Tell me you didn’t watch the video without telling me you didn’t watch the video. 😁
…or for that matter read the article what-if.xkcd.com/8/ it is a summary of, one of my favorite what ifs for a long time. 😉

- Comment on Is there a way to mirror corporate social media to the Fediverse? 1 week ago:
That’s what lemmit.online is for reddit to Lemmy, sr.ht/~cloutier/bird.makeup/ for Twitter and apparently also Instagram.
One problem with this is copyright; if it’s OC images or text posts, it could infringe on the original poster’s copyright. Not a problem if it’s merely sharing links.
- Comment on Question: why mastodon hastag timeline shows posts from lemmy community of same name? 1 week ago:
No, this is false as far as I can tell. I am willing to be corrected by someone more knowledgeable but my understanding is:
Communities are implemented not as hashtags, but as special users who “boost” everything addressed to them. That is why Lemmy sometimes gets posts made on Mastodon that mention a Lemmy community. It doesn’t always look great: discuss.tchncs.de/post/45785836
So communities and hashtags aren’t the same thing. In particular, communities have moderators who can remove things or ban people. Hashtags don’t.
It is a feature of Lemmy that all new posts (not, AFAIK, comments) also get the community name added as a hashtag. This is what OP was seeing and serves to somewhat increase the reach of Lemmy posts. But you can’t follow microblog hashtags on Lemmy.

- Comment on Gamepad for Linux Gaming? 3 weeks ago:
I don’t think there’s much difference. Any standard USB gamepad should work equally fine. I find the Xbox layout more comfortable than the PlayStation one, but this may be different for different people.
- Comment on To the rapidly aging person reading this: GameFAQs is 30 years old, and people are sharing their memories of the venerable guide hub 3 weeks ago:
everything is fucking videos now
did you know that the more inappropriate the place you put the word “fucking” in is, the more seriously people will take your comments? :D

- Comment on What's your favorite case of a game making fun of you? 4 weeks ago:
In Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, the NPC who asks “where are you from” and we get the options “yes” and “no”.
(He has not heard of yes town, nor does he believe we don’t come from anywhere at all.)

- Comment on The Internet's Biggest Annoyance:Why Cookie Laws Should Target Browsers, Not Websites 5 weeks ago:
One problem I can think of with the idea of legally requiring browsers to do anything at all is, how does this apply to hobbyist open source browsers? Will it be illegal to start developing a new browser in public unless it already has this feature?
- Comment on Can you drive west to lengthen the sunset? 5 weeks ago:
You mean the part about spinning counterclockwise?
In the original text form what-if.xkcd.com/42/ this was just a link to the comic, I guess that wouldn’t have worked in a video.

- Comment on How should Lemmy sort posts so small communities can compete? 1 month ago:
That would cause me to miss many interesting threads that were created at a time when I happened not to be looking at Lemmy.
“New comments” it is for me, that causes threads to get bumped to the top as long as other people still find them interesting.

- Comment on Are there any games you don't play as it was intended to be played? If so, what game and how? 1 month ago:
When I regularly played Need for Speed: Most Wanted (the old one from the 2000s), I often intentionally didn’t escape the cops at low wanted levels in order to get to higher wanted levels. Not sure this counts because it’s basically what you have to do if you want to have fun in this game…
Recently I’ve been playing a lot of EA FC 25, and when I’m already clearly winning (or losing), I usually commit a lot of fouls just because I can.
