90% of games on steam are drm free. The only “drm” for most is a single dll that loads the steam overlay and cloud API. Remove the dll and the game is drm free.
Hell most games also support just adding a txt file to the root folder with the appID which just disables the “drm”.
Outside of extremely large triple A games you basically don’t have a single game on steam that has mandatory drm.

The nice thing is the industry self regulates pretty well. Cause word of mouth reviews can absolutely sink a sex toy company pretty damn fast.
Now the sex supplement industry is the problem child
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 21 hours ago:
Toxic positivity is how you get the worse shit. If you can’t call someone else a fucker and move on then there’s too much protection for the truly deranged.
There’s a large gap between being rude and being Hitler but many places online seem to forget this and treat all forms of negativity as equally extreme and it just results in the worse psychopaths who understand how to mask to have the loudest platform.

The majority of shit stains I see are from .ml while .world is a close second.

Either .world or .ml
Both are basically the two largest sources of toxic people.

Would still be using .world but they don’t allow VPNs. So fuck .world

It’s a tiny mistake that literally has no effect at all on the over all message of the video. It’s a fun “huh” moment to realize what’s actually happening. But nothing more.

To be fair I put in all my smart lights once 7 years ago haven’t touched them a single time in that entire span. Took an hour to set up.
And now my alarm turns on lights which helps me wake up :D

Basically none, if you want user friendly macro and layers your basically stuck to windows. That or your doing bullshit jank that barely works, breaks frequently and requires way too much effort for no good results.
Its one of the better examples of Linux being dog shit at being user friendly.
The most common excuse I see is it’s not safe and secure so it’s not supported. Or you need to just use an abandoned app from a random GitHub that’s 9 years old only works on x11 and requires a blood sacrifice.

- Comment on Google Confirms Non-ADB APK Installs Will Require Developer Registration 1 week ago:
Honestly at this point they actually likely need to be EVEN MORE strict to deal with how bad the app store is and how many scam apps are floating around.
My grand father has been given like 30 scam apks to install via email that we’re just crypto ransomware basically, and he’s had to reformat his phone at least 10 times this year from installing scam shit from the playstore it self too.
Both the playstore AND scammers are target android like crazy
There’s basically no way to crack down on it short of what they are doing and frankly it’s still not enough.
Anyone who thinks this is just Google being evil is massive fucking out of touch with the reality of what elderly and less it savvy people have to deal with. It fucking SUCKS.

Forced arbitration tends to backfire massively when you have something of this scale because of everyone starts doing it. The cost of that forced arbitration is more than what the lawsuits would have been without it. It’s a big reason why like steam got rid of it. If you get too many people trying to go after you, it’s just not worth it and costs too much.

Any time your account gets locked for age reason it requires it. So if you have never had an age lock it’s unlikely you had to do it.
It’s as easy as someone reporting you for being underage with no proof or even just saying “I’m 14 and what is this” as a meme to get locked tho.
Hell the auto flag system can hit you if you just talk like a kid sometimes.

Modern higher end ai can easily manage all that trivially at this point is the problem. Sure most people are still using at this point mutiable generations older ai on under powered hardware with little to no skill with the ai in the first place.
But iv already started seeing people using the newest stuff making the rounds and it’s not and day difference in quality.
Like the stuff released these last few months is just fucking wild. We are well past the point that you can “tell because some of the pixels” if the person making the picture has enough horsepower to throw at it and some skill with the tools.
It’s quickly becoming a really big problem. And that’s not even getting into the new video stuff. Which is not quite as bad but fuck it’s like one good generation from being there.

English dubbed anime is routinely one of the worse sub options. Commonly hear that German and Spanish dubs are always good quality by comparison.
Iv always chocked it up to anime is still not treated with any fucking respect in America.

On a serious note if you have a really bad cold, the magic wand pressed between your eyes while your face down will drain THE FUCK out of you sinuses and basically instantly clear out your head.
I suffer frequently from bad allergies bought the magic wand originally as a sex toy. Figured one day while suffering from a head so packed full of mucus that I wonder if it would help
HOLY FUCK DOES IT HELP

Any sufficiently large group has child predators. It’s not just a discord problem.
It’s easier to just say humanity has a child predator problem.

I mean if you say your under 14 on discord your account is perma banned first offence if that message gets reported.
People need to fucking learn to report instead of just ignoring messages. This even extends outside of discord.
Every game, message app, forum ever that iv seen. The reason fucking 99% of shit goes unmoderated is because people don’t fucking report shit. They just bitch about it, block the person and move on.
Blocking and ignoring a reportable problem is why this shit goes unmoderated.
Assuming of course mods are doing their job. But when shit is automated like discord… STOP BLOCKING AND START REPORTING HOLY FUCK.
Yeah there’s a billion false reports that slow down the action of mods, but fuck if I see another person say they don’t bother reporting cause people don’t get punished instantly I’m going to freak the fuck out.
