I have done in the past but it’s not a common thing. It really something I did when I was a kid. In the last 10 years I’ve actually done a bit of sleepwalking. It only really happens when I’m drunk but it’s always been quite fun as I usually just hear the stories in the morning. I’m not just wandering around aimlessly, there’s usually some kind of logic going on. You know when you’re in a dream and you have some kind of weird backstory to what you’re doing but you don’t know how you know it, you just know. I’m kind of walking around slightly conscious of where I am but with some weird backstory. Most of the time I just think it’s daytime and I’m doing something, like going to work.

Everyone keeps complaining about smart TVs. I’ve got a Samsung and it gives me no bother. The only thing I don’t like is that when you turn it on, if you don’t do anything, it automatically switches to the last thing you were watching which often means my daughter might end up putting on some horror channel or whatever we were watching the night before after she went to bed.

Feddit.uk is good if you’re in the UK. Then you can switch to Local and see lots of UK stuff.
twinnie@feddit.ukto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's up with employee-owned companies/co-ops? How does it compare to a strong union?11·6 months agoI don’t know much about them but I like the idea and I’d be more inclined to use one.
We have the Co-op in the UK and it’s a household name. They run a bank and local shops but I think do more than that. They’re not employee owned though, they’re consumer owned. I’m not entirely sure what that means but I remember you used to be able to walk into a shop, pay a small amount of money, and then join. Each year you’d get a small amount of money depending on how much profit they’d made.
Can’t really add anything regarding linking the Steam libraries as I just removed all my games from Windows and downloaded them in Linux instead. I used ProtonUp for managing my Proton versions and I started up Cyberpunk using ProtonGE 13, and it runs the same as it does in Windows. I’ve got the GOG version and I’m using Heroic Launcher but I don’t think that’ll make a difference.
Have you got anything to work using that linked library? Maybe try just installing it locally.
twinnie@feddit.ukto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there a generation of gaming you're just not nostalgic for?51·8 months agoAnything pre-NES era and PlayStation. I had a ZX Spectrum, which was a British console that was around in the 80s. It had lots of fun games which were plentiful and cheap, they’d only be a couple of quid each. But most of them were just really basic versions of what we have now and I have no intention of getting my old machine out to play them.
I’m not nostalgic for the PlayStation because I always felt like the only audiences it catered for were the Japanese and people who liked all that money-grabbing type of stuff, like FIFA. Neither of those were for me.
twinnie@feddit.ukto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there an age where you decide to just 'let it go'?162·8 months agoWell most people get a bit like this after they marry. Are you talking about giving up on finding romance? You can still do it when you’re older but everyone’s gonna be divorced with a kid.
You shouldn’t ever really give up on your health, as you get older you’re gonna need it more and more.
I don’t think I’ve ever had a kid come to the door without a costume, I’m not sure I’d even notice. But yeah, who knows why they haven’t got a costume, so I’d probably give them some.
We need this too. When we have a somewhat long drive I usually do all the driving because my wife hates it but she’ll sit there telling our kid she (our daughter) can’t watch the iPad while she (my wife) plays on her phone.
You know you can view your history on YouTube don’t you?
twinnie@feddit.ukto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are some of the rules about the Internet that were taught to you but are now completely ignored?9·9 months agoNothing that happens on the internet matters.
twinnie@feddit.ukto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•When we finally get to a 4 day work week, will you be happy to see Friday go, or Monday?28·9 months agoI used to work a compressed week and started taking Monday but eventually it moved to Friday. When I took Monday off I felt like I had to pay for it with the next four days, when I took Friday it was like I was being rewarded with an early weekend.
If Lemmy ever really took off things would get harder. There’s quite a few subs but people barely notice.
I use it out of laziness. Despite all the shit they still have great customer service. About a year ago I ordered a £150 multi-tool and they accidentally sent me a £200 reciprocating saw. Due to a complicated living situation at the time it would have taken me about 6 months to send the wrong tool back so they just said I could keep it and refunded me so I could buy the other tool again.
The other thing I like is that I’ll just see a price and buy it easily. I’ve often shopped around and found something cheaper but then the whole purchasing process is terrible. They add on a bunch of extra costs, then make me create an account, then add on more costs. By the end I could’ve paid less and got it quicker from Amazon. Not always the case but it happens often enough that I will just go to Amazon half the time.
But I guess the main reason is that I hate being forced to create accounts and so many shops require that for no good reason.
twinnie@feddit.ukto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•why do pharmacies have these signs with whacky animations?10·1 year agoLoads in Morocco as well, they have loads of pharmacies due to all the French influence.
Honestly, off the top of my head I often like the people who come to England but as far as the country itself I don’t really think about it much. First thoughts are that it’s a massive country that’s heavily polluted and kinda obsessed with making money without much care for how they do it, such as how much of the world is making sacrifices to stop buying gas from Russia but India’s just undermining their good intentions for profit. I think if Pakistan invaded they’d expect the whole world to rally around them.
I love summer. I love wearing shorts and t-shirts, swimming in the sea, being outside, and opening the doors like the garden is just another room in my house.
The house I’m renting and the house I own are both around 1930, which is considered modern in the UK. The house I grew up in is about 1800.
