TBH i feel like some social media would even profit of this.

Yellow is video, red and white are left and right audio

Sadly with much less extensions, i use it just to compile and flash my marlin 3D printer and every extension needed has to be set up manually, for some reason even then i can’t get it to work.

Holy, i never thought about it like that

I read Walter White, i’m going to sleep now.

That was clear when they launched their browser

It will take some performance, but it’s also creating noise which is a good thing.

What’s even wilder than companies wanting this are the people who do it.

Contend6248 ,

That must be it, all these companies are known to give not a single fuck about privacy.

This is like the discussion about how others were copying Apples corners, they are fucking round corners.

There is only so much you can design about an X, so no matter how they would design it, someone made that. You can find countless issues with Musk, but that’s just sad and desperate.

Ubisoft Can Delete Inactive Accounts, Making Users Lose Access to Their Games (gamerant.com)

In a response to a post from the AntiDRM Twitter account, Ubisoft Support has clarified that users who don’t sign in to their account can potentially lose access to Ubisoft games they’ve purchased. The initial post from AntiDRM featured a snippet of an e-mail sent to a user from Ubisoft notifying them that their account had...

Yes that, or skip the paying part.

I mean they save their bandwidth, space for personal data and computing tasks and you safe money.

Win-Win

Because they want to corner every price target.

You think the masses care about how long the devices are supported? This is a topic from back in the early days of Android.

Contend6248 ,

Greenwashing is the term for something like this.

Contend6248 ,

By supporting the very manufacture to blame for short support times? Qualcomm is the root of the problem.

They don’t provide the bloody drivers for newer Android versions.

Manufacturers can only provide security updates after 2 major updates.

Ok, than they are alright and green, very fair much phone

That’s something you’ll lose with age and some self confidence, take your time, everyone else is taking yours too.

True, but the communities are built around people not the platform. We are once again learning that no platform will be around forever, older people have seen it plenty of times already.

This ad is bad, but them being just masked as a normal post did grind my gears even more. Reading half way through the title until i figure that it’s just an ad is something i can’t accept.

Deleting my Reddit comments was a strange experience. (kbin.social)

It wasn't the fact that there was a limit to see 1000 comments but what they were. The vast majority of my 12 years on Reddit I spent talking about dungeon and dragons 5th edition (DnD 5e) which I started playing early in is lifestyle. It was my first role playing game and I got sucked into the Internet to learn more. Before my...

They are not restoring them, communities go public again making them appear in your profile. For some reason someone thought it was a good idea to hide them in your profile if the community is not accessible.

I deleted my comments for couple of weeks now, today there were only two left, looks like i’m about to finish.

I know that for sure because i export all my deleted comments and i can’t find the reappeared ones in my backup, so i in fact haven’t deleted them.

Contend6248 ,

Same posts too? I don’t know the backend and if the posts and comments get reindexed in the respective accounts, but i can imagine it happening like that

There needs to be a step by step migration guide

It was and still is hard - or at least tedious - for me as a software developer to find out how to use the fediverse and lemmy. I can’t imagine how annoying it must be for a normal user. The one thing I really liked about reddit, is that you can find a well written guide for everything, often pinned at the top of a specific...

If i had to guess, one single platform is something people new to federation can easily understand. What happens behind the scenes is nothing the average user needs to know or should even notice. Time will change that understanding, this is just the beginning and there should not be a rush because that will scare people away.

Contend6248 ,

It is nice to install much normally harder to install crap, but there are so little trusted devs on there, that i rather not install something than getting it from a untrusted source.

It is nice to play around, but i also switched from Windows to have a more secure platform

Contend6248 ,

Maybe don’t fiddle with your install non-stop then.

He makes Last Week Tonight which is a show with a big reach, Reddit-Mods are essentially pinging him.

He did respond on Twitter with a dump of sexy pictures of him to post.

The show is on pause because of the writers-strike at the moment, so it might take a while for this to be a topic.

I would imagine that can lead to legal troubles endorsing r/piracy willingly?

Accepting it is one thing, but forcing it to open is entirely different.

Contend6248 ,

One can only dream that these canceled 3rd party clients might join some day. Hopefully some will be opensource or they decide to support any other platform.

It would’ve been great if they just collectively change to something else.
