  • The post itself is reasonable quality and informative so I find it upvote worthy. If a post is low quality or a shit post then I downvote.

    To me the karma system is about quality. Not an "I agree/disagree" button.

    For comments I only down vote obvious trolls, bigots/racism etc.

    Ubisoft CEO responds to the Stop Killing Games petition, stating the publisher is 'working on' improving its approach to end-of-life support, but that 'nothing is eternal'

  • I mean, from a business/greed point of view I totally understand why they dont support this.

    But then I remember I don't give a shit about soulless mega corporations that only exist to please shareholders. And I don't shed a tear for shitty business practices that shouldn't be allowed in the first place. Like mandatory online for single player games and removing local play capability for every multiplayer game.

  • Giving Up on Element & Matrix.org

  • The thing is... What alternatives are there? Signal can't be trusted (on the very same website there is an article about it). I'm not using closed source alternatives, Simplex is kinda shady too tbh and I'm not even sure I could get anyone to use it.

    I don't like Matrix/Element either but sadly its the best open source chat solution we have.

  • Yeah and its not like anyone is trying to stop him from doing so.

  • Ah using a VPN by any chance? Its a really old post about him. This Lemmy post reminded me of it.

  • Reddit has become worse and worse in the last couple of years.

  • True, but at least on Lemmy you can switch instances. Or switch to PieFed, or use any other media that supports activitypub.

    Reddit is reddit. You can't just go on another platform and "connect" to a subreddit.

  • FairPhone can run Postmarket OS, eOS, iodeos, calyxos and lineageos.

    Some have longer support than others. Also you can buy separate parts for their phones and they are modular.

  • Elon Musk announces plan to make 'America Party'

  • It might kill off the Democrats so then you will have two extreme right wing parties! What could go wrong?

  • Youtuber PewDiePie is going all in on deGoogling and the Steam Deck is one of the surprising tools that's helping him to 'escape'

    Jump

  • I know it seems kinda ironic. But the way to reach lots of people is to post on YouTube. If you want to reach people and stop them from using google you're not going to reach them on some obscure platform that no one uses.

    And the people using those obscure platforms have already degoogled so your basically preaching to the choir if you use them.

  • 'Technofascist military fantasy': Spotify faces boycott calls over CEO’s investment in AI military startup

  • Oh you were talking about social media. I was talking about music services.

    Fair enough then. I agree there is no excuse to still use X

  • Doesnt calyxos also work on fairphone

  • So what is there for normies? YouTube which is also owned by a fascist company. Deezer which is shit. Apple which is another fascist company that supports trump. Tidal which has also had its fair share of controversy ( not paying artists), shit ui etc.

    And if you mention the fediverse people will look at you like you speak an alien language.

  • OpenAI Signs $200 Million Deal with US Pentagon, Raising Alarm

    Jump

  • So since I'm not really using any of these ai tools. Can someone explain to me if openai is "open source" as it suggests? If so can't you just see the source code in case they try to ruin it?

    I guess an AI can never be truly open in a way? I know this is probably a red flag but I know that a lot of Linux distros which are completely open source are government funded too.

  • Trump declares Democrats have crossed the line.

  • Imagine calling someone out for his looks in a professional setting. In most places that would get you fired or sued.

  • Plenty of people who voted for the republicans are poor as shit. Selfishness doesn't stop downwards at being rich.

    Voting for a party just because you want others to suffer more than you do is pure selfishness too.

  • Is the Steam Deck getting outdated soon? Should I wait for the next gen?

    Jump

  • Here is my opinion. I absolutely love playing oblivion on my gaming laptop with RTX4080. It looks gorgeous and so do a lot of games.

    That said, I'd rather play on the deck with somewhat less graphics and chill on the couch after a long day of work. I just love the portability. Performance is okay for most games (it even plays oblivion okayish with reasonable graphics). A lot of games are optimized pretty well for it.

    I just see it as an open source switch you can do and play anything you like on. I have tried windows on it too but personally it has no benefit for me so I use steamOS.

    Games I play on it: Oblivion remastered Borderlands 3 Risk of Rain 2 Elden Ring GTA V

    I also stream from my PlayStation 5 to my deck with chiaki4deck.
