I dunno... this has rings of Libra (now Diem?) to it. Given engagement on Meta is down, it feels more like a playbook to tap into the zeitgeist and capture the shift in traffic.

Whoa whoa whoa - let's not get ahead of ourselves; what is America if not the exploitation of the critical working class?

That's more LA than the full state. Living in SF, for example, doesn't require a car (though has its own share of problems, like all places)

Air conditioning and swimming pools

ProtonDB is a better measurement for what will run correctly whereas "playable" vs "verified" has more to do with more tangential issues such as the text is the readable on a tiny screen or it doesn't use the mouse, etc.

In my mind ProtonDB is more reliable than playable but to your point, the number of times there's meaningful disagreement between the two at this stage is so low given almost everything is running wrt my library to render it a moot point

What a treat. As a child of those times, Doom has a special place in my heart and is a blast to replay, especially with a modern engine.

It's the poor people who will suffer. Clearly they aren't human enough to spend money on, amiright? /s

I buy almost all my roasting stuff, including beans, from Sweet Maria's

My beef with them is it gives a comment an artificially high "vote" which tends to dominate the discussion (people feel it's a higher quality comment point), even if the content on its own doesn't merit it.

You know, I'm not entirely sure that holds. There was always a great sense of open-mindednes on Reddit; the big problem was populist binary opinions emerging as user density increased.

While a community is small, individuality can find a greater platform for expression. I have yet to see a larger community able to preserve those ideals, especially in the presence of reductive social proof voting up/down. The real test for Lemmy isn't today but a few years from now when communities have a greater saturation of users and whether thought diversity will survive a nascent hive mind which these platforms always seem to evolve into.

Roasting coffee is a great hobby and has an incredibly fast ROI if you start with the popcorn maker method. I get best in class beans for less than half their roasted cost.
