Shitposting at the speed of light. I have the power of God and anime on my side. … That should probably be a pop song or something.

I have a zip of flash games about 3tb. And I think that’s after it cut “offensive content”.

Are you executing the files you download?

You executed the file. Not the OS’ fault.

I’m in favour of that regulation solely due to how much it would piss off Apple.

Beyond that, anyone who engages these services gets what they fucking deserve. Governments should be required to only use open-source software and host their own servers, everyone else is free to make stupid decisions.

Age of Wushu needed less teleport slots.

Combos. I don’t like them when they’re intentional by the developer, they need to be something that you feel like you’ve discovered on your own. I hear Baba is You is pretty good about that.

I recently observed a game of MtG where a newish player was playing a scry deck, some premade or something, had a guy who would scry every time a creature dropped, and a guy who would place counters every time he scried. He’d edited the deck slightly, added a creature that spawned tokens every time it received counters. Managed to get them all out at once before realising what he’d done; straight up had to ask if tokens count as creatures dropping because he wasn’t sure if infinite combos were real. That’s a good feeling, because it’s something he did, not something that was given to him.

Contrast League or Overwatch or whatever where the devs have specific ideas about how characters should work and will aggressively destroy things outside of that. Or just modern Magic.

I have tried Skullgirls. I will not try it again.

Tag fighters are pretty good for this though, you’re right, and especially when you can choose the assist move.

Stop KOSA. Why the KOSA Bill is Dangerous and Should be Rejected (www.stopkosa.com)

KOSA is a bill that aims to protect children online but it would do so in harmful ways. First, it would pressure platforms to install content filters that would censor large amounts of content, including important suicide prevention and LGBTQ+ support resources. Content filters have a history of overblocking important...

What if they decide me using an “untrusted” OS means that I can’t access my bank?

This already happens! safetynet can suck a fat, rotten cock!

Still mad about this. http is fine too.

Because the tiny portion of apple consoomers are idiots.

Oh that’s nothing. Remember what happened to kfcc?

Time to Move on From PS5?

I’ve been having some thoughts lately that I would have believed crazy just a few years ago. I’m starting to think it might be time to move on from my PS5 and triple A gaming as a whole. I’ve had a PlayStation from the PS2 all the way to the latest generation of consoles. I remember fondly time spent roaming the lands of...

This is exactly the sort of stuff we predicted way back then; this is why I’ve never touched this stuff.

Isles of Etherion? It’s probably even more demanding though.

It will never die.

It started putting out a newsletter a couple years ago or so.

zergling_man ,

They can come visit me if they have something to say. Or email. I’ve invited them to XMPP and fedi many times and they’ve ignored it. I interpret this as them not wanting to talk to me.

Bluesky allowed people to include the n-word in their usernames | Engadget (www.engadget.com)

Bluesky, a decentralized social network, allowed users to register usernames containing the n-word. When reports surfaced about a user with the racial slur in their name, Bluesky took 40 minutes to remove the account but did not publicly apologize. A LinkedIn post criticized Bluesky for failing to filter offensive terms from the...

Surprising approximately nobody, it’s trash.

They sound fun. I guess I’ll put an alt there.

Instead of "casual" or "ranked" they should just have "play to win" or "play for fun."

Because it doesn’t seem to matter currently if you play ranked games or casual games, the general experience tends to be the same. But one has numbers and things to go with it. You still get people playing to win in casual games and you get people dicking around having fun in ranked games, and the ranks don’t necessarily...

But why

zergling_man ,

Sounds like a bad browser.

zergling_man ,

Good browsers don’t let random unauthenticated content to do whatever it wants on neither the local machine or the network.

So, lynx?

zero-trust setups. private networks

Sounds like a bad browser.

Sounds dystopian. I still won’t feel bad for normies.

Cancel Amazon Prime [2021] (archive.ph)

Amazon Prime is a remarkable success but also dystopian. It has made convenience and speed the norm, habituating consumers to buy more products. Prime’s flywheel effect - where more customers lead to more data and scale which attracts more customers - has fueled Amazon’s dominance. Prime subscribers spend twice as much and...

You will live in the pod and eat the bugs because you lack the mental capacity to resist it.

So, firefox achieving feature parity with lynx? :^)

Are all these thousands of lemmy servers useless?

Correct me if I’m wrong. I read ActivityPub standards and dug a little into lemmy sources to understand how federation works. And I’m a bit disappointed. Every server just has a cache and the ability to fetch something from another known server. So if you start your own instance, there is no profit for the whole network...

It only takes one user for an instance to not be empty. Every bit of decentralisation adds resilience to the whole. But more decentralisation adds more resilience, so let’s try to spread out the communities and users.
