Discord probably did the math and are willing to take a hit to the user counts (much like reddit did when they closed the apis), as the vast majority will stay and keep “threatening” to leave. There’s at least the hope that the ones who quit now will establish communities elsewhere, on a (hopefully) better server platform.


targeting tech companies who, they believe, are not doing enough to stand up against President Trump’s aggressive immigration crackdown
Oh ffs, they’re not doing enough because they’ve submitted to him! They literally went to his inauguration to kiss the ring!
But better to wake up late then never I suppose


I mean DDR3 is provably fine. I ran a 16GB DDR3 machine with a goddamn 2500k up until several years ago and pre-2020 games usually ran fine, on playable framerates ( i did have win7, not sure how win10 fares ). Question is: who is this article for? Most tech enhusiasts have probably moved on by now, and even those are a small subset of PC users. “Normies”? Those moved on to phones and tables - it’s why MS Windows has lost 400million machines in 3 years. So who are all these people so left behind that DDR3 is an upgrade but are still currently itching to buy ram? I don’t get it.


For an article quoting a study, this one is embarrasingly short on actual references or links to the reddit subs and posts it mentions. There’s literally only a link to the 2018 study and the rest coild well be speculation.
Now I don’t know about corporate manipulation, but what I can confirm I’ve seen is a lot of small businesses using reddit to shift opinions. For example: local rental car providers on the madeira sub. Or food retailers on my local city’s sub.
And, more worryingly, there’s an absurd amount of political propaganda. For example the waves of accounts on my native language sub supporting absolutely everything a political party does. Or the blatant manipulation being done on conservative. Or the sudden vanishing of near all kamala-supporting accounts in the morning following american election night. It’s absolutely astounding.


I would much rather hear Dr. McCoy’s medical opinion if you don’t mind.


Sadly it may actually be your ram. I had a 1660 until a couple months ago and the card kept up fine, at least for older games. With 16gb of memory though my system kept bottlenecking. Upgrading to 32 was like a breath of fresh air


I imagined the law would be enforced by a deal with google and some global android state approved keylogger/backdoor completely bypassing all apps including Signal. But yeah, I’m having trouble wrapping my brain around this.


I don’t understand how this “threat” is supposed to work. If the law passes won’t any and all chat encryption be affected? In that case it doesn’t matter how you get the app, or if you manage to get it in europe. Its encryption will be broken/unavailable.


Time to fire up Anno 2205


Does anybody have the original study? I tried to find it but the link is dead ( looks like NANDA pulled it )


Even if they wanted to bank on the adblocker thing I imagine they can’t because they have to stay in Google’s good graces. Like 90% of their revenue was google money, and has been for years now.
At this point I’d honestly even pay for a privacy focused mozilla browser that is clean of all this crap, just to keep them afloat, but fat chance of that happening.


Yeah, the german lemmy went nuts with it last year. It was beautiful. Just search for Stör


Can’t wait for that LLM to become a reddit-hating bloodthirsty linux obsessed furry femboy communist tankie with a weird fondness for beans, star trek and sturgeon


Like they got somethin to say


Apologies if I misunderstood the american election system, but the fact that for the past 100+ years you’ve had a bipartisan system in which both parties pander to the wealthy tell me it hasn’t really worked. Or rather only worked for the ruling elite.


I have a few and they’re good keyboards, especially at that price point. Keychron went from producing niche lower-quality stuff to broad range and improved quality and (from what i hear) back to unreliable products for the past year or so due to cost cutting. So look for a bit older models, I suppose.


During Tuesday’s City Council Land Use hearing, Vernikov signaled her support for the revised rezoning proposal at 2501 Coney Island Ave. — one that will allow only four stories comprising 27 units and 35 parking spaces, down from the original proposal of 11 stories with 60 units and 24 parking spaces.
Car-brains aside, this smells like corruption. 7 floors with an avg of 5 apartments per floor amount to only 2 parking spots per floor? Wtf are they parking in those spots? Something doesn’t add up. Over here we had the reverse problem: greedy developers signed for plans with x apts and y parking spots, only to convert the lower floor garages into extra minuscule apts after construction started.


I wonder what it was that made Pornhub cooperate this time around. Iirc in texas and france they just “left” instead of implementing the age verification.
I have an app ( feedMe I think) that also pulls the text from the web version along with the 1-sentence feed and ocasionally a header image. Very useful on an eink device, but not sure if it works with pcgamer, because it can’t pass some ad-walls/pay-walls.
However I feel RSS had a small part to play in the state of web today. If everyone were to use RSS how would writers get paid? Donations are too unreliable, subscriptions are frowned on, sponsorships are incompatible with the job and taxes really only work for state media like the BBC. People gotta eat, no?
