I want to know how this turned out

this sounds reasonable

Isn’t the whole point of Arch that you get to configure it yourself? /g

TikTok has controls now actually.

There’s a scrollbar, playback speed, PIP mode, zoom, captions, and you can remove the Like, Comment, Share buttons as well (they call it Clear Display mode). Videos with different aspect ratios can also be put in landscape mode for better viewing.

I wonder if this is actually real. I could see it.

LEAD, MORE LIKE GOATed!!! BOOMER4LYF

SWAG!

gon OP ,

oh :C ok…

gon OP ,

That doesn’t sound good indeed…

Maybe this time it’ll be better? IDK about Destiny 2 for example. I’ve heard good things though (?)

As long as it’s good mechanically, I think I’ll want to give it a try at least.

gon OP ,

Huh, well that’s disheartening… Is there any extraction shooter you recommend?

I mean, if there’s so many, I’d think they have something that distinguishes them besides just aesthetics, right? I hope Marathon can bring some fresh air to the genre. IDK

Using ad-blockers is actually better for the environment too.

gon ,

If it’s worth doing at all, it’s worth doing a little bit.

I believe you’re referring to iPhone’s clean energy charging feature. Here’s my question: if you can use clean energy, why wouldn’t you? It might make very little difference to the environment, but a little difference is still a difference.

Still, using ad-blockers is really not like that iPhone feature:

  1. That feature relies on the grid itself, meaning it’s useless for a lot of people that have basically no clean energy where they live, while ad-blockers can be useful to anyone using the internet.
  2. It may be to the user’s detriment, while ad-blockers improve user experience.
  3. It’s device dependent, whereas ad-blockers are available to virtually everyone, not just iPhone users.
  4. Ad-blockers can be combined with clean energy charging.

The impact ad-blockers can have on the environment is similar to iPhone’s clean energy charging in the same way a healthy diet is similar to eating a carrot. Yes, on the surface level they do just reduce your consumption of fossil fuel-generated energy, but ad-blockers reduce your energy consumption overall, not just trade it for green energy (that still requires tons of fossil fuels to be burned).

Much love,

IS THAT THE TROLLEY PROBLEM?!

Read above in the same voice as “IS THAT THE GRIM REAPER?!”.

the difficulties you faced in the fediverse

Some networks are a bit confusing, like Misskey and Firefish. On Lemmy sometimes things don’t federate as you’d expect them, like Mastodon <-> Lemmy. Even between different Lemmy instances sometimes things don’t federate, so people on different instances will see different things on the same post. Not hard to get used to, overall, but it’s there.

challenges faced by the fediverse in attracting users and retain them

I’m not really inside that part of the fediverse. I enjoy Lemmy, and check Mastodon ocasionally. I guess an issue is that the people I follow on centralized social media aren’t really on fediverse. Also, I think videos are a big issue. Video-based content is huge on the internet, but the fediverse video-sharing platforms just aren’t very good.

your experience in fediverse

I’ve been having tons of fun. Lots of fun conversations and interesting topics to explore. Definitely positive.

feedbacks about fediverse

As I mentioned before I think video-based stuff really needs to improve. Some connectivity/federation issues also need to be ironed out. I also think chatroom style social-media would be great on the fediverse. Lemmy does that a little bit with the Chat comments, but it’s not the same thing. I’m thinking something like Discord. Matrix can be federated I think, it does run AP, but it’s not in practice AFAIK.

your suggestions to improve fediverse

Basically what I said above: focus on video content more and effective chatrooms.

setbacks of fediverse and anything related to fediverse.

Not sure what this means? Setbacks? I guess dumbasses talking shit online is an issue? A lot of people hear “fediverse, activitypub, blah blah blah” and decide it’s “not for them”. I guess it’s hard to make people see the value of decentralized social media. And it’s definitely difficult to make people let go of their virtual lives on other social media for something that’s still a bit buggy and not used by a lot of people. Well there’s a lot of people on the fediverse but a lot (A LOT) less than on other social media platforms.

Never seen this meme format before, did you make this?

I’m so confused by the poop knife. What in the hell is a poop knife?! WHY?!

My family is NORMAL and we have NORMAL things in the house!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS A POOP KNIFE OR THE FUCKING FROG TONGS YOU PEOPLE ARE INSANE

gon ,

2 people’ve mentioned that to me now… I’ll definitely check out the sequels! :D

gon ,

The Scorsese movie would be The Departed, right? I might give it a watch, just to see how it compares. Wikipedia says the script for Infernal Affairs was inspired by Face/Off, by John Woo. It’s funny how that goes, American film inspires HK film which inspires another American film.

The double infiltration scenario was really cool indeed! One-dimensional bad-guys can be rather predictable and boring, it really is great when the antagonist has some good-guy traits. :D
