It we were living off the good graces of another species who raised us, I guess we'd have no choice in the matter if we were fed other humans, just like these animals
It is endlessly frustrating that companies have universally decided that they won’t let people say “no” to stuff, ever. There are no longer options to reject stupid-ass new “features”, only postponement until next time you open the app/website/program. They’ll continue pestering you for the rest of your life. I...
Heaps of stuff that's positioned as the "alternative of X" feels like garbo. For example when I'm forced to use Pinta editor / GIMP over Photoshop when I'm using Linux. I get the expectation can't be to have feature parity but some of these alternatives feel really poor
So it creating an exe and hiding it from the task manager is fairly normal then? From the screenshots another bloke pasted on here, that looks pretty suspicious
Used to see that mentality heaps on Twitter, that X isn't up for debate etc. People should really go back there if that's how they want to engage in their online discourse, the point of the fediverse isn't to be another echo chamber.
The issue occurs when purported facts are just merely opinions or regurgitating talking points, you used to see it heaps on Twitter, someone alright posting their mini rant and sprinkling in "facts"
Great to see baulders gate 3 doing well. A perfect storm of development conditions and we get rewarded at the end of it with a fantastic game. Hopefully heaps of extra extra content down the track to keep it going

Be super keen for foldable devices overall. I just can't get past the huge obvious fold in the middle of the screen. It's gotten better but I'm hoping eventually it evolves to the point where it's seamless. Being able to pull out a phone and then unfold it to get a tablet UI would be super handy for articles
With the way some people treat the fediverse I'd argue that this place as a whole is well on its way to becoming an echo chamber.
The number of posts I've seen along the lines of "hey I don't like x, can we de-federate" is shocking. People need to have some level of accountability and block people / communities / domains for themselves without resorting to pulling out the de-federation ban-hammer which affects everyone else on the instance
Perfectly fair. People coming from Reddit specifically need to be eased into the fediverse and saying "whoops sorry we're full / closed" isn't great.
Ideally if we want things balanced people should be on multiple instances but I'd rather several slower, bigger instances in the meantime until the community expands.
People hear from others that Lemmy is the place you go and when searched for you end up here. Having registrations closed doesn't sound like a great idea when most people have no idea about the fediverse
