I have no idea who Hexbear is, but it's well documented how th IMF and World Bank work to endebt developing countries to the US's corporate rule and then steal all their resources... Are we... Not allowed to talk about that here?

Is this an ad for something or just trying to spread general fear and panic?

And brand C is called Nestle

VSCode is open source though? Although I guess maybe not the plugins?

How does it even work though? I haven't seen any Mastodon or other fediverse posts on Lemmy. What sub would the Threads posts appear in?

I'm flabbergasted we're getting no metroidvania love in here so I'll list my two favorites: Hollow Knight and Blasphemous. Both with sequels coming out this year which I'm so excited about!

And if you can save it to Files, only like two apps can open it and it's random which ones

Ironically, the accident that caused them to decide Cruise is unsafe was started by a human driver hit-and-run. So the humans are still more unsafe, but they are punishing the robots for it

Does it have a feature where you can feed fake GPS locations and contacts to apps that require those permissions to work? Loved that in some old Android ROMS

You're not supposed to remember your dreams. When you remember your dreams it's when you were woken unexpectedly, or when you consciously or unconsciously fled the dream before returning it to the Dreammaster.

We only borrow our dreams from him every night, but when we leave a dream prematurely we are stealing that dream - bringing it into our reality and hiding it away in our memories.

However precious or horrid your stolen dreams may be, remember that the Dreammaster will claim them back from you. He always does, in the end.

$400 Wifi⁶ mesh router vs one $10 wirey boi

What do you like better about it over Signal or Whatsapp?

Heck I would settle for just seeing a post from a person once I my feed, instead of seeing the last reply, then other posts, then the second-to-last reply, then after a lot more scrolling finally seeing the original post.

The problem with chronological feeds is that prolific posters in your timezone just take it over and you never see stuff from people in other timezones or infrequent posters.

Then you're in the wrong industry...

Nah that's more of a spoiler vote. You need one large competitor to Chrime, not a bunch of small ones that can get wiped out

I guess they have a pitchfork shortage or something

My Roku stick doesn't seem to have ads. But I recently switched to a Google Chromecast TV and like it the most. Better interface and more features than Roku (e.g. Bluetooth). The one thing that's worse is the remote.

I got it bundled with my YouTube Music subscription. Definitely worth it, especially considering you'd pay the same amount for Spotify and not get any videos

It's right there in the name: PHP

Seriously though maintaining a PHP server is a security nightmare and you have to be constantly updating if you don't want to be hacked. Just not worth it when there's better options out there

They're finding microplastics everywhere now. Even like inside apples and stuff: the plastic somehow travels up the tree into the fruit

Yep. The WHO just declared aspartame (diet Coke sweetener) as a carcinogen.

This comment is just an extreme lack of understanding of millionaires

I like that idea. A twist on it would be to divide the votes on a post by the total vote count or user count for that instance, so each instance has the same proportional say as any other. e.g. if a server with 1000 people gives 1000 upvotes, those count the same as a server with 10 people giving 10 votes.

I've never played Bloodborne, but your description reminds me of a game I just played: Blasphemous. The art direction and story is sooooo cool and gory and medieval. It's a metroid-style platformer, and the voice acting and script is really good. The second one is coming out in the fall and I am so stoked to get it

What's the offical Android app for Lemmy? I've only tried the web app on Lemmy.world which has a pretty awful UI.

How did they submit changes to only one file? Did they not write a test for it? Sounds like a dodgy patch if it doesn't have a test

Yep. I refuse to update my OS because I'm still hanging on to my non-cloud version of Lightroom 5. No way I'd pay Adobe for like the 5 times I use it per year

Interesting... what do you like better about Evolution compared to Thunderbird? I've never tried Evolution but am curious if it's worth the upgrade to Win 11 to switch

What are drools rules? All the pages I'm reading are very high level "bueiness rules" what does that even mean?

A lot of servers prefer tipping culture. I have friends who can make $100-200 an hour on good nights at fancy restaurants and bars.

He had a good platform too; a true leftist planning for the future of AI, UBI, etc. She just straight out refused to debate him. Then she ran a smear PR campaign on him just to be sure

Does it have a good panorama sticker or HDR merger? Those are the tools I absolutely need from Lightroom

Nah I've come to appreciate tipping after spending time in the UK where they don't tip. Service is absolutely dismal here.

And how has ad tracking personally harmed you or even inconvenienced you?

Buy a projector instead. Most don't have any of the "smart" spyware that TVs do yet. Plus you get like a 4x bigger screen for for half the price

What languages are those? And if you say C/C++ I'm going to laugh

Ironic because it's literally the same situation that Reddit was going through that caused the migration to Lemmy in the first place

Nah. I would hate to live in a country that bans personalized ads. It would be like living in the 90s watching cable TV seeing completely irrelevant tampon and baby ads as a single dude.

Personalized ads are much less annoying than the "spray-and-pray" noise we used to deal with.
