It always makes me chuckle a bit how internet censorship (at least in western countries and on a personal level (school and work networks excluded)) is almost always just done through DNS. I mean I’m sure not going to be the one to tell them how laughably ineffective that is, but it’s just funny.

I was 100% expecting a dark ending

I live in the country with Ampilatwatja and Jarlmadangah Burru. This is nothing

Not all of them. r/PublicFreakout (and its clone - r/ActualPublicFreakout) both have a fair bit of gore. r/IAmATotalPieceOfShit sometimes has some as well

90 whats?

Now I kinda want to write a full license, complete with all the legal jargon, that takes up 43 pages of space to say you can do whatever the fuck you want with this software

Best to go to Reddit for that. It’d cause so many problems, particularly for small instances

Don’t forget to upvote good segments and downvote bad ones. Segments that are downvoted enough get hidden or removed. That’s a pretty big part of how they prevent malicious people (possibly with outside instances) from trying to sabotage the network

Are spaces used in place of commas in regular casual conversations, too? In Australia, I’ve only ever seen them used in really formal documents like financial reports, never really anywhere else

I think the company should also be required to clearly state the amount of time they’ll keep supporting the game and will operate the servers for. If they decide to shut them down early, everybody should be given the choice to either receive a full refund or the non DRMd version of the game + the server software like you suggested.

In general I think all paid games should be required to clearly state the amount of time they’ll keep providing feature updates for, as well as support for new hardware, major bug fixes, and minor bug fixes. Although games that aren’t online and just reach EoL are still playable for quite some time, eventually there’ll be some breaking operating system or hardware change that will force the use of a virtual machine, compatibility software, or other types of emulation to keep playing. That might not happen for 50 years, at which point you probably don’t care, but still. I’d give more leniency to indie Devs and games made as passion projects, though.

Although obvious once you think about it, I don’t think most people realise or even think of the fact they will eventually not be able to play the game they’re buying. And these mega companies need to stop making games they dump 6 months after launch.

And MSIs motherboard control centre thingy. Its absolute garbage

Ironically when I want to be an NPC nobody interacts with, people decide to start interacting with me 🤦‍♂️

Vulve is my favourite company. Can’t wait for their new game store, stamp, to come out!

Thanks!

Heya, sorry for the necropost, but would you mind sharing how you’re doing on storage these days? I’m looking at spinning up a Lemmy instance of my own and I’m curious about the storage aspect on small instances

I guess the mods didn’t find this very funny, since they nuked it. Disappointing, because I was able to read it through the magic of caching and it made me crack up laughing

4k! What sorcery is this?

I once saw 2 blokes getting on the tram with half a tv. It was a 50" or so tv with the back plastic thing missing. They were both shirtless and both seemed to be completely out of it on something. I sort of concluded they ripped a tv off the wall but didn’t have a way to get it home, or to a pawn shop or wherever they were planning on taking it

Found it. It’s https://www.reverseimagesearch.com/. It doesn’t list as many as I thought, just google, Bing, Yandex, and Baidu

My last experience with bings reverse image search was in 2022 or so, so no vouches for its quality these days. I’ve had mixed results with tineye, but there was another one which I don’t even remember the name of that generated reverse search links for all the search engines, I think it even listed that Chinese one and a few others I’ve never heard of rather than being its own thing. I had decent luck with that, I found Bing still worked the best but I haven’t tried it since

Google lens definitely wins for object search though. Not the point of the post, I know, but it’s kind of funny how their reverse image search is dogshit but their object recognition is flawless
