oct_opus,

I think the numbers should be verified independently

oct_opus,

I don’t know why but the game is not fun, I was bored in like 2 hours… the controls were a mess and everything looks tinted and hard to see.

Add to that the poor optimisation on PC. I’m going to pass on that one

oct_opus,

Here are few things to consider:

  • The vast majority of nuclear waste is not highly radioactive. Over 90% of it is low-level waste. As we progresses we’re finding better ways to manage and reduce this or even recycling it.
  • The Fukushima incident though unfortunate and a reminder to improve safety standards didn’t result in any direct fatalities due to radiation. In fact, the amount of radioactivity released into the ocean was 0 when you look at the vastness of the Pacific and the dilution. The oceans already contain a considerable amount of natural radiation and the added amount from the incident, though not better than nothing is a drop in the ocean size bucket.
  • Air pollution from coal plants contributes to numerous premature deaths yearly with some estimates in the hundreds of thousands globally. This is far more concerning than the potential risks posed by nuclear energy especially when managed with modern safety standards. Just see Fukushima.
  • As for nuclear plants being military targets, any infrastructure can become a target in wartime, dams, chemical plants or any other energy installations. The key is to ensure safety and security measures.

It seems they are not going to make batterie replaceable without a fight. The waterproof excuse is crap, they already don’t give us repairs if the iphone is « water dommage » and they can just make a new water resistant design around the new requirements

oct_opus,

I feel like there was an unwritten agreement between extension developers and Google/Youtube. Youtube allowed ad-blocking for those who wanted it, and in exchange, ad-blockers didn’t hide that users were blocking ads. By doing this, Youtube would break this agreement. I think there will always be a way around it, but currently, as it’s still working, no alternative that I know of has been developed.

oct_opus,

Nice catch, I edited the post. Thank you ! 👍

oct_opus,

I added it to the list 😀 thanks !

oct_opus,

When there is a will there’s a way. They underestimate what people on the interwebs are willing to do to watch bad videos without being bothered by even abysmally crappier ads 🤡

oct_opus,

I played Diablo 4 until the end of the campaign, but after that, it became boring. The dungeons are repetitive, with everything looking the same. The dullest thing is the level scaling. Instead of having a sense of progression and being overpowered, every mob are at the same level as you. Additionally, the only effective way to play the game is to copy someone else’s build…

It doesn’t feel like a game made with love and passion but more like a mathematical formula that maximizes time played over enjoyment.

That game is pretty, but that’s pretty much it.

oct_opus,

Thank you for the link. It works great! Now I have the perfect YouTube with Ublock Origin + Sponsor Block + Dearrow + Return Youtube Dislike. It’s crazy how many extensions you need to add to make YouTube bearable… it’s really time for a good competitor to take its place !

oct_opus,

Hum I don’t know why but feels like a step backwards for Europe in regards to privacy. The comment about Meta viewing this positively doesn’t smell good …

They should just migrate to other platforms or join us. I don’t understand why would they stay on a website hostile to its users like this. They want to protest on the same platform that is the source of the problem…

oct_opus,

I'm using Liftoff on IOS and it works great

oct_opus,

I don't think having a rating system that could be farmed or abused is a good solution. There should be no incentive to generate content just for the publicity of the account. All the content ends up being reposts of low-effort things that are just more relatable, which, in all honesty, I find really lame.

They want to turn reddit into a cash cow and we are the product.

It’s sad.

oct_opus,

On my end, r/anime_titties has the most recent post from 10 days ago. The same goes for r/mildlyinteresting, and there is a banner asking if the sub features adult content.

Reddit has become fully corrupted, and it will only get worse. Even if you don't care about third-party apps, it's only a matter of time before their greed comes for your favorite subreddit or the next feature that they can exploit for money.

Even the latest features on Reddit, like the avatar as NFT, Reddit Premium, or the new design, are just here to extract more money from us.

I will not share my data or use the website of a company that shows so little concern for what their users want.
