  • Fair enough.

  • dating culture clash

  • At least I was correct that the red one was some form of BSD. Gonna have to look up plan9, though. Don't think I've heard of that one.

  • I'm pretty sure I understand what the red one is, but what's the other supposed to represent?

  • Give it a few more years and it will probably be over there. I don't know whether it's an ongoing thing or what since I haven't kept up with it, but there is/was(?) a case of some Springer Verlag trying to say that an ad blocker violates copyright law, going after Eyeo/Adblocker Plus.

  • Were you guys able to get people to move to Lemmy?

    Jump

  • Back when this whole API thing happened, I didn't bother because I knew that almost nobody would listen to me as my account was fairly young and only had a small amount of that karma bullshit.

    I left because I do a lot in my power to avoid seeing ads on sites/apps. Also, when I heard that it would cost a prohibitively expensive amount for a certain app (don't remember which) to use the API and heard that unofficial mod tools for things like helping people with sight disabilities mod were gonna disappear, I dipped because I cannot support that type of stuff.

  • Introducing Microsoft Edge Game Assist (Preview)—a seamless, full-featured in-game browser

    Jump

  • They acknowledge the whole thing of people looking up things on their phone like maybe guides, but I ask how is their solution any better?

    The game is probably already paused if you're looking at a guide and most everyone always has their phone on hand and are able to quickly look something up. To me this looks like them trying to sell a solution that has already been solved over a decade ago by repackaging it as something brand new.

  • Put your usernames and passwords in your will, Japan advises

    Jump

  • I can see why people would feel this way, but I would absolutely want a trusted family member that I care about to have access to my data so they could create some sort of digital family memorial of my life if they so choose, for a funeral or just to have in general. I'd personally want family to have easy access to my data so they could easily find any memories they wanna share.

  • What are some freebies we should be aware of?

    Jump

  • If you are a fan of pokemon and want actually challenging games with stories that vary in quality, fan games and ROM hacks are your go-to.

    My personal recommendations right now are Pokemon Vanguard and Unbreakable Ties, both phenomenal fan games despite not even being completed yet. You'll get well over something like 20-30 hours alone with Unbreakable Ties and it's just in its 4th beta. Both feel like passion projects in the best way possible and Unbreakable Ties is looking to be a master craft in the art department as well (minus a few fullscreen art scenes that pop up).

    At most, you'll have to join a discord server, as annoying as it is, if you want more up to date info on the game and download links.

  • An ad giant wants to control your next TV’s OS

    Jump

  • Smart TVs are why I'm never getting rid of the old Samsung TV I'm currently using as a monitor for my desktop. It's not quite flat screen like an actual flat screen, but at least it doesn't have a camera attached to it (besides the USB camera I keep unplugged unless needed), no microphone, and no ads. Plus, I still have access to all the other types of things I need like AVI and coaxial inputs, besides HDMI. It's gonna be the saddest day ever when the beauty decides to die on me.

  • What's your favourite Youtube channel most people probably haven't heard of?

    Jump

  • DuskTillShawn

    Does mostly just kinda essay like videos going over cartoon episodes (or even whole characters in the case of Hey Arnold!). Seemingly just nickelodeon right now, though there are others like a CtCD video.

    Don't feel as out of place sharing a 159k sub channel when OP brings up a nearly 450k channel.

    Also, this post motivated me to look through my subs and found a couple I unsubbed to and found some shocking things like some channels last videos were more recent than I thought. Also keeping myself away from going on a nostalgia trip of over a decade ago.

  • Japan ranks 92nd in English proficiency, lowest ever: survey

    Jump

  • True. Also doesn't help when you sometimes mix up シ(shi) and ツ (tsu) because the font (or someone else's handwriting) makes them look very similar.

  • the Click on lemmy when?!?!?!

    Jump

  • I wish. Too much work for them, especially since we don't have as much engagement and posting on specific subr•ddit equivalents, if they even exist at all, compared to the originals. And I sure as Hell ain't confident enough to start being one of those people who do a million posts a day to drive engagement.

  • How diffrent OSes evolve

    Jump

  • Win10 compared to straight win8 (not 8.1 or whatever it was that fixed 8) is far superior in some ways. I get people don't like either (I'm a dedicated win8 hater myself), but I would gladly take the win10 UI any day over the horrible failed experiment that was whatever the whole "Everything As An App! No Start Menu!" bullshit they tried in 8. Having your start menu replaced by a full screen app list is the absolute dumbest thing ever and I am so glad we've moved on from that dark age.

    Also, what was so bad about Vista? I may have some rose tinted glasses, but I don't remember it being that bad

  • It's only pedophilia if the other side does it

    Jump

  • The only thing wrong about this is the fact that there is no way the maga maggots are smart enough to even know what "ephebophilia" is because it has more than 3 syllables.

  • Elon Musk to ‘summon [UK] MPs to US to explain threats to American citizens’

  • Hey! You can't just disrespect loons like that!

  • If M*sk actually worked a day in his life, he'd have a brain aneurysm. He works the same way a cat who gets everything handed to them because they're too lazy to move works.

  • Imagine being the bootlickers who wrote that malicious code. Rest in piss, all of y'all.

  • If a certain orange haired moldy cheeto is gonna stop funding them, it's the least he can do with the last of his time. Let Ukraine give Russia a love letter in the form of missiles being allowed to strike deep into enemy territory.

  • How do you organize your digital stuff?

    Jump

  • Depends on what it is. Currently, on my laptop, I have music organized by group followed by album if I have ripped a CD for backup in case my CD stops working. Got a lot of blanks, just in case, for free.

    Downloads isn't organized. Pictures are slightly organized, with images for background in a folder and a few other folders. Most everything in documents is in a folder inside the documents folder or a subfolder in the subfolders.

    Desktop has folder has mostly the important things in it, like folder for appimages, emulators, other programs and related files that require their own folder, and a few miscellaneous files. Organization is something I have prioritized a lot more on my laptop to ensure I don't end up having a situation like with my desktop where it's a shitshow.

    As for phone, I'm doing a lot better with organization because I set up a new phone I got maybe a month or less ago and have been doing good to organize. Just need to go into my SD card and fix some things up that haven't been organized for a long time, since my 2nd smartphone, back from ~2015-16. Mostly just music. Got over 500 audio files stored on an SD card, so you can imagine how insane it is to try and organize, especially if you feel daunted by that task like me.
