I kinda get it as a policy decision. I don’t like it, but I understand the risk and I can empathize.

What really bugs me though is this announcement right here and then it just… didn’t happen. It feels kind of dishonest to have a big announcement welcoming them back and then nothing comparative saying that they apparently changed their minds immediately. Feels like there should at least be an edit/addendum to this announcement being like ‘psych, fingers crossed!’. Trying to defuse with humor, I do know any statement would invite discontent from the userbase, but I feel like the complete lack of one kind of kills our trust in the admins here even more.

If you came to the fediverse for a community on dbzer0, easiest solution is to make an account on dbzer0. It’s a good instance, if you like it, think about contributing to their patreon.

No, we’re all on lemmy.world and we’re here, not fully defederated. You can get to most communities on dbzer0, it’s just that specific /c/piracy community that is blocked on world.

The Steam Controller 2 leaks seem a lot more reliable. There was also the hori steam controller not long ago, but not sure if that’s in the US.

Just a heads up, I see you joined lemmy.world , the dbzer0 piracy community that I think you may have come for is blocked there, so may not be able to access it from where you are.

I know it’s kinda confusing.

It’s real confusing.

They state that they’ve done this right there, but it seems like there might have been a miscommunication somewhere and doesn’t look like anyone ever actually got around to removing the block at a technical level. Both piracy communities are still currently blocked on lemmy.world a year later.

Almost all the links in my front homepage are sponsored now. What’s next, a few ads in the bookmark bar? How about when I enter a URL, I then have to type “McDonald’s” before I can actually navigate there?

Don’t give them new ideas, Sony might jump in and patent that too.

If you’re thinking about asking the AI whether it’s a good time to hydrate, the answer is yes.

So, we’ve got a range.

The cheapest set of generic eggs is the Penny Smart Grade A Large Eggs for $3.99, but my local grocery also has another set of eggs that appears to be equivalent in quality from the store brand for $4.99. There’s also cage free for $7.99 and another cage free that looks to be identical from the same brand for $8.69. Generic organic (cage/etc not listed) in the plastic container is $6.99.

They work sporadically, but you have to fit a few fairly specific archetypes to get a significant amount of matches. There’s more options that you can shoot for beyond hyper-attractive guy but not a lot more.

If you’re a generic man looking to find a generic woman to have a generic relationship with, then the odds are stacked against you for most of them.

I think one of the various interface options does, but you can just use one of the multitude of third party apps available as well.

Just a note, every pound is harder to lose than the last. You’re doing great and you’ve taken the most important first step, but you will likely have to keep readjusting your efforts consistently if you’re expecting the graph to stay linear.

The theory is that you could stretch it to fall under incitement, not sure if something quite like it has ever been prosecuted, but near everyone includes similar disclaimers if they want to do something like this.

I’m legitimately at the point where I hope they don’t pivot and are just forced to sell off their IP. There’s just too many reasons to not like them.

Ask any expert in almost any field of science. If they’re good at their jobs, they’ll mostly tell you the same thing about their field.

The scariest thing in the world is that you can apply that to nearly everything.

We’re just going to have to spend the next 20 years researching each model to figure out whether it was made by nissan guys in nissan plants or honda guys in honda plants. It will probably realistically be functionally separated for a long time. Hopefully, everything will settle closer to honda quality.

I’m conflicted on the projects like that one right now. It’s super clever to monitor the network traffic for specific dash buttons trying to reach out, but it also feels super janky and I don’t feel like I can justify putting the effort to set that up when it just feels so fragile. Especially with the caveat that if the amazon block you have to setup for it fails then the device just becomes a paperweight.

Genius idea, but I’m going to hold out for the unlikely possibility of someone figuring out a firmware level hack.

Amazon was effectively giving them away for free for a large portion of their lifespan. You’d have deals where you’d pay for them and then get a coupon for actually using them equal to the purchase price. I feel like I even remember a few times where the coupon you got worked out to slightly more than you paid for the button. Basically, saying that someone ‘bought’ one was usually only partially true.

They did have a few legitimately good uses. Had to have something that needed restocking sporadically but you also didn’t think about often and could wait 2-3 days to receive when you realized you were out. A lot of prerequisites there, I used the ones for trash bags and detergent often.

It’s mostly just a shame the amount of ewaste produced at this point. I still have a box full somewhere in hopes of finding a use case.

On the other hand, every person who has killed a United Healthcare CEO has played Among US, checkmate.

Saying anything negative about China is a violation of rule 1 on lemmy.ml from the admins perspective. They classify anything critical that gains any attention as Sinophobia and file it under bigotry.
