Die Mart sounds really metal, I wonder what they sell there

Huh, I thought UAE already did this since that’s how Saudi Arabia abortion laws work.

This is me every time I recommend Bone by Jeff Smith. It’s a kid-friendly book but I’ll be damned if it isn’t a lovely 1000+ page adventure anyone can enjoy

It depends on what you mean by piece of technology I guess, since what we have now is a culmination of thousands of awesome tech over the last few hundred years.

If I were to choose one thing, I’d say the telephone. It’s the predecessor to the internet, and suddenly communication between people was instant rather than messages that’d take forever (or morse for the places that had it).

It probably changed the world forever, being able to talk to someone in a completely different country and share something quickly.

Oh yeeeesss, I had no idea they were working on a sequel to the original short

TIL paracetamol isn’t a worldwide thing. Huh.

Alan Wake 2 isn’t American Nightmare, that’s an expansion. There isn’t a protondb page of alan wake 2 because it’s not on Steam

If weapons are allowed, we would win by a landslide. If no weapons are allowed, even then I would think the animals would just start killing each other before they even get to us.

This. Say what you will about Apple, I don’t like them either, but they have a much much better commitment to privacy than Google or Microsoft.

I still cannot believe they think people love Gollum. Why can’t they just make a normal lord of the rings movie?

Making every community ever in your instance won’t attract any users, the only thing they’re going to see is dozens of empty communities.

Because they were getting really stale and they wanted to hold onto the franchise name anyways. People are nostalgic now, but when AC games were coming out back to back people were getting really bored of it.

When Assassin’s Creed 3 came out, everyone was saying how this is the third time they remade what is basically the same game (AC2, brotherhood, revelations, then 3). People weren’t impressed. Unity and Rogue didn’t sell that well. Syndicate apparently also didn’t sell very well.

So they basically remade the franchise into an RPG starting from Origins. They aren’t that special, but honestly, neither was everything after Revelations.

Listen, I love the IA and everything they stand for, but they’re not winning this. They fucked up and gave away copyrighted content, for free, in unlimited amounts during covid. They then proceed to melt down in court because they know it’s impossible to win. Now they’re seeking empathy from everyone and not talking about why they got sued - which is giving away potentially millions of copies of other people’s work…

It’s honestly kind of amazing that it lasted so long in the first place

Very cool. I think PieFed will be a sleeper hit when it’s stable, right now the spotlight is on Lemmy and Mbin but I’d gladly switch to it if it has better features. I like the idea of topics to make content discovery way easier. Polls seem nice as well.

This is insanely good!

There’s a button in the bottom right to make the page wide. As for text size, I guess it’s kind of redundant since you can just zoom in the page.

For the record this was made 8 years ago and is pretty out of date.

I need more of this

Cool! I was wondering when Nobara would update. I heard there are a few bugs in the new Nvidia driver though.
