40 second load times are pretty dreadful in a genre that by design has a lot of them.

Microsoft is a good underdog because they have infinite money. And a really bad market leader, I bet worse than Sony. It would’ve been way better for the industry to not let them acquire the big boys they have.

What about pissing and shitting?

Honestly, I wholeheartedly support this move. For a couple of (obviously subjective) reasons:

• Lemmy/kbin isn’t ready. If Beehaw staff were able to fork their own version of the base code with their moderation etc. design preferences in mind, this would be another thing – though even then it might not be enough to be worth it with the headache of fediverse moderation.

• Closed system/community is more personal, hence more productive and less noisy. At least before it outgrows itself.

What I’d hope but is also more work and potentially creates conflicts, is that the new platform provides good moderation logging etc. Which I think is key feature to ensure trust and self policing.

How is dismissing a correction with a blunt “nope” nice and tacking on etymology when we’re talking about modern use of the word?

Yeah what kind of linguistics dweeb doesn’t understand that language is fluid and shapes with time and location.

Well, civil wars between citizens and cops.

Maybe a bit of context would be in order because I don’t know anyone who would even blink if you started your day at work with soda.

Though I think if you started your average morning with drinking a soda first thing would be a bit weird. But it’s the same kind of weird that having hamburger meal or a full roast as breakfast is. It’s just not customary.

I’m too lazy to do my due diligence but didn’t Tucker have him on his Twitter show just recently?

Emotions motivate everyone.

It’s insulting and counter productive to say this thing is about dumb people following their emotions when education, money and opportunities play such a big part.

Yeah that dude makes enough noise by himself.

At worst this doesn’t convert anyone. Then you can count up from there. And it also vocalizes support, which might come across as pandering but that’s about it.

I’m don’t to see how this article is bad for anyone. At most, mildly annoying because “we knew that already”.

Mint flavored all the way through, baybeh!

Yeah. I looove the diarrhea I get from eating tubes of mint toothpaste.

I wonder if it’s as simple as just slowing down the input reading to a human reaction time level. At least my screen seems to take 15 000 inputs at the same time when wet.

Do the AI scrapers use FediBuzz or just the same method as FediBuzz? If the latter, couldn’t the servers just issue a private API key (or whatever, I’m not that tech savvy) for FediBuzz?

Unfortunately, Mastodon is killing FediBuzz in its next 4.2 update.

Any idea why they’re doing this?

It makes more sense to think about it like that.

Did I say that somewhere?

And calling review bombers reviewers, like they offer legitimate unique criticism is kinda funny too.

Because they took OW1, changed very little, made it a lot more microtransactiony, didn’t release a promised co-op mode that basically was the reasoning to release OW2. I’m sure there’s more but that’s about it.
