- Comment on What are some games with absolutely fantastic soundtracks? 2 days ago:
Super Monkey Ball 2 - not in the sense that I’d want to sit and listen to them, but they really fit the game super well. And I’ve heard them sampled in actual songs before… Also as YouTube video background music many times.
- Comment on GOG Launches NSFW Game Giveaway "To Raise Awareness On Censorship In Gaming" 2 days ago:
Presumably a reference to their channel?
- Comment on Great Advertise 3 days ago:
All the better if we can make shaming AI content normal. Make people embarrassed to even try it.
- Comment on Great Advertise 3 days ago:
Yeah same, I think a human artist would have put a door on that bus. But it’s not proof.
- Comment on Great Advertise 3 days ago:
It seems to spit this out whenever you ask for comic style. I couldn’t tell you exactly what it is.
- Comment on The Substack app sent a push notification promoting a Nazi newsletter to several users. 6 days ago:
Yeah I traveled for that one and just barely avoided the clouds. Memory of a lifetime.
- Comment on The Substack app sent a push notification promoting a Nazi newsletter to several users. 1 week ago:
If you ever get the chance to see one it’s actually quite a bit more odd than a cloud passing over. It feels kinda wrong. The sunlight doesn’t warm like it should. Shadows do funny things especially around things like tree leaves. The colors are just kinda eerie.
But yeah if you don’t know it’s happening it is totally possible to miss a partial eclipse if you’re inside or busy and just passing through outside.
- Comment on Got emotional thinking about this 1 week ago:
You can view old street view photos, they aren’t lost.
- Comment on OpenAI’s ChatGPT Agent casually clicks through “I am not a robot” verification test 1 week ago:
Probably because it accessed it through a user’s browser/connection which until that point hadn’t been flagged as a bit and had consistently shown signs of human use.

And if you don’t already have it don’t buy it.
Carpet is the worst fucking flooring you cannot change my mind.

Oh wait hey you’re on my instance. Cool! We’re such small one lol
- Comment on Brave browser blocks Windows feature that takes screenshots of everything you do on your PC 2 weeks ago:
Does he run/have power over JavaScript right now?
- Comment on It's rude to show AI output to people 2 weeks ago:
It gives you some links but in my experience what it says in the summary isn’t always the same as what’s in the link…
- Comment on Password manager by Amazon 2 weeks ago:
It’s pretty safe. Competent password managers will be heavily encrypted. Having your passwords hacked is essentially unheard of. You don’t have to worry about it being on someone else’s computer as without your master password the password file is useless.
I think the biggest case was LastPass, and they did it by getting a keylogger onto a developers PC to get at their password, but afaik customer passwords were safe unless your master password was weak or reused from a breached one.
But, a notebook isn’t hackable at all. But then the people around you could potentially get into it, which is a far more likely threat for a ton of people.
Either way use 2FA at every site that will allow it.
- Comment on Well, I mean they probably... Maybe they... 2 weeks ago:
I’ve never heard that one.
1 liter, 2 liter. Always. But anything smaller in imperial. Very odd tbh
- Comment on Well, I mean they probably... Maybe they... 2 weeks ago:
And also soda but only above handheld size containers
- Comment on Reddit users in the UK must now upload selfies to access NSFW subreddits 2 weeks ago:
Yeah only if the UK can actually manage to enforce any consequences to site admins outside the UK. I’ll wait and watch.
- Comment on Trying to make a phone proxy 2 weeks ago:
Please, be aware that the quality of the voice call depends and a lot of the data rate. Keep this in mind uif you are in remote locations with poor coverage.
Nowadays most cell calls are VoIP anyhow. Heck in the US they shut off the old networks and only allow VoLTE/Vo5G
- Comment on Reddit users in the UK must now upload selfies to access NSFW subreddits 2 weeks ago:
Well as a Lemmy admin I’ll see if they seriously enforce this on international sites. If not, I won’t worry about it. If so, the UK gets blocked. 🤷🤷🤷
I doubt they’ll be going after Noche sites anyway. Big dogs like reddit, sure. Sites dedicated to porn probably. Everyone else? Doubt it.
- Comment on Reddit users in the UK must now upload selfies to access NSFW subreddits 2 weeks ago:
Real talk - or what? If LemmyNSFW isn’t based in the UK, what can they do?
Block it? I’d rather have that than deal with processing users face data.
- Comment on It really works! 2 weeks ago:
I think de-ionize or de-ionized/de-ionization is the proper term.
- Comment on Do movie actors or actress keep the skills they learned? Like no one would screw with Keanu after seeing all the John Wick films? And if they did would they just be fucked from the start? 2 weeks ago:
I imagine beyond just choreography someone whose career is that kind of movie will probably have gotten at least some general training
- Comment on Why do so many people seem confused about what appeals to male gays? Do they not know how sexual orientation works? 2 weeks ago:
Uh there’s plenty of gay dudes the top pic would appeal to.
Other prefer… different. But I think most would at least appreciate that bod.
- Comment on 8BitDo Pro 3 Bluetooth announced with swappable magnetic ABXY 2 weeks ago:
Oh no sorry I meant digital. Honestly I prefer analog but no they are still digital. And the sticks feel really, really nice.
But yeah after seeing the iFixit video, I can’t recommend it
- Comment on 8BitDo Pro 3 Bluetooth announced with swappable magnetic ABXY 2 weeks ago:
I’d say the Switch 2 Pro controller would be a great option for you if it wasn’t a repairability nightmare and expensive. Analog triggers and feels really nice
- Comment on 8BitDo Pro 3 Bluetooth announced with swappable magnetic ABXY 2 weeks ago:
The swappable buttons don’t include the switches do they? Gimmicky if not. They’re four buttons in a diamond. You can just imagine whichever layout you really don’t need to SEE them. At least swappable switches would be good repairability and offer different feels.
- Comment on pocket knife 2 weeks ago:
You’d have to be able to argue in court that you had some other reason for having loose razors in your pockets.
You would probably lose. I mean trust me I don’t like cops, but you totally lose.

And it still gets shit wrong.
