I like to make extra rice to turn into fried rice.
And then I realize I don’t really like fried rice and I freeze that.

Microsoft should replace “content sharing” with their original idea from the Zune… Squirting.

- Comment on Judge orders Anna’s Archive to delete scraped data; no one thinks it will comply 1 week ago:
The court order, which was previously reported by TorrentFreak, was issued by Judge Michael Watson in US District Court for the Southern District of Ohio. “Plaintiff has established that Defendant crashed its website, slowed it, and damaged the servers, and Defendant admitted to the same by way of default,” the ruling said.
US court. Where is Anna’s Archive located?
Because with the state of America right now, every country should be giving the US Courts the finger. We’re pretty much a rogue nation now.

- Comment on Meta is closing down three VR studios as part of its metaverse cuts 1 week ago:
My brother in arms, my heart goes to you. I know it sucks.
Never fall in love with your work, ever. Metaverse and VR has always been a neat niche piece of tech.
As a dev, make the thing for that money, and always be ready to jump ship.
- Comment on Meta is closing down three VR studios as part of its metaverse cuts 1 week ago:
I remember when Amazon went all-in on gaming. Everyone was skeptical, and they partnered up with so many Asian companies.
Then they pulled out. Then they pulled back in. And now they’re kinda in a weird place.
- Comment on Meta is closing down three VR studios as part of its metaverse cuts 1 week ago:
Microsoft too.
They flip flop over if gaming is important to them all the time.
- Comment on Meta is closing down three VR studios as part of its metaverse cuts 1 week ago:
I’m actually kinda angry. There was a lot of money being thrown at this metaverse thing, and I wanted to milk that sweet Facebook money for as long as I can.

- Comment on Microsoft may soon allow IT admins to uninstall Copilot 1 week ago:
People don’t realize how difficult it is.
Not only do you have to do a lot of feature replacement (getting off of teams and using zulip and jitsi. Getting off of outlook and using Zimbra. Using next cloud over whatever the hell Microsoft’s version is)…
You also have to deal with all the Microsoft chucklefuck IT people who never touched a command line before. The push back I had in previous companies is lazy IT folks who don’t want to learn anything their Microsoft certification didn’t teach them.
- Comment on Digg launches its new Reddit rival to the public 1 week ago:
Silly question. Is Reddit still banning comments that say Lemmy?
I don’t have an account.
- Comment on Dragon Age veteran says scrapped Anthem Next "could have been" up there with No Man's Sky's legendary turnaround 1 week ago:
I don’t think we played the game because Anthem was boring. I enjoyed being Iron Man but after an hour. But after that, it was kinda same ol’ for the next few hours.
I had more fun with Suicide Squad, because the city was awesome and the story was at least passable.
I did like the first hour - no question. But I think Anthem needed to cook some more. A lot more.
- Comment on Dragon Age veteran says scrapped Anthem Next "could have been" up there with No Man's Sky's legendary turnaround 1 week ago:
Agreed!
NMS kept listening to feedback for years before it turned around, slowly building up good faith with each free release.
But let’s say Anthem Next magically turned it around. All that good faith will be gone when EA will try to shoehorn more looter shooter microtransaction BS and fuck everything up over and over again.

- Comment on Windows users keep losing files to OneDrive, and many don't know why 1 week ago:
Yep! My windows 10 is not hooked up to a real Microsoft account. It tries to force me to create an account every few months, which I laugh at.
I made the mistake a few years ago on my win 10 gaming tower and creating an account to play Xbox live, and suddenly, I was getting that garbage one drive shit.
- Comment on Windows users keep losing files to OneDrive, and many don't know why 1 week ago:
Dropbox has a policy about two years ago that all of your data will be shared with AI, no opt-outs.
I immediately cancelled my plan and dropped to the free service, which I use to backup photos of my poop.

- Comment on Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney argues banning Twitter over its ability to AI-generate pornographic images of minors is just 'gatekeepers' attempting to 'censor all of their political opponents' 1 week ago:
Because it’s easier for these psychopaths to believe that there’s a cage of children in some random pizza restaurant basement rather than believe a billionaire has a group of children in their mcmansions.

Asbestos. Lead. Microplastics.
They’re not to blame directly, but they’re letting their shit thoughts run wild.

- Comment on Stack Overflow in freefall: 78 percent drop in number of questions 2 weeks ago:
I was contributing to SO in 2014-2017 when my job wanted our engineers to be more “visible” online.
I was in the top 3% and it made me realize how incredibly small the community was. I was probably answering like 5 questions a week. It wasn’t hard. For some perspective, I’m making like 4-5 posts on Lemmy A DAY.
What made me really pissed was how often a new person would give a really good answer, then some top 1% chucklefuck would literally take that answer, rewrite it, and then have it appear as the top answer. And that happened to me constantly. But again, I didn’t care since I’m just doing this to show my company I’m a “good lil engineer”.
I stopped participating because of how they treated new users. And around 2020(?), SO made a pledge to be not so douchy and actually allow new users to ask questions. But that 1% chucklefuck crew was still allowed to wave their dicks around and stomp on people’s answers. So yeah, less “Duplicate questions”, more “This has been answered already [link to their own answer that they stole]”.
So you still had the most sweaty people control how things work. And you can’t grow a community like that.
- Comment on Raspberry Pis are cheaper than Mini PCs again 2 weeks ago:
Sorry, stupid question because I don’t pay attention to embedded hardware stuff. Not at all trying to be offensive or start anything. I really am ignorant.
In the software space, many FOSS run for-profit to keep the open-source version funded.
What’s different in this situation?
