Americans Hate ISPs Almost As Much As They Hate Gas Stations, Survey Finds
  • I hate ISP way more than any gas station. In fact I don’t hate gas stations at all. Weird.

  • Reddit user alleges California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) non-compliance/violation; and finds it difficult to delete posts and content on Reddit
  • One other thing to note is that many of these companies don’t even try to determine if you live in California or not. I have worked for two large tech companies on data governance issues and we didn’t even bother to check. If we got a request we would comply with CCPA. It was not worth the potential fines to try and only comply with CA residents. Reddits whole business model is based on that data though so they may deem it worth the effort.

  • What are some of your favorite videogames from your childhood? What made them so special?
  • Ultima 7 is very special for me. It was such a magical immersive experience when I first played it.

  • What’s a place from your childhood that doesn’t exist anymore?
  • Hastings’s stores. They sold books, CDs, DVDs, tabletop game supplies, video games etc. It was always exciting to go and look even if my parents were not going to buy me anything.

  • POLL - You now have a monthly, lifetime subscription to the last thing you bought. Are you satisfied with your purchase?
  • I just bought some treats for my dog. I hope I need the subscription for the rest of my life.

  • What is your opinion about Lemmy not having karma but Kbin having reputation points?
  • That is a great point. I definitely don’t enjoy the “hive mind.”

  • I woke up in the middle of the night with this thought in my head: “Leaving Reddit should be called Lemigrating.”
  • Lemmy is only one place to interact with the Fediverse so that does not really make sense.

  • What is your opinion about Lemmy not having karma but Kbin having reputation points?
  • Just like on Reddit, I don’t care. As long as it’s not tied to my ability to interact with the community then let them have their silly internet points.

  • This article calls 'Arrival' as 'One of the Best Sci-Fi Films of the Century' but was it? I tried it and I was like ... 'meh'
  • While rankings can be subjective I truly believe this is wrong. It was an okay movie, period. There are hundreds of Sci-Fi moves that I believe tank above it so calling it one of the greatest is a huge stretch for me.

  • r/The_Donald now on Lemmy (edit: not anymore)
  • Thanks for doing me the favor. Since I will get blocked shortly let me just say before I go, Donald Trump is the biggest piece of shit ever elected. He is a national embarrassment and you all look like fucking sheep following him as he steals your money and makes fun of you! Peace out dumb asses!

  • YSK: If you reply to a comment, you should probably give it a vote
  • How about people upvote if they feel like it? Not sure why this is a YSK when it’s just one persons opinion.

  • I'd like to encourage people on the fediverse to comment/upvote/post more than when reddit
  • I’ve said it another thread but moderators need to be patient with all of the new people. I made a post trying to get some questions answered and was shit on by a mod for not knowing the rules. I couldn’t even find the sidebar at that point. If that is the attitude new users are met with when making mistakes then new contributions will be limited.

  • You get to play one videogame for the first time again. What you picking?
  • Ultima VII
    It was the first RPG where I felt you could really interact with the world. The story was great too.

  • New 2D Mario game announced, Not calling it Super Mario LSD was a swing and a miss
  • You are right that there is no functional difference but 2.5D is an accepted term to define games made to look like 3D or uses 3D models while restricting movement to the 2D plane. It’s not just fine if you really want, it’s a real established descriptor.

  • New 2D Mario game announced, Not calling it Super Mario LSD was a swing and a miss
  • Yes. 2D games made with 3D models. I don’t here them referred to like that much anymore though.

  • metric rule
  • It’s a thickness measurement, not length.

  • metric rule
  • The length is variable depending on who you ask.

  • House to vote on Biden impeachment
  • What for? It’s hard to imagine him doing anything impeachable considering all the shit the last guy got away with.

  • I Asked AI to Generate a Video of a Wizard. The Technology is Improving Dramatically!
  • Brought to you by thousands of hours of Larping videos. Actually pretty creepy.
