I assume it isn’t on. same way I assume a camera isn’t on when someone is holding their phone

Gotta go to the bathroom? Too damn bad. You’re a public servant.
you lost me here, this is an insane statement. a camera always on even when youre in the bathroom?
if i was in a public restroom with a police officer, I now have to worry about being on camera in the one place where cameras are illegal? come on…
- Comment on Meta progression in roguelites was fun for a while, but it's starting to feel unrewarding 3 days ago:
I feel like this is why I dropped playing many rogue-likes and am currently addicted to playing arc raiders, as you lose so many things if you die and have to self-evaluate every single time you don’t get home.
I have to get home and survive in order to actually grow my character positively, where dying punishes me for losing (almost) everything and gaining very little experience points to allocate to my characters permanent buffs.

the great part about all this is you still being able to interact with people on mastodon. killer feature

- Comment on Alleged Fable concept art seems to point towards a return to Fable 2's rogueish hive of scum and pub islands 2 weeks ago:
I was neutral about this game coming out when I heard the forza guys were making this.
not to sound like a total bummer, but with everything Microsoft is doing in regards to Xbox, how can I get hype over this or gears?

- Comment on 4 weeks 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 4 weeks 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 5 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 1 month 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

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
