Butthole detects proximity to safe toilet.

AI: “This is definitely a fake review because I wrote it.”

Mozilla’s not going to undermine the thing that’s going to drive the largest adoption of Firefox in years.

And even if some prototype device is, that doesn’t mean the production device will be, once things like heat and power usage have to really be accounted for.

People tend to overrate the harms from potential changes, while simultaneously vastly underrating the harms that already exist that they’ve gotten used to.

But, we do need to consider the roads we pave and the tools we use

This is the part that every “lol just turn off the crypto crap, no problem!” responses don’t understand. There are short-term issues, and there are long-term issues. Disabling undesired stuff fixes the short-term issue. Letting Brave build up their market share, at the expense of user-first options, creates long-term problems.

Maybe that’s the actual value they’re watching, did you ever think of that, Mr. Pessimist?

(Sorry, junior dev somewhere out there. I tried.)

Dicus added that it appears Ikeguchi acted alone. However, he said that authorities want to ensure that the crime was not affiliated with any broader hate groups

It certainly was. The group you’re looking for has a few names, but the most common are “Republicans” and “GOP”.

But reaching back there and fondling their asshole with a wad of paper is totally not.

Someone played on the hardest difficulty (along with enabling the option to “pistol start” every level), and left a Steam review complaining that the expansion is too hard. That got a developer response.

I think Heretic crossed with Unreal is an accurate comparison.

Enemies may have been more plentiful than in Unreal, but movement is much closer to Unreal than Heretic’s DOOM engine movement. And it’s much closer to Unreal than anything in the Quake lineage.

Also, the weapon arsenal’s style is very Heretic, but the weapon behavior is very Unreal.

Same with the levels, honestly. Style is Heretic, but the level design itself reminded me of Unreal pretty frequently. (And nothing like the puzzle-heavy, hub-based Hexen)

Plenty of people who are critical of capitalism aren’t necessarily advocating for an entirely different system. Rather, they’re advocating for dealing with the problems of capitalism head-on, rather than pretending that they don’t exist and allowing them to become worse.

My watch has stopped

Decades of traditional automakers sabotaging the whole concept of EVs should make them the bad guys when it comes to EVs.

Elon has managed to make them the good guys.

Shows like The Handmaid’s Tale have been circling the drain of their own premise for a few years now.

As far as I’m concerned, that show ended when the first season did (which corresponded with the ending of the book).

When I heard a season 2 was happening, I thought it might be based around the book’s epilogue. Instead, it’s the same story dragged out long past where it was supposed to end.

I get that, but the anime subs were just so absurdly numerous. I just wanted to browse /r/all without having the entire page be anime and “weeb” stuff. I would click to filter out subs over and over and over again, which would help for a while, but eventually /r/all would be flooded with a new batch of anime subs. All I wanted was a “filter out all anime subs” checkbox in the settings.

I think part of what annoyed me about the anime subs also is how much of it was the lowest of low-effort content (which was the same state of affairs for the “irl” and “circlejerk” subs, hence why I disliked them just as much). If I skimmed /r/all and came across thoughtful discussions about subjects that didn’t interest me, that never bothered me. But a screenful of crappy image posts never failed to annoy me.

I’m not arguing that the subs didn’t have a right to exist or anything, all I’m saying is that I personally found them annoying, wanted to not see them, and have enjoyed the fact that I’m not seeing so much of that same content now that I’m browsing Lemmy instead.

Well, when I look at the All communities list, I’m not yet seeing an endless flood of groups with “_irl”, “circlejerk”, or groups for every single damn anime in existence.

So, thankfully, it’s not feeling too Reddit just yet.

My man’s out here binary search tree-ing his plugins, lol.
