I assume half a pound of M&Ms would destroy me. (I have no idea how heavy a pound is)
- Comment on I had a random (probably dumb) idea: Given the whole Discord Drama going on, what if there was a Discord alternative, but in the style of Lemmy? 2 days ago:
No irc is not discord like. It lacks the most basic features.
- Comment on Discord roll out global age verification system, including an "age inference" model that runs in the background 3 days ago:
I used to be of the opinion that searching history for issues was the best thing. But ive seen how many issues it creates and think its not worth it. Software is constantly being updated and the post from 6months ago is likely a completely different issue even if it sounds similar to yours.
Having access to real time individualized support for free is actually awesome from a user perspective. For devs they are able to let the community handle a lot of the requests and oversee that terrible advice isnt being shared.

You’re booming. Discord search is fine but you dont even need to search. Seeking assistance is easy > join post > get notified when someone answers you.
Compared to forums where you have to create and account post an introduction then deep dive on the forum to make sure your question hasnt been asked before then write up s big detailed post only for the mod to remove your post because it was in the wrong place.
- Comment on Beyond All Reason 5 days ago:
Love beyond all reason and have put many hours into that game but physically can’t play it due to RSI. I want to play it so bad Ive switching to doing all my computer work left handed to fix it and it seems to be working.
- Comment on Spotify changes developer mode API to require premium accounts, limits test users 6 days ago:
Turn off smart shuffle. It tries to guess the songs you actually like instead of randomly selecting out of 2000. Also if Spotify were biasing smaller artists (they aren’t) that would be a good thing.
- Comment on The new Microsoft copilot key is impossible to properly remap. 6 days ago:
I reckon the co pilot key is used more than the key it replaced. I dont even know what that key did.
- Comment on Sony Patents System to Generate AI Podcasts in the Voices of Your Favorite PlayStation Characters - IGN 1 week ago:
All Sony’s characters are boring and generic what could they possibly talk about.
- Comment on Finland to introduce 'green wave' automated system for emergency vehicles 1 week ago:
This sounds really hard to coordinate. If they can pull it off that will be huge.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Is this bait? There is hardly any hostility here towards the software and the Lemmy devs want to push the world towards being an authoritarian hellscape. If anything they dont get enough shit.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
What’s a good peertube instance that federates with a lot? I tried tldvids but its got like 2 regular uploaders and i cant find most channels I search for.
- Comment on Games you really want to play, but can't or won't? 1 week ago:
A ton of PvP games that I can’t play because I’ll want to get good which means spending a ton of time then once I’m good I won’t want to play anything else. Counter strike, StarCraft.
- Comment on Twodaloo 1 week ago:
I think YouTuber William Osman brought a house that came with a bathroom with two toilets facing each other like a spaghetti western standoff. So your perfect bathroom is out there.
- Comment on Proton's predictions for the internet, 2025 reviewed and 2026 projections 1 week ago:
Imagine not predicting 2026 the year of the linux desktop
- Comment on Mamdani to kill the NYC AI chatbot caught telling businesses to break the law— New York mayor says terminating the ‘unusable’ bot will help close a budget gap 1 week ago:
No because the expectation is they won’t do common sense issues so its based when thry finally do
- Comment on Mamdani to kill the NYC AI chatbot caught telling businesses to break the law— New York mayor says terminating the ‘unusable’ bot will help close a budget gap 2 weeks ago:
The popular tankie influences have soured a bit on him and that sentiment flows down. I think Mamdani said against the protestors shouting globalize the intifada outside of a synagogue which pissed off tankies.
- Comment on Mamdani to kill the NYC AI chatbot caught telling businesses to break the law— New York mayor says terminating the ‘unusable’ bot will help close a budget gap 2 weeks ago:
Based. Good to see him going for common sense easy issues to keep people engaged while he works on the harder to tackle issues.
- Comment on I’m outta my depth 2 weeks ago:
I feel nothing due to this being constant escalation for what feels like forever now. I have to tell myself this is fucking insane and we are watching a huge shift that completely upends the balance of power in my region.
Watching my local news feels so quiet there is like 1hr of actual news every month and the rest is just slop reporting on what peoples favourite ice cream is, carcrashes or violent crime.
- Comment on Wifi 15 gigabytes per second — Researchers demo invention 2 weeks ago:
WiFi is getting so good but i kinda dont want it to. I like wiring up the computers in my house but now its like WiFi is good enough it doesnt provide any advantages.
- Comment on US controls 90% of AI chip markets and produces far more advanced AI models than China, yet it has lost much of manufacturing capacity needed to build at scale and depends on rivals for materials 2 weeks ago:
Yes? Its pretty clear American models are ahead of Chinese ones. A drone swarm like that isnt really technically impressive AI usage. You should see the US military integration if you think coordinating 200 drones is impressive.
- Comment on Real and True 2 weeks ago:
Idk maybe its a personal preference difference but i like my eyes to be level with the middle of the monitor and i dont like to have to tilt my head up or down to see another screen.
- Comment on r/Silksong joins Lemmy 2 weeks ago:
Indie-ver.se is a great domain name
- Comment on Real and True 2 weeks ago:
Yeah thats exactly the kind of setup that needs to be cracked down on.
- Comment on Real and True 2 weeks ago:
Using your laptop as an extra screen should be illegal. Its so ergonomically horrible
- Comment on 3 weeks ago:
I played FH4 and progression was quite easy I had good cars and cool cars early on but there were still cars to grind for.
- Comment on Man uses 99 phones to trick Google Maps into thinking there’s a traffic jam to prove a big point 3 weeks ago:
Plant packages of 99 phones along your route so people are redirected away.
- Comment on Microsoft CEO warns that we must 'do something useful' with AI or they'll lose 'social permission' to burn electricity on it 3 weeks ago:
Its funny because this is an admission that hes not actually done anything interesting which is a complete pivot from the last two years of him screaming about how good AI is for the last 2 years.
- Comment on If only 3 weeks ago:
I miss getting home from rugby Saturday morning jumping on my bike and going house to house knocking on the door and in the most polite voice asking if my friend could please come hangout and stay the night. Each house the party size would increase then id finally get back to my house and all my friends would crowd around a tiny TV and we’d play wwe with a multi tap, 4 player splitscreen or die tries on a single player game for like 1 or 2 hours before my mum came and told us we had had enough time in front of screens and needed to go play outside.
Fun times
- Comment on Wine 11 runs Windows apps in Linux and macOS better than ever 3 weeks ago:
What you are referring to as “office” is actually copilot/Microsoft365 and i forgot the rest of the copypasta
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
You could try but I feel its needlessly complex and antagonistic. You can get close enough to your goal but filtering American politics out by blocking news/politics communties and then setting up a non america news and non american politics community boom you’ve pretty much got an “america free instance”
Once shared blocklists get added I feel this will be easier to setup and distribute.
