Is that the same thing we Americans refer to as an “English Muffin”? I always thought crumpets were cookies or something lol.

Generally the type of people who make graffiti worth looking at aren’t the sort of people who want to draw with a tablet and stylus.

Fuckin’ yikes.

Congress is a representation of corporate interest and little more. Maybe there’s some religion in there too, but it’s definitely not representing the average American citizen.

Then you wait until you get home or to an otherwise appropriate venue. No one wants to hear a tutorial they didn’t ask for about putting up drywall on their commute home or in the grocery store.

Years ago I would’ve argued real money is backed by something like gold, but here we are now, basing most currency globally off the USD which is just fiat money. So yeah, there really isn’t anything making USD more legitimate than Bitcoin as long as humans are associating value to it.

I’m not really sure how to prove this in a Lemmy comment without doxing myself, so suffice it to say that yes, I would gladly lay down my life to defend my beliefs.

Fuck that, get violent. Revolutions are never bloodless.

I mean, the people making them, for one.

This is a bad take in general, if your computer can’t handle running steam it probably can’t handle many games to begin with. It’s the least intrusive option presented so far in terms of DRM, and steam has done more for the Linux gaming market with Proton than any other company afaik. You have to launch steam to avoid games wanting to do things like denuvo or kernel level anti-cheat which is WAY worse, and those of us on Linux need steam running while we game for additional reasons. This complaint about not wanting to look at a storefront is just petty, especially when I’m pretty sure there are settings to open it directly to your library.

Never put your phone in your back pocket. I briefly worked at a Verizon store and like 20-30% of broken phones I saw came from people who sat on it in their back pocket.

I mean, you said that camera thing like it was some kind of mic drop lol. I’m also not sure what you mean by “my logic”, since I don’t personally have much of an opinion on the law it’s self, I was just curious why someone would be so vehemently against it. I’m not the original commenter that started this chain.

If it’s a matter of wasted resources, I guess I see your point, but it’s a bit of a reach. I don’t know if it’s as big of a waste as you’re claiming when we have corporations trying to implant customers with brain chips like neuralink, I mean who knows where that technology could go if it ever gets off the ground. Personally I think the Justice system attempting to have a bit of foresight is a good thing.

Is there a downside to having a law like this on the books?

Also, isn’t banning cameras like a mind-blowingly bad idea? That would mean people couldn’t do things like record police committing crimes, hell you wouldn’t even be able to install a dash cam on your car.

I always thought the reason they did this was because they tie a bunch of random mechanics to frame rate in soulsborne games, and increasing it beyond set limits causes unintended behavior

If you’re already willing to put up with all the other bullshit Apple does, I don’t see why you’d care about them doing this.

This comment has similar vibes to a boomer in the 80s saying that the Internet is useless and full of nothing but nerds arguing on forums, and he doesn’t see that changing.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but wouldn’t the person who effectively “owns” the content you produce on Lemmy and has the right to license it be the person who runs the instance your account is signed up to? In the same way that Reddit “owns” all user generated content on it’s service because it owns/runs the service. I’m not really part of this whole argument, it’s just a detail I’m curious about.

How

Someone linked the fact check article higher up the comment chain.

Yikes, what a cunty thing to say.
