• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Proton Mail Discloses User Data Leading to Arrest in Spain⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think that Proton sells my data to advertisers or trains AI using my emails and documents. As of laws, unfortunately any service in any reputable country has to obey them. You can always buy a server in some banana republic and set up an email service there, but even then there are some risks.

  You can, but people won’t be as thrilled for TES or Fallout without Bethesda, for example.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choose your difficulty⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That still makes USA easy mode compared to most countries.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Helldivers 2 Players Express Frustration On Steam As It Will Soon Require A PSN Account⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I live in one of the grey countries. You can create an account, but Sony offers different stores in different countries, so you have to pick another country. They even sells consoles in many of the grey countries. The biggest issue is that you probably won’t be able to buy anything without extra hustle because your card is not issued in the country of your PSN account. Also, this is technically against their ToS. But you can create an account to play Helldivers 2.

  With that said, I can’t speak for all countries. Maybe somewhere it’s really impossible to create an account without VPN.

  And that’s why they can afford investing in VR and in games like HL: Alyx. I enjoyed it very, very much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don’t upvote this⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow now my computer thinks I’m gay.

  I just order online, they’re yet to redesign the website.

  And a helicopter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Post your Servernames!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My Raspberry Pi is named ‘raspberrypi’. I’m very creative.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dutch government says it may stop using Facebook over privacy concerns⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, it’s not about privacy or anything like that. Which is why I don’t understand this decision at all. It’s not like they have to do anything besides public announcements on Facebook. What privacy are they trying to protect?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Yeah, but what if we used AI?"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Kind of. I don’t know rules and traditions of all communities I see on the “all” feed!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Yeah, but what if we used AI?"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Funny meme, silly rage bait title.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Miniflux Webhook⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Or use their API, you can filter by timestamp here miniflux.app/docs/api.html#endpoint-get-entries or get counters here miniflux.app/docs/api.html#endpoint-counters

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Take-Two is Preparing for a Mafia Series Announcement, it's Claimed⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You have to conquer areas of the city to proceed with the story. You go to some place like a factory, kill everyone, leave, a boss of the factory becomes alerted, comes to the factory, you go back and kill everyone again to get to the boss, kill or hire the boss. And that’s like 80% of the game. I think there were 20-30 repetitive missions like that with 0 substance. But Mafia I and Mafia II are fully focused on the story missions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NSA ’just days from taking over the internet’ warns Edward Snowden⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  He’s speaking ‘bad’ of USA, and that’s where tribalism kicks in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Turn up the heat⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t had a fever since

  Casually continues to live with a temp 61 degrees above the norm

  This generation of snakes is so sensitive smh.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple argues in favor of selling Macs with only 8GB of RAM⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I get the sense that a lot of people here don’t use MacOS.

  I wish that was true.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Professor meow meow⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s a long lasting tradition to use “we” even in solo authored papers. We believe even Newton did this

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eww, Copilot AI might auto-launch with Windows 11 soon⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, you and I known MS could simply ask…

  No.

  That’s the best known case, but it’s not limited to organ donation of course.

  they want that slide that says x many million users of Copilot…

  I didn’t argue with that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eww, Copilot AI might auto-launch with Windows 11 soon⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No, because most people stick with the default option regardless.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eww, Copilot AI might auto-launch with Windows 11 soon⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ultimately, most people stay with the default option, that’s why they have to be aggressive. Look at the amount of screenshots even in advanced PC communities with ugly useless search bar enabled, which is taking 1/3 of the taskbar. I’m not even speaking about casual users who have no idea this can be disabled.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨unsure why we are surprised lol⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lemmy.ml is still focused on FOSS and Privacy

  Meanwhile at c/worldnews they remove replies where people disagree that Ukraine is run by fascists and Putin should take it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Taylor Swift among 141 new billionaires in ‘amazing year for rich people’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  But why would she? She earned that, while you’re dreaming about life-changing sums falling from the sky.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨degree in bamf⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Are there apologists for Black trans women who make every effort to miss the fucking point

  Oh, don’t blame people. Don’t bring irrelevant details if you don’t want to distract them from the fucking point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spec Analysis: PlayStation 5 Pro - the most powerful console yet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  First of all, who are you to decide what I need and what I don’t need? Secondly, okay, 1500-2000 EUR for a mid-range PC. Even the lower boundary is 2.5 times more expensive than PS5. With Xbox the difference is even bigger.
