Pretty much every sports game does not involve violence and people still rage like there’s no tomorrow. I’m pretty sure people will throw slurs at you over a game of yahtzee or something, as long as it’s online and there’s a ladder/ranks

“Can’t get worse at this point, eh?” Amazon: hold my beer

You’re not wrong but on the other hand if you only have morals if it’s easy then I’d say your morals ain’t worth shit

May be worth the 3 bucks if the freevee stuff is ad free too then. Otherwise they can go f themselves.

EU trying to kill E2E encryption for citizens while explicitly excluding companies and politicians is not exactly better. To protect the kids, of course.

Not a single vote for dark souls 3 or bloodborne? barbaric!

So would you say Firefox has settled down in the last years? I don’t like where chrome is going (not only privacy, the “dumbing down” sucks too) and tempted to switch back again. But it requires a bit of work

There is nothing that doesn’t use digital now, but it is difficult to see what is going on because none of this is visible in the statistics. We just don’t collect the data in ways that would help us understand what is happening.

What I get from that article is that it’s much harder to measure output/productivity of a digital service compared to physical goods, so productivity going down is more of an estimation instead of gathered data (?)

I was a Firefox user until they started releasing major versions every few days which broke addons. Not sure how it is today but it was a hassle for a few weeks at least. I switched to chrome because it was the next best option back then.

Holy shit this is awesome! Although I steadily got used to the lemmy UI this definitely feels like home :)

They’re not saying it directly of course, but they clearly frame the account sharers as “bad guys” now. I mean you’re correct that no one is entitled to watch netflix for free but that “poor netflix just wants to get paid” narrative is some serious BS. I also kinda doubt netflix tells us the 100% truth about subscription growth/recession. The only reason I did not switch my account on/off over the years was because it was shared and it would have required coordination with the other party.

You skipped the part where Netflix actually encouraged account sharing for a long time. Now they frame the account sharers as thieves. Also the other part where quality of content goes down while subscription prices go up while still not providing plans with hq streams for single people. Which all was tolerable for a few bucks a month. Without sharing netflix is simply not worth the money

I doubt spez cares about reddit. He cares about money. If he has to throw the site under a bus to make some more money he will gladly do it

cave painting of john oliver?

Someone may tell this guy that making (bad) business decisions is probably the #1 reason why businesses fail

Don’t even need to be that hardcore, just have some self respect. Spez made it clear what he thinks of mods and users. If you don’t draw a line here they will just make the “peasants” eat more and more shit in the future.

I think it will reduce traffic at some point, when the lurkers are getting tired of John Oliver pics
