To be honest, selling copied games also paid for my games, my CD writer and then some when I was 14-15. Took ages to copy a single CD, and it would regularly fail, but friends happily paid me 10 euro for a working copy of the latest fifa.
Screenshots are so much faster than a link though on a phone. I do crop mine before sending, but I send a lot of Screenshots in my group chats.
Where I work, it’s a non issue. As long as it doesn’t impact your work and nobody notices it (foul odor or behaviour), nobody could care less.
I’ll give you the csgo gambling. That is fucked up.
But their refund policy is best in class. I don’t care how they got there, it’s better than shops give me for actual physical games…
I’d love to see what you consider an alternative better storefront.
Elaborate?
It’s easy to just spout generic steam hate, but I’d love to hear what steam does worse than other pc storefronts.
Scroll past them Ignore them
You don’t mind seeing naked titties if they’re from some random model stolen online? But lord, the horror if a girl a tries to make a living from selling pictures and a fantasy without getting ripped off by big companies.
The brainpower some lemmings expend on absolutely trivial things always keeps boggling my mind tbh.
While it was an interesting read, the article is quite outdated and the author is overly negative of literally everything, not just privacy. If a browser has a glowy button, it’s horrible because it’s too fancy… I feel for the guy…
I’d just take a clear stance on something right from the bat, doesn’t matter what. AI is always needlessly careful when you ask it to pick a favorite color/food/soccer team/religion/skincolor/country/…
I tried using it. Putting my phone down on any surface would trigger it. Made my biometrics completely useless. Too sensitive on my device, even on the lowest settings :(
My Instagram is full of fitness content (and good looking people tbh). Nothing comes even remotely close on pixelfed. No offence to federated social media, but we all ain’t good looking :) (or suck at using filters…)
It’s still a very long way off from taking over Instagram.
Lemmy has a hardon for FOSS, and an irrational hatred for windows.
Aside from that, it’s quite nice imo
The irony of this movie poster mockup being AI generated cracks me up.
Swap to a 0 calorie version and just keep enjoying it? Fizzy drinks are a pretty harmless vice in the grand scheme of things. Hollow calories, so if you can replace it with a 0 calorie version, it would at least stop affecting your weight.
I know everyone is against artificial sweeteners. They won’t kill you faster than microplastics, pollution, break pad dust, war, alcohol, smoking,…
Enjoy life! Enjoy a fizzy drink! I thoroughly enjoy my daily coke zero can.
I have the galaxy tab ultra. I use it more than my actual tablet for surfing and lounging and watching videos. For work and productivity I use my laptop. If I really had to pick one, I’d probably pick the tablet. It’s all about what you do with it + formfactor
(have a desktop for actual gaming)
Also, the Lenovo y700 is an awesome device if you want an 8inch tablet.
Lol, OK. Yeah. Didn’t think about caveats. :D
Ah, fair enough. So that’s similar to “infinite universes of infinite possibilities, except light can never go faster than 300.000 km/sec”?
In an infinite list of letters, every single book ever written, every word ever spoken (and to be written/spoken) should be present no?
I guess the only caveat is that in an infinite universe certain physical laws could be universal (which would prevent eg any universe to break the speed of light)? But some version of me having hair past my 30s should certainly exist no?
Or am I getting this completely wrong?
I also prefer electric cars, but goddamn if I haven’t gotten a heart attack multiple times from a sneaky silent ev fly past me minding my own business walking on the road. (not every road has sidewalks in the non-US city where I live)
If it’s a one time payment and it works well enough, chances are big I’ll get it.
If it’s a subscription, I wish you the very best, but it won’t be for me.
Unfortunately the explanation seems to point towards the latter :(
