- Comment on What's the best way to answer someone who accuses you of being a bot because they don't like what you have to say? 1 week ago:
It’s funny, but it’s not good advice. If you said “I’m not a bot. If there’s something specific you disagree with, I’m happy to clarify.” they’d KNOW you’re a bot

Calling someone an NPC is just an insult. Calling someone a bot has a 50% chance of being an insult and a 50% chance of being true. Adjust percentages as needed
- Comment on What game is a guilty pleasure of yours? 2 weeks ago:
I still enjoy the game even as is. It’s well made for a show/movie themed game

I don’t generally think encouraging people to live in fantasies is a good idea. I understand your viewpoint on religion being a fantasy, but unfortunately there is a difference between religion and believing centaurs are real.

The idea with fast charging is it’s going to generate more heat. That extra heat is what damages the batteries life

Technically they only benefit from money after the price was set, which was recently

Malware is a decent reason. You may get the game, but you’ll likely get more along with it.
Now movies on the other hand…
- Comment on YSK: you can stop Microsoft users from sending 'reactions' to your email by adding a "x-ms-reactions: disallow" header 5 weeks ago:
I will say, it’s practical for everyone using the same system. Sometimes it’s nice to acknowledge an email without having to respond to it
And when I had my school account, they’d send out phishing alerts of what to look out for. Those emails would be spammed with crying laughing emojis

Are you sure there wasn’t a video at the top or bottom of the web page? What you were listening to is kind if irrelevant, since if some other media starts playing it’ll pause whatever media was playing before.

Nobody is going to rebuild the east wing. Americans don’t want it torn down, but I’m sure most of us also don’t want our money spent rebuilding it

In America, they are legally required to disclose paid reviews. If the company pays for the review they legallt must disclose it
If you receive free products or other perks with the expectation that you’ll promote or discuss the advertiser’s products in your blog, the FTC Act applies to you.

Problematic undercurrents of homophobia aside, the trend paints a troubling picture of a future filled with photorealistic and eerily believable AI slop.
What a fucking incredible line
- Comment on I've recently turned into a blocker. 1 month ago:
How should Lemmy handle it if they quote a portion or even the entire message in a child comment? If someone’s goal is to not have to worry about shit someone says, and then they are still shown what that person says, does that not defeat the purpose of blocking?

They would be annoyed at this comment if they could see it ^/s^
- Comment on I've recently turned into a blocker. 1 month ago:
why should online be any different?
I know I am taking the wrong message from this, but online is different in basically every way. You cannot block someone in real life. You can try to avoid them, but they can still talk to you. You can put in ear buds, but that doesn’t make them not there.
Really, the solution is to spend less time on technology and more time communicating IRL. Even if it is uncomfy

Have you heard of the experiment with swimming rats and how much longer they swam when given hope? We need hope to survive.
Though they don’t say we will solve it, but that we can solve it if we start now.
- Comment on Do you think The Boys is an accurate representation if real people had superpowers? 2 months ago:
Yes. They just dont even cover most people

Part of why that world works the way it does is Vought
You act like we don’t have Vought in the real world already. Vought is literally just a parody of Amazon, and not just because it’s made by Amazon Prime

You do not have to port forward. In fact, I would suggest against port forwarding. There are other options to access remotely

I can’t imagine moving over would be difficult. Just point Jellyfin to the same folder containing your content. When I first setup my home lab, I was going to use Plex, but I could not get it to recognize media. The naming format wasn’t right or something. Jellyfin just worked immediately
- Comment on FFS Plex, the server is on my local network 2 months ago:
the ability to easily watch or listen to friends’ media
Why do you think this can’t be done with Jellyfin?

There’s no way there is a connection between the person asking the question and the shooter. It was a debate with Charlie Kirk. Of course gun violence is going to come up. Especially since it started by asking about gun violence involving trans people.
- Comment on Thoughts on the humble bundle this month? 2 months ago:
It was recently increased to $15 USD. Though the Plucky Squire actually looks like a solid game published by Deveolver Digital. Looks like it has gone on sale for $15 before, so it’d basically be like buying that game. And you get Grapple Dog thrown in
- Comment on What’s the actual reason neurodivergent people are sometimes discriminated against or bullied? 2 months ago:
Tribalism is literally human nature, though. People have a natural tendency to have a group they consider their own, and those outside of that group. It absolutely is human nature, and has been for thousands of years.
product of a society that demands conformity, hierarchy, and defines community through exclusion
Have you ever thought that maybe those happened because of human nature, and not the other way around?

I mean, I just use the scheduled backups and back it up to a locally hosted server. Though the scheduled backups just go to a folder on my phone
