slaacaa,

Yes, the clearest way would be to launch a separate “Twitch 18+” or smg, offer integration of accounts for users and content creators, and go ahead. But they don’t actually want to do that, they want to blur the line, capitalize on the thirst of the audiance, without fully committing to the idea for PR reasons.

Do we have any source for this besides a shitter post?

Not that it wouldn’t be realistic, I’m just interested in more data.

slaacaa, (edited )

All my adult life I have been living under the rule of Orban, more than a decade now. Your hope decreases year by year, as he always wins his most important domestic and international political battles against all odds. It’s incredibly exhausting.

Now I live in western EU, because I gave up on the hope that Hungary will ever change. Yet my tax money will still continue to fund the infinite apetite of him and his friends.

At least I hope the EC didn’t become his bitch (again) for free, and Ukraine will get the needed funds.

Agree. So many slurs I could rightfully throw at him, nazi is not one of them. It’s important to be clear with these terminologies, or they will be emptied out and cast aside. There are actual nazis in the Hungarian parlament, but they are a different party (“Mi Hazánk”, meaning “Our Home”)

slaacaa,

He makes every election about the topics that will make him win. He’s an opportunistic psychopath without any ideology, not a nazi.

slaacaa,

Not really, the nazis vote for a different Hungarian party (“Mi Hazánk” meaning “Our Home”) that is now also in the parliament

slaacaa,

But they don’t want to actually do it, and this way they can pretend to be working on it.

slaacaa,

Baffled why someone would work for a profit oriented corporation for free

slaacaa,

You can always trust IGN to boldly share their agreement with the popular opinion a few days later

Edit: it was also a trailer published on IGN that hyped the game up a few years ago

slaacaa,

With the Black Flag remaster coming, this game has even less need to exist. The pirate craze is long gone, people will not buy this

slaacaa,

Fans must feel honored for the chance to beta test the game for a year after paying 60 for it.

slaacaa,

Ah yes, “consumed” and “engagement”, my favorite words as a costumer describing the games I enjoy playing.

slaacaa,

Need to buy some Airpods to read the rest

slaacaa, (edited )

I only watched some parts of the event, I can’t stand the celebrity cringe

slaacaa,

Except many other countries respect their own soldiers enough to feed them properly. Yes, war is worse than hell, but the incompetent and corrupt Russian leadership manages to make it even worse for their soldiers

slaacaa, (edited )

Not sure if trying to smuggle cigarettes through a warzone is genius or just stupid

slaacaa,

Nice. Quite amazing Ukraine can pull things like this off deep in Russia (and not for the first time). Putin might want to invest in a longer table, just to be safe

slaacaa,

Heroiam slava!

slaacaa,

A much better headline and article

Somehow all smart TVs have a similar layout, as it wasn’t hard enough to select letters with a remote.

slaacaa,

OMG, scary news. Time to increase the defense budget again, I guess…

slaacaa,

An old trick that works well is to think of license plates.

Keep going, but close your eyes and start to visually imagine license plates of your country, conjuring the letters and numbers one after another into an imaginary plate.

Feel free to try and pass on the ancient wisdom, as it was passed onto me.

HP says I should have known its £399 laptop bargain was too good to be true (www.theguardian.com)

[…] Parcelforce texted the delivery slot. No delivery. Parcelforce and HP’s tracking systems then claimed I had refused the parcel. I scheduled a redelivery for the next day. Parcelforce then rang me and the agent acknowledged a delivery had not been attempted and that the tracking information was false. It claimed HP had...

slaacaa,

I mean it’s not like a sane person would pay their own money to buy anything HP.

Still, I’ve been using HP laptops for 8+ hours a day in the last 5 years due to work, without having a choice.

slaacaa,

Surprised they haven’t done this earlier. Btw this is a big thing, lot of Russians used to go back and forth between the cities for e.g. shopping

slaacaa,

Agree. Also the same with CP77 - I don’t care how much they update and polish that game, I’m not touching it again. It was barely playable on XBOX1X on release. I luckily was able to sell my launch day copy with a small loss, but I’m not trusting them with my money again, after I (and many others) have been misled, and given an unplayable game on consoles.

I am not an investor to lend money to the company for development, I am a consumer, so I want a working game for my money on Day 1, otherwise I’m shopping elsewhere - as plenty of studios manage to great and polished games (e.g. most PS exclusives).

slaacaa,

It’s not about unknown issues on the dev side, it’s about greed. CDPR wanted to release for Xmas when the large playerbase of the prev gen consoles was still relevant, so they happily pushed marketing and lied to take people’s money, hoping they can pay exec bonuses and fund future development from that.

Sony had to pull the game from the online store, as it was barely playable. One good question of course why Sony would let it even be there without testing, but of course major companies are trusted to QA themselves, and not release a broken game - luckily this seems to work most of the time.

slaacaa,

What is their reason for abandoning the source version? I would assume it looks better, and it would be easier to fit for today’s gaming needs

slaacaa,

God I miss those times, it was all about skills. Cheating was also also extremely rare in CS (according to my memories) during the earlier 2000s. Loved that game

slaacaa, (edited )

Hate to repeat comments, but absolutely chill-in-your-bones terifying. Happy for every falling Russian soldier, but the future of wars look even more grim now.

slaacaa,

LG OLEDs are amazing, worth the price. Their OS is also very good compared to other TVs, I used it for years without an outside player. Now I have an Apple TV, ehich is better, but I still miss the LG’s magic controller.

slaacaa,

Last COD I tried to play was the new MW, bought it cheap digitally. After fording to download WZ for that shitty launcher, it couldn’t start on the PS5, kept freezing and crashing. After several rounds of back and forth with PS customer service, and wasting hours on reinstalls, they finally admitted they don’t have a fix, and gave me back my money.

Will never touch this shitpile again (and I used to like COD around the old MW and BO times).

“Everyone”

Edit: as a project manager who stayed home for months, I find the ignorant privilege blasting from these kinds of statements enraging. How can someone be so blind to the world around them, that they don’t even realize that other human beings had a vastly different experience?

slaacaa,

I think that was a super popular mobile game about a decade ago, I used to play it a lot

slaacaa,

I use it every day for work, used 10 before that. Overall fine, similar to 10. Some things were annoying after the switch, but some things are also better. It also helped that I held out for a few months, as the people switching first had a lot of initial problems with the new laptops and 11.

slaacaa,

Please do that!

Elon Musk gives X employees one year to replace your bank - ‘You won’t need a bank account... it would blow my mind if we don’t have that rolled out by the end of next year.’ (www.theverge.com)

“If it involves money. It’ll be on our platform. Money or securities or whatever. So, it’s not just like send $20 to my friend. I’m talking about, like, you won’t need a bank account.”...

slaacaa,

I would love that. Closest you can get is blocking the top Musk posters, my feed significantly improved since then (not perfect solution of course, as you might lose other content, and sometimes you’ll see Musk posts like these from an OP who is not always spamming them)

slaacaa,

“Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell”

slaacaa,

The logic is that others raised subscription prices and got away with it, so they can too. Masks have come off in the last 1-2 years and corporations try to milk us for every last cent, using any excuse (e.g. Covid, energy prices) they can. Inflation is not a law of nature, it’s corporate greed for more profits

slaacaa,

Looks amazing, let’s hope they don’t mess it up

slaacaa,

Spez expressed in interviews that he views Musk’s rampage with twitter as a positive example, so no surprises there

slaacaa,

Wow that would be something, breaking up of the GOP. Dems could rule with stable majority for next 20 years - except they would surely fuck it up somehow.

slaacaa,

Bye-bye tankies!

Goodbye Youtube and thanks for all the fish (infosec.pub)

Youtube let the other shoe drop in their end-stage enshittification this week. Last month, they required you to turn on Youtube History to view the feed of youtube videos recommendations. That seems reasonable, so I did it. But I delete my history every 1 week instead of every 3 months. So they don’t get much from my choices....

slaacaa,

It’s I think the CIA sabotage handbook

slaacaa,

CIA sabotage handbook, if I remember correctly

slaacaa,

Unapproved language detected, account locked. Drink verification can!

Same, I haven’t logged in since Apollo shut down. I occasionally check my small country’s sub through browser, as it’s not active enough on lemmy, but that’s it. I’m super happy with lemmy.

slaacaa, (edited )

I never scroll my facebook wall, but in my country people use fb messenger instead of whatsapp to communicate with each other, so I’m stuck with it as a communication tool. Also, most of birthday/event invites come with a facebook event, so I would also miss those.

It’s just so integrated in to a lot of people’s lives, that it would be hard to remove individually.

How Google Alters Search Queries to Get at Your Wallet (www.wired.com)

Google likely alters queries billions of times a day in trillions of different variations. Here’s how it works. Say you search for “children’s clothing.” Google converts it, without your knowledge, to a search for “NIKOLAI-brand kidswear,” making a behind-the-scenes substitution of your actual query with a different...

slaacaa,

It’s called enshittification: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enshittification
