- Comment on Mozilla warns Germany could soon declare ad blockers illegal 1 day ago:
Great, but how could they possibly enforce it? It’s infeasible.
- Comment on Report: Microsoft's latest Windows 11 24H2 update breaks SSDs/HDDs, may corrupt your data 2 days ago:
I have literally never had one of these things happen to me before. I’m pretty sure people just make them up for clicks at this point.
- Comment on Caves of Qud wins the Hugo Award for Best Game or Interactive Work 3 days ago:
First screen is much more readable at a glance.
- Comment on FungUSS Enterprise 4 days ago:
Why is there so much mud on the base when it’s nowhere near the soil? Plus, these kinds of mushrooms don’t grow on logs.
- Comment on Perplexity offers to buy Google Chrome for $34.5 billion 1 week ago:
lol this number makes no sense. Minecraft was worth 4 billion a decade ago. Chrome is worth way more than 34
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 1 week ago:
This is what makes Librewolf better.Image
- Comment on Lemmy be like 1 week ago:
lol, you literally put words in the original commenter’s mouth:
I know you think this will harm you and everyone you know, but it’ll be much better if you just stay quiet instead of vocally opposing it
and now you’re incredulous about something similar being done to you? lame
- Comment on Lemmy be like 1 week ago:
Only because most of the people here don’t have the faintest idea what AI is or how it works.
- Comment on Lemmy be like 1 week ago:
I’m a lot more sick of the word ‘slop’ than I am of AI. Please, when you criticize AI, form an original thought next time.
- Comment on GitHub is no longer independent at Microsoft after CEO resignation 1 week ago:
Microsoft buying Github is the best example of the fox guarding the hen house that exists. Even better than an ad company making a web browser.
- Comment on Have you encountered this? 1 week ago:
Makes me wonder how many servers out their think their customers are being cheap because they only tipped X% when in reality they actually tipped 15% or whatever before tax.
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 1 week ago:
Shadow of Mordor is just so much fun to screw around in. Does a really good job making you feel badass
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 1 week ago:
You’re not the only one. I’ve beaten The 7th Saga more times than Chrono Trigger lol.
- Comment on Gen Z Is Cutting Back On Video Game Purchases 1 week ago:
I’ve been living under a rock. What happened to baseball?
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 1 week ago:
Star Wars Galaxies was kinda like that. No idea if it’s still playable though.
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 1 week ago:
My best friend and I used to spend summer afternoons trying to figure out the answers to all the riddles on the chests. We sucked at it but when we finally managed to crack one, the feeling was euphoric.
The music was awesome. I used to listen to the CD while I slept.
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 1 week ago:
Thief 2 is just incredible. Many games try, but none can dethrone the stealth game king.
And I totally forgot about Diddy Kong Racing, but yeah. It’s legitimately a better game than Mario Kart 64.
- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 1 week ago:
- Doom/Doom II. (The modding scene is still vibrant 30+ years later!)
- TIE Fighter.
- Diablo II.
- Comment on xkcd #3126: Disclaimer 1 week ago:
I always just google ‘em dash’ then ctrl+c it.
- Comment on Socially inept, introverted employees. How do you survive the workplace? Because I’m in dire need of some serious advice. 2 weeks ago:
They’re doing you a favor finding you a different position in the hospital. The ER is no place for an autistic introvert. I’ve had something similar happen to me and I was much happier with where I ended up.
- Comment on YSK that Gerrymandering allows politicians to choose their own voters. In many countries, it's illegal. Gerrymandering is common in the United States 2 weeks ago:
In my opinion there shouldn’t be districts at all. Too much potential for fuckery.
- Comment on GitHub CEO delivers stark message to developers: Embrace AI or get out. 2 weeks ago:
Learn how to code. It’s pretty rewarding.
- Comment on GitHub CEO delivers stark message to developers: Embrace AI or get out. 2 weeks ago:
I already got out in March when github decided to close my account because I didn’t want to involve my phone with my github account.
Codeberg has been a much more pleasant experience.
- Comment on A 2003 complaint about Half Life 2 2 weeks ago:
Not many people these days understand that Steam used to suck bad.
- Comment on The Age-Checked Internet Has Arrived 3 weeks ago:
That’s fine. The actual internet will still be here.
- Comment on mensa 3 weeks ago:
Apparently ultra-high-IQ people like to use comma splices too.
- Comment on RPGs that are optionally pacifist? 3 weeks ago:
Also forgot to mention the latest version has tiles support that looks like this: Image
So you don’t have to play with ASCII graphics. ;)
- Comment on RPGs that are optionally pacifist? 3 weeks ago:
Sil (specifically Sil-Q, the most modern fork) is a great Tolkien-esque roguelike in the vein of Angband where pacifism is a first-class citizen. You get a lot of XP just by observing hostiles from the shadows. I highly recommend it!
- Comment on Remembering Descent, the once-popular, fully 3D 6DOF shooter 3 weeks ago:
Descent II has maybe the most unique soundtrack I have ever heard in a game.
- Comment on Humans can be tracked with unique 'fingerprint' based on how their bodies block Wi-Fi signals 3 weeks ago:
95.5% accuracy is abysmal for any use case these people want to use it for
