HOMR!

One Groom? Two Grooms?

Radical!

You know, like how money works

This is one of those things I stay out of.

It’s not healthy for kids. But they enjoy it. But it’s definitely used by China for spying. But people should know better than to put private stuff on there.

However the bill I’m against, they put a lot of internet spying in there too in the name of saving the children. So…

Yeah we’ll just see how it turns out

I don’t think it’s that simple. Cortana came out too late, well after Google and Apple’s assistants had fully taken over. Their speakers were large and clunky. To compensate they forced it in front of everyone, adding it to everything just like copilot. it’s just their poor approach to marketing, they think shotgunning it everywhere is a smart idea.

I think they’re going to face the same issues with copilot. I think it may have moderate success, but everyone I know goes to ChatGPT, they don’t use copilot. I see a lot of resentment too about it popping up everywhere, and not just from the super techie people here - but average users too. It just feels the same as Cortana. The problem is that it is cool tech, they just don’t understand how to market it well. ChatGPT is simple, it’s cool, it’s right there when you need it. Microsoft makes their products somehow always uncool, not fun to work with, and annoying.

I read fellowship after seeing the movie, the movie is what got me into the books and I read all of them as soon as I was done with the Fellowship movie because I had to know what happened, and I was like, 12. Anyway, it made it really interesting to me because I was like 17 YEARS?! Gandalf was gone for YEARS?! Then he just showed up again one day and was like “hey remember me it’s been 17 years anyway the end of the world is coming and you gotta fuck off to Mordor now”.

I’m actually flattered that I have this… reputation on Lemmy lol.

Personally, I don’t care if celebrities come and join, even Taylor. Honestly that’s one of the reasons I’m okay with threads starting to federate, I see celebrities joining there and then we can sub from our instances. Best of both worlds imo.

Backed into a corner? Don’t know how to make an argument? Hey we’ve all been there. Just say it’s about the children! That means you get to win!

Good observation, I bet you’re onto something…

Glad it can be of use!

I don’t think it’s a huge deal, we’ll either know they’re legit or not. Care to weigh in @MargotRobbie@lemmy.world ?

One good thing IMO about threads federating, that we get the celebrities, we know they’re verified, but I don’t have to join corpo social media.

It’s meant to be a stretch. Star trek has always done sci-fi twists on modern day problems. It’s meant to be “Why is it not weird for this sci-fi thing to happen, but weird when it happens in our every day life.”

Terry Farrell also knew full well when she joined that she would be playing a non-binary role through the show, and did so proudly. They also pretty much call it out directly in “Rejoined” when Dax comes in contact with her previous lover.

I don’t care for google’s latest tech pet project. I would downvote it on reddit or here. It’s not revolutionary tech, and knowing Google they’ll decommission it in 2 years anyway. So, I downvote.

I up vote things I find interesting. This is not one of those things.

Looking at your past posts you have a lot of good ones, the elastic one is really interesting. Idk why you’re upset about one dude, overall your posts have been good. Don’t let one unpopular post rile you up.

It’s been Microsoft’s standard practice. Instead of focusing on their core item - games and the game experience - they keep following the latest gimmicks and trying to shove random products in where no one wants them.

A few examples:

• Xbox One focused on media. Where media was a great thing to add, watching Netflix, even TV, they made the entire thing about media, and gaming took a backseat.
  • Media should have been an obvious “and it doubles as a streaming device!” instead of the primary focus
• In addition they forced the kinect early on. It wasn’t until horrid sales and backlash did they finally release a console without it
  • They could have sold it as a great arcade system, or a family add-on for the living room, but again they forced something people didn’t want
• Windows 8 and their freaking tiles.
  • “Tablets are pretty big and we missed the boat there, what if everything was a tablet?!”
• Cortana. A fun assistant that was genuinely pretty helpful, that could have bolstered their offerings, instead forced on every single device and plastered on every page.
• Finally, we arrive at copilot. Which, how many times do we have to keep teaching you this lesson old man?

I honestly tried to find one, but Google and Bing’s horrid SEO means all I can find is endless trash articles about today’s tweet. I wish the internet wasn’t stupid now and I could actually search for things

All awesome, but remember that sharing is up to the developer. So mostly valve and indie games will allow this. Don’t expect the new dragon age, any ea, Ubisoft, or other greedy studio to allow this.

Thanks l, that all makes sense. I’ll keep an eye out

Fair warning, you’ll need a metric fuckload of Quickwire

I have a manual process for admitting people, do I need to do anything if I know exactly who is on my instance, or do I need to do anything to protect my instance from other bad acting instances (beyond defederating, which I do when I notice a lot of spam). Any queries you recommend?

Personally, I am playing Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age 2 on easy. They come from an era where if you aren’t suffering through it then you must really suck. Personally, I don’t have time to fight the same boss for an hour only to die when he gets down to the last 5% and start over again, I only get a few hours after work to game. However, the story is honestly pretty good, and I recommend them - if you play on easy.
