- Comment on Bring out the trumpets and pour out the beer 3 hours ago:
Ew. Unless your bachelor’s is from a for-profit university, that’s not going to set you back.
Best I can do is for you to LARP as a 2A activist. No pay but you get to feel like you’re one of the special ones. At least until we don’t need you anymore.
- Comment on Bring out the trumpets and pour out the beer 5 hours ago:
Yeah, but, hear me out…what if I told you you’re now allowed to be openly racist?
And openly transphobic? Would that sweeten the pot?
- Comment on The recent Steam censorship debacle actually sort of opened me up to adult games. 6 hours ago:
Which is why I think the next big step is a blogsite that actually covers these without feeling like you are just reading a guy’s wank diary
There is a site that I frequent but due to this community’s instance rules, I won’t post it here.
The site is more of a forum/community than a blog but it’s pretty good.
- Comment on The recent Steam censorship debacle actually sort of opened me up to adult games. 10 hours ago:
The biggest issue with adult content in games is that it limits your market to adults that want that content. Which is already small to begin with. And you often can’t advertise the same way, which limits your audience further. You only find out about them through word of mouth or through places like Lemmy.
From the standpoint of the developer, your ROI is likely to be very small. I think that’s why VN are the most popular form of adult games, since they are easier to make than full games.

And I thought the cum box was bad.
- Comment on Always have a good password 2 days ago:
We need something similar to the good Samaritan law but for digital access.
- Comment on It's true. 3 days ago:
It’s not that people hate facts and science.
They hate facts and science that disagrees with their pre established beliefs.
They will happy spout whatever half truths that support their arguments but they will firmly reject anything that doesn’t.
- Comment on do what you love 4 days ago:
I’d think it’d be more ethical to do the exact opposite.
- Comment on An Open Letter to Kickstarter Creators: Why We, Kickstarter United, Are Fighting for a Four-Day 32-Hour Workweek 4 days ago:
I didn’t know Kickstarter employees had a union.
I hope they get it. Hell, I’d ask for a 3 day work week now.
- Comment on Reddit is using AI to determine users beliefs, values, stances and more based on their activity (posts and comments) summarizing it to Subreddit Mods. 5 days ago:
My concern is that Reddit can sell their profiling algorithm to other companies, who then can federate with Lemmy, mastodon, etc. to build profiles against users.
It’s getting to the point where I may need to go back to cycling usernames every few years.
- Comment on TikTokers are calling LA ICE raids 'music festivals' to trick the algorithm 5 days ago:
I recently became active again on LinkedIn because gestures generally at all of the layoffs and even they have short form videos.
Who asked for that?!
- Comment on Redditor advises people in DC hide Air Tags in their clothes to help family identify them if they go missing. 1 week ago:
Depends on how far in the body. Bluetooth works off of 2.4Ghz spectrum so water will limit its transmission ability.
Surface is probably fine but inside a prison pocket will probably be troublesome.
- Comment on If AI takes most of our jobs, money as we know it will be over. What then? 1 week ago:
I fully suspect some billionaire will invent “vibe repairing”.
- Comment on Two weeks notice 1 week ago:
Depends on the company. I’ve worked for companies that have a policy that you must give two weeks notice or you cannot be hired back.
We need fucking unions everywhere.
- Comment on SpaceX Gets Billions From the Government. It Gives Little to Nothing Back in Taxes 1 week ago:
Socialize risks and losses, privatize profits.
- Comment on Bet you don't remember this 2 weeks ago:
I know certain roles can be embarrassing for an actor but come on man! You have a job and you did a job. Yeah it’s not great but if you laugh about it, people will respect you much more than if you shun it.
Everyone pays their dues.

Warp me!
- Comment on NPR Sunday Story - an approachable story on why privacy matters and the invasiveness of surveillance capitalism - Lemmy.World 2 weeks ago:
Facts have a liberal bias.
- Comment on HBO Max’s Password-Sharing Crackdown Will Start in Earnest in September 2 weeks ago:
Tbh I don’t know for sure but read several articles about the use of “practical effects” vs CGI.
- Comment on Blamed for Steam games ban, Mastercard encourages censorship during Riot Games VCT livestreams 2 weeks ago:
If I make one it will likely be on lemmynsfw.com. I doubt that there is an instance specifically for porn games though.
- Comment on Blamed for Steam games ban, Mastercard encourages censorship during Riot Games VCT livestreams 2 weeks ago:
I don’t log into my Lemmynsfw account much these days. But I know that a lot of “copy” subreddits were made in the days after the API shutoff. So it very well could be a community already but I’m too lazy to look.
- Comment on Blamed for Steam games ban, Mastercard encourages censorship during Riot Games VCT livestreams 2 weeks ago:
Did you mean “make it”? If you made it already, link the community!
- Comment on HBO Max’s Password-Sharing Crackdown Will Start in Earnest in September 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I felt like the only reason for it was to get the effects team an Emmy. Well deserved, but felt forced.
No pun intended.
- Comment on Blamed for Steam games ban, Mastercard encourages censorship during Riot Games VCT livestreams 2 weeks ago:
There was an entire subreddit devoted to porn games but it’s not made it over to Lemmy.
Maybe once I get laid off I’ll start a community
- Comment on HBO Max’s Password-Sharing Crackdown Will Start in Earnest in September 2 weeks ago:
Ngl the first time I heard about “The Pitt” I read it as “The Pit” and was super confused why it features a hospital.
Great show though.
- Comment on A "political blackmail" – the EU Parliament is pressing for new mandatory scanning of your private chats 2 weeks ago:
You got to love conservatives and how they both use child pornography as a cudgel to attack drag queens (because they know their voters hate both drag queens and child predators) and then also protect their leaders because they know any accusation will hurt their political career.
- Comment on YSK about Changing your Profile Picture to Clippy 2 weeks ago:
Honestly…yeah. I’ve been trying to push that boulder but I can’t be the only one.
Very few people are willing to break rank because the system is working for them for now.
- Comment on THIS is always the correct response 2 weeks ago:
Honestly, this is the best response. If you’re out dating to find a partner, it doesn’t make sense to stay friends with someone you were interested in, unless you have other interests.
- Comment on stupid sexy apples 2 weeks ago:
You might have a superpower.
A LOT of honey in grocery stores are actually syrup but due to capitalism, there really is no real way to tell for sure.
If you are allergic, but won’t die, from having honey, you might be able to make a guide for those of us that actually want real honey but have trouble trusting asshole companies.
- Comment on GitHub CEO delivers stark message to developers: Embrace AI or get out. 3 weeks ago:
they get millions
Exactly their job. Their job is to take the blame. In exchange, they get millions to move on to someone else.
