I feel like you’re missing the point. Showing a green dot still doesn’t solve the problem or make it ok, especially when this technology works in the background and can capture sound even while the device is in your pocket, like the article says.

I don’t think we should have to be on the lookout for a little dot showing up on the screen constantly. It shouldn’t even ask for microphone access unless it’s absolutely essential for the app’s main purpose. “Features” like this should always be off by default and buried deep in the settings. If people really wanted it (they don’t), they’d go in and turn it on themselves.

And yet, I feel like I struggle to find relevant content more on Mastodon than on Lemmy. Maybe I just still don’t know how to Mastodon.

I’m not a native speaker and I legit googled “what are casino 90° angels”, then I realized it was supposed to be “angles” and now I feel dumb lol

Who the fuck is paying $90 for a Nintendo game?

No one, the most expensive games on Switch 2 so far are $80. The meme is spreading false information just to make people angry and farm upvotes.

Is that a real tweet?

I’ve been switching between Pokémon Legends: Arceus (I’m late to the party) and Super Mario Bros. Wonder.

PL: Arceus was a bit disappointing. The concept is awesome, and when I first started playing, I thought it would be one of those games I wouldn’t be able to put down. But it got boring really fast. The world feels so empty, like I’m playing a beta test for an open-world Pokémon game.

I just started SMB Wonder, and at first, it felt a bit strange because it didn’t seem like a Mario game. But it grew on me quickly, and now I’m really enjoying it. The online co-op with random strangers works surprisingly well, though I wish they had explored it a bit more. I was also worried the game might be too easy, but the challenging stages showed up sooner than I expected. The Wonder Flower effect is really fun, and I’m always excited to see what it will do next.

I don’t think this is a good analogy, because rolling doubles three times is a matter of chance, so you can’t be “discouraged” to do it. While you can commit a crime willingly, rolling doubles is not something you can choose to do or really interfere with, it just happens and you’re screwed. (Or maybe I missed your point entirely, in which case I apologize.)

It still doesn’t tell us what was changed in the system, just what are the terms to use it. If you’re using your license agreement instead of release notes or changelog to communicate what’s new, you’re doing it wrong.

Isn’t that what people in extreme bubbles usually think?

I’m betting it’s both. There’s a lot of kids in this picture.

Jesus seems like a cool dude.

Found the Goron!

Excuse me, but it’s “they/them”.

I used an app on my phone to draw over the image and made a cow twerking at the disco.

What does “Limited” and “Fedipact” mean on that list exactly?
