Well, to some people the biggest achievement is getting out of the bed

Haven’t heard of pirated games with steam achievement support, like how would this even work, you either have the game in your steam account or not

Sadly because it works, mobile gaming is bigger money-wise than PC and consoles combined, all because people are susceptible to short term dopamine hit your can buy any time, it’s a part of what we call enshittification, making the product less user friendly and make more money, shareholders are happy, your don’t have to

Should I join "free speech" alternatives?

Hello! I’ve been searching for a reddit alternative, and yes, I’ve picked Lemmy and Raddle, but here’s the thing. My morbid curiosity is perked up, and a part of me wants to join the “free speech” alternatives, like Saidit, Poal, etc. What’s wrong with me that I want to join toxic places? I mean, yes I’ll find a...

Say something wrong about co**unism or any s country practicing it here and you’ll see how free speech works, that’s your only warning, you won’t get an official one, that’s not how moderation works here, no matter what their COC says

of course, i posted this as a joke (like “thanks Obama”), i really doubt his review had anything to do with the company going bankrupt, but seeing the downvotes i’ll really think twice before commenting

@maniel@lemmy.ml avatar

yeah, but it’s dialogue, when what you’re saying is met with disagreement you stop talking, though in many cases it’s misunderstanding, people not getting the joke or what I want to convey (not native English speaker here BTW), generally i find people here more ideology-driven and rarely getting the jokes, than on reddit, it was more loose back there (mandatory fuck spez obvs)

Another security feature added is the blocking of downloading files from URLs that are on lists of potentially dangerous content.

Yeah, I’m not sure blocking HTTP downloads by default is a good idea, I mean many offices probably have some internal legacy HTTP only sites that nobody dares to touch, that are perfectly safe being HTTP (if you have hackers inside your network a simple intranet site spoofing is your least problem), and disabling this security option might have a lot of wider repercussions

maniel ,
@maniel@lemmy.ml avatar

It’s not just about that, people will be disabling the feature that is potentially beneficial to their security, disabling http downloads from http sites is just an extension of blocking http downloads from https sites

People say reptiles are tastier than chicken, the thing is chicken is mass produced at an industrial level, most of the reptiles are wild caught, maybe we should compare them to wild chicken or game bird, instead of store bought chicken, also it would differ wildly depending on type of dinosaur, it was a very diverse group

I feel proud of myself to recognize that this iconic dude is not at a 'computer', rather, a [dumb] terminal! ]Or...?] (knowyourmeme.com)

Terminals are NOT computers. At least dumb terminals are not. Smart terminals do have logic circuit, but dumb terminals work mostly like televisions, except they have protocols (like when you send a SIGINT signal with CTRL+C, and you are a 80s academic working on his terminal at UC Berkeley, then your UNIX implementation —...

Imagine the sound it made in its days, all those FDD and HDDs, I remember when I got my first PC in 1999, I found the FDD was surprisingly loud, like a dot printer, then my first CD burner, it was as loud as a hair dryer on turbo, fast forward to a few years ago, when I changed my case fans to Arctic P12s and had to double-check if my PC is on because I couldn’t hear it, and now it’s even more quiet because my new PSU funny spin it’s fan in idle, unfortunately my GPU is loud AF when playing games, thinking about repasting it

BTW what is this site anyway? Does anyone have problems scrolling or is it just me?

I doubt it’ll be a completely original project from the ground up, like Google’s Tensor it’s based on Samsung’s Exynos

My father won an equivalent of $40 000 here in Poland which was a hefty sum in 1999, it opened some perspectives for us, we renovated our communist-built flat (bye bye wooden windows), my sister got married with her boyfriend, parents bought them a flat (for silly money, inflation is a removed), paid for a moderate wedding, I got a PC (shitty for that times) and my father bought a car, he had a minor cardiac arrest a year later, he couldn’t keep his job with his condition, so he became jobless, money was spent, my education fund was spent, fast forward few years later long story short I got married, had to pay for my wedding by myself, living at my wife’s parents

You don’t need AI to do that, seriously, such a buzzword where a relatively simple algorithm would suffice, don’t tell me it’s harder than double pendulums or those ball bouncing contraptions tech students make since a decade or more

ssds getting not enough power? i’d test it with different PSU, i had a problem with my ssd failing and changing PSU worked, apparently 3.3VDC rail is routed on the motherboards without any conversion straight to m.2/pcie devices

Yeah, an oscilloscope would be handy in hunting spikes, it’s a bit harder with a standard multimeter, you sure you don’t know anyone with a spare PSU to borrow?

I’d say wait for US presidential elections, if Trump wins, Ukraine is lost, if he further destabilizes the NATO Europe is lost too

Do you all have any tips on activities to do yourself, instead of consuming content all the time?

I’m pretty sick of my content addiction, like watching youtube or netflix all the time. I would rather be spending my time otherwise so figured fun things are the best to start. Do you have tips for fun things to do? Or how I could search for them?...

I like cooking, I get a lot from it, like the feeling of fulfillment etc

maniel ,
@maniel@lemmy.ml avatar

Here in Poland dining out is more expensive than cooking, many people here have a hard time wrapping their head around the idea that cooking for yourself or your family isn’t considered the default in some countries, but the myth it’s “healthier” transplanted itself here perfectly through the pop culture, to the point according to my wife i can’t make burgers for dinner or wrap a salad in a tortilla because it’s unhealthy fast-food, no such problem with pizza though

well, if you eat that shit the ads and tracking on their site should be the least of your worries

Just look at Facebook, yesterday I was spammed by sites with AI fakes of Scarlett Johansson, reported them all, this morning Billie Eilish with biiiig boobs in suggestive positions, reported, now I’m being bombarded by Alexandra Daddario obvious fakes, it’s getting ridiculous

maniel ,
@maniel@lemmy.ml avatar

I don’t mind ads and suggested pages that are vaguely related to my interests, but aside from obscene manga and obvious fake baits for horny men (seriously I watch my porn in private tabs), I’m not interested in groups as exotic as “car spotting Philippines” or “my dream mud house in Congo”

Excluding really good software such as f-droid just because it somehow mentions cryptocurrency? Seems ridiculous

maniel ,
@maniel@lemmy.ml avatar

yeah, i’d understanding rejecting software promoting crypto, like brave, but rejecting apps for accepting crypto donations is kinda kinky fetish in my book, also if you cancel f-droid just because they allow crypto related apps you should ban whole distros for hosting crypto packages in heir repositories

it’s not only clouds, everyone uses open source and like whole secure WWW etc. is using openssl, every site uses some kind of open source js library, should they all go proprietary because they don’t pay?

I’ve been seeing this surfacing a lot lately, two curious things:

  • Fox - right wing, republican and conservative media known for being against global warming, renewables and electric cars, is the only source of this, all other media link back to Fox
  • Only happening in Chicago, people in other regions with the similar conditions report no such issues

#¯⁠\⁠⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠⁠/⁠¯

maniel ,
@maniel@lemmy.ml avatar

I’m not saying an event like that didn’t happen, but as far as we know a single event is blown out of proportions by Fox, it’s reported out of the context all over the world, giving people the feeling it’s a common occurrence

Yeah, I was a Linux user at the time, I remember 2.4 to 2.6 kennel transition, it was a breath of fresh air, filesystem wars, some people liked xfs, others jfs, normies used ext3, reiser4 with all the shit they promised, like accessing mp3 on the filesystem level etc was mind-blowing, them he killed his wife…

Lol, I remember -ac kernel, it has a modified I/O scheduler or something, also I remember using some guys kennel, he went silent one time, after some weeks the guy’s wife wrote on the forum he fell off the ladder, became a vegetable and soon died…
