You people are nuts lol. I don’t like Epic either, but if you think buying a $60 game is somehow less work than just claiming a free game, you’re delusional. $60 is at least several hours worth of literally working for the vast majority of us, whereas a miniscule amount of hard drive space and a one-time affair of setting up an account is a non-issue. Especially if you use a password manager (as you should), then you don’t even need to remember the password.

There are plenty of reasons to hate Epic, stop making up bad ones.

Thanks. I’ll be checking these out later.

I got to step 20, where my password suddenly caught on fire and Paul died.

…what does that have anything to do with closing accounts? Accounts do not degrade.

In my eyes, if it’s extremely unlikely that we’re real, it’s even more unlikely that another species is not only real, but has significantly better technological advancements than us as well. It’s just the same problem with extra steps. But the thing about the simulation thing, is that it’s completely unfalsifiable and has no impact on our reality even if it’s true. So there isn’t really any need to consider it outside of a philosophical conversation.

The free will one and the fear of an AI uprising is understandable, even if I disagree myself, but the other two… What makes you believe that in the entire universe, we’re the only planet that managed intelligent life? And the simulation thing is just crazy.

You make it sound like humans are the only ones affected by climate change. Sea turtles, elephants, polar bears, pandas, there’s a fuck load of animals we’re directly killing off. Everything is most certainly not fine, even if you don’t give a single shit about innocent human lives.

Huh, I had always assumed oranges got their name from the color, not the other way around…

Seriously depends on the game. Black Ops 2 for example, a game that came out over a decade ago, still costs $100 on steam (assuming you want the DLC). At best you’ll get it for $50 during sales. The fact that, even during a sale, a game with a completely dead playerbase costs as much as a modern title is absolutely nuts.

A lot of games are like this, unfortunately. Not everyone takes advantage of sales because many people are going to end up buying the game regardless.

Nah man, we don’t even need to go down the niche scenario route where they can wiggle their way out of it. Even if we give them every single point in their favor, abortion should still be legal. Even in some wild world where life starts at conception, nobody ever gets raped, and people can’t die from pregnancies, abortion should still be legal.

Nothing is more important than a person’s bodily autonomy.

Especially not with the kids.

As someone who was lurking on Reddit every day, probably not to be honest. I know a lot of people are enjoying the smaller community, but to me it just feels… empty. The bigger instances are fine, but I was never interested in the popular subreddits like r/funny or r/memes. I used reddit for things like specific games, communities that are noticeably dead on Lemmy.

I’m using Lemmy more like an intermediary step between reddit and just quitting altogether.

A loooot of people seem to completely disagree considering how many people pay for nitro even after they removed discriminators (and the ability to change them with nitro).

What confuses me is why they chose to use white text there… surely the orange background is bright enough for black text to be far easier to read?

I’m sure a lot of people are in the same boat as you as well. I know I am. I just meant to point out that a decent number of people do care considering how many people are subbed to !reddit.

I’ll admit I’m at least somewhat interested though, else I would have kept scrolling.

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

I would imagine everyone subscribed to !reddit does.

I’m not saying it’s definitely not happening, but I have yet to see any evidence of Reddit actually restoring deleted comments. As someone who has also purged their Reddit account, I know that the only time comments reappear on my profile, they’re from subreddits that had been privated previously. Much like you’ll see in the video; the comments restored are all from a single subreddit, r/javascript. And what do you know, r/javascript was set to private until very recently. So as much as I dislike Reddit right now, let’s not spread any baseless rumors here. Reddit likely isn’t undeleting comments, they were simply never deleted in the first place.

That said, I wonder if not being able to delete comments in privated communities in the first place is a violation of the CCPA and/or GDPR? I honestly know nothing about them.

This is so fucked up.

Immediately shared with all my friend groups.

Yeah, if you open the soundboard there is an option to change its volume. I’m *fairly *certain it’s a global change, but it could be a per-server thing.
