  • Yeah, I feel like the improvements in gaming hardware have gone 50% to improving dynamic systems and graphics, and 50% to messy project bloat. Not to mention the constant crunch culture means they never have time to clean things up before launch, and after launch is for game breaking bugs and DLC.



  • Y2K: Passed ✅

    2038: “Wanna see me do it again?”

    Ha ha, well I have absolutely no faith that we will collectively solve that unless 32 bit systems stop working on their own before then. If Y2K happened again today, there’d be a handful of companies handed billions of dollars to fix everything, and it’d wind up half done with demands for more money.







  • Yeah, Reddit gets something like 52 million daily active users and 450 million monthly users. Lemmy has 500k total and 150k active.

    Even if all of Lemmy went over and engaged with Reddit, it wouldn’t even be a blip compared to Reddit drawing a portion of their monthly users in. Especially when the discontent is over whether someone is contributing a fractional percent to the vagaries of engagement, and whether that meaningfully benefits Reddit, which is further predicated on this being a big brain move to collect engagement numbers and not Reddit flailing for anything to distract the community.

    Might as well sneak a sign for Lemmy into there and use the unhappiness at Reddit to spread the news.
