Duck You! Why am I called N00dle? It was the nickname a friend gave me. Why is my profile a duck? Cause it's so freaking cute!

I don't see Google raising that storage limit anytime soon. They've spent the past 2 years years trying to get rid of storage requirements on their end. They combined drive, email, and photo storage in the same storage limit. They're about to start trimming inactive Google accounts. The plan here is to push people into the higher 1TB plan which might be more profitable for them. I'm amazed the price for the plans have held steady. I'd expect a price increase from either Google or OneDrive.

This seems like a bad plan. While Fire OS has always been an outdated mess of AOSP, it still supports large pool of apps with sideloading. This is also probably expensive to build and they continue losing large amounts with their Alexa stuff. I wish for a third option besides just Android and IOS ,but I'm not holding my breath for this being it.

no living creatures to cause it to rot

Soon termites will evolve for space environment. On a serious note this does seem cool. The amount of satellites going to burn like disposable starlink ones will be an issue. This prototype is small, but this would be good for cubesats.

My hatred of WB goes back to when the purposely released a completely broken Arkham Knight game on PC. It has only grown more recently, I really wanted to watch that Acme vs Coyote movie. I hope to see a leak one day maybe.

Why are they complaining for? They get a generous $115 payout.

Yeah the LLC structure always seemed weird to people. After what happened to Bowser serving prison sentence and having his future earnings garnished for the rest of his life, this might have been the smart play. Yuzu group will never be able to pay the 2 mil. Company goes under and owners walk away from this escaping real harm.

I kind of enjoyed the first 5 minutes or so of the episode. Then it just got bad. I've been watching the season hoping the quality might improve and it seems to keep declining. I'm still watching and complaining about, but we're more than half way through the season and have yet to watch a "great" episode.

Feels like such a reach. I have no love for Amazon but what are they supposed to do here? Ask you at check out "Are you trying to commit suicide with these items?" Typing is most keywords for suicide and Google pops up with suicide prevention info on top screen already. People who want to do something will find a way.

Am I missing something? Hasn't this been known for years now? I think they previously commented on this before.

The whole Voodoo thing just fell completely flat to me.

Yeah I found that annoying. Leela being drunk and saying 'I must have been drunk'.

Lol install statistics shot up when initial news broke last week.

I've been using fakespot for a few months now and it seems hit or miss a lot of times. I'm hoping that Mozilla has been making changes to improve the implementation of how it checks reviews.

Another one bites the dust (maybe literally here). Next guy up for promotion should be nervous.

Wonder if this has to do with Piracy instance being listed as the largest lemmy community a few days back. Guess it might attract the wrong kind of attention.

Her name is Philomena Cunk

The tried and true Russia strategy. China learning well from neighbor.

Is there a way to find out which instance is defederated from which or a common list. I would not know about beeshaw defederating if not mentioned here.

Yeah, 1 million would be about the right size for a better active community. 500k would probably do wonders too.

That was a nice twist and I sort of enjoyed the omicronians "omicron" mutation.

That convenience fee is damn annoying. I usually just try to get the tickets in person.

1/ A framed document apparently photographed in Yevgeny Prigozhin's house by Russian security force searchers sets out what appears to be the Wagner Group's founding 'constitution'. It's signed by Prigozhin (who's referred to as the 'Director') and Dmitry Utkin, Wagner's founder (the 'Commander').

"Putin is said to be completely shocked by how fast Wagner Group moved through Russia. For now, he is just trying to secure his position. He does not want to be seen negotiating over his defense minister, but the official says the U.S. believes concessions were made over Sergei Shoigu's future as well as others." -abcnews

Wonder if Prigozhin gets the big MOD seat for himself

I was excited when voice assistants first came out. Siri, cortana, google assistant. More than 10 years later and the technology just completely sucks. Even the simplest thing of trying to set a quick reminder on my phone is just quicker by doing it manually.

Was so excited to see fighting in Moscow

Norway once again being a resource rich country.

That's what the 7 TRILLION dollars they are seeking are for.

I don't like bender. Especially in the later seasons.

NATO skirts final call on Ukraine membership, leaving unity-testing fight for later

Yeah the megathread being so old is an issue. I meant a megathread being daily would make sense.

Russian construction firms are reportedly being told to send their workers to fight in Ukraine or face losing lucrative contracts from the city of Moscow.

This sucks. For awhile prices were so great for consumers. Finally thought prices would settle low. I'm already seeing a 50% increase in some products. Some cheap team group 128gb SSD could be had for like $12 last year. I tried to look at prices a few days back and it was about $20 and rising.

From article looks like they don't want to settle at prices before plummet, but at recent peak prices. Shit companies raising cutting output to inflate prices. Car companies are going to be next to follow. They've had to cut prices to sell recently. Once that settles ....

Lukashenko shares some more details about the day of Prigozhin's mutiny.

He reveals there were no defense lines in Russia up until 200 km from Moscow (some regions are more equal than others?) and carefully chooses words to present Putin as a strong leader, while pointing out it was Lukashenko who did all the negotiating.

I'm saddened how this event came to a quick end. Although left wondering what the hell is really going on in Russia. This is basically a wait and see what happens in the next chapter of this story.

The episode was okay. I think was a good start to the new season.
