Wow. Windows 11 truly works against itself. (Though I expect MSFT to patch it within the week)

Does cheating in games justify downright deactivating custom accessories?

I despise bluesky but that too
- Comment on Lemmy active users down, comments steady and posts up 1 year ago:
meh, I’d say a mix of lack of ability to advertise efficiently on services like mastodon and lemmy and the fact that Lemmy and Mastodon are still in their “infancy” (I can’t say that about the latter since its pretty old in comparison to lemmy). Also, lack of marketing power compared to something like meta with billions of dollars of resources and all the motivation to try to get people to move away from Twitter and onto their services. This is new tech so I’d rather just stick to being niche for now and enjoy the experience. Its not going to last long and maybe soon by the next year we’re going to see alot progression.

Time to rethink Windows 10 support cycle then?
This doesn’t stop Microsoft. It only encourages them to do it harder.

Honestly, I don’t even think it’ll be S mode. Just Home really and for pro users they’ll end up with the subscription model
- Comment on The Moral Case for No Longer Engaging With Elon Musk’s X 1 year ago:
Oh no im not saying that about myself. left a long time ago when he started rate limiting and funding right leaning mfs. I’m just trying to imagine wby people stay on a service like that. I kinda hope elon starts charging for twitter so when i see who actually pays for it, its gonna be much easier to cut them off.
- Comment on The Moral Case for No Longer Engaging With Elon Musk’s X 1 year ago:
paying for twitter

Not even. Remember he was funding people like Andrew Tate thousands of dollars. Nothing is gonna get these people out unless they get charged to use twitter
- Comment on Spotify is going to clone podcasters’ voices — and translate them to other languages 1 year ago:
Its between the “it might take away jobs” to “spotify might use podcasters voices without consent”. I’m more on the latter but thats as if Spotify would end up being the “only” podcast streaming platform.
- Comment on Netflix Prepares to Send Its Final Red Envelope 1 year ago:
A bunch of my friends laughed when I said I was sad this service was ending because they were like “wtf? Who gets/uses DVDs??”
As they later pay $17 to barely watch any movies or have their favorite and shows get removed or cancelled for no reason.

You know elon will try no matter what.
- Comment on Bluesky sees record signups day after Musk says X will go paid-only 1 year ago:
I’m so glad people are calling Bluesky out for the trash service it is. I just mastodon outlasts this crap and we get more people on there than bluesky
- Comment on Meta is bolstering perks like happy hours and company swag as it pushes staff to return to office, despite its 'year of efficiency' 1 year ago:
That’s not hair… that’s skin for his
disguise. - Comment on Are Internet boards and Forums dead 1 year ago:
most people follow advertisements right back into the clutches of corpo-controlled products.
The thing is I expect places like Lemmy and even Mastodon to eventually fall to this behavior. The reason I’m even viewing them as services that should be must for the common user is the mere ability to even move out without having to leave everything behind (if you catch what i’m saying) thats the real core difference and hope that I have. The problem is again like anlumo said, defederation is definitely going to be a major hurdle and one where major companies will especially take advantage of.
- Comment on Are Internet boards and Forums dead 1 year ago:
Defederation is honestly both toxic and history repeating itself i guess. There’s reasons for it but it’ll pass.
- Comment on Are Internet boards and Forums dead 1 year ago:
I wouldn’t say its a return of traditional forums. Far from it really design wise. I think its more of a return to independence and decentralization. I think we’re done with the whole “Web 2.0. Everything in one convenient place” and want to back to an era where things were much harder to find and communities were a lot more separated and dedicated to their own spaces. The fediverse isn’t the end all be all and we’re gonna suddenly go back to the 90s but to me, it’s an honest step in the right direction that could really change the internet for the better.
- Comment on Are Internet boards and Forums dead 1 year ago:
There are the alternatives too!

X has finally formally announced X Pro, two days after TweetDeck users started noticing the new branding and paywall.
Shouldn’t this be illegal? Implementing a sudden paywall on a previously free feature without prior warning. LMAO

- Comment on Hexbear federation megathread 1 year ago:
As much as they can be annoying sometimes, I’d rather they be here than not. We should be very careful with who we defederate and what or else it could really kill the momentum we have and the beauty of being able to communicate with other users. I rather enjoy when an instance respects my responsibility of me as a user on whether I see what content and how. It doesn’t matter if it its a mod or an algorithm. I want to see hexbear users whenever I see fit and not let someone else decides for me.
- Comment on HW News - Linus Tech Tips' Terrible Response, ESMC, & Starfield x AMD GPUs 1 year ago:
I feel like the point of that video though was to point out how a common user using linux would just make these kind of mistakes which do happen and are legitimate. That’s one of the reasons why I enjoy Linux Mint so much really. Simple to use and not too much of a hassle while also slightly helping you understand some of the easier aspects of Linux.
