How is this false story still getting pushed to the top?
We literally just had a thread about it earlier this week. It was debunked.
The same story came up years ago, and it was debunked then too.
People will just believe anything these days.
None of these problems are really dealbreakers for a consumer-oriented file system in 2023. Not even ext4 supports CoW. Now that everyone boots off an SSD, things like file fragmentation no longer matter, and most of NTFS’ continued slowness has more to do with Windows itself than the actual file system.
ReFS is Microsoft’s new file system meant for more advanced use cases. It supports many but not all of these advanced features. Starting with Windows 11, you can actually boot off a ReFS drive, though I’m not sure that is a recommended configuration.
They’re just people looking for attention.
I don’t really like Destiny as a game, but the way Bungie has been handling their community is top notch. I love their low tolerance for bullshit. Other developers should be taking notes.
It’s like Dvorak. You can be ~5% faster once you get over the turly enormous learning curve. The problem is, for most people, that 5% does not justify the huge initial investment.
Assuming you can find one that actually does what you want
The entire design philosophy of GNOME drives me up a wall. Who in their right mind decided we don’t need minimize buttons on our windows?
The whole reason for this big migration is Reddit taking away mod tools. If you think Lemmy isn’t going to support things like this then you are in for a bit of a surprise.
I don’t like having cavities.
I don’t want to lose most of my teeth and have to wear dentures in my 60s.
The cleaning I get every 6 months is able to remove crap that regular brushing and flossing doesn’t.
It was because lemmy.world was experiencing explosive growth and did not have a good mechanism in place to limit spam and troll accounts. This combined with Lemmy’s still infant moderating tools made it difficult for Beehaw to contend with the influx of lemmy.world users who were harassing beehaw users.
A mutual decision was made between both beehaw and lemmy.world to temporarily defederate while the moderation tools are worked on. They fully intend to re-federate once these tools are in place, as both instances have a fairly similar attitude towards harassment and hate speech.
There was no disagreement between the admins of beehaw and lemmy.world
99% of my play is docked and I don’t like that half the cost of my console went into making it portable rather than faster.
I hate the dumpster fire that is “definitive edition” as much as the next person, but…
It’s not $60 for San Andreas, that’s the price for all three bad remasters.
It’s not an ENB mod, actual artists made new shittier assets, and developers poorly ported the game to a new engine.
And this horse was already beaten into a fine paste over a year ago.
I fail to see how it’s in Google’s interest to put up with the Muskrat’s shenanigans. Twitter could collapse overnight and it would be no skin off Google’s teeth.
Are you saying we can’t have a little fun watching Elon slowly destroy his new 44 billion dollar toy?
I’m surprised any other entities let him push them around? What is actually in it for anyone to do anything for this stupid waste of carbon and water?
They absolutely are getting better audio&video fidelity, but that doesn’t mean much to, at least me, if the music is less memorable, the bugs are all patched, everything is over-monetized games as a service, all the assets are generic, and it’s all hyper-derivative remakes of remakes. I get that “fun is fun”, but once you’ve played so many games, you look back at games from 2001 and wonder why the only innovations we have are mantling, $20 hats, and Microsoft is buying everything.
I think this is a bit reductive of the current landscape. It really only feels true if you limit your samples to AAA games, which have always been focused on low risk and high profitability. I would argue that the industry as a whole has become much healthier in the 8th and 9th console generations than it was during the 7th console generation.
Here is my argument:
During the 7th console generation, the industry was experiencing explosive growth. Video game budgets ballooned rapidly as the new hardware demanded higher quality assets and developers needed to pump out bigger, more polished games to compete in the market. Small budget games became a rarity, often relegated to handhelds if they got made at all. Big publishers weren’t all that interested, and you needed their help if you wanted to get your game certified, marketed, and distributed at retail.
The growth of digital distribution changed all that. Platforms like Steam, and later the loosened requirements to sell games on PSN and Xbox Live, lowered the barrier to entry considerably. Over the last 10 years, indie games have exploded in quality, quantity, and popularity. And we’re even seeing the return of mid budget “AA” games. There is plenty of innovation and excitement going on in this space.
I would also argue that the rise of F2P for multiplayer games is a net positive, when done right (i.e. no P2W, cosmetic-only purchases), but that can be a more contentious opinion.
Exactly.
Reddit enshittified because their management is incompetent. They couldn’t turn a profit running ads on a site that mostly serves text, and they couldn’t build a mobile app anyone actually wants to use. They wasted millions of dollars of development on nonsensical bullshit that never panned out instead of improving their core platform.
YouTube enshittified because hosting this much video is insanely complex and expensive, and people demand it for free. The idea that PeerTube or Odysee could replace it is farcical.
YouTubers themselves will not leave for anything that doesn’t pay them as much or more than YouTube itself. This is why most of them putting content on additional platforms are doing so on Nebula, Floatplane, or Patreon. Not PeerTube.
Spez has all the control, he’s the CEO. I find it unlikely that the board of directors is micro-managing him to this degree. Otherwise, why even have a CEO?
They handed down an edict to make Reddit profitable and take the company public by the end of the year, and this is how he believes it can be done.
Wait, you guys brush your teeth every day?
Have they? VRR support in Linux is still a total crapshoot in my experience. VRR doesn’t work at all with multiple displays in X.
