Ulu-Mulu-no-die

Microsoft Teams is the official communication tool for business where I work, no need to use whatsapp tho a few colleagues use it for fluff, as for personal/family, some of my family use whatsapp but I don’t (I use Discord), if we want to talk to each other we use “good old-fashioned” phone calls :D

Oh didn’t know that, thanks!

I agree those arguments have no legal ground, but I don’t believe emulators are made with the primary purpose of circumventing protections, it’s just naive to think people wouldn’t use them for that purpose IMO.

Haha :D English is not my first language, if the wording is not correct or there’s a better way of saying it, I welcome any correction :)

Valve then forwarded us the statement from Nintendo’s lawyers, and told us that we had to come to an agreement with Nintendo in order to release on Steam.

We all know Nintendo is a bitch and there’s nothing illegal in emulators, but Valve’s stance looks reasonable to me, it would be serious damage to Steam if they were involved in legal litigation.

Very well said, it must have not been easy at all with the huge and sudden influx of people, but everyone did (and is still doing) a fantastic job in keeping lemmy a beautiful place to be.

Thank you for reacting so quickly!

You can also add your personal text in a text box when you create link posts, another thing you can’t do in reddit.

Ooh they changed them :O What …

As I understand it, API charges are for everyone, Apollo for example showed the app is within the limits, I think other app devs did the same.

While not wanting their data to be scraped for AI for free is indeed a valid reason, if it was the real reason they would have come up with different tiers of pricing like every other paid platform does.

Edit: Apollo was within the limits, but reddit changed the rules apparently …

I answered the one asking what happened.

Anyway, I get it’s temporary, I’m not a mod but if they say better tools are needed, I believe them.

better moderation of the offending instances.

What does that mean?

Do they expect lemmy.world admins to police 25K people across 700+ servers? I don’t think that’s how it works.

Or do they mean that they reported harassers to our admins and they didn’t do anything about it?

Apparently some idiots from here think it’s fun coordinating a troll-attack on them and they don’t have enough mod power to deal with it, so they removed their connections with us and sh.itjust.works.

Try this: go into your user settings, change Type from Local to Subscribed and Sort type from Active to Hot (or New if you prefer that).

Then click on Communities on the top bar, switch the list from Local to All, and find communities you’re interested in, you can also search for specific names.

Avoid names ending in @beehaw.org if you see them, they defederated us so we can’t interact with them anymore.

When you find something you like, click on the community name to go to their page, on the right you’ll find the Subscribe button.

After you subscribed to enough communities, close lemmy and open it again, see if it’s better that way (it is for me).

Fantastic news! thanks

beware NVIDIA tho:

However, Valve notes the fact that enabling hardware acceleration on NVIDIA GPUs may cause X11 to crash. As such, hardware acceleration will be disabled by default for NVIDIA systems. In addition, Valve says that DPI scaling may not work correctly when hardware acceleration is disabled.

Is r/AskHistorians considering moving the community somewhere else? It would be a shame to lose such valuable content.
