Firefox, is just a REAL alternative, it is more human focused, is it owned by less evil company? Yes. ( I know chromium is MIT, but they can just remove it and everybody is fucked )

- Comment on Electric cars will be cheaper to make than gas vehicles but with much higher repair and insurance costs 2 months ago:
They will never be cheaper. Just the costs of the battery, or they do shady bussiness tricks, like hooking you in cheap initial costs but horeandus repair/replacement bills.

- Comment on Physical or Digital? 2 months ago:
Most of the time physically, it is just a code to activate it on steam.
On PC the pirates says, what you can do with it. On the console the company says if you own this movie/game you BOUGHT or not. ( See the Playstation movie “incident” where Sony removed many movies some people BOUGHT, but at least the backlash made Sone reconsider the BS they wanted to pull of.
P.S. Yeah, yeah i know. “It iSnT BuYiNg YoU OnLy PuRchAsE a LiCenSe tO ThE PrOdUcT” But still its such b.s. that you declare it as BUYING instead of RENTING, Sony have them on their neck of the console gamers, because piracy or third party stores are not existing so they can pull of those stunts.

Yeah “because of…” sounds like the eu are the bad guys, but they are the good ones in this case.
- Comment on How does lemmy differ from reddit? 2 months ago:
We try to do our best in that. We try to keep us out of community matter. We know its YOUR community. Of course sometimes, it requires admin intervention but only if we see urgent matter, otherwise we want to talk to the mods first for their point of view.
We have a discord server for better communication too. discord.gg/TnqAFsdgy4 and a matrix space too: matrix.to/#/#space:lemmy.world
- Comment on How does lemmy differ from reddit? 2 months ago:
If I report a comment, is my report private?
No, this is because of already many abuses.
Are the powers of moderators similar to reddit’s?
Much less but soon with sublinks aw lemmy compatible backend / ui it will become a lot better.
Any other differences from reddit I should know about?
Everything here is PUBLIC, because of federation many things gets federated everywhere even without you noticing sometimes.
Everyone here is unpaid, so mods and admins are here equal instead of reddit admins beeing paid millions for beeing *ssholes.Here, if you dont like the admin of an instance you can somewhat easily swap to a different instance ( sh.itjust.works, lemmy.today … ), but be aware if you just went out with a “Bang”, like you trolled a lot and got permabanned you wont be welcome in the other instance because the admins are most of the time in good contact to each other, and warn for trolls or harassment.

- Comment on Are there any genuine benefits to AI? 2 months ago:
I have sometimes the same issue!
- Comment on Are there any genuine benefits to AI? 2 months ago:
AI has some interesting use cases, but should not be trusted 100%.
Like github copilot ( or any “code copilot”):
- Good for repeating stuff but with minor changes
- Can help with common easy coding errors
- Code quality can take a big hit
- For coding beginners, it can lead to a deficit of real understanding of your code
( and because of that could lead to bugs, security backdoors… )
Like brief translation:
- Good translation of the common/big languages ( english, german…)
- Can extend a brief summary to a big wall of text ( and back )
- If wrong translated it can lead to that someone else understands it wrong and it misses the point
- It removes the “human” part. It can be most of the time depending on the context easily identified.
But dont do anything that is IMPORTANT with AI, only use it for fun or if you know if the code/text the AI wrote is correct!
- Comment on Apple Vision Pro Could Take Four Generations to Reach 'Ideal Form' 2 months ago:
The thing is, you compare old apple ( real chads, good inovation for CHEAP as advertised ) to new apple ( greedy *ss corpos that want to double the prices if they could ).
- Comment on Apple Vision Pro Could Take Four Generations to Reach 'Ideal Form' 3 months ago:
Yeah like the iphone 15 or is it the up to date one currently? I dont know anymore with that yearly rerelease. And if i know apple, the next gen would cost 6k instead of “just” 3.5k because its apple, it goes up never down on next release.
- Comment on Diagon Lemmy - A Queer-friendly, Harry Potter-themed Lemmy Server is now live (before you block me instantly, please hear me out) 3 months ago:
I would recommend only opening with regsitration application only. And only federate with instances you trust and want to get federated and have some contact with the admins that you federate with. ( On matrix or anywhere else ) We have a common, matrix channel where many admins are active ( matrix.to/#/#defense:lemmy.world ) there you get early warnings about bad stuff that could be federated to you.
