Who’s got that copy-pasta about drinking verification cans to play their games? I think that fits here.

You aren’t “building community” either, you are dictating how other people are supposed to think while doing your level best to beat your moral high-horse to death. Stop putting people in boxes for them and get fucked with this cyber-hippy bullshit.

I am most definitely not on the same team as people that use chatbots so often they start to mimic their slop-style writing techniques. Worry about yourself, you don’t get to decide what team I am on, tyvm.
Also, I am not “just being an ass”, I am paraphrasing MIT scientific research.

How?? And also what does 111 and 37 have to do with 1317?? I’m so out of the loop on this I feel like the revolution could be announced and I wouldn’t notice because of all the code work…

on GrapheneOS Isn't Happy With Google Over Pixel's Widening Head Start in c/opensource@lemmy.ml · 2d ago
This has always been a thought in the back of my head regarding GrapheneOS and why I never bought into the fan hype around it. Google has always been 100% in control of the door letting these AOSP projects function and they have been slowly closing the door for ages now. It will be fully closed at some point.

Yes, it has been scientifically proven that you are getting dumber by using an LLM regularly to do your thinking for you. Congratulations.

on Devastated father says his 9-year-old son spent $118,000 on YouTube ad campaigns for his Minecraft channel using a company credit card — bill racked up in just three weeks was supposed to be one $20 in c/technology@lemmy.world · 6d ago
The problem there is that the adult made the account and started the transactions and (presumably) completed all verifications required. This looks an awful lot like the parent is primarily at fault, doing just a little bit of sparkling embezzlement for his kid’s youtube career.
Now, the shoe on the other foot, I don’t think 9 year-olds should be allowed to be “content creators”. The whole thing just feels like child labor modernized. Which ends up in a strange place when I think about child actors, because it also feels like forced child labor but everyone seems to be OK with that apparently…

I was thinking the same thing… At my job if you have a company card, you have to explain ever cent spent on it every month at a minimum. How did he not have a difficult conversation with someone when he bought fucking Robux on the company card??

on DigitalOcean contributes 3 million and joins the Omacom (Omarchy) Foundation in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world · 9 Sep 2026
I think Omacom is just the small fish “player” wanna-be’s trying to do what the big guys are doing with AI. Playing 3 card monte with a few million dollars running the same few bucks around in circles so many times a quarter they all get to make numbers go big on balance sheet in the hopes of getting new real money from idiot “investors” before the FTC (or other regulatory body) wakes up and remembers they are supposed to regulate something occasionally and catches on.

on Grandma finds the secret knitting app in c/lemmybewholesome@lemmy.world · 8 Sep 2026
I don’t think they are saying no one has ever used excel to make knitting patterns, but there is also no way anyone just opens Excel, having no idea what it is or what it does and 1) immediately recognizes how to use it for knitting patterns; and 2) assumes that is the intended and only use of the software.

on KytyPS5 (PS5 Emulator) can now run GTA V at 60fps for few minutes before crashing in c/games@lemmy.world · 7 Sep 2026
You already don’t need to emulate the entire hardware system like you would with a PS3, but you still require a complex translation layer.
I think this is their point, just worded better. Wine and Proton are not “emulators”, but translation layers like you are describing.
Although I have no idea what they are talking about in regards to virtualization - being able to install Linux on a PS5 doesn’t get me any closer to running PS5 games on Linux, and I can’t even imagine the virtualization headaches to get the PS5 OS running in a VM with enough access to the hardware to not blow chunks (and honestly sounds a lot closer to true hardware emulation than not).

on I'm sick of hearing and even reading about GTA 6 in c/games@lemmy.world · 7 Sep 2026
Does it count if you buy it but never even launched it? That could be a significant portion of these things, but I kind of assumed the game had to have been launched at least once to start tracking achievements…

[…] one achievement that popped up related to story that only 18% of players had gotten.
I see this a LOT for some reason. Like, there are lots of games I play where the achievements make me think a majority of people that bought and played the game only did so for 30 minutes at most. I’ve seen achievements like “completed the tutorial” (completed by 60% of other players) and been like, wtf, 40% of people never even finish the tutorial?? And it seems to trend down from there. I wonder what that means often. Maybe people are playing the games in such a way that the achievements don’t register? Or there really are a ton of people buying games, playing them for 5 minutes, and then never touching them again??

Ads are basically how all the bad things on the internet propagate. I do not understand the people that are technically savvy but do not run ad blockers in 2026. I wish the companies showing the ads were actually held accountable for what the ads showed so maybe they would care about shit like this.

Hahahahahaha, the government wants us only using state approved routers probably to make sure we are all using the one that let them watch us have sex in weird monochrome sonar-vision. We live in a surveillance state more every day and research like this is giving the FBI a fucking hard-on.

on Woman Calls Out Doctor Wearing Smart Glasses During Consultation Where She Had To Take Off Her Clothes: 'They Need To Be Banned' in c/technology@lemmy.world · 13 Aug 2026
It is really upsetting that we can’t get actually good “smart glasses”. Like, glasses that have a little screen projected on the lenses and can do searches and stuff for you on the fly, or display text like a script or something, or watch a video, or see your music playlist…
Why does everyone trying to make “smart glasses” feel compelled to include a fucking hidden camera?? And now it’s even worse with the AI riddle surveillance state we are living in. I won’t even be a little surprised to find out that Meta’s pervert glasses are being co-opted by Flock to add even more cameras to their “safety” network…

Doctors aren’t writing their notes either way
This is far from a universal truth. While it’s true that local professional medical transcriptionists are much rarer today than they were 20 years ago as a lot of doctors started using software (I remember when “Dragon: Naturally Speaking” really hit the stage everyone thought it would be revolutionary), in my experience there are a lot less doctors even using transcription these days. Some of the old timers still do since they never really bothered to learn to type, but a lot of them just type into a computer in the exam room with patients.
Maybe that’s a regional thing, I don’t know, but it is definitely the norm in my part of the world.

on Take-Two CEO Says We'll All Be Streaming Our Games In 3 Years in c/games@lemmy.world · 10 Aug 2026
Franchises like Battlefield and Call of Duty are way down the charts from the free to play shooter games.
I think a big part of that is they are usually monetized the same (or even more aggressively) as the free to play games, but you also have to pay $60 up front every couple of years to keep playing because they come out with a new one (nuking any community they previously had built, further fracturing their community). It’s like they watch other games make bank on a concept and monetization system and think they can do the same thing, but they only copy the bad parts and then wonder why it doesn’t make them billions in a just a couple years.
Thank you, Hero.
