I’ll gladly pay more to not have to deal with Epic’s endless fucking captchas.

Is that guy supposed to be Dylan?
- Comment on Control Resonant - Announcement Trailer | PS5 Games 1 day ago:
I don’t think there’s any sense to be made of it, really. But somehow still really well written and produced.
- Comment on How feasible would it be to host Mastodon, Pixelfed, Lemmy, Friendica, or Matrix over Tor/I2P? 1 day ago:
I’d probably choose somewhere outside of France. Hetzner probably a better bet.

Bruuuuuhhh I’m so stoked

No endless lists. Just a fast decision.
I mean I could click on the first title on Netflix and quit scrolling. But it’s not what I want to watch. That’s why I scroll. You’re suggesting your app knows exactly what I want to watch, every time, based on some very basic input, and I don’t believe that, and I’m not willing to install it to find out.
The problem with Netflix (and every other platforms) is that they have this massive library of thousands of titles but they just show you the same fucking content over and over again.
If you had something that simply surfaced different titles, I could see that alone being useful.

I find that people on the internet are largely incapable of level-headed discussions.

Start a discussion, debate, or ponder about whether water is wet
Do we really need more petty debates? 😅
- Comment on I bought an Ender 3 V3 (corexz) recently, and have been having bed adhesion issues. Please help me interpret this bed adhesion test result 3 days ago:
- Are you using the filament that came with it? Because it’s horrendous.
- Look up the "Creality hotend fix"
- Throw some Elmer’s Stick glue or similar on that bed before firing it up.
- Comment on Why ActivityPub over Nostr? - function only 4 days ago:
Mostly cultural, with a strong focus from NOSTR appearing to be crypto scams.

So they’re changing the prices on the tag on the shelf as people walk up to them? And then doing the same at checkout?
- Comment on [deleted] 5 days ago:
Uhhhh how? Are they just not posting item prices anymore?

No tangible difference.

A write-off is just a bookkeeping manouver that means
No. A write-off is nothing more than a company expense. It’s a deduction from their income.

- Comment on Rebble · Core Devices Keeps Stealing Our Work 3 weeks ago:
I had one ordered before but the more you look at the specific language this guy uses, the more clear it becomes that he was not in it for anyone but himself. The community exists to finance his pet project.
- Comment on Mastodon CEO steps down as the social network restructures 3 weeks ago:
Articles are incentivized to elaborate beyond what is even remotely necessary, link back to no one but themselves themselves, repeatedly, and to serve ads and extract personal information for sale while they’re doing it.
So you’ll have to excuse some of us looking for the tl;dr
- Comment on Windows 11 to add an AI agent that runs in background with access to personal folders, warns of security risk 3 weeks ago:
I’ve got an old Mac I’ve managed to get running Sequoia but due to Apple dropping support for Intel, it’s running on borrowed time.
- Comment on Valve's new hardware will NOT be loss leaders 4 weeks ago:
Hard disagree. I think that’s exactly who they’re going after. That’s why they added all the console features like CEC, wake on BT, background updates, etc. etc. and why they gave it a controller-first interface.

How does community-run servers prevent them from writing off their losses?

Thank you for not lying about that
- Comment on The Future of Advertising Is AI Generated Ads That Are Directly Personalized to You 5 weeks ago:
Thing is, if you’re bombarded by ads for a specific product, it means that company is spending a fortune on advertising. That is, the money their customers are paying them. I’m other words, the customers of those products are being ripped off.
- Comment on The Future of Advertising Is AI Generated Ads That Are Directly Personalized to You 5 weeks ago:
They’ve been doing that for years. I’ve audited my own “likes” for years and found a bunch of BS. And we roasted one of our friends for years because he “liked” Miller Lite.
- Comment on The Future of Advertising Is AI Generated Ads That Are Directly Personalized to You 5 weeks ago:
If company A has an ad that’s a good target and pays $20 and company B has an ad that’s a bad target but pays $100, which one are they going to show you?

I didn’t say he shared the files. I linked to the documentary in the comment you replied to, but on PeerTube.

He hooked his laptop up to school servers and was copying all the data on them.

I dunno man, the problem with most private servers is that they’re just that. I don’t know where they are or who is hosting them. I only know where mine is.
