I totally missed the clip you were shocked by at first (I guess the Twitter embed didn't load the first time). Just went back to watch it and I don't understand how someone can be ok with saying that. Yeah I've heard sexist things and weird sexual harassment comments in games like valorant, overwatch, etc but that was absolutely disgusting. His casual tone says so much about him too. He's not even laughing where you could at least say "that's a stupid shitty joke". He has such a real tone to it that it's truly disturbing.

I agree with all of your points. It's unfortunate but I think we've gotten to the point that people need to be properly held accountable. Don't just ban them from the game, ban them from the entire platform and report them to local authorities for that. Hell, when someone is this nasty someone on the community team should send it to their employer. It's clearly a threat even if he has no way to see it through. This isn't just calling someone trash, or telling a woman to "go back to the kitchen". These people need to learn what real consequences are. It's truly disgusting behavior.

Sent this to my wife that's a speech and language pathologist who will without a doubt not laugh but rather answer the question haha.

Edit: called it lmao

Wow that looks fun! Shocked that a game like this is still charging $20 after being out for 10yrs though. Good for them!

My best guess is karma farming so they can sell them off. Probably create hundreds of accounts they can sell off. If some brand buys an account that looks reputable for $20-$100 to use it for astroturfing then that's a pretty good deal for both sides. Shitty deal for everyone else.

My friends seem to prefer tolerating the official Reddit app because "there is more on Reddit". I'd rather have less for the time being and not lose my mind with that POS app not to mention fuck Reddit for what they did to 3rd party devs and users alike with that API change.

I refused to install the Reddit app out of principle other than just to check it out one time out of morbid curiosity. Without the 3rd party app creators that made apps long before Reddit did, back when Reddit wouldn't, Reddit probably wouldn't be anywhere as big as they are today. They brought new users in that likely wouldn't have used Reddit anywhere except on a mobile device and certainly not in a browser when even retail stores had their own apps.

When my 3rd party app (Boost) officially stopped working the other day I officially stopped being a Reddit user in the process. Not doing another hacky workaround to make the app work again. Time to make Lemmy my new social/forum and ditch Reddit except for when I need to do a Google search because Reddit is still a great archive of knowledge.

Those were getting so out of hand.

u/DefinitelyNotABot: "A good mouse for a mix of productivity and gaming is something you should be looking for if you need a mouse that is good for work and play. A good mouse for productivity and gaming will have a good balance of performance and features. Fortunately, finding a good mouse for a mix of productivity and gaming is not difficult due there being plenty of mouse options available to you[.....]"

Didn't know I needed a Hades style Metal Slug until your comment but now I can't live without it.

Ultimately privacy is part of security so, if anything, everything you mentioned is just more reinforcements that this is a major security concern.

As someone that has been obsessed with tech since being a kid in the 90s I think the tech side of this is super cool and very exciting stuff. As a user, though, I only like this if I'm the one implementing and using it. I do not trust a mega corporation (or really any company) to "leave it locally on my computer and totally not use that data for other purposes". Right now it's supposed to be (as far as I last heard) only on your machine but we've seen EULAs and TOS' etc change many times over the years but especially over more recent years as data continues to be king and data like this is a literal bottomless diamond mine.

I know this isn't your point but it's just worries I have in addition to your points. And let's not even start about what this means for law enforcement abuse. No thanks, I'll wait for a FOSS equivalent that at least gives me and the community the opportunity to evaluate how it works.

Rad. Thank you. Working on my switch to Firefox today. Between this noscript stuff and learning about styling Firefox with CSS I'm absolutely sold on the switch and no longer dread the process of ditching Chrome (mostly due to familiarity than anything else).

Thanks for the info!

How did I never know about this? This might make me switch to Firefox sooner than planned. Thanks for sharing!

Would noscript allow you to block things like when a site packs your history with their website making it impossible to back out to the page you came from? How does it work considering so many sites now are built with JavaScript libraries like React?

Ah interesting. Thank you, you're giving me something to read about that I never considered for crates. I guess I just assumed because of the scrutiny Rust was built with and continues to go through that it would also apply to verifying crates. I have definitely heard about it with NPM so it should have been obvious that it might not be any different for crates. Thanks again!
