if this meme didn't mention tiktok i would guess it was from 2017. who even talks about elsagate anymore?

also anecdotal but personally i would say the visibility of small channels have gone way up these past few years. the amount of videos with very low view counts i see in my feed has gone from basically non existent to half of my recommendations.

if im not wrong twitter is still using bootstrap for bits and pieces of its website so it should be already included in its operational costs.

Which country pirates movies the most? in c/[email protected]

very inaccurate measure for piracy. for countries with average low uplink speeds most of them use hosting sites rather than torrent. this is basically a map of how good your internet quality of service is times your population.

i love using the Holocaust as a cheap twist ending just for the shock value.

lmao your brain is so fried that you cannot understand that people making a game for the first time 10 years ago might've not understood the importance of proper version control and backup.

Microsoft Says Bye-Bye DEI, Joins Growing List Of Corporations Dismantling Diversity Teams in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago (6 children)

companies experimented with appearing more "socially conscious", waited for a bit, saw it didn't generate any extra revenue for them, then axed it to appear more profitable.

capital has gotten really dumb, and if you think any one of these really gave a shit about diversity, you might be dumber.

The anti-AI sentiment in the free software communities is concerning. in c/[email protected]

personally im fine with machine learning, what I don't like is "AI", a new marketing buzzword that justifies every shitty corporate exec decision and insane company evaluations.

Albion online seems like a good fit for you, although based on your location your ping will massively vary since they only have a few centralised servers.

for context 22 billion is a few billions less than what elon musk overpaid for twitter. i don't think a bigger collider will do anything but I'd like for humanity to have this rather than whatever the fuck the rich are doing now.

What adventure games do you recommend? (lemmy.ml)

pretty much the title. i have played most of sierra, lucasarts and telltale catalogues so if you are suggesting one of their games i've probably already played it. it doesn't have to be a copycat, homage or in the same style as these companies' games either, just that it must satisfy the vague definition of being an "adventure game" and have a good story. thanks in advance, can't wait to see your recommendations!

EDIT: thanks for your recommendations i couldn't reply to everyone. i can't to play (most of) them when i got time.

Is anyone else worried about the apple vision pro? (lemmy.ml)

i wouldn't normally be concerned since any company releasing a VR product with this price tag is obviously going to fail... but it's apple and somehow through exquisite branding and sleek design they have managed to create something that resonated with "tech reviewers" and rich folk who can afford it.

what's really concerning is that it's not marketed as a new VR headset, it's marketed by apple and these "tech reviewers" as the new iphone, something you take with you everywhere and do your daily tasks in, consume content in etc...

and it's dystopian. imagine you are watching youtube on this thing and when an ad shows up, you can't look away, even if you try to they can track your eye movement and just move the window, you can't mute it, you certainly cannot install adblock on it, you are forced to watch the ad until it satisfies apple or you just give up and take out the headset.

this is why i think all these tech giants (google meta apple etc) were/are interested in the "metaverse". it holds both your vision and your hearing hostage, you cannot do anything else when using it but to just use the thing. a 100% efficiency attention machine, completely blocking you from the outside world.

i'm not concerned about this iteration as much as people are not hyped about this iteration. just like how people are hyped about the next apple vision, i'm more worried about the next iterations with somewhat lower price tag and better software availability. i hope it flops and i know it probably won't achieve any sort of mainstream adoption even if it's deemed a success because it probably can't get less bulky and look less dorky, but the possibility is still worrying. what are your thoughts?
