A site’s terms of service may state that you grant certain permissions regarding the content you post, but that’s typically so that they can display it in other people’s feeds. It takes pretty explicit consent to give up or transfer your copyright to another entity. So while you’re granting permission to transmit what you post to others, it would be a really difficult case to make that you have given up your ownership of what you post. For example, if you post a photo you took to Lemmy, you’re granting your instance permission to distribute it across the fediverse, but you still own the photo.

Well, shit.

He was one of my favourite TV “dad” figures in Brooklyn 99.

The reason why I hate people is because of the things they do to hurt each other, because I actually like people.

I really like the hand drawn art style for Shinobi.

I had to check the original to make sure I haven’t been missing something this whole time.

3-button Genesis controller.

I played it for a little while, but I’m pretty reclusive so I mostly just caught the few things that showed up in my apartment. After catching a bunch of random birds I finally caught a Rattata and named it “Pikachu” and then quit.

Same here. It’s like people who constantly try to recommend their favourite books to me. I have never once enjoyed reading something that was pushed on me by someone else. Because “you’ll totally love it” never means “I evaluated your personal tastes and media preferences” and always means “I liked it so you should too.”

A book or series is a huge time investment. I’m not wasting mine on someone else’s preferences.

That’s my secret, Cap. I’m always disappointed.

I totally understand the fear. Their history definitely doesn’t indicate they’re the best studio for the job. That said, I did enjoy Dear Esther and Korsakovia for what they are. Korsakovia is just a really creepy idea that I really dug, and I played Dear Esther shortly after my sister died so it hit close to home for me.

I’ve been pleasantly surprised by studios stepping out of their comfort zones before, and I’m so desperate for Bloodlines 2 that I’m not capable of being anything but blindly optimistic.

Just speaking for myself, I bought a PS5 mainly because it’s where I can play Demon’s Souls but after Microsoft bought Activision I figured I would inevitably end up buying a Series X as well. Seeing stuff like this means I’ll probably never buy an Xbox again, regardless of what exclusives they’ve managed to acquire.

I know I’m not representative of everyone, but I hope there are enough others like me to make their invasive advertising push very unprofitable for Microsoft.

I had pretty much the same experience. I loved using my Xbox One as an entertainment centre, but the most recent dashboard update made me never want to turn it on again.

This is why, for all its faults, I kinda like the Windows 11 UI. It reminds me a little bit of when I tried openSUSE.
