I was going to say Digital Illusions but for Motorhead, the racing game. The OST for that game has been in my music rotation for decades and it's still in my top 3 of all time.

You have a lot of recommendations already but I'd like to add two of my favorites: Courtney Barnett and Alvvays!

I don't qualify as a "younger user of Lemmy" but I love games like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. I suck at all of them, except for Killer Instinct but I'm only kinda good with Combo.

Turning it on by default would be a massive disservice to the work that domain registries and registrars have been doing to allow Unicode to be used in domain names. In Spanish speaking countries the ñ character is pretty ubiquitous for example, and the workaround of replacing it with an n creates many problems like misdirected web traffic and typos in email addresses. Unicode in URLs and domain names is a feature, abuse should be attacked by means other than disabling it.

The local and remote port options sound exactly like something I've needed multiple times in the past, I'll keep this saved for when it happens again. Great stuff!

Is VR really so ubiquitous to warrant these concerns? In my opinion most of the warnings about how this technology encourages "escaping reality" apply more to things that have had an established place in society for decades, namely phones, social media and online gaming. I have two kids and a VR headset is the least of my concerns, but they could be sucked in to the non-reality of a personal phone in two seconds if I allow it.

This one is probably very specific but Utada Hikaru has one that I love, where towards the end of certain songs she sings the chrous, and then keeps the same melody going multiple times but with different lyrics. It's like she extends the feeling and rhythm of the chorus but keeps it interesting by using different lyrics the whole time. Some examples: Goodbye Happiness, Making Love, About Me, LETTERS, Sakura DROPS.

I set this up on my instance about a week ago and it works perfectly, thank you!

My contribution is a very practical tip for parents: When you need to carry a kid sitting on your shoulders, first pick them up and have them sit with both legs on your right shoulder. Then, with your right hand, grab the kid's right leg, and with your left hand grab the kid's left leg and lift it over your head to place it in your left shoulder. Mirror the maneuver if necessary. The result is a quick lift-sit-and-switch technique, and fewers kicks to the head.

In Chile, not really an insult but rather a lament over how dumb people are sometimes:

"Si los weones volaran, pasaría nublado" (If dumb people could fly it would always be cloudy)

Malvavisco in Spanish as others mentioned, but in Chile we also call some varieties "guagüitas" (little babies) for some reason

Ever since I have been married with kids

My days are too short for me to give a shit
