sculd,

I used to think Brave was good until I found out they are into crypto.

Nope Nope and Nope! Not using that thing again. Firefox is my friend now.

sculd,

Try Waterfox. It is pretty good.

Does the threadiverse (Lemmy + Kbin) seem ruder the last few weeks?

I dunno. I just feel less like I’m experiencing a fun new tool for communication the last few weeks. The communities here on Beehaw are still great and fantastic and aren’t what I’m bothered by. It’s just when I venture out in the world (which I often do) that I notice conversations are much more argumentative than I...

Politics discussion seems to bring out the worst part of a lot of people

Hong Kong Cantonese-language advocacy group closes after China's national security police raid founder’s home (hongkongfp.com)

Andrew Chan established the group to promote Cantonese and “safeguard the linguistic rights of Hongkongers,” after policies were put forward to push Mandarin-language instruction in the city’s schools. Currently living abroad, Chan said he would not return to Hong Kong due to safety concerns.

sculd,

This is a shame and is why democracy is so important. Don’t fall for the authoritarian trap!!

Ok so I haven’t completed the game yet (too busy with work) but so far I am enjoying it. Just finished crossing the wall.

I feel like AC6 feels like a good mid-point between AC4 (too floaty) and AC5 (too on the ground).

Maybe because I usually preferred inverted legs / 4 legs over tanky ACs, I feel like the game pretty much did what I want it to do?

Bosses in older AC entries usually don’t have a clear “tell” in their actions. It could be a good thing but could also cause a lot of frustrations.

I still remember Pulverizer from Last Raven, it was definitely more frustration than fun…

Mullvad Browser (no TOR, no VPN) (monero.town)

The Mullvad Browser is a privacy-focused web browser developed in collaboration with Mullvad VPN and the Tor Project. It aims to eliminate data collection and provide user-centric browsing services, ensuring online activity remains private and secure. The browser has the same fingerprinting protection as the Tor Browser, but...

sculd,

Have been a user of Mullvad. This looks really interesting!!

Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix

I wonder how many people played that…

sculd,

Good. We don’t need more religion interfering with people’s life.

sculd,

Dumb mistake??? How do you mistakenly kiss someone???

Stop justifying sexual assault!

sculd,

Insanity.

If he resigned he might still save himself from public humiliation. Now everyone is going to see the misogyny and understand the sexist attitude in some part of Spain.

sculd,

And nobody is surprised…

sculd,

I didn’t notice any issue with Mastodon Social

sculd,

Congratulations!!! Well done!!!

sculd,

YouTube is getting worse real fast.

They even deleted the “sort by old videos” button to force people to watch new videos. Sometimes I just want to watch old videos and have to scroll for minutes to find old videos because you know, they don’t load unless you scroll past the newer videos.

And why can’t I drag the timeline of shorts?

Insanity.

sculd,

Great!! Hope we got more of these on this sub.

sculd,

Yes it is. Yes it is.

If you really interact with the lemmy community you know they are very pro “freeze peach”, which means it comes with all the fascists, all the phobias, and the trolls.

I like Beehaw for what it is. Tight moderation.

sculd,

ok…? But it is not my experience there and from the responses here they seem to agree with me.

A principle is not useful when it is not enforced.

sculd,

This is a plane they cannot replace, yeah~

sculd,

It will be nothing like the old one…

sculd,

Pushing for even more realistic graphics will make the cost of making even higher with no significant change in enjoyment of players.

Players enjoyed games when we had Supernintendos and DOS games. They actually gave players more room for imagination.

sculd,

Can someone explain how this is enforceable??

sculd,

LOL They only found out now?

sculd,

I felt like this issue would better be discussed between you and your psychiatrist.

Sometimes there is only so much information you can pass on the internet, it would be very difficult for internet strangers to find out what is really going on.

And yes, it is possible you are non-binary.

sculd,

This made sure I will avoid all CNET articles in google searches

sculd,

The blue bird being killed by the X is such a fitting graphic.

France’s browser-based website blocking proposal sets a disastrous precedent for the open internet (blog.mozilla.org)

In a well-intentioned yet dangerous move to fight online fraud, France is on the verge of forcing browsers to create a dystopian technical capability. Article 6 (para II and III) of the SREN Bill would force browser providers to create the means to mandatorily block websites present on a government provided list. Such a move...

sculd,

The article is not very clear about what exactly the proposal mandate. Create the means for browser to block websites, or forces browser to block certain websites by the geolocation they are operating in?

Because I don’t understand how the later would work.

From the wording it seems like they are only asking browser developers to provide a function to block websites. (maybe byimporting a block list?)

sculd,

Yeah…MS understands they still have a huge market in developing countries and moving everything to cloud would be suicide.

sculd,

Forbidden knowledge…??? WTF is that description

sculd,

EU comes to the rescue again.

sculd,

Nope. Nope. And nope. Any company tied to crypto I will not trust.

sculd,

A lot of people tried it out the first few days. Didn’t found the function they need and left.

Probably a lot will go back if its fully functional. Honestly cannot believe a Twitter alternative did not launch with chronological feed…

sculd,

Privacy and I no longer trust Google for anything long term.

sculd,

Everything Google is doing now is against what it once stood for.

“to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.”

“to display the most profitable advertisement even if it contains misinformation”

“do no evil”

DELETED

“against authoritarian government censorship”

“let’s try to develop a censored search engine for China”

and many more…

sculd,

This means all governments around the world should impose similar laws so Facebook / Google will finally fxxking pay the news organisations they helped destroyed.

sculd,

I dunno. I have friends who just seem to enjoy the game without stressing themselves too much…

How Spec Ops the Line Condemns the Player: A Timestamped Excerpt from Games as Literature's Analysis (youtu.be)

The whole video is worth watching, but this section in particular makes a better case than I’ve seen in other analyses: that the game condemns player involvement not by simply chastising the player for choosing to continue playing itself (as I’ve seen other analyses argue), but rather for carelessly and uncritically engaging...

sculd,

Honestly feel like Spec Ops should have added an option to just leave the desert at the beginning of the game.

Giving the player a choice will make the “twist” much more powerful because the player could have chosen the other way.

sculd,

There are a few points I feel is pretty forced. Okay there is an hostage situation happening right now so I get it. They wanted to help.

But after they found out the hostage is dead and there are rogue elements, they should just turn back and report the findings to their superior so that they can decide whether to send reinforcements or not.

The Spec Op protagonists aren’t good soldiers. They ignored direct orders from their superior multiple times!

sculd,

I will use it if the speed is comparable to normal browsing…

Meta Just Proved People Hate Chronological Feeds (www.wired.com)

Meta conducted an experiment where thousands of users were shown chronological feeds on Facebook and Instagram for three months. Users of the chronological feeds engaged less with the platforms and were more likely to use competitors like YouTube and TikTok. This suggests that users prefer algorithmically ranked feeds that show...

sculd,

They don’t “hate” chronological feeds. The study say they are more likely to disengage, and that’s probably because people got what they need from the chronological feed and log off to do other things…

Proving that chronological feed is more healthy.

sculd,

Virtual support here!! It looks like you really need to see a psychiatrist… Is there any NGO near your location where you might get help?

sculd,

Samurai gets paid by the fedual lord. Easy choice.

sculd,

Honestly people should stop buying Google products…

sculd,

Maybe for newer organisations.

But not for large oranisations. And when some jobs depend on creating the shiniest powerpoint presentation in the world, MS Office is unlikely to go away for now.

sculd,

For some reason the BBC has an article on this news saying that 1975 is acting as “white saviour”…

WTF. Is the BBC insane?

Its the Malaysian government oppressing its people and they are just artists trying to protest.
