Oh nice!! Thank you so much!

That's quite close by, and a visit is in order! :)

Thank you! This is going to sound daft, but I had forgotten steam allows you to uncheck DLC like that! :) it's so rare that I'd opt-out (in fact this might be the only time I have needed to!) :) thank you again

I have a video of a news piece showing a penguin happily waddling around in a Japanese neighbourhood wearing a Pingu backpack. It is an important video, it makes the world happy for a few minutes. :)

That's impressive! :) You wouldn't happen to know anything about the Milton Keynes one would you? I've been searching and couldn't find any links, but would love to go and visit it! :)

Oh no! I'm so cosy on mint, but now I'm eyeing Fedora and it looks snazzy, and maybe cyberpunk is a fun prospect too! :)

How odd! I must admit with cyberpunk, I was reading ProtonDB and had a "that's one fine game... why doesn't mine look like that!" Simpsons moment. 😅

Nice! Consider me doubly motivated to give it another go this weekend :)

I am indeed! I tried popping in the skip launcher commands from a few people on ProtonDB, and it seems to be rather grumpy with me 😅 I've read it could be the Phantom Liberty DLC being DRM'd, but not sure :)

Aw, I can't get cyberpunk to run on my mint install - it gets the logos and stops responding.

Some people read about performance, sometimes I'm just motivated knowing someone on the internet did get a game running in the first instance! :)

I will say though, Baldurs Gate 3 works perfectly, as does anything else I throw at it! :)

I love them because of a sesame allergy! Worry free brioche for the me! :)

I didn't realise I had it unticked, and feel silly for thinking Lemmy didn't support them! Totally keeping it unticked, but thought it was funny :)

I have heard some wacky migraine treatment techniques, and thought if anyone is on here, it could be a potentially interesting light-hearted thing to discuss.

Reddit swore by McDonald's fries (salt intake?), but what prompted me to think to post this was my new DIY "heat treatment" for retinal migraines.

I like warm or cold things on the pain, and cooling strips etc are sold as migaine treatments. So one day I figured blasting my eye pain with a hair-dryer was worth a punt because why not?

Instantly pain free! I swear by it, it is temporary relief like I have never had before! The internet says heat possibly tricks pain receptors, I say dumb method works! I thought this was funny enough to share.

With this tale out the way, what are Lemmy's wacky migraine superstitions or unorthodox migraine strategies?

Edit: blasting one's face with a hair dryer is not medical advice! I am just a moron on the internet, and this is purely anecdotal
