Nvidia does the same shit for GPU drivers, it’s obnoxious

What if we could have a world that wasn’t powered by ads? I’d like to get past this “only one way to run the internet” train of thought.

I’m just so tired of ads, commercials and advertising in general. It’s exhausting.

I understand your take and mostly agree with you. I just want to emphasize I’m not trying to call anyone a dummy or anything, just that it’s OK to like what you like.

If companies aren’t going to cater to you, yeah that’s annoying in most scenarios.

If you ordered a cookie and didn’t get what you want, that sucks and is indeed frustrating.

However I don’t know what that has to do with anyone else. If someone wants to eat an almost raw cookie, or a too soft cookie or whatever, I don’t think that should bother you.

Can someone ELI5 how searx works and if it’s worth the hassle of hosting? I’m privacy conscious but not paranoid.

Unfortunately they’re always chasing the next thing. I think they didn’t have faith that the video game industry would stay strong and instead believed people would focus on playing mobile games. The reality is there’s room for both kinds of players, but Konami knows people will always gamble. To be fair, they’re still making games, but not really pushing the envelope or leading anymore.

Lol chill, it’s already billed as trash food, nobody sold it as caviar. If someone wants to eat like a raccoon, for the most part, it’s their God given right. No need to high horse it.

I thought the joke was making fun of the sexism, but maybe I’m giving the benefit?

The great arms race for your attention

I wonder if this is kind of how the Balatro dev feels

Did someone make paid horse armor yet? Lol

Sorry what? You know you can make Mac and cheese from scratch right? It’s not too difficult.

For people that may be confused or possibly surprised, although MV3 is a shitty Google thing, Firefox should still implement widely used APIs so developers can still write code once that works on (most) any browser. Having to write a “Firefox specific” Web app or extension would cause friction and limit adoption.

Heck naw brother, we eat on Easter too, that IS related

For fun context, Google “Microsoft Vortex Service”

I know you weren’t asking me, but to chime in, it’s safer to say that the circumstances of memeing are actually way more complex than we give credit. I’d argue that it’s rarely the case that a meme is just a meme. Situations where an event or a person becomes a meme can be totally misinterpreted, reinterpreted or otherwise change from reality. Memes are used tools, many times as propaganda, and who is in a meme possibly, does have an effect. Memeing is actually a big complex part of the human experience! Especially since proliferation of the internet.

Anyway, it’s interesting to think about.

Good to see people agree on this. The way that gambling in sports has flourished really targets and is detrimental to young men, IMO. I’ve noticed that younger men tend to feel it’s normal to risk a significant amount of money gambling on almost all sports, to include E-sports, when really it shouldn’t be something they think about constantly.

I like gambling as much as the next person, and I feel like you should be allowed to if you’re responsible, but I think we shouldn’t be glorifying gambling like it’s just something everyone does. Shame on all these celebrities using their status to trick younger people into gambling.

Is there an anti-MLM lemmy community like there used to be on reddit?

Listen, I see from what you said, what your worldview and values are, and I’m here to remind you that they’re wrong.

Lot of problems with the directions windows has gone or is going (cortana finally gone), but people need to chill if they think the OS is unusable or something.

Anecdotally I’m hoping SteamOS continues to progress how it has so there are even more reasons to not depend on Windows.
