I think matchmaking should be done on a per-game basis (or at least it’s a different issue.)
I’m more referring to how players connect, such as having friend lists, joining those friends, and the profiles we see in and out of games.
This protocol looks interesting, and I’ll have to learn more about it.
I think Ubuntu made sense back in the day when Debian wasn’t as user-friendly.
Now that Debian is, it looks like Ubuntu is trying really hard to just be as commercialized as possible.
I still don’t understand the logic behind their paying for updates for certain programs when Debian doesn’t require it.
Culture, which can change.
I agree. It’s great to have machines do the work we don’t want to do so we can do other things with our lives.
We just need to get over this mentality that those who have more deserve more and those who have less deserve less.
So… do nothing about it?
Not really.
Personally, I’ve found AI is wrong about 80% of the time for questions I ask it.
It’s essentially just a search engine with cleverbot. If the problem you’re dealing with is esoteric and therefore not easily searchable, AI won’t fare any better.
I think AI would be a lot more useful if it gave a percentage indicating how confident it is in its answers, too. It’s very useless to have it constantly give wrong information as though it is correct.
“Designers” desperate to stay relevant and make their worthless degrees seem worthwhile.
I actually just use my phone for internet and haven’t had a landline ISP for 2 years now.
Visible, $25/month has saved me so much money and they even sent me a free phone.
Everyone is different.
I personally think copyright and patent laws need to die. If you can’t protect your own secrets, don’t rely on taxpayer resources to do it for you.
White-collar workers were cool with machines and poorer nations taking blue-collar jobs. Now that it threatens them and their money, the hypocrisy is on full display.
Only because it would hurt their bottom line.
Funny how we can only win when it’s corporations fighting each other.
if it ever becomes more popular the same assholes that ruin other online experiences will also wind up here.
That’s kind of the glory of the fediverse, though. We can have communities using the same protocol that never interact with each other.
There can be completely separate fediverses that cater to different people.
I’ve thought about this. Essentially, whenever a channel gets moderately successful they will be contacted by various agencies trying to ‘sponsor’ them.
All the people that make video for fun hardly get seen, and if they do it’s not long before they sell out.
I totally agree. Corporate interests and rampant consumerism have ruined the majority of the internet.
Glad we still have refuges like lemmy though to take solace in. Proportionally we’re a smaller part, but absolutely I’d say we’re about the same or larger than in the 2000s.
I want to install Debian on the USB drive from my currently running OS, Manjaro Linux.
I don’t want to have to boot from Debian installation media to install it on the USB drive.
It’s all by design.
It’s my understanding that backwards-compatible PS3s actually had PS2 hardware in them.
We can play PS2 and PS1 games if they are downloaded from the store, so emulation isn’t an issue. I think Sony looked at the data and saw they would make more money removing backwards compatibility, so that’s what they did.
Thankfully the PS3 was my last console before standards got even lower and they started charging an additional fee to use my internet.
They already have the advantage of not being Nvidia
That’s just because they release worse products.
If AMD had Nvidia’s marketshare, they would be just as scummy as the business climate allows.
In fact, AMD piggybacks off of Nvidia’s scumbaggery to charge more for their GPUs rather than engage in an actual price war.
I don’t know if you’d call that skeuomorphism, and we have icons that are similar.
I’m not sure what you would call the opposite of ‘flat’ in terms of these designs, but I think that’s what you’re referring to.
