"Höhere Übersterblichkeit"

Ich weiß was es ausdrücken soll, aber ich mag es nicht.

You just need 1 person you know working in a morgue. That’s enough to convince you that the last pandemic was really bad.

Apple is redesigning the Magic Mouse in c/[email protected]
[–] BudgetBandit 5 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (1 children)

I got a Mac and wanted the mouse. It is shit. It is the worst mouse I’ve ever had. It’s even worse than a $10 mouse with squeaky buttons. That thing cost 3 times as much as my 12 year old daily driver and even has less functions than my old mouse, even on Mac. My mouse has 5 extra buttons which I programmed to mimic the Mac specific actions and this old thing does more Apple only shit than the Apple mouse 2.

I even fixed the Magic Mouse 2‘s feet myself. The original ones don’t glide at all, so I fixed it by covering the feet in regular cheap ass clear duct tape. Now it glides.

I’ll never buy an apple mouse ever again.

I like the keyboard though since it’s the only high quality membrane keyboard that’s not Logitech I could find.

I get the color coding, I don’t like it.

What successful or popular movie that many loved you just HATE? in c/[email protected]

I did not like Chernobyl one bit. Well while it was good at some points, the scientific inaccuracy was just too much to bear.

That little cut in the shoe? Yeah, it’s impossible to die from that.

Kind of agree with you. I liked it until endgame, but it was a downward slope afterwards

I always wanted to create a wizard, who war’s wizard robes, has a staff and such, even knows spells!

But at level 2 and agzerwards he goes full barbarian, yet never changes his outfit away from wizard.

Preferably two light swords, one in each hand - but only while combat! Outside of combat, he’s just a noble wizard. When someone asks if he really is a wizard, he uses his low level spells to convince the people.

Kind of like Dumbbelldore

Thanks Reddit. I'll continue to not provide any content since I shredded everything pre-enshitification. (sh.itjust.works)
 

This just makes me angry. You need to write comments and get likes before you’re able to make posts. Most of the posts in that community could pass as boomer-Facebook-posts from what I’ve seen. The quality definitely went more downhill than Tony Hawk‘s Downhill Jam.

But I’ll post my question here: what’s your pre-apocalypse game gems?

New to mastodon, never used Twitter, refuse to use Xitter. Any tips and who and what to follow? And who and what do you follow?

Edit: thank you all for your responses! I’ll definitely check out the accounts you suggested! Looking through hashtags I like and popular ones sounds like a great addition!

A Dock for Mac and Windows (self.apple_enthusiast)
 

The UDS033 from tobenone.com is is pretty amazing when using windows for work at home and a MacBook Air privately. Some annoyances exist, like having to plug the HDMI-HDMI and DP-HDMI cables from port 1 and 2 for Mac down to 4 and 4 for Windows whenever I switch devices. I got around that by getting a set of HDMI-VGA and DP-VGA cables. I encountered a problem where I could not transfer my 80 GB PS2 Dumps onto an external SSD, I got around that by plugging the SSD directly into the Mac. VMs and emulators via the external SSD work fine! It‘s a pretty solid addition to my workspace, can recommend!

I'll ask this here since idk where else (self.apple_enthusiast)
 

My company is very concerned about security, which means that even the Windows we use is so heavily modified it makes any Arch-user jealous. Nevertheless we have the possibility to work from home. I have a full Apple setup for myself, even the TobenOne UDS033 dock to use 2 external monitors with my MacBook Air M1 (works like a charm btw). But here is the problem: the laptop has no Bluetooth. No Bluetooth mouse, no Bluetooth keyboard, nothing. The mouse is no problem since I use my trusty wired gaming mouse from 2014. My problem is the keyboard. I have not found a single one that is primarily for Mac and also happens to work on Windows, yet works wired as well.

I have read that Apple‘s Magic Keyboard works wired on Windows, can anyone confirm this? The rest of the internet is not very helpful.

no receiver-mail adress on iOS but it is on MacOS (self.apple_enthusiast)
 

If I receive an email on my Mac, then the email address that received it is written out as "To:" So I can distinguish between Gmail and Outlook.

But the mail app on my phone only shows that it is for me "To: FinancesDrone" which is annoying. Is there a possibility to change that?

Updating Apple Watch without WiFi? (self.apple_enthusiast)
 

I have an unlimited 5G plan with 400 Mbit/s on my phone and have to use an external source to update my watch?

Hello!

I’m about to get an M1 MacBook. I’ve got the choice between a $€£ 650 M1 Air and a $€£ 750 M1 Pro. My research concluded: they’re the same but the Pro has a little bit more beef when it comes to exporting videos.

So far I’m thinking to get the Pro, because I might need 2 external monitors someday, but I make this post because I think that people here have been using the devices for longer than reviewers.

What’s your opinion to those devices?

Edit:

Okay, they’re about the same, so I’d‘ve gone for the MacBook Air M1. BUT: since I scoured the internet ever since I’ve found a MacBook Air M1 with 16 GB of RAM for 800. And Papa knows that this is more good.
