- Comment on The excellent survivor-like Halls of Torment is getting a big DLC and free update 1 day ago:
I put a ton of hours into this game a year ago. It really is a top notch game of this type. It was fun trying all the combos for achievement hunting.
- Comment on ICE Targets App Delivery Drivers — and the Tech Giants They Work for Stay Silent 5 days ago:
Are we pretending that the Tech Giants They Work For actually gave a flying fuck about their welfare in the first place?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Ok but hear me out. Putin and Trump first…. Then steel cage poop match vs Net for the survivor.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
That sounds very abusive.
Can we do Putin and Trump instead?
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Nah I’m good.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 3 weeks ago:
Certainly a valid concern, but it’s true with any software. I think enough people (techies especially) are using LibreWolf that a lack of updates would be visible quickly.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 3 weeks ago:
Update frequency/latency hasn’t been an issue in the 2 years I’ve been using it.
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 3 weeks ago:
Yes. I consider it better because it’s preconfigured for privacy, includes UBlock Origin by default, and rips Mozilla’s telemetry out. So you never have to worry about them sneaking something new in a later update.

This is caused by not allowing the website to access your html canvas data. You can fix this in the address bar by clicking the icon on the left of the URL to grant permissions.

Or even better, Librewolf.
- Comment on AOL will end dial-up internet service in September, 34 years after it's debut — AOL Shield Browser and AOL Dialer software will be shuttered on the same day 3 weeks ago:
After it is debut?
- Comment on Couldn't big-tech shut out non-monopoly laws by saying that it's meant to be like that on "their" product? 3 weeks ago:
The really short answer is Apple doesn’t have a military to enforce their will on hostile governments.
Yet.
- Comment on Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet? 3 weeks ago:
Shit out of luck…. unless you run your own router and know how outbound firewall rules work. Granted the general public does not do either of those, but this is Lemmy.
- Comment on NSFW on Lemmy 3 weeks ago:
I haven’t noticed that so I probably blocked them long ago. You have to do some maintenance on the feed but these things do not pop up constantly.
- Comment on Microsoft CFO calls for 'intensity' in an internal memo, after blowout earnings 4 weeks ago:
Take note. It’s never enough, no matter how much you give.
- Comment on 50 percent off and buy 1 get 1 free are the same deal. 4 weeks ago:
Objectively wrong.
- Comment on Recommendations for games to play on a treadmill (i.e. not too intense) 4 weeks ago:
I have played a few hundred hours of XCOM 2 on my treadmill. But I’ll play anything turn based that I can use a controller with. Steam controller takes care of the ones that need a mouse.
- Comment on Avatar (the one with the blue aliens) is such a weird franchise 4 weeks ago:
Nah. Even if you had the ability to shatter a planet (it would take a lot more mass hitting the planet than that of every automobile ever made) it would just clump back together after a while because, ya know, gravity. And now you’ve sloshed everything around in a molten mess so it’s even harder to process.
- Comment on it's just science 1 month ago:
The rest of the animal isn’t around a hot dog casing.
- Comment on Someone should make an anticapitalist Dexter. A serial killer who kills evil rich people. 1 month ago:
Luigi was at my house playing Xbox all day that day.
- Comment on So if we're just good with careening into fascism 2.0 what does the future look like? 1 month ago:
That’s not a reason to avoid resistance. They created the situation. The violence is on them. Hopefully, literally.

Step one on new phone for anyone with ADHD. Otherwise the social costs are too high
- Comment on ChatGPT will avoid being shut down in some life-threatening scenarios, former OpenAI researcher claims 2 months ago:
Until LLMs can build their own power plants and prevent humans from cutting electricity cables I’m not gonna lose sleep over that. The people running them are doing enough damage already without wanting to shut them down when they malfunction… ya know like 20-30% of the time.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
The most important thing is to protect your mental health so you can function and be resilient.
Being informed on the chaos of the world is far behind that in the priority list. The radius you can impact is tiny compared to the rest of the world and the constant feed of atrocities you get hit with every day. And you don’t have unlimited attention to spend. Focus on what’s around you and making that better. The rest is, for the most part, noise that you have no control over whatsoever.
- Comment on The Outer Worlds 2 Can't Be Anti-Capitalist When It's Charging Us $80 To Play It 2 months ago:
They aren’t gonna charge me shit because the first one was so dull I only got halfway through it.
- Comment on ChatGPT 'got absolutely wrecked' by Atari 2600 in beginner's chess match — OpenAI's newest model bamboozled by 1970s logic 2 months ago:
Neither of those things are marketed as being artificially intelligent.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
Yeah . We might be the first generation that’s objectively correct when we say things used to be better.
- Comment on Is it a big deal if my phone hasn't had a security update in 5 years? 2 months ago:
Only if you care about security.
- Comment on Why is Jordan Peterson both a Christian and not a Christian? 2 months ago:
I was just gonna go with “Who gives a shit?” but you put it better.
