They turn into 2d pictures of cats and its stylized like a feature in your helmet. Cat sounds aswell.

Somehow this is so much worse for me.

I love this game but i always use a mod to disable them completely, i cannot stomach anything else.

Spiders in Skyrim never gave me this problem. Grounded is unplayable.

I have nothing against having the option to donate, which has worked for many projects.

The idea you are sketching, it is a possible reality but that is the bad future to me.

There’s a threshold where the number of users makes it impossible for your service to still have any real sense of identity or intend and it ought to be broken up in smaller parts. Some of the larger instances have already passed that threshold in my opinion.

You did mention the solution, "The alternative is possible small scale" The good future is where every family has their own private instance and every business and service has their own public one, interconnected.

Keep things small, manageable, focused and responsible.

I do agree this (fediverse) likely won't last, not with so many predators waiting to grab a piece. Web3 is not here yet, as much as meta threads want to believe we are it.

The meme does not confuse Sync with Foss apps, it points out that Foss is the rule here rather then an exception and Sync stands out among the others like a sore thumb.

So its a very bad example to how things are run here.

Now a good argument against this meme i have seen is that you shouldn't compare a Foss app with a non Foss app, oranges vs apples. But personalty i think all software should be Foss by principle (and many seem to agree here), so I am comparing software that is build using an ethical model vs software that is not.

I cant really but i thought he was back on xhitter.

gasp you would deny the entertainment industry of their rightful profits?

Look at all this effort they did to entice our attention by exploiting our subconscious desire to rebel against the system.

Surely they deserve our loyalty and wealth for this feat.

I mean look at all the amazing things just Ubisoft has provided for us.

Like generous in game offers, recycling of gameplay and of course good old Fashioned systematic workplace harassment

Side note:

This meme is from a year ago:

I am not faulting you for this, your preferente is yours but it strikes me that sync is made for a demographic that would not be as much aware of open source philosophy.

In context of this what your saying makes more sense, I still very much disagree but i see better from what angle your perspective is coming.

If you do want to look around: voyager has blown me Away in how well it was designed. Blazing fast.

I run some of those services that people use. 24/7 I have been doing so for years.

That does costs a lot of time and energy, i ask nothing In return. Well except they they wont be upset with me In person when i end up going dark. ( I’ll make sure to opensource provide it all naturally. )

Right now on lemmy, you are using a free service running on someones computer, there are no ads nor subscriptions to support it. If it would then i would be spinning up my own instance quicker then bender can imagine his own themapark.

The alternative isn't just possible, but the default way people have gotten things done since prehistoric times. Do things because we want to, share resources, providing for others. Lift everyone else up and you too will rise.

What i see when i observe services that complain about not being able to sustain without some form of financing is a lack of motivation and passion. To me they are a red flag that they are disfunctioneel by nature. I lose completely faith in there ability to provide competence or quality.

Of course i do understand that being unwilling to compromise morality under treat of poverty is an exception rather then rule.

But honestly how people do this shit and Not want to kill themselves in shame is actually weird to me.

Alternative eye opener.

I believe the pilots and some of the people who came forward. There is something occurring and it defies our understanding.

I also think Elizondo does have insider knowledge.

What i don’t belief is that he is no longer employed by the intelligence agencies to misinform and delay actual disclosure.

Listen to what he says but take everything with a grain of salt.

How about becoming literally disabled and pushed away from the one area i was deemed proficient in?

• autists with visual sensory overload complications.

Seriously, if the internet is going to be like this, might as well pull the plug.

I have been investing in running my own services and programming my own life essential tools anyway. I will always be computer nerd but one of these years i am just going offline, trow my phone away and glue my mailbox shut.

And yeah this is anger talking but i am so fed up with this “someone must make profits to justify our existence” excuse. That is not how passion works.

There is so much possible between these. Both options suck.

Different families have different needs.

As long as you weren’t born a slave i guess.

Did some europeans countries not also have a retirement income of sorts?

This is what i have been doing.

I have no proof of aliens or even weird phenomena,

But US government is acting weird about it and surely there is a reason for that.

Whether its a psyop, idiocracy or truly beyond our understanding. We deserve to know.

As someone who frequently skips meals i plore you to ask.

“Why am i skipping these meals?”

If you woke up, not by technological but by biological clock and had no rush to get things done or go anywhere…

As a non native speaker i was to focused if i had to use a [ ‘ ] i never considered this.

Complete redo on your end is a minor edit if you have the original file:

How exactly does one “outgrow” “AGI for the benefit of all humanity?

OpenAI Charter https://openai.com/charter

Our primary fiduciary duty is to humanity. We anticipate needing to marshal substantial resources to fulfill our mission, but will always diligently act to minimize conflicts of interest among our employees and stakeholders that could compromise broad benefit.

Depends on the goal doesn’t it?

Authoritarianism archives incredible luxury and comfort for a very small portion of people.

Communism archives collective well being and minimized suffering.

If you ever made sushi at home. Take leftover rice, put it on some plastic foil, put a spoon of filling inside and roll the plastic foil into a condensed ball.

slap a nori piece on it just before eating (so it stays crisp).

Enjoy the next best thing after sushi. And sometimes its better then sushi.

All the ones i ever had had filling of some kind.

They do taste amazing for how simple they are.

Actually with DRM this ca…

DRM, the answer of what gamers hate most is DRM

Hey look someone already posted my comment and opinion but with slightly different words.

To late now. ¯\(ツ)/¯

Thats just fps issues/connection lost with extra steps.

It has to be connection lost.

Mom only has power over a subset of younger gamers.

Being annoyed with someone else's skill is a personal issue, bad players are a given in open multiplayer and forgiven if they are your friend.

Fps tends to be stable per game. Either you have enough to play in way you accept or you don’t.

But connection lost is like being smitten by the gods, you cant predict when it will happen and it always means game over.

Is this loss?

Gotta be the anvil sound.

I just feel like people are tackling my perspective on nationality rather than the point i am trying to make. I also don’t really follow the media that closely because the issues i observe in life are rarely mentioned.

But to be fair i have a godawefull week and probably carry an unhealthy amount bad vibes these days: https://larahogan.me/blog/be-a-thermostat-not-a-thermometer

This feels spot on.

Add star constellations and telling immersive stories while guarding the fire at night to the list.

You must have the wrong idea of exactly how much i loath supremist ideology.

Fascist like Trump are not capable of reason and should not be able to reach so many vulnerable people.

Everytime we share a post about these non humans or someone hands them a mic, a website doesn’t ban them, we give them power.

My post aren't different in sentiment from those calling republicans “weird” i just have a more convoluted way of expressing that weirdness they emit and genuinely do not understand the obsession about people origins or genitals. Its 2024, free travel has existed for a while now. Your skin color says literally nothing anymore except in the sick mind if some broken people who are not worth sharing their opinion by others.

In the end these people did not even care about how rational they sound, they just wanted to cause some hurt.

I am pretty sure Kamala slept on both ears or possibly even laughed at seeing this nonsense,

In the meantime, we, clearly both leftists at hearth. Have been infighting.. for what reason exactly? What caused this anger? The nonsensical tweet of a racist did, like some magic spell.

Thats what i am trying to go against. I no longer want to give them the power of us assuming there words have a value or meaning.

I assumed people would be able to perceive that meaning from my words but alas.

Sorry to anyone i may have confused.

Maybe i live in the future but i don’t see how i would know that shes has indian heritage. Admittedly as an autist i generally appear blind for deducting orgins based on genetics. Its just one of those weird things other people do.

Neither do i associate curry or callcenters with nationality or race. Neither do i perceive them as bad.

Til that curry originated in india, cool historical fact i guess. Would have guessed japan.

We have a callcenter at my job, tons of stuff could be improved towards clear communication and the general customer experience.

Maybe i squint really hard i can see what there going for but its so pitty and oldfashioned my brain just cant accept it as an actual stance.

This post is in reflection a waste of our time, neither of those people seem capable for reason.

Am i illiterate?

Is there meaning to those sentences?

I can see the racism in curry but honestly how is that still a thing. The rest is word salad about support services?

I know the name of the blond lady though, shes a racist and not worth reading what they said.

As much as i don’t really like this there would have been a loophole where you use fake temporary family members to continue cheating.

Back in the day some games also banned your homes external ip address which would have a similar effect.

At that point the computers is promoted (or enslaved depending on pov) and called a (home) server.

One nuance. You don't need to provide access from outside your home network if you don't want to open the ports, i prefer that most of services remain local for security anyway. Once those ports are open, you or anyone else can connect to the services using your_external_ip_address:portnumber

You also dont need to run it 24/7, i started with a minecraft server that ran on planned times only, then a system that was online during afternoon-evening but not at night-morning.

It is also possible if not recommended, to use a vpn to tunnel in your network and than you can access everything just like if you where at home from anywhere.

If it all sounds intimidating, a laptop to try things out will do fine. Don't expect a perfect polished system on first try, i have redesigned my network from scratch multiple times over the years. If you do want to get serious there are plenty of offices that have "old" desktop servers with pretty impressive hardware, the fans may make a lot of noise though.

The Hardware in my current home server is mostly parts that got upgraded in my main pc. I have reached a point where i am willing to sometimes spend extra money on what my partner sometimes dubs "my second pc" but it is also doing a lot for us at this point. Much cheaper then a store-bought NAS.

Sounds like you understand it for the full 360 degrees.

Obviously religious dogma and hate is bad

Obviously not everyone part of a religion interprets and lives by it the same way.

Obviously actual warcrimes and being systematically murdered for potential rather than proven evil is way way worse.

“Free” ~tm~

It’s merely a suggestion of karmatic punishment.

He did not say someone should do this and my favorite version is that his own tesla fails him and crashes his ego.

Education tricked me all right,

Into thinking science was fucking boring.

Quantum tunnels away

The point is it could be super cheap for people but its not purely because of profits.

People pay more for the injector than the drug.

The real (rhetorical) question is how much does the need for profit outweigh peoples actual lives?

I don't get why executives need all this money.

If they are hungry, can’t they just eat shit?

The competition is rough.
