Same reason everything was XTREAM in the 90s, or O-Matic in the 50s. Or “i” in the 2000s.

This game looks cool but is it better than elite damgerous? I don’t have time for either anyway, haha
- Comment on DI.DAY is a Movement to Encourage People to Ditch Big Tech 3 days ago:
I’ve been wanting to start this movement in my town. I even know a good hangout place with a lot of open minded folks where I could maybe hold classes on it…I just don’t know enough.
I wonder if its worth it though. Even if I get a bunch of people to move to Foss only and get away from the corpos, there’s still flock cameras and everyone else’s phones watching and recording our every move. Hard to win.

Literally millions (billions?) of amazing games made before 2018 are waiting to be played! I wonder if future gamers will shun the 2020 era of gaming like the disco era

People spend 2 hours making an llm spit out some shit thats mediocre instead of spending that time learning. And they consider it a win.
I do admit all this shit has made me want give up on music or ever learning programming becauze every other person will just prompt it and be better than me in the short term. sigh. depressing times.

They 100% believe all the protesters are bussed in with pallets of bricks waiting for them. My co workers 100% believe this.
Its fucking sickening. And they all have kids, teaching them all this fox news hate and racism daily.
Sometimes I truly just want to leave here.
- Comment on The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K 1 week ago:
We didnt have one for a long time.
Then we got one for free. So we use it for movies and some gaming together, but we dont have any streaming subscriptions.
I agree it’d be better to not have. But im into old console gaming so I like to have a couple tvs.
Its good to balance it with reading and exercising of course! But movie nights are fun.

My work/manager has the best possible way of managing: get your work done, dont make drama, work as little or much as you need. We have to try to get 45 hours but almost no one does or they pad their timesheet. But then there’s weeks you travel and work 60 hours (but its actually work not wasting time)
Works great for people like me who are useless from 1 pm to about 3 pm, but really able to get a lot of work done from 5 to 7 ish. Unless youre missing meetings, no one cares where you are. I could go to Hawaii tomorrow with my laptop and do the exact same work I do now.
- Comment on YSK that a general strike is one of the most effective ways to push for change. There is a general strike in the works across the US for this Friday. 1 week ago:
Imo id respect someone more who set up local groups to start learning more about tech literacy and opposing the techocracy, rather than just skipping work and sitting at home.
The reason our rights are shit is because people would rather live with that then be homeless. No one here is going to strike with you. It would take all of Amazon to strike to make a difference. I think something more direct, like congregating outside of every politicians house and making their lives hell, would be much more effective than a strike against my employer who is one of the best in the region.

But 1 day of me not getting my work done isnt going to do a thing. Its a LOT more effective if people stop buying shit altogether from any corporate store as long as they can.

No idea. Guess ill sit on my ass friday and play video games at home and that will somehow make me a good lemmy protester.

This is what I commented elsewhere. We dont even need organized strikes. We need organized tech classes to get the general public out of the hands of the technofacist oligarchy. The reason they have power is 98% of the population is addicted to x, fb, insta, and being spied on their google phones 24/7 for ad revenue and surveillance, and people are fucking stupid about technology. They have no idea the billions corporations glean off them from their ignorant use of their phones.

I dont really get this. I actually like my workplace and my manager is an awesome guy. I’m supposed to just not do my work? Idg what that helps.
We need to cause pain to politicians and billionaires. I already dont use popular social media or shop at Amazon or Walmart. I dont have streaming. Im doing more than 98% of Americans already.
What would be FAR better than this are tech literacy classes to ween the idiot public off the techno corps. Get a few thousand people to quit streaming, using Amazon, and shutting all their phones off or at least all using vpns and ad blockers would be a huge revenue hit to corporations.
I guess I can work tomorrow then play video games at home after. I dont see how this helps.
