Just like nuclear technology is no longer a threat to humanity, right? We’re dang near a hundred years there.
- Comment on Lemmy users who say that Lemmy users are smarter than Reddit users 1 day ago:
If you really want a community to take off, you have to basically schedule yourself to make content there.
The lessons from every group I’ve grown (and haven’t) is that consistency is key. You have to develop the habit in other people, and it might take a long time to start.
If you want to be a Twitch streamer, for instance, you have to do it at the same time every day.

Kind of. I don’t think the Internet will ever return to the heyday of Reddit.
Once governments and groups recognized that social media actually does move public opinion, that was the end of good, anonymous social media.
The ways to bring some of that back aren’t great. A community where everyone’s verified is much better, but it’ll be quite different from the Reddit days where you’d have (usually real) ridiculous subject matter experts chiming in on random threads.
You don’t get that with a small, verified population. And when you don’t have verification, well forever now have effectively psyops intending to influence you.

Good luck with the timing. The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.
- Comment on Silly goose 1 week ago:
That might be true. But it’s important to note that we want the world to be more kind to everyone, and not universally unforgiving.

stickers that say they accept Monero
If you’re holding the speculative asset you have incentive to promote the use of that asset.
How many people do you think actually pay with monero?

I was unsure and checked the rules there.
- You can post about power trippin’ in any social media, not just lemmy. Feel free to post about reddit or a forum etc.
You should make a Roku community on Lemmy if there isn’t one already and post the fix there. Yeah, maybe nobody will see it, but maybe they will. Especially if they saw the content on Reddit and can’t find it anymore, they might look here. And that’s the only way we’re gonna get that shit off of Reddit.

I wonder how good AI is at deobfuscating code. It seems like the kind of thing it might be good at.
- Comment on New World will stop receiving updates following Amazon layoffs 5 weeks ago:
The game would have been appropriately hyped if it weren’t for a few massive fuckups.
-
Resource gathering was supposed to be a cat & mouse game. But the potential PvP while gathering resources doesn’t appeal to the masses, so marketing added a “you can’t touch me” PvE flag.
-
Item duplication. There were exploits that allowed item duping. They didn’t reset the economy after those exploits were addressed, and they didn’t catch everyone.
-
They decided the content was too easy (especially given the duped gear above) and made everything much harder after a couple weeks. Again, no server reset. So if you didn’t get in in the first couple weeks and duplicate some items in that time, you were forever behind.

Sometimes you get a new dream machine that has internal ipv6 disabled by default and only your matter over WiFi lights stop working, but you think they’re thread, which shouldn’t leak ipv6 past the otbr. So you work on getting them reconnected to the Internet by removing your firewall policy that kept them local, but Ubiquity now has Zones as well, and your dumbass did a little of each. Plus, for some reason, they’ll negotiate an ipv4 and drop off the network, and there’s no easy way to identify a bulb by it’s IP or mac address. It’s not like the Mac addresss is printed on the bulb, so you try to judge by signal strength. But then your buddy who’s been helping you troubleshoot for the past couple hours tells you to link him the lights from your order history, so only then do you realize they’re matter over WiFi and not matter over thread, and enabling ipv6 locally does the trick. Now you’ve just got a set up your automations again, because you had the bright idea to put actual switches in the walls that depend on home assistant, and the automations don’t know the new entities so none of your wall switches work until that’s fixed. And eventually you’ll get around to reinstating that firewall policy to block them from the Internet, but not today because you’ve spent long enough for one day on fighting with your light bulbs.

Not sure about that. It can be both.
- Comment on It's depressing, man 2 months ago:
I wrote a paper for English in college, which I wouldn’t write the same way today.
I started with a shocking, racist statement that I held up as an example of things that aren’t acceptable. I spent the rest of the paper both refuting that and drawing parallels to other things that shouldn’t be acceptable.
My shocking statement was effectively taken at face value, and I was originally given a D on the paper. I went back and argued it into a B, because it really wasn’t what it seemed at first, if you just read it.
That attention getter sure got attention though. I don’t remember if that was part of the assignment.
I tend to have this writing style often enough that my super power is convincing people to do the opposite of whatever I’m advocating for. There’s at least one famous Lemmy example from me.
