opinion? Am I going to be disappointed in the camera? I did find this thread where one user mentioned it may be the viewer on the iPhone, and that pictures look fine viewed on other devices. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/252045269?answerId=254613831022#254613831022 I’m curious to hear opinions. How happy are you with your phone camera?

    Just started this little shawl, hanging out in the hotel tonight. I love travel knitting. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/018c2b21-eead-4752-9295-ce98b2e0cb15.jpeg)

    What is your favorite thing to make with sock yarn, other than socks? I enjoy knitting socks, but I don’t enjoy wearing hand-knitted socks (blasphemy, I know!) Unfortunately, I’m not a big wearer of shawls either, though I will knit one occasionally. I’m looking for ideas for my sock yarn stash. Ideas, patterns, anything welcome.

    I’m a huge fan of podcasts, and I’m looking for some good writing-related ones. One of my favorites is Quitcast by Becca Syme. She talks about how techniques don’t work for every writer, and how to find what does work for you.

    Does anyone have data on the number of Lemmy users currently? I saw Lemmy.world has about 12k now (yay!), but I was wondering if there are any estimates regarding the increase from the Reddit exodus.

    Is anyone else looking forward to the new Atlantic City expansion? I wasn't a huge fan of the Pitt, so I'm hoping this one is more up my alley.
