  Clearly you’re not a fan of the Wakaliwood Ugandan movie Who Killed Captain Alex and its video joker

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A new family starting⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you have ANY Canadian ancestor, you are likely a Canadian citizen as a result of recent changes in Canadian law⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I strongly believe that the yellow should have all been Canadian. It’s dumb having to drive over Maine when heading to the east coast if you don’t want to go through the US

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A belated Christmas gift to R6 Siege!⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Released today: Rainbow Six: Siegeier

  It’s exactly the same game but the in game economy has been reset so you’ll be forced to get the privilege to buy all of your addons one more time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rob Pike Goes Nuclear over GenAI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  What the hell even is that email? What purpose does sending a fully generated, unprompted email like that out even serve? Is it just a bizarre advertising campaign for their platform? If they wanted to send a sincère thank you message then they could have written it themselves rather than that shallow slop that benefits nobody

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X's Generative AI Image Edit Tool Ignites Backlash — Users Fear Image Misuse⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is about artists posting their artwork so I’m not sure where else they’d be expected to post it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨excellent⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah it actually looks like someone tried to recreate iOS’s design in PS or CSS but it’s noticeably off

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TikTok Deal Done And It’s Somehow The Shittiest Possible Outcome, Making Everything Worse⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  So will Americans have their own great firewalled tiktok then? Wondering about how content will be shared between the US and the rest of the Anglosphere

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨TikTok allegedly monitoring users’ Grindr activity, digital rights group claims⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I know you’re on iOS but for anyone else who’s on Android, TrackerControl is a great easy to use app for this purpose

  But for iOS OP, maybe AdGuard would help?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low spec gaming: A community for your low end gaming system and needs.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This’ll be a popular community soon enough given the price of computer parts right now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self-harm⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Whoa whoa whoa, this is a Christian shitposts community. Watch your language please

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do some website logins have the username and password entry on different pages?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol I’ve never heard that term but it actually does kind of work. Auth is something that is very standardised with it’s communication between the FE and BE so the login flow could be compared to a ceremony. Kind of a silly way to describe it though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cops hassling Santa for not having papers to be in the US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Is the political situation in the USA a shitpost to you OP? You’re finding it comedic?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm gonna need a walk-in shower soon enough⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m guessing a step in where they have to step over the side of the bath tub

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit is going down⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a web analytics term for users who load a page and then leave quickly without continuing to browse. In this case its likely people loading specific reddit threads from Google/whatever and then leaving after they found the information they needed

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Doom Studio id Software Unionizes To Secure AI Protections, Benefits: ‘We See The Direction The Industry Is Headed’⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Man, I hope the general software industry unionise as well. Its rough out there right now

  OP has the corn meant nothing to you?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit is an AI chatbot and 5 mins games app now⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was playing games on reddit but only the dumb and weird flash games they’d have in the sidebar that users would submit instead of advertisements (back in like 2013). I miss those days

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Make me feel like a man⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Now that’s a proper Dark Souls weapon

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The amount of ghost towns in the US and elsewhere will skyrocket in our lifetimes and become a normalized thing⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There won’t be an explicit decision to up and leave to create a new city, don’t get me wrong. What I expect is that these cities will continue to make the cheapest, politically convenient attempts at solving the issue which will only lead to it being more and more expensive to live there comfortably. People will naturally leave to other neighbouring cities or towns that are in less of a dire situation

  Water is not that expensive even shipped

  Not right now but as it becomes scarce in the area, that cost will go up exponentially. As the cost rises, people who can’t afford it will start leaving - lowering the incentive to ship water out that way (a
  smaller market). That further pushes up the cost forcing more people to leave until it snowballs into a ghost city

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The amount of ghost towns in the US and elsewhere will skyrocket in our lifetimes and become a normalized thing⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem repeatedly seems to come down to a decision of “cost now, money saved later” versus “money saved now, much bigger cost later”.

  The choice always seems to be the latter

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ammu-Nation (San Andreas) ?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Is the US even a real place?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Waiting for Capitalism to collapse, so we can get this over with so we can reverse climate change and have nice memes, technology and the good end⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, in this theoretical situation it would. Ignoring the fact that it’s metaphorical, it’s sort of like saying we shouldn’t build windmills or nuclear power plants because the construction produces co2

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Xbox 360 came out 20 years ago⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I miss my stack of PlayStation magazine PS2 demo discs

  I was taught BEDMAS as well in school (Ontario, Canada)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, it’s sort of an odd part of the threadiverse. Every instance calculates based on what they’re notified of which means the age of the server along with what other instances it’s federated with impacts the count

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  During the initial reddit migration, Lemmy/Kbin had a larger active userbase than it does now. It fell off a bit after a little while, though its slowly creeping back up there with a more committed community.

  But basically there were more users to upvote beans at that point

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GPU prices are coming to earth just as RAM costs shoot into the stratosphere - Ars Technica⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What are you running that needs more than 32Gb? I’m only just barely being bottlenecked by my 24Gb when running games at 4k

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I heard that this offer applies to more than just turkeys⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know about the US but in Canada, security can’t even actually physically stop you in any way so no need to run!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Immich Is Now Stable!⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Immich’s use of AI is arguably one of the most suitable cases for the technology and it runs entirely on your own device. I get the hate for AI but this ain’t it
