I think you over estimate people’s ability to cook these days.

“truly the 60’s were a time of liberation.”

I love the people that compare one aspect of history and forget the rest, lol. The past sucked and our current future sucks.

John Lennon was a piece of shit.

“Lemmy has found a billionaire it likes.” - reads one post makes a determination because of one post.

God I fucking hate Lemmy. It is the same nonsense like this Lemmy gives reddit crap about

One post doesnt make a platform like a billionaire. Also, if a Billionaire can speak about against something that protects artists then all the power to them. Slapping the word billionaire on something doesn’t make everything a billionaire does bad.

I hate billionaires as much as the next Lemmy user but it is sentiments like this that are nonsense.

As someone who also owns the original I am absolutely having a blast with the new one.

Oblivion Remastered is fucking awesome though. Blown away it manages to maintain what makes it fun, quirky, and bad and add new fun, quirky, and bad aspects to itself. It has genuinely been a blast to the past as someone who is now an adult that started playing Elder Scrolls as a teen.

I would love to see Morrowind next. Hate all you want Bethesda absolutely picked the perfect Elder Scrolls game to remaster.

Lol, he isn’t going to do shit.

While there are channels that do some hardware hacking like breaking the firmware on Alarmo or Car Thing. I wish there were less laws on sponsorship and it was normalized to show hardware hacks and firmware bugs and open sourcing some exploits and so we would see it more often rather than hearing about it as a talk at a conference and that companies would partner or work with the extremely intelligent people capable of figuring such things out to improve the security of their products for average citizens.

Seeing a channel that could show you a regular every day smart product, console, or just a kids toy being hacked would be a regular in my book.

Honestly, I don’t know how old you are but I am 29 and as someone who loves modern tech I have fallen in love with old retro tech colors and designs as well.

I recently have been modifying old gaming hardware like my GameCube and buying things like Gamboys and Nintendo DS:s and even modern takes on old hardware like the Analogue Pocket.

I absolutely love the way these look in this image.

As someone who uses both. I think Mastodon also just doesn’t have the users, it is not as easy to setup and I think understanding instances and its UI are less user friendly.

I use both Mastodon and BlueSky and I don’t really care for platforms like Twitter. Both Mastodon and BlueSky are good in their own ways but I think BlueSky is user friendly. Easy to setup looks super similar to Twitter, easier to navigate.

Plus, I have heard about it pretty much everywhere. It is commonly compared to Threads. I only know and heard about Mastodon on Lemmy.

I am always a little surprised that everyone is surprised as if people are intentionally avoiding Mastodon.

I like Mastodon but it is empty by comparison to BlueSky people want a social media app where there are people to talk to on quantities. BlueSky is also user friendly by comparison, IMO. Easier to setup.

“Well Mastodon would be busier if people would stop going anywhere else.”

No one is avoiding Mastodon I think it is odd it has never occurred to anyone that BlueSky is talked about way more. I had never heard Mastodon before Lemmy but I saw talks of BlueSky everywhere.

Can’t wait for the supporters to come out and gas light buyers instead: "uh, well of course they couldn’t. He didn’t lie you just don’t understand tech…!

I work in IT and people that think like that can fuck themselves. “What do you mean Meta lied by selling your data to a company you didn’t know about. Maybe you should just have never trusted Meta.”

Stupid fucking boot lickers.

People want to socially interact on a platform with the intention of letting you socially interact. I understand Mastodon intends to do the same thing as.BlueSky so the question is why is BlueSky more.popular.

As someone who uses both. Mastodon’s UI and signup process is not as straight toward at least that is my personal reason why.

This is why exclusives are bad, IMO. Not that the game can’t be great but this is what comes with it. Companies trying to sell their product. Imagine if every PC game in Steam advertised and required a Steam Deck login.

I though they were her cheeks. She is anxious so her face is drawn in the first image then when she relaxes her cheeks are more prominent because she is happy until caught off guard.

Isn’t there a way to just his the ribbon?

Ah yes, the always shitty, “I know everything because I am that business and person all the time and better than them.” Shit fucking comment.

At this point people who are like, “just use Linux” sound like, “just buy an iPhone.” The only difference is the Linux people don’t end up actually knowing shit about enterprise environments

I will get down voted because Lemmy is an Echo Chamber with people circle jerking their self justified opinions.

But seriously fuck off, dude. Anyone that literally says this doesn’t know shit about an actual environment.

Let me know when fucking Oracle’s shitty products work better on Linux boxes over Windows when their own fucking Linux products don’t work. I will go to the business I am a part of right now and let them know we should just hire you to make all of our financial and enterprise setup choices because you said so.

China: “this guys right, we are almost close to be our own chip manufacture and owning Taiwan.”

Bottom line or not there are ways that ISP’s could mitigate the loss that would benefit their bottom like while hurting the consumer.

Example: 1000 users are now nor able to pay or use the internet because of Piracy. ISP says: oh we had 2000 users now we have 1000 easy we will just double the cost of internet on those 1000 users.

ISP’s are like any other company. Pointing it out doesn’t mean it is negative. They are a business ruin their business model and it impacts everyone. I am not saying you are wrong. I just think your comment tries to view this stance in a negative light in the context and something being a business with a bottom line doest not instantly make something negative or make something negative not worth fighting for.

Seeing a lot of comments on here and it just reminds me of what I have been telling my friends since day one.

1. PalWorld is a threat to Pokemon. It has potential to crown Pokemon in a different way and really compete. Nintendo will 100% find a way. I told them and told them. I said the same thing on Reddit. Sure enough, downvoted.

2. I love Pokemon, I love Zelda, and Mario but I absolutely love competition. There is no way a billion dollar franchise, multi level marketing, insanept popular game series is going to let something come along and compete against it. If you haven’t watched The Boys on Amazon you are missing out. One of the most redeeming characters, IMO, says it best in two sentences in the boys in one whole episode and it is the premise of everything. "You don’t get it do you? You don’t mess with the money.

3. I love seeing games come along and bring something new to the table because it should drive Nintendo to do better for GameFreak to do better. I liked PalWorld and welcomed it as someone who loves Pokemon. While PalWorld didn’t maintain my interest its because Pokemon just does something for me PalWorld doesn’t. However, that being said I have found my self turned away from Pokemon since Gen 7 and 8 semi redeemed 7 and 9 is just sad (performance wise). I have found my self playing the hell out of tjr classic Pokémon games. Point being I welcomed PalWorld in hopes that it would light a fire under Nintendo’s ass to develop a really good next gen Pokemon game. It was wishful thinking though. Nintendo is a “don’t mess with the money” company and that is all it is. Fuck Nintendo. PalWorld was good for the game industry. What Nintendo is going to try to set precedence on is that you can own an idea a simple concept.

I have been telling my friends for literal fucking years and for some reason they just swing the bat for Nintendo. Nintendo makes some great games but holy fuck they are a shit company. They just are. I told them over and over this was coming Nintendo would find something and now here we are.

I sent this too them and they all got silent. They genuinely believed Nintendo couldn’t and wouldn’t.

Hear me out, I genuinely want to know what someone thinks of this idea.

We have Life Phone 3 coming soon and some good e-ink options.

I have been thinking about one of those e-ink box Palmas and putting a minimalist launcher on it making it my primary work device or get away from the world device.

My Pixel 8 Pro is running GrapheneOS so my primary phone would manage my worldly needs in a private manner while my Boox would handle my get away needs for just the essentials. Reading and browsing nothing more.

I would lock the device down with a child google account and Google’s family link app. This could see screen time prevent launcher changing and unnecessary app downloads my primary phone could manage it under a segmented Google profile in GrapheneOS. I think I would find myself to annoyed to even bother allowing app downloads so I would just install what is felt the phone was necessary for. A basic web browser, minimalist launcher and reading apps, lemmy and maybe Reddit. It would cut downy screentime a lot I think.
