- Comment on Struggling to get the service manual for a Beko washing machine 2 days ago:
What is the model?
- Comment on SOUL PARK (in early access), a themepark "at the gates of hell" management game, releases demo on Steam 2 days ago:
released in June, less than 6 bucks, only 1 review.
I haven’t tried it yet, but it’s hard being an indie dev it seems.
- Comment on Half of Young Norwegians Say Online Piracy Is an Acceptable Way to Save Money * TorrentFreak 2 days ago:
How about reading the article before commenting
- Comment on What is the difference between lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works? 3 days ago:
Here’s the description by both:
sh.itjust.works:
A bilingual (EN/FR) general-purpose instance located in eastern Canada! Powered by 99% renewable energy! Everyone is welcome eh.
Lemmy.World:
A generic Lemmy server for everyone to use. (…) Lemmy.World is a general-purpose Lemmy instance of various topics, for the entire world to use
The comments about instances being “good” or “bad” is just plain ol’ tribalism.
Users get attacked for the instances they registered to, even if they were unaware of instance politics when they actually registered. That sucks!
- Comment on At what age do we switch from measuring a human by length to by height? 3 days ago:
I guess that answers it then - when humans start walking instead of crawling
- Comment on At what age do we switch from measuring a human by length to by height? 3 days ago:
??? not a joke answer - what is the difference between length and height?
- Comment on How To Compress A Video Without Losing Quality 4 days ago:
Having fun responding to these advertorials:
Title: "How To Compress A Video Without Losing Quality"
- Compress video using Zip Yeah, I always share my videos in a zip file, especially when I’m sharing it with strangers.
- Change the resolution I thought without losing quality was the goal here?
Anyway, use HandBrake to compress videos. It’s got a slider for quality so you can finetune the quality and file size to get as close to the file size you want to share it.
- Comment on How Can Gamers Build A Strong Gaming Community? 4 days ago:
Building a thriving community may improve gaming, increase engagement, and offer priceless support—regardless of your experience level as a streamer. Let’s look at some useful tactics and tips in this post to assist you in building an engaged and active gaming community.
So this is an ad for the website the blog is written on, I take it?
With Yostream, gamers can stream directly from their browser without zero concerns about clunky setups and laggy streams.
Ah, there it is.
- Comment on PS5 Pro is struggling to improve some games, despite its power advantage 5 days ago:
So 2 out of 50 games aren’t really improved, aka 4%.
Turns out you can’t just throw better hardware at every game to make it run better, who would have thought.
- Comment on Is there a way to exclude topics from what I see on Lemmy? 6 days ago:
I think this is only possible through apps at the moment, like Voyager. Although there has been recent talk on GitHub, they acknowledge it will take a while before it’s implemented.
- Comment on Signal gets new video call features, making it a viable alternative to Zoom, Meet and Teams 1 week ago:
And an alternative to Discord?
A chatroom isn’t hard to replace, but the video/voice calling on Discord is what keeps people there.
- Comment on Jewel Beetles 1 week ago:
Thank you too!
- Comment on Jewel Beetles 1 week ago:
Nice! Now let’s get OP to edit the post and the balance is restored.
- Comment on Jewel Beetles 1 week ago:
It’s not pandering to children. It’s pandering to “ad-friendly” platforms that otherwise overly or covertly suppress the content
- Comment on Sonic Adventure DX gripe 2 weeks ago:
I found Pikmin 4 problematic in a way too. You get the best toys at the very end so you end up not using them very much
- Comment on Sonic Adventure DX gripe 2 weeks ago:
Patient gamers do not face a lot of disadvantages, but they do include (artificial) scarcity, waning official support and facing old-ass design choices that might not look very favourable anymore.
My problem with this is that once the game is 100% complete, do I want to still play just to see a different cosmetic?
I don’t really see this as an issue, but as a choice. Back in the day, games lasted a lot longer. Hell yes we wanted to play as Metal Sonic. The next best thing we had was replaying the game as just Sonic.
- Comment on Monthly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing? 3 weeks ago:
I’ve found the perfect method to take a break from Factorio is to apply Satisfactory and a dash of Techtonica.
I say break, because there’s no stopping Factorio. I’m afraid it’s chronic.
- Comment on Moderators protect us from the worst of the internet. That comes at huge personal cost. 3 weeks ago:
As a moderator and admin for countless Discord communities, yeah, I’ve seen some vile shit.
Pretending that it doesn’t have an impact doesn’t help in the long run. Secondary Trauma is a thing. Create a workflow to distance yourself from the content, plan breaks, and please talk to someone (qualified) about it.
- Comment on What do you like/dislike about lemmy? 3 weeks ago:
I think the problem is that people think the memes are created by the person uploading, as if they chose to censor it.
Someone is just sharing a funny they saw on Instagram, there’s not much more to it.
- Comment on Matrix 2.0 Is Here! 3 weeks ago:
Epic timing, I want to dive in and see if I can mirror setting up Discord communities in the most painless way possible. This seems to be a great step in the right direction. Imagine a place… where you get the best of both worlds and we can leave Discord behind.
- Comment on Original Super Mario Bros. Fan Port Now on Game Boy Color 3 weeks ago:
Yeah I don’t get why they would want to risk this. Go remake/demake some game by a company that won’t try and kick you in the nuts.

I unironically want this

Nah there’s no record of ‘Blimpson’ being a surname, I call bullshit. But your investigate efforts are appreciated.

I refuse to believe this isn’t a shitpost
- Comment on Expedition 33 Dev Confirms $50 Price Is Correct, '30+ Hours of Main Game' 5 weeks ago:
What a world we live in, where cheaper games are seen as less quality because the theory of capitalism has conditioned us to believe higher quality = higher price.
