Yes! It’s good they’re doing this. It would be better if they weren’t letting Nintendo brick homebrewed consoles.

4$ per dose is quite a lot of money for African countries. Not patenting it would allow them to create their own, which he blocked based on bullshit reasoning.

Apple building backdoors for CCP and sharing any and all data with them: am I a joke to you?

Ben & Jerry’s is actually cool though, no? Although they’re a capitalistic enterprise in the full sense, they had the spine to put a stand against Gaza genocide

Yes, but 1000 mirrors will pop up immediately if that happens. Internet is hard to control. They can’t even stop torrenting sites which is mostly used for piracy.

Lumon: is an evil company employing kids, slaves and holding people hostage against their will

Apple: hey guys here’s the cool terminal from our beloved sci-fi horror show

People: this is fucking cool I want this right now take my money lumo… oops Apple

Spotify is not owned by Tencent. It’s publicly traded, and tencent owns part of it.

There are a lot of reasons to hate Spotify (and Daniel Ek) but this is not one of it.

The short version: Tencent Holdings is about to own 10 percent of Universal, which in turns owns around 3.5 percent in Spotify, which in turn owns around nine percent in Tencent Music Entertainment, which in turn is part-owned by Universal’s two main rivals (Warner and Sony), but remains majority owned by Tencent Holdings, which in turn owns 9.1 percent of Spotify. (And, yes, no kidding, that’s the short version.)

Isn’t Wii 720p? Raspberry pi 4 would be better

I also use Wipr 2 and quite happy with it. Was using AdGuard pro before. Blocklists not being customizable is pretty annoying though. So far I haven’t felt the need to switch back.

It hasn’t finished yet, let’s see if they can stick the landing

I follow blogs, gaming news and various other websites via RSS, and check my RSS reader couple times a day for new articles. Whenever they publish a new article, reader fetches it and there’s always something to read

I use NetNewsWire on iOS

Lemmy (also mastodon, in effect fediverse) is about quality and interaction, rather than consumption. So userbase being “tiny” is a feature. Here, your posts aren’t buried under karma farming accounts, your comments actually lead to discussions and get replies.

I’ve switched to RSS feeds for my consumption habbits

Assholes? Yes too

They can also start mixing their regular drinks (Pepsi) with sparkling water and up the ratio as they get used to the taste. Eventually they’ll be just drinking water.

That’s why Legends Arceus is my favorite game. Catching Pokémon is a joy instead of a tedious activity to be avoided. I hoped they’d keep the mechanics, maybe next game. I even liked lets go Pikachu more than others because it had a different mechanism at least.

what am I missing now that I got as a kid?

Free time. Pokemon games are, and always have been, very slow and grindy. Even in the latest entry (Violet) you need to actively avoid encounters since animations take so long

Are they stupid? Yes

FTFY

Apple is busy fighting DMA in EU and Google is busy fighting the monopoly case in US. What are they supposed to do, fight human rights abuses instead of protecting profits of shareholders?!
