It probably doesn't though. Obviously it's closed source making it harder to tell what's actually happening, but there's nothing stopping security analysts from looking at network usage and such. I would imagine that Google doesn't install a keylogger on every Android phone, not out of the goodness of their hearts, but because they don't want the bad publicity and lawsuits when it would inevitably be discovered.

“If you’re a politician or a business owner, you are accountable to your constituents. So a politician needs to be elected, and a business owner can be fired by its shareholders,” he said.

“And I think, on Reddit, the analogy is closer to the landed gentry: The people who get there first get to stay there and pass it down to their descendants, and that is not democratic.”

Pro-business people always have the craziest ideas of democracy. Does he really believe that shareholders making decisions is, in any way, democratic??

Reference to the video game Baba is You. I haven't played it but it but you essentially reprogram aspects of the game by moving blocks around. From what I understand, to win you must move whatever block "is you" to whatever block "is win" the player made itself "is win" leaving nothing for "is you" heanse being "youless" a pun on this meme normally saying clueless.

An Unreal Engine app that just renders a Chromium page as far as I understand. Essentially using their own version of Electron made using the guts of one of the most complex game engines. Truly an unholy abomination.

Going to Lemmy to complain about "left-wing extremists" is kind of funny especially since the instance's only real political stance is promoting gay/trans rights.

It's a bit annoying that the Reddit mods are reopening the community after moving a bunch of people elsewhere. Now we have a Raddle, Lemmy, Discord, and Reddit 196 each with different moderators.

Considering the Reddit has almost 50 times the number of subscribers as the Lemmy, I would assume that will be the most popular one, though we will probably have a higher percent of active users.

I would hope that eventually the different mods of the different 196s could do some form of cross-site collaboration to have unity between the 196s but I don't know what that could entail. Maybe the next 196 r/place could shout out the Lemmy community for example.

Also possible (and likely) that the people making the remake didn't get the joke.

One of Discord's targets is web, and I don't think there is another good UI toolkit that could maintain that target with easy feature parity. Some UI toolkits like Godot (which is a game engine) are capable of targeting web using a canvas element, but that's probably not going to be as performant or as native feeling as a standard website. They could also use a separate code base, but then there would be large feature parity issues. They could also drop the web target, but that might make it harder for users who don't have permission to install software or use Chrome OS.

I feel like Discord is one of the examples where Electron makes sense. If only they allowed third party apps so desktop users who don't care about having every feature can have a better experience.

Flee means to escape, flea is a parasitic insect

I am a student in Florida. I'm allowed to say more.

I've honestly like my Chromecast as I can watch legally obtained media and pirated media on the same box. VLC also has native support for streaming to Chromecast. I remember it was a pain to setup for some reason, but I haven't had many issues since then.

You can also use the Firefox app to create PWAs with UBlock Origin support

Thanks for not having different rules for men and women

Too late; you already did

Definitely my most used app as well. The official app isn't too different, but for some reason, it just doesn't feel the same.

Also it is really funny to put a Lemmy advertisement on Reddit's thing

Fuck, I spelled rights wrong

it's kind of frustrating, I was hoping that the old mods would just pick one site (even if it wasn't the best) and endorse it so that things wouldn't split, now we have the three Lemmies, the Raddle, the Tumblr tag, r/19684, the Discord, and there was one other that I forgot the name of that started with an S.

Would it be possible to port to Firefox for Android?

Blahaj Zone will just ignore it as far as I know

Gextacular

I love Simon Tatham's puzzles

Ok, but I want to think about that though.

Sad to see Spronkus not on r/Place this time, it would be cool if we could get a Lemmy/KBin Place working by April.

I feel like for HL2, the vibe was more important than the gameplay for those segments. While you aren't technically doing anything too interesting, I still felt cool driving around.

TI-NSpire can play GBA games

This one, Lemmy.ml which may be down, and Lemmy.world's 195. I'm not counting the tanky one.

@ShittyKopper appears to be working on something called @lemmod publicly on a community on this instance I don't know how much progress they made.

looking into this

I love Gooseworx, go watch their YouTube videos!!!
