people are busy and have lives. I used to think like you in my early 20s, but then my life got supercomplicated years later and I became the person I loathed… I finally understood

- Comment on 1 week ago:
its a fantastic idea. it allows for someone to stay on the platform of their choice while not being locked out of communicating with other people. if my family likes mastodon and I like lemmy, we can still share things… awesome!!
it was great when Twitter and Facebook had it during the beginning of their rise in the late 2000s, shame they decided locking in users to their platform was a better choice. at least we dont have to be on those platforms anymore 🙂
- Comment on Rainbow Six Siege Has Been Hacked Again, And Players Are Reportedly Getting 67-Day Bans 1 week ago:
I love siege but havent played in months due to arc raiders taking up all my free time now.
its incredibly disappointing to see how terrible support and security has been since the ten year anniversary dropped, but I dont know what the next option for ubisoft could be to fix this.
siege 2 has to be on the horizon with new security tools at some point, right?

- Comment on Arc raiders is a horrible game 2 weeks ago:
I’m sorry you aren’t enjoying it, I haven’t had this much fun playing a game in a long time.
the thrill of finding something important and then trying to extract without dying has been so much fun. perhaps try using voice chat to talk your way out of potentially violent situations? if i hear someone else, I start chatting and if I dont hear voice comms or one of the emotes you can use to communicate, I’ll let them know im shredding them on sight lol

- Comment on Creating apps like Signal or WhatsApp could be 'hostile activity,' claims UK watchdog 4 weeks ago:
I think its a mixture of lazy and inexperience.
I believe if someone in a position of authority who understands how vital E2EE is in order for the internet to work, this suggestion wouldn’t even be on the table.
its a case of just kicking destroying E2EE down the road for another generation to deal with, I believe. not sure what the solution is, either

- Comment on If I was to watch the next jake paul fight on netflix, but only watch the first couple fights and turned it off before watching him fight.Would they know? 5 weeks ago:
Netflix doesn’t disclose numbers (usually), but I remember Nielsen asking me a couple of years ago to start tracking my Netflix usage. maybe stay tuned to the next fight and see what they report lol

- Comment on Samsung reveals first tri-fold phone 1 month ago:
damn! I love my fold 5, but only cause the front screen is slim. not a fan of the standard screen size on the front of this one but a 10 inch tablet in my pocket is intriguing…
ill wait for the second or third generation to come out before I consider this
- Comment on People are completely used to autotune in music now, and the same will happen with ai usage 1 month ago:
ai music, compared to autotune, is completely soulless.
I cant put my finger on it or articulate why I feel this way, but hearing an ai song feels absolutely disgusting…
