I've got four different variants. Two of her in the grey top / hoodie but from different angles, one with her wearing the red top that almost looks like a Spider-Man hoodie at first glance, and now this latest variant with her wearing black.
There was also a way to build Infinity yourself using your own developer key from Reddit, not sure if that's still an option though. But that dev was very quick with a work around and Infinity users are barely affected by the API thing.
It's probably about how all of the right wing people and their alt right movements over the last decade have been a complete load of bullshit spread by liars and hypocrites. Because they've been crying and crying about 'freedom' all this time and now that people's freedom is actually actively being violated, suddenly they don't have the same kind of energy. They've been preaching 'free speech' but they're silent when a protester gets arrested and threatened with deportation for speaking. Even the fucking conspiracy theory crowd took one look at Project 2025 and went "doesn't look like anything to me."
So it's probably just an observation that all of this madness over the last decade has been instigated by liars and supported and spread by liars. And that it's always actually just been about hate all along. A lot of us knew that already but now it's at the point where anyone denying it just looks willingly fucking stupid.
Not even American but just seeing this Fetterman guy's name fills me with rage. This right here is a prime example of the worst kind of politician. Absolute fucking lying snake that suckered everyone in with falsities and by pretending to be something he's not. This is a guy who is just begging to be fucking dragged out into the streets and pulled apart by angry rioters.
You mean to tell me that the people who like to force their own norms and traditions and religion onto others whether they like it or not have authoritarian tendencies? No way!
That women's stuff community that you helped promote already has some jackass commenting about it being "pointlessly gendered". Meanwhile 'Dull Gentleman's Club' doesn't get the same treatment for some strange reason, I wonder why. Honestly this is one case where I hope the moderators do a little power tripping so that these kinds of communities can actually take off without the usual suspects dropping by to shit on them.
MAGA style 'free speech' where we're all free to have the opinions of right wing christian bigots forced onto us but speaking out against right wing christian bigots is 'hate speech' or 'wishing harm' or whatever other fucking excuse they can come up with.
Especially for gaming. My old Nokia N81 kicked this rectangular piece of glass's ass when it comes to gaming because I could actually comfortably play games that weren't turn based and didn't need to slap an overlay onto the screen.
Cringe is teenagers and 20 somethings hero worshipping Joe Rogan and supporting right wing christian nationalists. Lamest fucking generation around. Even boomers had a hippie phase before becoming old and bitter. Gen Z just skipped that and went straight to the conformist bootlicker phase.
No sympathy here. If you ever thought in the first place that the right wing christian nationalists were really all about freedom, then you're a dumb piece of shit and the only way that you'll learn about how fire works is to get burnt by it. I'm not even exaggerating. These people didn't trick everyone with some master plan, they were calling for the rights of entire groups of people to be stripped away and wanting to force their one religion onto everyone whether they like it or not all along, openly.
If that is your definition of 'freedom', then you don't even know what basic fucking words mean. And it's no wonder you are so easily fooled by greasy fucking slimeballs that anyone with at least half a brain could see weren't on the level from a mile away.
I feel really bad for the people who have to share a country with these fucking clowns that are going to suffer too. But as far as these red hat mouth breathers go, I hope they suffer like never before. Hopefully they drop dead like flies too so that they don't just vote for the same fucking people next time.
Yeah, maybe we need a different word to describe the games and systems that we think of when we say "retro". Because when I think of 'retro' games, I'm thinking of Super Mario Bros and the OG Doom and shit like that, not Halo or whatever. I'm thinking of the time before consoles were mostly just pre-built PCs in a fancy looking box.
Yeah there's no good reason for a limit. Having no character limit doesn't stop people from making short posts if they want. If they don't want long posts taking up half the page, then they should just hide the rest of the text behind a 'see more' prompt once it goes over 300 characters.
On a platform like Bluesky I can kinda understand if they limited replies to posts to 300 characters, so that people don't get walls of text in their inboxes but the original top post should be unlimited IMO.
Having not been using this place as regularly for the last couple of weeks, it definitely looks like there's more upvotes on posts now in general compared to when I started up here about two months ago. Even just before this latest Reddit fuck up, it looks a lot to me like there's been a steady influx lately. Like suddenly noticing that the grass has got longer.
I used to think a future with cyborgs would be pretty cool but personally, I'm not so hot on the idea anymore. The problem is that you would be beholden to whichever corporation or government manufactures and pays for parts. And who is to say that the support for whichever product that you've surgically implanted will be for life, and that you won't end up with useless landfill electronics sewed up inside of you.
Personally I think that if AI was ever made with altruistic purposes, that could fill the role of things like complex calculations and extra memory or a log. And good Augmented Reality could fill the role of interacting directly with entertainment and blocking out the outside world. And maybe one day there would be effective ways of interacting directly with computers through electrodes or even wirelessly. Although who knows how our privacy would be invaded then. There could be literal thought police in that case.
The problem is that the tech will always come from someone else. Imagine integrating this kind of tech into your life on such a deep level and then the person in charge of over seeing and maintaining this tech turns out to be an authoritarian nazi.
Yeah it's nice to be able to import your list of subscriptions at least. But for comment history, I guess it depends what you're getting out of a place like this. On Reddit, I liked going back sometimes and seeing what I was posting a couple of years ago. Especially if it's personal shit, or even old review posts for movies or whatever. I like having a stable online presence or identity with a history to refer to.
Been a minute since I've seen that. And that's actually one huge advantage of the Fediverse. There can't be a [Removed by Lemmy] because 'Lemmy' is a federation of servers with their own rules and regulations and aren't even all based in the USA. And if any server starts these shenanigans, you can just move to another.
Although I do wish that profiles and comment history could be preserved from one server to another. That's basically the last piece of the puzzle that would give the user a completely a completely free experience.
