The worst person you know just made a great point

I’m not a contributor to LibreWolf so I can’t speak with authority on it but I can’t imagine that they are so different from Firefox that they wouldn’t be able to just merge 99% of updates from FF with minimal effort.

Librewolf doesn’t just block Mozilla telemetry, it also has an easy to understand default for cookies and privacy settings so someone who isn’t a computer expert can rely on the librewolf’s defaults to keep trackers from being able to build a profile on you.

Tom’s Hardware, Ad Block Plus, paying for YouTube Premium as a “work around”?

Guys this content was by boomers for boomers

Man if there was only a convenient program that can be used to make mkv’s from optical media

Sounds like a scam to get VC money before it eventually turns back into old digg/current Reddit. I wouldn’t join it if I was looking for a good experience, I’d just stick with Reddit.

I’ll stay here instead

We still play UO every night. Historians have their Base Assault server going during the afternoons and there is usually a CTF and S&D server populated every night (which one it is varies)

We’d love to have some old players back!

Our local school opened up one of these programs during the pandemic. It’s a blessing but it only is for kids and only lasts 8 weeks during the summer

Well those artists consented to being assistants and having their works used. Not so much with these image training databases

If you want to use image generation to generate an image, go ahead. I sometimes do the same for placeholder images.

It’s not art though, it’s just plagiarism that’s been abstracted several times over. I could come up with a really cool search string for Google Images that has an awesome first result. But by downloading the first result and passing it off as my work isn’t art, it’s plagiarism.

If you want real art for your project, commission an artist to make it; or keep practicing until you find yourself good enough to make it.

I’m not gatekeeping art; the creativity, the effort, and the skills of the craft are the gatekeeper.

I’ll be here repping my Jayhawks. I didn’t participate in the community poll last season, just couldn’t watch enough games to be informed. I’ll probably bow out of the poll again this season but I’ll be here to contribute to the game day threads

Every moment the current administration wastes is immensely valuable to the American people. It’s when they are working that it’s bad for us

*dull and dim, whenever they have to be over dumb ol’ stupid Texas

If everyone from Reddit just went over to lemmy.world and sh.it.just.works instead of making accounts all over the fediverse and maybe even hosting their own instance, then we’d just have the same problems that we did with Reddit, just at a different domain.

The fediverse will grow in due time. But thinking of it in terms of supplanting Reddit, or replacing twitter isn’t a good mindset. Decentralized social media and activitypub are tools to build better experiences, not replace the enshittified entrenched ones.

Survival of the fittest is who is best at sexing not who is best at thinking

I think maybe you have it backwards people who are easily swayed/trusting of authority/gullible are going to be naturally drawn toward religion. Skeptics/those who don’t take things at face value are going to be naturally skeptical of it.

Religion doesn’t make you stupid but it’s very attractive to the sort

It doesn’t happen until you have your own kid who thinks they are smarter than you

I’m not too bothered by the recasting because after 15 years I doubt Toby Huss could do the Kahn accent exactly as it was either.

I do think that it didn’t have to be done. But it’s not a big deal so anti woke people should get over it too

I mean 1.) the network is still pretty small and so the ratio of creators are gonna be low because the audience is low.

2.) the discussions here are still good and engaging. Unless you mean that everyone is a leftist and therefore the same. That’s not even true unless you only follow communities on Lemmy.ml and that’s only because their admins will remove comments for not being leftist

Half-Life 1 was the peak of this genre for me
