An echo chamber that if you say something they don’t want to hear, you know, like the truth, you catch a ban.

Awesome, do you know what server would be popular? For science of course.

The way I see it is if I’m forced to watch ads when watching something, I won’t watch it. In that case, no ad revenue for you because I’m not watching your shit. Now, If I watch it with no ads, you get the same result, BUT I might tell someone to watch your shit or buy some merch. That person I told to watch it might watch your ads and that person would not have watched you without me telling them to. You’re up 1 revenue.

The corporate greed is out of control. The amount of bullshit ads and tracking is insane. I’m blown away by the people that defend this shit.

Don’t get me wrong i love valve and what they have done for gaming as a concept, as a linux i would not Be able to game as i do if it was not for proton.

If I’m reading you right, you’re saying you couldn’t play those games without steam because of proton? If that’s what you’re getting at, if you take your copies obtained from the high seas, you should be able to play them through lutris. It works for me.

His version works though. I use Lutris for everything that isn’t on steam or is a windows program, and it works great.

I don’t know what flavor you were using or how skilled you are in linux, but I’m not very skilled with it at all and use PopOS and I’ve been able to play pretty much everything in my library besides destiny 2 and flight sim x.

Very neat and interesting. Can you send files? It does look a lot like IRC.

Are you ever not a dickhead?

I’ll be honest, I have no idea. What’s Matrix?

I’m ready to go back to irc. Let’s make irc a thing again.

You have to watch where you are if you call out a bot, you’ll have your comment removed and get banned. They tell you to report the bot and they’ll take care of it. Then when you report the obvious troll/bot they ban you for it. Some shady mods out there.

Probably talking about an Escape. Half the battery is under the wiper cowl, but it’s still not bad to change if you know what you’re doing.

A pain in the ass was Chrysler’s brilliant idea to put the battery in the wheel well. You have to take the tire off, remove the fender liner then pray the hold down bolts don’t break (they will) then deal with trying to get the cables off with hardly any room.

That Corolla will outlast all of the fords you’ve owned put together too.

Aaaaand that’s going to be it for snapchat. FUCK the greed, fuck your ads. FUCK your analytics.

I want to blame shareholders. The constant drive to fuck the people working for you to make an extra 10 cents is disgusting. Record profits though! Here have a pizza party, only 1 slice per person though, more isn’t in the budget.

I could make a lot of money too if I could use copyrighted shit for free.

I’ve tried that, it didn’t work…unfortunately.

900k of them are bots getting ready.

We will not be removing Rooki from his position as moderator, as we believe that this is a disproportionate response for a heat-of-the-moment response.

Everybody makes mistakes, and while we do try and hold the site admin staff to a higher standard, calling for folks resignation from volunteer positions over it would not fair to them. Rooki has given up 100’s of hours of his free time to help both Lemmy.World, FHF and the Fediverse as a whole grown in far reaching ways. You don’t immediately fire your staff when they make a bad judgment call.

But banning users for calling out obvious trolls is ok. This is bullshit really. The mods have been going so hard on here it makes this place less and less appealing.
