you just underestimated these general instances of Lemmy

500~ people come to this forum a month

"I prefer a distribution which is supported by game publishers." feels like it sets bad expectations considering it's just "do you want a stable Debian/Ubuntu distro?" and 'game publishers' might be a little out of date with their wording/justification

We're definitely nowhere near "fuck it" levels, as the article says, we sure can make things a lot more awful if we decide now that we can't do anything about it anyway.
But maybe we need a stronger example than.. Bike lanes.. Though I get the point he's making.

What do you mean doing monotonous tasks for a week so you can get 2 bucks isn't engaging?!

With Linux still being 1.4% that's actually a lot less steam decks bought than I thought there'd be. Or I guess something fucky could be going on with what i assume is the majority of people with a steamdeck, those with Windows and a Steamdeck

Wasnt Jeff directing while Overwatch was experiencing 3 years of drought?
Spiritually I find it died way earlier, but I can see it being the 'official death' when he left

Entirely speculation, but I think this might be why some of the dominoes are already falling?
Like maybe all the ads pulled out of Twitter and saw that it didn't impact the ad companies very much?
If so, it could be the true end to Web 2.0

I'm kinda pissy cause the guy never even responded to being made aware of data like this and that
(i feel confident that he saw my comment cause he replied directly at my first one in the thread)

I specifically highlighted the spending effort on spez-hating

i'll admit, it would probably be healthier if you guys could move on now
like sure, keep posting about reddit stuff for the next month, there's probably relevant stuff to talk about, but there's no reason to obsess over spez this bad

as a sidenote, really hate how you need to tie either a google or facebook account to make a definition on this site

you're thinking of EMPRESS
Definitely presented as out of spite

Some people speculate that this is the cover-up persona to hide that they're actually a team with people who have worked on Denuvo themselves, and it certainly sounds more believable than this single woman managing to crack Denuvo in 14 days when every other cracker still in the business can't.
(but also some people are truly insane who knows)

Advertisers are likely to be much more willing to bank their ad dollars with Zuckerberg than smaller rivals.

I'm fine with any most thing that shows you cannot enable harm-to-discourse as much as Musk has. I would sooner them come to Zuckerberg than crawling back to Twitter because it didn't have an alternative. Twitter is very much a walking corpse right now, but something else coming along to snatch the could-be advertisers secure that it can stay in its fucking pit. (unless various sus governments still somehow see use in keeping it propped up)
