SPOOSER,

They've been raging on Twitch for a while now. Having an adblocker for Twitch has been like playing whack-a-mole, except your adblocker is the mole Twitch is trying to whack.

State loses court battle, enabling Iowans to again receive non-English voting materials (www.rawstory.com)

An Iowa judge has blocked the state from attempting to prevent election officials from offering non-English voting materials to the public. Under the ruling, Iowa counties will again be allowed to provide citizens with non-English ballots, voter-registration forms, and absentee ballot applicatio...

SPOOSER,

What was the defense here? This seems like a clear violation of the right to vote for U.S. citizens who are unable to read English.

SPOOSER,

Let me know how it runs, for some reason I can never get Fallout 4 to run smoothly on any system.

SPOOSER,

I've been playing Battlebit Remastered on Steam and holy shit while it looks awful it's one of the funnest FPS I have played in a while. Super fun, super smooth, and scratches the COD itch from when I was a kid. I HIGHLY reccomend it!

Also Tears of the Kingdom.

SPOOSER,

Yeah I was hesitant at first because of the low poly but the gameplay is top tier.

SPOOSER,

That is interesting. Are you getting your turret built at a good vantage every bug wave and maintaining it? That would be my only thought.

SPOOSER,

I doubt it. The post about reopening was mostly full of people making fun of the protest. I doubt many scapers will leave, especially since it's the main forum for Jagex Customer Service.

SPOOSER,

I just think the mass deletion of content is such a loss for the internet as a whole. I wish instead of people supporting deleting Reddit comments, there was a way for individuals to upload a history of their comments onto a Lemmy instance. I just think deleting all of your reddit contribution is a massive loss for the Internet, regardless of the significance of the contribution.

SPOOSER,

I've been doing it and my 2 year old LOVES it. Everytime we finish he has a massive smile on his face and it makes me feel so happy.

WoW retail SteamDeck performance?

I've been dancing around the idea of getting a SteamDeck and had a couple of questions for anyone running WoW on it. I'm not planning on mythic raiding or anything similar to it, would mostly like to quest, ach hunt, similar "chill" stuff but would definitely like to try and see how playable a dungeon or LFR would be....

SPOOSER,

I have played retail World of Warcraft on my steam deck without locking it to 40hz. It was satisfactory while flying around in Valdrakken and in the few quests I did. I was surprised at how well it performed. I can't say anything about playing a pet class or addons not working, but the controlls with the controller addon worked great and my fps never fell below a threshold that was annoying, and I'm pretty senesitive to fram rate issues in games. It DID get really hot if you touched it in the wrong spots but it does thst for lots of games I play, if you stick to the handles it doesnt get too hot to play.

SPOOSER,

It works perfect for that! Hope you get yours soon :D

SPOOSER,

The character is so cool! Reminds me of a pokemon character

Reddit CEO Steve Huffman's letter to Reddit employees in response to blackout

Starting last night, about a thousand subreddits have gone private. We do anticipate many of them will come back by Wednesday, as many have said as much. While we knew this was coming, it is a challenge nevertheless and we have our work cut out for us. A number of Snoos have been working around the clock, adapting to...

SPOOSER,

It's a reflection of society as a whole, unfortunately.

SPOOSER,

Remember when there were alternatives to YouTube?

SPOOSER,

All governments should be able to be criticized if we're going to be honest about having genuinely open discussions.

SPOOSER,

A lot of people in this thread are missing the point. Yes, there are explanations to how to use the fediverse but what this individual is lamenting is that it’s so confusing that it took them two days to get to the point of posting for help, whereas on Reddit it would have taken them 10 minutes. The steep learning curve is going to stifle the growth of lemmy.

An argument can be made that those who are unwilling to learn the way that the fediverse works are important because it’s simply a process of “weeding out” individuals to keep the communities great. I would argue that this argument fails to understand the point of the fediverse altogether, that if you don’t like one community there are plenty of others that can be moderated to your particular standards. Also, if individuals are unable to learn Lemmy quickly enough to begin using it, they’ll simply go to one of the corporate-owned social media sites. There needs to be a way for Lemmy to help new users integrate easier, rather than them having to create posts like this asking the community how to simply subscribe to a page they want to browse. Lemmy is amazing and I’ve really enjoyed it and am excited for its prospects, but it’s got a long way to go in terms of user-friendliness before it can truly become what we all want it and know it can be- a viable alternative to corporate-owned social media.
