- Comment on Video game actors' strike officially ends after AI deal 3 days ago:
Rockstar actually went into hiring frenzy after the last delay, and it wasn’t just QA people this time but very fundamental positions like senior physics programmers, art leads, UX engineers and so.
I actually had many friends interviewed, some hired but most scared off as R* people made it pretty clear they’re walking into a mess.
To me, R* is trying to give birth to a baby in 1 month by hiring 9 pregnant people.
In VO terms I would highly doubt capturing performances would delay anything at all, but creating/revising rest of the cinematics is a burden for the devs. And R* would know better VO isn’t a part to go skimpy.
- Comment on Apple’s plan: Stall, cheat, repeat 5 days ago:
TBH Mac’s bootloader is pretty open so you can install whatever. There’s a nice distro named Asahi which you can spin up in like 5 minutes.
- Comment on Windows seemingly lost 400 million users in the past three years — official Microsoft statements show hints of a shrinking user base 2 weeks ago:
I’m thinking they’re doing it on purpose. Think you’re a multibazillion company, want to quit your least profitable line of work (OS business) but it’s also your most famous front. Diluting a business is how you quit without scaring investors.
- Comment on Doctors are using unapproved AI software to record patient meetings, investigation reveals 3 weeks ago:
To my surprise nobody delved into “open source” android code to find if any traces.
- Comment on Samsung teams up with Glance to use your face in AI-generated lock screen ads 5 weeks ago:
these kind of creepy stuff make me more glad I’m on iPhone.
- Comment on Israel's provocative settlement response may force Canada to back up its words 1 month ago:
No fucking country lost any “credibility” for not sanctioning Israel so far. Israeli government is smart enough to operate all over Muslimphobia.
- Comment on They finally patched racism 1 month ago:
I still can’t get over Varg chosen us, the Turkish people as his blood brothers like 10 years ago.
- Comment on What are the ethics behind purchasing a book from an author you don't agree with? 1 month ago:
I heard there’s this Anna, keeping an archive of those horrible books.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 and Palworld devs wish players understood that 'easy' additions and updates are sometimes really hard: 'That's half a year's work. That takes six months' 1 month ago:
That’s right. Still, it could take more than 6 months to make it right.
- Comment on European and Arab leaders call Israel to stop the attacks in Gaza 1 month ago:
Wow, European leaders just wash their hands and step aside clean, pretending to be the good guys once more huh? All while they’re suppressing the pro-Palestine demonstrations all around Eurovision tonight?
No. European leaders didn’t do shit. They had all the means stopping this genocide, and they didn’t even lift a finger.
It’s just a few countries where the military complex is negligible, Spain, Malta, Belgium etc.
- Comment on Europa Universalis V: Official Announcement Trailer 2 months ago:
Roads to Power DLC is so WHAT THE FUCK completely different game.
- Comment on Has anyone tested yunohost? 2 months ago:
Used for years, then moved into docker containers.
It’s pretty rad, especially as a domain controller.
- Comment on All four major web browsers are about to lose 80% of their funding | by Dan Fabulich | Apr, 2025 2 months ago:
Sure, security is the most important thing there. But I would say that’s a maintenance task and not really a development one.
Other protocols/tech you’ve mentioned already 7 to 10 years old. I don’t think they will get more love than they already did.
- Comment on All four major web browsers are about to lose 80% of their funding | by Dan Fabulich | Apr, 2025 2 months ago:
Title made me think… Aren’t we end of the Browser development cycle yet? What improvement browsers can benefit from now on? What else on the roadmap?
- Comment on Manage things "To be Read" 2 months ago:
Not selfhosted - tried a lots of solutions there but each of them fell sort at one point. But I’m paying for Readwise Reader for a while and it’s the swiss knife for anything you listed up there. Plus, you can enable (optional) AI summaries, including for videos.
I never had time or patience for video essays that can give once sentence idea in a minimum 8 minute video (minimum for monetization), so I just throw them at Reader, have them summarized and I’m off to go in 30 seconds.
- Comment on I'm bored and desperately search for a proper game 2 months ago:
ITT all games dancing around Bannerlord but no one recommended it yet.
- Comment on Synergy, a post apocalyptic town builder with a distinct art style inspired by Jean Giraud (Moebius) released on Steam. 2 months ago:
Talking of Moebius, go watch Scavengers Reign.
- Comment on OpenAI is building a social network 2 months ago:
…with the help of vibe coding.
- Comment on Spotify is down for many – here's everything we know so far 2 months ago:
Bandcamp is still owned by Epic Games though.
- Comment on What is the best Sea based game out there in your opinion? 2 months ago:
Pretty stoked with Bannerlord’s next expansion, War Sails.
- Comment on China confirms it will curb Hollywood film imports amid escalating trade war 2 months ago:
This is a big blow at the Culture War front.
China seized a once in a lifetime opportunity to get rid of Cultural dominance of Western civilization.
- Comment on Huginn is a self-hosted, open-source alternative to IFTTT and Zapier 3 months ago:
Same here. I tried Huginn like 4 times but it’s always easier to write my own python code instead. N8N really saved the day.
- Comment on I'm gonna be really pissed if my chtistofascist parents were right 4 months ago:
There’s a conspiracy talk in local mid-eastern/muslim bubbles that Evangelicals teaming up with Zionists to bring the Rapture as soon as possible.
The talk’s been around since Ottoman times so it’s easy to ignore, but given between apathy to Israel state’s genocide and Trump’s fast start to his secondary term gives me chills no lie.
- Comment on Every Country That Has Their Own Lemmy Instance 4 months ago:
Kinda proud for our Turkish fellows keeping that instance running ✌️
- Comment on Digital Fingerprinting: Google launched a new era of tracking worse than cookie banners | Tuta 4 months ago:

WEEO
- Comment on Yeah agree 5 months ago:
- Comment on Turkey's pro-Kurd party to meet jailed PKK leader on Saturday 6 months ago:
Neither. Both. Turkish ultranationalists expressed opinion about releasing Ocalan in return of his denouncement and will of disbandment of PKK.
In the meantime Turkish-backed rebels in Syria (not rebels anymore though) started a new fight with Syrian Kurdish YPG (Urban PKK backed by USA) and YPG is losing ground daily now.
(Ocalan is the primary leader of Kurdish Separatist movement, who’s been in jail for the last 20 years)
