  I remember that Paypal locked my account close to Christmas because I bought the product on a laptop using a tethered mobile access. Paypal detected that I was not using a standard connection and froze the account. That would be fine but even the support team at PayPal couldn’t remove that flag even if I provided my full identity etc.

  Since then I never used Paypal.

  What if I actually want to see the review bombing and it’s effect before buying the product ?

  Really, the more I think about this change, the less convincing it is. It will hide review bombing of games that might have warn you of something… I think it will just muddy and make the Steam way harder to assess and use.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam: Updates to User Review Scores Based on Language⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I personally don’t look forward to this new feature. I dont want my local language to be used. And that will be one more program that will constantly nag me about if I want to translate some review or only shows the one in my language by default.

  I just want to use my currency and being able to just speak English.

  I dont want steam to become like Firefox and decide for you that you do need some translations for stuff…

  Since I dont think the language you speak should have any relevancy to the quality of the game I have no interest for reviews that are not in English.

  So I just hope this “let’s localize for you everything” trend will stop.

  I dont want french reviews of French games made in france. I just want English reviews of games and the score for all reviews.

  Currently the localization of the reviews is the thing that I dislike the most with steam which goes to show how good I think the product is.

  There is tools like Lux meters that measures that.

  In that case I think the other commenter was suggesting that a lot of marketing bullshit can be misleading. So dont trust the marketing stuff and go for trusted reviewers.

  The brightness is an important value for a VP.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some good "frugal" movie viewing setups? (Recommendations)⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I personally have been using a BenQ W1070 for about 10 years. I couldn’t go without it. It’s constantly connected to my PC with a long HDMI cable and I just project on a clean white wall.

  I went through 5 lamps changing most of them myself so it’s rather not expensive if you just change the lamp without casing.

  I hear a lot of people say that you need a proper screen but I think it’s mostly bullshit at least for basic 1080p projector.

  Use online calculators for VPs to check the throw distance and everything is good and as long as the wall is white and smooth IMHO it’s fine for an already good viewing experience.

  The biggest mistake IMO for VP owner is to set it up on its own separate to their PC.

  My VP is just an extra screen I switch on when I need to watch something but it’s never complicated. I switch it on and move YT or VLC to that screen.

  A VP of good quality is really not that expensive if you change the lamp yourself and it provides a really comfortable way to watch content. Highly recommend them.

  For sound I went for a fairly common Logitech Z906 for 5.1 support.

  Honestly it’s a great setup I bought 10 years ago and I never regretted it.

  It’s just as insane for you to expect us to read between the line of a 4 line comment that only present AI as harmful.

  If you want to say that AI is both good and bad, that’s fine but then say that. It doesn’t have to be a book about it. You could have juste said AI can be harmful or good and that’s fine. Don’t act as if i’m asking for something unreasonable. You said one negative thing in a 4 line comment and feel personally attacked that we are unable to guess what positive thing you see in AI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy be like⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  First you should chill a bit.

  I know you think this will harm you and everyone you know,

  So this thing will harm you. But you are not describing AI as only negative ?

  You just say AI will harm you and suppose people assume you have positive thing to say about AI

  Where is the nuance toward AI in your comment please show it to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy be like⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  So everything related to AI is negative ?

  If so do you understand why we can’t have any conversation on the subject ?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy be like⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  May I ask for a link ? Never saw that in the communities I consult. Never. Or at least not above 5 downvotes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy be like⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  An AI could be demonstrably 30 times more accurate than a human in diagnosing a cancer on a scan Lemmy would still shit on it because it’s an IA :D.

  On Reddit I knew that the subject of gun control was not allowed to be talked about. Now I embraced Lemmy and I can’t talk no matter what about AI. It’s just a taboo subject. Apparently some people want to reject the tech entirely and think it will somehow just magically stay out of their lives. A very naive dream.

  So yeah Lemmy. Refuse the conversation, look away, I’m sure it will be fine.

  I found a 350€ OralB toothbrush in a shop recently in France.

  I couldn’t believe the amount of bullshit you have to cram in to up a toothbrush to that level of price.

  How are those surprlus “solving world hunger”?

  There is nothing really saying that in the wikipedia page. Just because a country has surplus at one point doesn’t mean it will fill the belly of someone at the other side of the world.

  Sorry but this seems like a massive simplification.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dune game⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How grindy is the game?

  I have multiple friends that told me that Conan exile was quite grindy and that they are not convinced by Dune because of that.

  It’s too bad because I think they would appreciate the game but are too concerned by the fact that it would take a lot of time to get good stuff.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and why is she in my toothpaste? 😡🤬😡⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My Canadian bro there is many countries who use both languages.

  Especially on products labels it’s not like only Canada will do English French labels.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and why is she in my toothpaste? 😡🤬😡⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How on earth am I suppose to guess a toothpaste is located in Canada just looking at its composition?

  There isn’t either any obvious clues on the country of origin.

  Well nevermind, I’m glad you guys get to enjoy the wonder of opening a Kinder Surprise.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and why is she in my toothpaste? 😡🤬😡⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  But I didn’t mention Canada and can’t see any mention on Canada.

  I assumed it was obvious that it was about the US because they are known to have banned Kinder Surprises as a choking hazard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and why is she in my toothpaste? 😡🤬😡⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I suppose a small child could swallow the cap of the toothpaste?

  Still pretty weird I don’t recall seeing this warning on toothpaste here in France. That being said we are big boys who are allowed to buy “Kinder Surprises”…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kid gave a reasonable answer without all the math bullshit⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Still, here in France it’s fairly common to hear people teachers are lazy because they have a lot of vacations. In reality they do work more than many other jobs it’s just that they get a lot of “homework”.

  My mom was every evening working at least 2 hours and that’s just after work. And as the head of school you already have to leave late your job. So if that’s just a chill job why isn’t more people going for it? It’s because it’s badly paid on top of long hours that can be very exhausting with kids. Also it’s a lot of responsibility to handle to just be in charge of so many children at a time.

  So basically, I’m the son of a teacher, I love sharing knowledge but there is no way I will even try to do this job. Well at least not before exhausting most of the other options.

  Just think about where you will be in life without going to school. I don’t think my life would be half as comfortable if a succession of teachers taught me how to learn, how to behave socially, how to share, how to argument, how to create…

  Right now a lot of countries are beefing up their military and it’s often at the expense of the schools/teachers… Which make me really sad. I expect teachers to be less skilled as time passes simply because there won’t be much people to accept that kind of job so only the “worse” teachers will get it.

  I think moderators think that since it’s a small community it’s bad to moderate the little content we got. Result is some content is so out of topic or just so unmoderated I just unsusbcribe to it.

  So yeah I think it’s counter productive to not moderate inadequate content because it’s a small community.
