  Boost does as well, little chick popping out of an egg

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Looking for a good Lemmy mobile app⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Using boost, it’s fairly reliable and I enjoy it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Last Epoch players turn on the action RPG for announcing a paid DLC class, tanking its Steam reviews: 'go play Path of Exile instead'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s Runescape 3,except they are removing it all. Osrs has membership (effectively required for the game) and you can buy bonds so other players can buy membership with in game money. That’s it.

  My friend has ADHD and 300 tabs. I’m pretty sure they are related.

  I’m Aussie and work retail, people answer the question even when you don’t ask it.

  ‘whatcan I get for you today?’

  ‘good thank you’

  Not 10%? I thought tencents thing was they just have a 10% share in an absurd amount of stuff

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨dating profile⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  With literally 0 research I can confidently say the answer is yes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨These should be brought back⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My 2008 still has one. As far as I can tell it’s never been used, and the ash tray is pristine and unused, but it’s got one.

  This is age of empires 2 with runescape text

  I actively blow the smoke out at mosquitos I see in the hopes they get fucked up

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I hate it when people use pictures showing the condiments only on top of a hot dog.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah hi I make hotdogs as a job, instructions say all sauces on top. You want it changed, go fight corporate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They even do Price Discrimination on video games now⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I bitch about steam because it has issues. I don’t bitch about the others because they have issues severe enough I just don’t use them whereas steam is running anytime my laptop is running

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨28-pound electric motor delivers 1000 horsepower⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Every time I get a faster car I need better tyres so the wheels never spin… The fuck kind of tyres would I need to stop 1000hp at each wheel spinning?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PC Master Race⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You actually had to edit files? Outside of me breaking things first (yay mods) I’ve only had to edit 1 file ever, and that was mass effect 1 on an old and laptop that was uhh… not suitable for the task given to it.

  It’s likely that it falling into pieces made it stronger, spread out the energy of the impact

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft builds on Recall with Gaming Copilot — fails basic privacy tests⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It isn’t air gapped, I just have a program that can block internet access to anything running. My internet is bad enough I can tell when something is using almost anything, and I’ve blocked most windows processes. It’s just another check box to click

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft builds on Recall with Gaming Copilot — fails basic privacy tests⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Online connection? So I remove the internet from the thing and it just doesn’t work? Easy fix.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ChatGPT safety systems can be bypassed to get weapons instructions⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s really easy to make explosives. Making them stable and reliable is the hard part.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨kurzgesagt – AI Slop Is Killing Our Channel⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s an incredible amount of money in those offers. Years ago Linus Tech Tips got an offer of 100m, so I get why people take the money.

  Burgers are bigger, the other two are one or two bites. Burger is at least 3.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Explaining your traumatic past IRL feels so underwhelming compared to when a character in a movie or tv scene revealing their traumatic childhood.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I had the opposite experience. I was laughing about it and then realised no one else was.

  Oh, oops.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dinner is ready! ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  D, with G a very close second

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Fair enough, I use mine as basically a replacement for any other streaming platform, so it’s more about entertainment than raw usefulness.

  My sub list is ever growing, at about 150 now. I don’t watch a lot of what’s put out by them but that’s where I start when I want to watch something. The main YouTube feed is… Unreliable at best

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I watch a huge range, from 100 subs to 20m. I’ve spent years making a decent sub list to watch so I avoid most issues about trash content.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Super deep dive into games and their lore mostly, although the super long ones tend to be named like, ‘a quick retrospective of game’

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My subscribed has 1 row of shorts no matter how far I scroll, never adds more.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I regularly watch hour+ videos, and there’s quite a few 10+ hour videos I’ve enjoyed. Just gotta find the right people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a business with over 100 employees, if it wasn’t huge where would the employees be? His dropping thing always existed, he just got rich in the meantime.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Very dramatic shift" - Linus Tech Tips opens up about the channel's declining viewership⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I only pay them because I watch a stupid amount of YouTube. Hours a day, many more hours when not working.

  If those ads come back while I’m paying though, the flag flies.
