raptir,

How can they say it “failed financially” four days after launch?

raptir,

The person you’re replying to doesn’t seem to be implying anything you’re arguing against in your response.

raptir,

They’re saying chromosomes are a good measure for “transness” or “cisness”.

No, they’re not. They’re saying that because a person’s chromosomes don’t change based on whether they are trans or cis that a clear biological answer to the question being posed is impossible.

Like… did you read the rest of the person’s comment? It’s pretty clear they are not anti-trans if you read the entire context and don’t just cherry pick a random sentence .

raptir,

If we’re going “so bad it’s good” I’ll give you The Core.

raptir,

You said disaster movie, not scientifically accurate documentary.

raptir,

Are enough people playing this to justify ongoing DLC? I thought it was panned and everyone said just play mods for 3/NV/4.

raptir,

You would need to look at the terms of service with your provider.

Republicans in New Hampshire Want to Ban Abortion After 15 ... Days | That’s just one day after at-home tests can confirm a pregnancy (www.rollingstone.com)

Republicans currently hold a trifecta in New Hampshire, with GOP majorities in the House and Senate and a Republican occupying the governor’s mansion. But control of the House — the largest in the country with 400 members — sits on a knife’s edge. There are 198 Republicans and 195 Democrats, three independents, and four...

raptir,

Makes sense, 24 hours to make a decision is plenty.

And of course women should be taking pregnancy tests daily just in case.

raptir,

Ah yes, the old contract model.

raptir,

You can’t just put your music on Spotify unfortunately. Google Play Music had the option to pay a small one-time fee to get your music up there, but they did away with that when they moved to YouTube Music.

If you’re unsigned you need to go through a service like TuneCore to get your music on any of the streaming services.

raptir,

Calling you bipolar alone isn’t gaslighting. Gaslighting is not just lying to you - it’s specifically trying to deceive you into questioning your own perception of reality. If she did things to make you think you were bipolar - say, printed out fake “brochures” about bipolar disorder that had symptoms listed that you exhibit - that could be “gaslighting.”

raptir,

Ounces become pounds, bro.

raptir,

Nobody talked about death metal so…

raptir,

I thoroughly enjoyed all of these today.

raptir,

So if Google sold its phones at a loss then Epic would have no problem paying the fee? Sure.

The more interesting part of the argument is saying that people will contact Microsoft/Nintendo/Sony for technical support with a game and expect them to help while Apple or Google would send you to the developer.

How did Lemmy World become the default instance?

World was already the biggest by far when I first started lurking back in July, and it’s just getting more dominant. Before, there was quite some diversity in the distribution of generic communities, but nowadays the vast majority of posts that reach the top are from over there....

raptir,

I think there are two big reasons…

  • During the big Reddit exodus, a lot of people were recommending lemmy.world.
  • It’s a general purpose instance. People tend to flock to those rather than more specific topical instances.
raptir,

Not really, they set a “minimum threshold” of unique annual listeners to get a payout. If a song has at least 1000 unique listeners per year it gets the same payout it did before. If it gets 999 it gets zero.

raptir,

No, they spun it that way by deceptively going on a rant about how many “songs get fewer than 1000 plays ever” and doing the math based on that in the “article,” but that’s not what the change actually was. If you read the details of the change below that, it is that they will no longer pay out at all for songs that get fewer than 1000 unique listeners per year.

You still aren’t talking a ton of money, but if each of 999 listeners streamed a song once per month, the artist could be losing close to $40 per song per year.

raptir,

It makes it so that I know some of my listens are just going to line Spotify’s coffers. I have a number of bands I listen to who are under even 500 monthly listeners. Even if they’re only getting a couple cents, I know they’re at least getting something from my listens on Tidal.

raptir,

Given that it’s Kiss, I’m sure they’ll be charging concert prices for people to go see a movie.

raptir,

Did you know that mastodons were relatively short? Despite being nearly 40% more massive than modern African elephants, the American Mastodon was 25% shorter on average!

raptir,

Don’t be afraid to customize your install with YaST. You can add/remove packages before you do the installation.

You’ll need packman if you need restricted codecs for video.

Update with zypper dup as a general rule.

raptir,

You must have missed the top comment where it was stated that publishers need to agree to have their games on GFN. Activision not only told Nvidia that it was okay to put their game on GFN, they likely had developers work with Nvidia to iron out any issues in creating the VM that it uses.

Wine/proton are unauthorized tools - most publishers don’t care, and some even encourage it and help to fix issues (i.e., No Man’s Sky), but it’s still not officially agreed to like GFN.

raptir,
