  With so many cops why would it rely on the honour system ?

  I mean it should be the cops kicking out people off bike lanes… We have assholes like that in the EU but they sometimes get a fine for it and eventually some stop doing that kind of shit.

  The problem is that it’s not enforced by your police forces.

  Is your lawnmower “laser-based” or something 🤔 ?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is coding possible on smart phones ?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I only code on T9 keyboards.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Swarm Simulator⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Not even a single screenshot of the game on the project page ? :/

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the difference between http and HTTPS ?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Correct, SSL was deprecated in 2015 in favor of TLS.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨is our battery/junk drawer dangerous?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If that’s not lithium batteries, I think it’s “ok”.

  Still just in case, you should probably remove the tools that are in this drawer 😀

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought that in the US you could say pretty much anything beside :

  • Threatening to kill the president
  • Diffamatory stuff

  Am I misunderstanding how it works ?

  What do you mean by “repercussions and consequences” ?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reckless Ben and the Blatant Corruption - Protest the courts. The Police. The Corporate HQ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  In France we had an ex-president in prison not long ago. Because he was condemned for corruption and receiving money from Muammar Gaddafi. So yeah corruption will always be there to some extent.

  The very concerning thing for the US is that this corruption at the top is getting widespread and there will be a point where it will be completely self sustaining. And the American justice system seems to be completely unable to push back on it. Even worse its starting to get corrupted itself with the “anti-weaponization fund” attempt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bricks and Minifigs Corporate and Police Coverup⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m all for the collector to recover his Legos but are we sure about the investigative power of “reckless ben” ?

  It’s probably better than hoping for the justice system to act… But at the same time the main investigator looks like a perpetually high shaggy rogers.

  What if he ruins the owner chance to win any lawsuits by his actions ?

  People should be careful with vigilantes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m cynical… I lost access to Battlefield 6 when I moved to linux.

  And on BF6 they purposefully block linux pretexting it makes cheating too easy.

  Arc Raiders, or Rocket League let me play without issue. So despite the growth of linux gaming there is still businesses that will fully block that avenue…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because it was announced right in the middle of an e-sport event for Rocket League.

  So the reporting is accurate here. Epic just decided Rocket League would be the technology preview for their new engine.

  Supposedly, Rocket League had around 6 to 8 millions daily players in mid 2025.

  So a lot of people care about RL and also UE6 too obviously.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Interesting, I must be misinformed, someone told me it only worked on heroic with the anticheat etc. And that the linux build is “preventing” to get the modern windows build on linux.

  I will try again on steam. Also I noticed my controller driver is loaded by steam… So it works only if I have steam up and running anyway.

  There is a “steam-devices” linux package I need to look into…

  Anyway, thanks for the feedback !

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Supposedly UE6 will kind of be UE5 but with better optimization for multi threading.

  And to my great concern it should be much more connected to UEFN and all the fortnite universe…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah the “authentication” can be super long. Sometimes you are connected to the server and get to see your future team getting wrecked 2v3 while you are authenticating.

  Not a big deal since it’s mostly an issue in casual but annoying nonetheless.

  I’ll be honest I expected them to fully block linux via the EasyAnticheat but they didn’t. So for now it remains functional but on UE6 and new code they might try to dump the linux support.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. The steam linux build is dated many years ago.

  You need heroic launcher to properly play RL on linux.

  You can setup a steam shortcut starting it in heroic though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What is my “unpopular opinion” in my comment ?

  All I see is me saying that no subjects should be downvotes just for their subject rather than a disagreement on a unpopular opinion.

  I’m not saying you should not downvote content you disagree with. I’m saying that no matter what is said about AI it’s getting downvoted for the sole reason that it is about AI.

  Again I was not expressing a clearly unpopular opinion around here that AI is good, yet I’m still downvoted just because that conversation is AI adjacent…

  I sure hope saying all subjects should be freely talked about as long as its within the rules of that instance is not an unpopular opinion.

  And yes, I do think massive downvotes for not even taking a stance or an opinion on a matter is a pretty big disruption of discourse.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I never talked about promoting it.

  Just letting people talk about it without immediately downvoting it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m sure preventing people from talking about AI on Lemmy will stop that plague really quickly.

  I have never seen such blatent censorship about a subject than AI on Lemmy. I dont care about AI so whatever but really stopping people to talk about a subject is the most stupid solution to a problem.

  Putting it under the rug will not work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shapez 2 - 1.0 Launch Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I played Early Access and even as an avid factorio player I wasn’t convinced.

  There is something that makes it meaningless in the fact we are just building shapes.

  In Factorio, if I create a battery factory I just automated a core component for a specific range of items and technologies.

  In Shapez, you make an arbitrary shape and that’s it.

  It wasn’t for me.

  Now I will give it another chance and I totally understand that to some it might be a purer form of factory management games, but to me it will probably lack purprose.

  Interested to check the Manufacture mode though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon started hiding ratings for some products⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Like Steam does :p ?

  Et least it’s opt out I think but still…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How did the gun buy back program work did you get a gift card or cash or something? How effective was this? Did this even make a dimple in crime?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In what country ?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Asked LA Fitness to cancel my membership, they offered to freeze it for $10/month instead⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey you should check out the Lafay method I mention.

  It’s a method without any specific equipment required.

  Most of the increased difficulty is managed by how long you rest and the posture for the exercise.

  That said you need something to suspend under.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Asked LA Fitness to cancel my membership, they offered to freeze it for $10/month instead⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would wager you can emulate any exercise you do at a gym at home.

  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calisthenics

  There is a well known method for that designed by Olivier Lafay.

  It doesn’t require any specific equipment and can be completely done at home.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's going to happen to gas stations as cars electrify?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I suppose we could also see in the future more cars that can swap their battery in charging stations.

  IMO that’s the more long term use of these stations. Instead of buying gas you would swap for new batteries.

  Gas stations are often well placed for refuelling so might as well repurpose them to do that but for electric cars.

  Electric scooters with swappable batteries work super well in urban areas. I’m convinced once this tech is deployed on most cars it will trivialise long trips in electric cars.

  This and electrified highways would be amazing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨JD Vance visits Milan, Italy⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s them applying the same stray as in the US even though they are in Milan and the roads are twice as narrow.

  I suppose they think there is so many cars it would be hard to know in which the couch fucker is. But still you are correct to say that convoy could be easily completely blocked. And in that case you could have an army to defend it it would be a very bad situation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No. Recently I played a bit using a friends mumble server. And it’s a friend that is already privacy conscious. But these friends are not the norm. They are the exception.

  Interesting to see Teamspeak evolved but still you have to pay to host a server so that’s a huge difference.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A federation based discord would be amazing !

  But still that’s a big challenge as voice chat will be costly to host.

  Also out of curiosity do you aim for something that would connect through the fediverse ?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For context my country (France) is trying to pass a law that forbids the use of social networks to users younger than 15yo. So I suppose this move from Discord is partly due to that.

  Now that being said I would hope the verification process will have much more scrutiny in Europe than it would in the US.

  I would definitely not be happy about it but if they are not allowed to keep any of the verification data afterwards it could be “acceptable”. But if I have the feeling they keep any data I will actively look into building a Stoat instance and try the even harder task of convincing my friends to switch over.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well yes, I would say it’s very much an integral part of mt social life.

  I spend a lot of time with my gamer friends and it revolves around our discord servers.

  We even have a discord servers dedicated to our role play sessions.

  IMHO Discord is a bit more than just a voice chat app. It’s also rooms with persistant chats. It’s the ability to share media etc.

  Also their noose reduction tech is top notch.

  I knew when I got in that it would be another “Gmail” for me. It’s great but you have to give a bit of your soul to it and I knew it would enshitify eventually.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord will restrict your account next month unless you scan ID or face⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sure.

  But what are you replacing it with ?

  I tried Mumble and Teamspeak in the past and it’s pretty far from the same level of comfort.

  Don’t take that the wrong way though, I’m all for supporting open alternatives, I’m just saying you have to think about the alternatives too.

  I just saw something about Stoat.chat but a lot of people will have to bear the cost of self hosting these servers.

  I know I will think carefully before slamming the door on discord.
