What is a nifty little feature modern gadgets have lost?
  • For the smartphone, what do you mean by software unlocked parts? For the rest I'm in total agreement.

    The high end graphics card market really needs more clean RGB free stuff. My 3090's lights didn't turn on despite it functioning just fine so maybe that counts :) ?

    As for case I know you had plenty of answers already, but I recently got a Corsair 4000D my latest build it's sleek and has no inbuilt RGB lighting.

  • if that stuff pisses you off like it does me, you don't even get into it, because it really feels like they're just reaching into your wallet without providing anything but frustration.

    I agree with you. I claimed the game but I'd really only pick it up if I needed something to spend my time with and could ignore the monetization aspect of it.

    Might not be a game worth playing, even for free, based on the various scummy actions Bungie has done to it over time (what I heard was grind-heavy events, content that people paid for deleted, the vanilla game and plot experience for newcomers making no sense). However, if it was ever on your radar of interest, now would be a decent time to get it.

    It comes with 3 campaigns in the bundle: The Witch Queen, Beyond Light, Shadowkeep.

    Mastodon founder touts Threads' federation, saying it makes his X rival 'a far more attractive option'
  • I think federation with Meta will improve Mastodon, and doesn't affect Lemmy too much. Threads users will be able to post to our groups, but the discussion will be mostly within communities on existing servers.

    The worry is if the bulk of discussion happens in Meta's space. Yes, people will feel like they are missing out if they are on a Masto server defederated with Meta, but there is enough activity from people outside of that to be engaging. On the Lemmy side, (hypothetically) if Facebook Groups were to become like Lemmy communities, I'd be very concerned that most of the discussion would move away from places like here on lemmy.world and other cool servers to Meta's. Then by the time Meta decides to leave or do something stupid then people will not have a place to go to.

  • The public doesn’t understand the risks of a Trump victory. That’s the media’s fault
  • Even Canadian news media was the same. Trump would be on there every other night at least, and people tuned in to see what lie Trump told or stupid thing he did today. Many even had a special banner attached to it, similar to special coverage done for Olympic Games, certain wars, events or elections.
