  No new features… but I like new features. Add new features every week maintenance burden is not real if you forget they exist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Your body, my choice:" Hate and harassment towards women spreads online⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  when the most visible time men speak up about it is when they insert themselves into a conversation about women.

  That’s not true, its just the only time you notice. It was a completely relevant to the comment. Do you really think you’d respond like this if a women replied with a relevant thing that happens to them? You could have just agreed that it’s crazy how far religious zealotry.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Mastodon reply link] Even the ActivityPub author "supports" anyone who makes a game the implements that protocol⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Activity pub creators want all these different uses for the protocol but then reject the feature requests required to make ap viable for those uses.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Manjaro Linux want your system info with their new data collection tool⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Doesn’t seem bad to me. As long as they aren’t hiding what they collect and provide an easy opt out option.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨She-Ra Lives!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you have a link to that evidence? I remember reading a while back about a find in South America that had female hunters but would be interested in reading more evidence about it being widespread.

  Only pc keyboard needs wires

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Magic Keyboard and Mouse now use USB-C!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But what about the magnets?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Magic Keyboard and Mouse now use USB-C!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks to EU regulations the keyboard is limited to 20gbps data rates instead of the 40gbps that it would be doing over Thunderbolt. I hope your happy now that apple users suffer peasant speeds.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube tests removing viewer counts — here’s what we know⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Its got a lot of those types for sure, but it has the most normal content of any alt video platform.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Conversations like this are why I want more people, especially "normies", in the Fediverse⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The thing is that “normies”(I hate the term) weren’t on reddit when it was the size of lemmy. The only experience they have is joining it after it had 10 years of development reached critical mass of users.

  So we are stuck being compared to an impossible standard. When I compare Lemmy to old reddit lemmy hands down blows it out of the water. Old reddit had cp and racism on the front page every single day for years.It was hard to use and hostile to new users.

  I’ve seen lemmy pop up in search engine posts already which was cool to see. Ive also seen lots of high quality intelligent posts granted they are only tech related but we will grow.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A TikTok alternative called Loops is coming for the fediverse | Users own their content, and Loops doesn’t sell or provide videos to third-party advertisers or train AI on them. It will be open source⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s scary how many of the mainstream platforms this joke could apply to.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A TikTok alternative called Loops is coming for the fediverse | Users own their content, and Loops doesn’t sell or provide videos to third-party advertisers or train AI on them. It will be open source⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Im guessing it’s going to be missing all the features that make tiktok popular like duets and pedophilia.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should I or should I not use/bother with using Linux? (READ THE WHOLE POST)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Just by reading the first sentence I can tell you that you will enjoy Linux. Don’t worry about all the technical stuff it seems complicated because you don’t know it. Just install Linux and use it and you will learn what all that stuff means. Since you’re building a new PC you got nothing to lose from trying out a few different Linux distros.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨All-optical switch device paves way for faster fiber-optic communication⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Its smart light, it knows where it needs to go.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Factorio 2.0 and Factorio: Space Age DLC are out now⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s 4x the size of the base game. It introduces tons of mechanics. I can see myself putting thousands of hours into this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My blog now has Lemmy comments⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is really cool. Can you add more detail on how to set this up to the blogpost?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Loops by Pixelfed • Public beta (hopefully) launching in 10 hours⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Finally a place to post my tom shelby sigma edits.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thoughts on HumHub?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you want this social media to be for your family to use only with family members or for them to use with family and beyond?

  Revolt could be good as a local family group chat if you like the discord style. You’ve probably already tried it but Pixelfed/mastodon/misskey sound like the easiest to get family on board with and seem like they would be good family social media platforms IMO.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft’s more secure Windows Recall feature can also be uninstalled by users⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Without Linux users advocating for Linux it would never reach the average consumer. We don’t have a marketing department we have to grassroots that shit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Warlord Straight Out of "Mad Max" Says Elon Musk Remotely Shut Down His Cybertruck⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Nah I’m not gonna educate myself. I’m getting mad on behalf of the warlord weather he wants me to or not.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Warlord Straight Out of "Mad Max" Says Elon Musk Remotely Shut Down His Cybertruck⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  WTF let the warlord use what he brought and paid for. Stop eula roofing him and let him Cook.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Exploding pagers and walkie-talkies are a reminder of how easily your devices can be hacked – here’s how to make sure they are safe.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I wouldn’t call that attack “easy”. If someone wants to go through that much effort to kill me they can save themselves the work and stab me outside pizzahut on Saturday night

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s the most overhyped tech trend right now?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I know but I expected there to be more cool apps and less shit ones. I’m disappointed by what mobiles have become.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s the most overhyped tech trend right now?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Mobile apps. They have so much money and users and it still feels like there isn’t as many cool mobile apps as there are cool computer program.

  Mobile apps often feel like a web browser with the URL bar.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows NT vs. Unix: A design comparison⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Awesome read, I’m switching to NT 3.1

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I want an AI TV that blocks all forms of advertising.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I just want a good quality TV without a smart os built in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'M ABOUT TO BEAM⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Bro the wreckage was only 4 stories high! Where did the rest of the building go!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Unbanned⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Where others see a dumpster thread Track shovel sees a playground.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Cities: Skylines II' Found a Solution for High Rents: Get Rid of Landlords⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah fps is fine in game but simulation speed is terrible. Your game sim speed will grind to a crawl once you place a bit of high density.

  Games got custom maps and assets and is building up a range of great mods.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Civilization 7 dev on Ages system and series shakeup: "It's going to be the hardest thing for fans to get adjusted to"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I never moved from civ 5 to civ 6. Every time I try civ 6 it feels awful and looks like a mobile game. Ive got little hope for civ 7 and since it ships with Denovo I doubt I’ll ever try it.
