Yeah, I'm sure Amazon's position as the owner of some programmers and a bigass greenscreen will allow their slop to synergize into ambrosia. Great interview, my guy, now do one in a few years where you explain it's the fault of Steam's monopolistic position your shit wasn't scarfed down by the masses.

I thought I liked it and that it had enough users, thank you for setting me straight.

definitely reduces my loyalty to the platform

You are either paying the subscription or not, your inner states mean nothing to them or us.

Pot protecting users from kettle

That's great news, I'm really digging the slow downfall.

Many older and/or casual gamers who've stopped following gaming and are living under the idiomatic rock would absolutely love a steam deck. And a significant portion of those would find it an upgrade over their laptop for Office and shit.

I am noticing your post, but I file it as part of the "anecdotal generalizations" trend

Can it be jailbroken and used without a fb account?

This, but completely deadpan

The third season of Witcher is a marvel, it's completely incoherent shit cobbled together from scenes they had laying around and every scene with not much happening is drawn out for maximum time.

I like Flatpak and despise Snap (on a personal computer, it's tolerable on a server) enough to sudo apt remove and purge snapd from a new installation. The startup time is slow and I hate having snaps as mountpoints. It doesn't help that Firefox is by default a Snap on Ubuntu - it feels as if you're starting it on a mechanical HD with a Core2Duo processor and you can really appreciate how stupid having such a core app as a browser is as Snap when you add the PPA and install it as a deb package. Don't even get me started on the asinine "we update when we want to" that makes you restart your browser at most inopportune times. I hate Snap so much it's unreal.

it’ll suffer the same fate as Mastodon

You mean, be successful. Good that this fucker who "tried and promptly quit" Mastodon finds himself called to judge it.

I'm looking forward to never using Google's next generation AI assistant just as much as I never used the last one.

This is the stupidest shit, but it'll help remove any veneer of business legitimacy that pisshole has, so I'm all for it.

Pretty please, fuck off with the AI. It's really not something I need from a browser, don't inflate your download size for a screen reader, just MAKE IT OPTIONAL in every way.

Don't see why they couldn't just spew iterative inclusive designs over the 2D one, this is kind of badly animated and has a 00s vibe to the concept. The disco ball-skinned and spiky mohawk examples are downright repulsive designs

Well, lemmy in general needs content. A lot of content is news and having bots post the news is not different from hooking up an rss feed to fill the feed. It's not the bots that are the problem, it's motivations of those who program them. Are the bots shilling a service/product/viewpoint?

ActiBlizz haven't made anything I've been interested in for some time. MS got some amazingly shitty games out of Bethesda tho, Redfall and Starfield are just case studies in despising your audience.

It is a pc, it's gaben maintaining your arch. And it has officially supported replacement parts. And the thermals are great and power usage almost optimal. And it's a kickass console as well that you don't have to re-buy games for and can run emulators and still use all input as you like.

none of your

This hand-wringing bullshit would feel much more weighty if a FOSS alternative with manual controls didn't exist available for free on the same OS and the same device: https://f-droid.org/packages/net.sourceforge.opencamera/

Mod elections should be annual and no mod should enjoy that status for life.

We are talking about an unpaid position. For me, the best thing about the downfall of reddit is it made blindingly clear that the content is ephemeral, shitposting is not all that important and that online forums are communities in name only.

You're not going anywhere.

Why? I dropped maps completely as soon as they started enshittifying it with elements I don't use that can't be removed from the UI; now I use only OSMand. I dumped Chrome when they announced manifest v3 and use Firefox. I dropped Google Play store when they made it difficult to see the exact version and it turns out f-droid has everything I need. I also dumped gmail for k9; their sms client for an open source one; I removed their Youtube client and use Newpipe. I always search with Ecosia or DDG before trying google.

Why should I give a fuck

Embracer could have done a little extending before going all extinguisher.

This statement irks me unproportionally strongly compared to how banal it is. It's the equivalent of "it is what it is" in saying nothing, but with some edgy pedantic seasoning. What about if the atmosphere was stripped and the planet was left a barren rock? What about if something knocked it from out of the Solar system and it was sent reeling into the universe on its own? "The planet doesn’t care, it can carry on without us" -- and please, pretend I did the Spongebob random caps thing, because that's what I think of your banality.

You'd have to try hard to do it without a pc, since it's a pc itself.

Popular actors in cyberpunk 2077 are the worst part of it IMO, I'd much rather have those characters sport a face I haven't seen a thousand times.

I for one love downfall drama

I might be jaded, but I'd wager that whoever buys it, is going to be worse than having Epic as a rich daddy who is focused on and making money through his core business and doesn't really know what to do with Bandcamp. Entities that buy it are almost certainly going to squeeze harder at the expense of user experience.

Now that Simple SMS Messenger by Mobile Tools has been bought, the answer is its fork, the Fossify SMS Messenger on f-droid.

This can seem a bit sad at a first glance. Where are we heading?

These metrics are only relevant if you're fattening for an IPO.

I wouldn't let them fondle my testicles.

As always, people completely overreacting to the minor inconvenience of having testicles fondled. Crazy

Moodle on postgresql gets my vote

I look into it, but can't seem to buy anything not Motorola. They're reasonably clean out of the box, have good batteries and survive getting wet even with no IP rating. Using Moto G52 currently.

a viable alternative

It's already a viable alternative. I can tell because I'm only here and not there anymore and lack nothing

we need to convince more Redditors to switch over by mentioning Lemmy in the right threads

This is just the worst idea. First off, it would require me to have a reddit account, which I nuked. Second, it'd require me to go to reddit and there's no more ingress points that won't rape my eyes. And finally, I'm not using my time and energy proselytizing just to accelerate another tragedy of the commons.

Signal's "Note to self" is an option.

This wasn't mentioned and it's ideal: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1337010/Alba_A_Wildlife_Adventure/

Apes together strong.

I seriously lol'd when he said "you might know me from such shitposts as getting Wayland to work on ipod nano"

Deleted my account, but I installed a firefox extension that forces every reddit link through the old.reddit interface and it's okay for lurking it.
