- Comment on The Humane Ai Pin Will Become E-Waste Next Week 1 week ago:
It reminds me a bit of Garmin acquiring Pebble and discontinuing support. This does sound significantly worse though
- Comment on Is this a c/ for making fun of conservatives? 1 week ago:
It’s because right wing trolling is a lot of telling people they shouldn’t exist for matters beyond their control and left wing trolling is laughing about how dumb and absurd that mindset is.
- Comment on [PSA] Lemmy account deletion is a mess 2 weeks ago:
OP is expecting the deletion of posts and comments to federate in the same ways posting them would. I don’t think they’re necessarily going scorched earth and care about someone quoting their comment in a reply or resharing a photo.
I think that’s a bit grandiose of a stance. If I misread what someone said or realized someone already said what I did I don’t think deleting it leads to any kind of growth.
That’s setting aside how draining it can be to reply to several people who are making the same argument about how you are wrong. If I couldn’t delete what I posted at that point I would just be creating a slew of edits to justify myself like people regularly do on Reddit whenever they get downvoted.
- Comment on [PSA] Lemmy account deletion is a mess 2 weeks ago:
But that’s not what is being talked about. I don’t think OP is expecting an all or nothing situation. You’re talking like you’ve never deleted anything online
- Comment on [PSA] Lemmy account deletion is a mess 2 weeks ago:
But deleting stuff is an easy way to limit the amount of potential viewers.
Most people aren’t going to put in the effort. If OP’s account deletion spreads across most of Lemmy, even just the larger instances, most people aren’t going to see their older posts.
That seems to be what OP is after. More in line with hiding poorly written Doctor Who fan fiction than hiding from the government in the woods.
- Comment on A Mysterious PS3 Emulator Has Arrived On Android | Retro Dodo 2 weeks ago:
Reminds me a bit of DamonPS2 possibly stealing the PCSX2’s teams code
- Comment on Getting a Steam Deck to emulate retro games? 2 weeks ago:
It depends on what you want to emulate and if emulation is your primary concern. There are a lot of handheld emulators out there that are cheaper and can offer a smoother experience thanks to their custom firmware.
If you are looking for something to primarily play a specific console like GBA/DS or want to play less demanding consoles like PSX and below I’d say there are better options.
- Comment on I'm doing my part! 2 weeks ago:
Does it in anyway phrase the question to reference real hardware or original versions?
I feel like a lot of people emulate (including using Nintendo Switch Online) or play modernized remixes of titles like Super Mario 99
- Comment on [PSA] Lemmy account deletion is a mess 2 weeks ago:
Don’t you think that’s shifting the goalpost a bit? OP isn’t talking about something being archived they’re talking about a piece of content on social media still directly linking to that username.
Deleting things in as many places as possible making it harder to access is still a net positive.
It’s about as much of a part or mechanic of Lemmy as posting is.
- Comment on Are mods usually confusing as hell or am I just an idiot? 4 weeks ago:
Isn’t GTA IV a bit difficult to mod? I feel like I recall using OpenIV and having to track down the correct directories to install each part of a mod the right way
- Comment on Are mods usually confusing as hell or am I just an idiot? 4 weeks ago:
Even then it can be difficult. A lot of mods have other dependencies that need to be installed and those dependencies and can have dependencies.
- Comment on Are mods usually confusing as hell or am I just an idiot? 4 weeks ago:
Mod Organizer 2 is typically recommended over Vortex but it depends on the game. I think Vortex has wider support.
- Comment on Sid Meier's Civilization VII | Review Thread 4 weeks ago:
I’ve done zero research into the new release. Does it add much in the way of major game changing alterations? I’m thinking along the lines of how the district systems dramatically the feel of the game
- Comment on EA releases another shameless IP flip with Sims 1/2 Legacy 4 weeks ago:
I wonder if the Clean UI mod would help with your issue. Have you tried just adjusting your resolution though? I’ve heard 720p is the optimal resolution to avoid various bugs

- Comment on Valve won't sacrifice battery life to deliver a more powerful Steam Deck 2 4 months ago:
I’m glad they aren’t planning on releasing incrementally upgraded devices.
Retroid makes a lot of handheld emulators that are decent quality but it feels like they release a new model every few months that’s just slightly better than the last. It’s an easy way to feel cheated and hesitant about what you’re buying.
- Comment on TikTok owner ByteDance sacks intern for sabotaging AI project 4 months ago:
Yeah. I feel like the headline also misrepresented the extent of what happened.
But the firm rejected claims about the extent of the damage caused by the unnamed individual, saying they “contain some exaggerations and inaccuracies”
Is probably the key takeaway and a good summary of what the article is about
- Comment on From a cyber security aspect how hazardous are random mini PCs from Ali Express/Amazon if you are starting with a fresh OS install? 5 months ago:
I’m consider getting one for surfing the web on a secondary monitor. Nothing important is occurring but I asked this question for two reasons.
- I’m a nerd who finds a lot of this neat
- It can be hard to create a threat profile if you don’t know a threat exists.
Plenty of people put some level of work into making their PC’s OS more secure using YouTube tutorials and tips but they may not think to update their BIOS for example
- Comment on From a cyber security aspect how hazardous are random mini PCs from Ali Express/Amazon if you are starting with a fresh OS install? 5 months ago:
Do most motherboards receive long term support updates? I feel like I’ve only ever gotten a few updates for the ones I’ve used but maybe that was because I was buying older boards.

I once got flak for linking the NSFW source behind an image in a piracy community and someone got mad about it like your workplace is going to be thrilled about you looking for pirated content in a Fake Taxi meme
