Is it necessary? No, not really.
But it does seem kinda fun. A little novelty.

- Comment on Helldivers 2 devs once considered a licensed cosmetic system that basically let you hallucinate a different world 2 months ago:
Like the Provision Goggles, yes.

- Comment on We found the Missing Performance: Zen 5 Tested with SMT Disabled 5 months ago:
I know the article says what it is, I know it’s wrong, I know it’s irrelevant…
But I can’t read “SMT” as anything other as Shin Megami Tensei.
- Comment on Reddit blocking all major search engines, except Google 6 months ago:
You can see posts from every instance that your instance has federated with. For example, I, on toast.ooo, can see posts on lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works because my instance federates with them.
You can’t see posts from instances that your instance has defederated with, though, nor can you see posts from instances that have defederated with yours. Think of it like cutting one of those thick undersea cables that connect the internet across continents.
There’s a lot to consider when picking an instance; lemmy.world is a good default, so that’s probably why Voyager directed you to it, but don’t be afraid to switch to another instance of you think it’ll serve you better!

Send in the flying slap-chop.
- Comment on 'Russian spy agency forgot to pay its bill’: Did a delinquent ChatGPT account expose a pro-Trump Russian bot campaign? 7 months ago:
So it’s an exception to itself?
- Comment on WHERE ARE YOUR COSHH FORMS, MR. FREEZE?? 9 months ago:
I think it’s because of Lemmy’s stronger left lean, especially amongst those around before the Reddit API fiasco.
- Comment on I didn't read the TOS for Baldurs Gate 3 until now 10 months ago:
imho, that’s how you find the some of the best games games.
Find the ones that people pirate, then enjoy so much that they go out of their way to get an official copy.
- Comment on Police Departments Are Turning to AI to Sift Through Millions of Hours of Unreviewed Body-Cam Footage 11 months ago:
Yes.

Oh ho ho, delightfully devilish, Dexter!
- Comment on Google Will Now Back Right-to-Repair 1 year ago:
Well, slander tends to be fictitious, so its inverse would just be facts that paint someone in a positive light.

This one does not spark joy.
- Comment on Google forced to reveal users' search histories in Colorado court ruling 1 year ago:
“If you’ve got nothing to hide, you’ve got nothing to fear.”
- Comment on We Finally Have Proof That the Internet Is Worse 1 year ago:
The issue is that a good number of products are only available through Amazon, and a metric ton of services that people depend on are owned by Google.
Just saying “don’t use Amazon or Google” is almost tantamount to saying “don’t eat food” or “don’t drink water”.
Should that be the case? No. But right now, it is.
- Comment on We need to remodulate the phasers 1 year ago:
Yes.
- Comment on Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core - Teaser Trailer 1 year ago:
Well, they still need to keep the lights on, and I can’t imagine they can crank out paid cosmetics from now until eternity.
- Comment on Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core - Teaser Trailer 1 year ago:
I imagine this is something they want to create without contending with the constraints of Deep Rock Galactic as it currently stands, since this pushes more in a rogue-like direction instead of the class-based shooter that is vanilla DRG.
It’s understandable, but I also hope it’s priced fairly as well.
- Comment on Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core - Teaser Trailer 1 year ago:
They did say S5 would be a tie-in to Rogue Core, so maybe it’ll be an excuse to introduce this new material, along with a new biome?
- Comment on When does the future begin? 1 year ago:
I feel like at some point, you’d need arbitrary precision and arbitrarily-sized real numbers in order to meaningfully represent it.
- Comment on Metaverse: What happened to Mark Zuckerberg's next big thing? 1 year ago:
Not even VRChat, it’s straight up just worse Second Life.
And I trust Linden Lab far more than I trust Meta.
- Comment on When the writers say a planet is -291 Celsius 1 year ago:
Mmm… gotta love below 0 Kelvin.
- Comment on Today The UK Parliament Undermined The Privacy, Security, And Freedom Of All Internet Users 1 year ago:
…this would make E2EE effectively meaningless, because no amount of encryption will protect against getting scanned at the entrance and exit.

We do not talk about the Wii U.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I would kill for kilts to be normalized. And dresses for men in general. What’s it gonna take for dresses to be manly, god damnit?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
Well a plain, simple man like Garak needs something to do with all his free time.
- Comment on Unity Claims PlayStation, Xbox & Nintendo Will Pay Its New Runtime Fee On Behalf Of Devs 1 year ago:
Viable, yes, but I don’t think Godot currently matches up to Unity in terms of capability. I do think this will very much get an impetus going for people & studios to invest into Godot’s development, though.
- Comment on Unity Silently Deletes GitHub Repo that Tracks Terms of Service Changes and Updated Its License - GamerBraves 1 year ago:
IIRC it doesn’t have quite as much polish as Unity or Unreal, and last I researched, it doesn’t run natively on Wayland (yet).
