Developer creates endless Wikipedia feed to fight algorithm addiction

  • We're here to help! We just need someone to implement doomscroll / infiniscroll into Lemmy, lol.

    • The Sims re-release shows what’s wrong with big publishers and single-player games

    Jump

  • Never said they conflict. Said they're not a "basic feature". Sigleplayer has lived without cloud saves since around 1960.

    Heck, most modern consoles have a USB port, I'd consider "offline save" more "basic" than "cloud save". After all we all know by now the corporate internet can't be trusted.

  • Hey! Someone else remembers floppy disks!

    • [FIXED] Blahaj? I'd be curious what led to this decision.

  • Looking at the various recent mishaps, like this one, I'm two steps from offering my services as an instance admin. Or would be, if I wasn't already busy with a half-time job and the other half of the time wasn't trying to have a social life.

    Uuuuuh that's not the way to fight an addiction, right? Who is this person working for, exactly?

    Ooooh boy, the antiintellectual effects of tiktok reach deep.

    • Do you like the Mastodon approach of consistent branding for different instances?

    Jump

  • My kneejerk reaction coming from the '90s is that if I wanted the same branding for everything, I'd just use Apple or Gnome. At the same time, constructing brand image on top of a third-party base that is in development and can change over time can be difficult, or just "not worth the $RESOURCE". So I'm currently in the position that something like "universal Mastodon view with brand accents" would be the most fitting thing for the Fediverse.

    • Welcome ex-Redditors!

    Jump

  • If everyone is constantly being accused of genocide all of the time then no one will know when an actual genocide is happening.

    If you can do something as simple as compare numbers (a skill taught in elementary school), you can know when genocide is happening, regardless of what other people around you try to weasel about what they believe the term to be.

  • No, I mean it's the new / local meme word to shut off conversation. And apparently used pretty much the same way right-wingers use it.

    • Flag flown upside down as sign of distress outside of US State Department building today

    Jump

  • The 2A is there for you to do things, but it's not only simply about rising up. It's about instrumentalization. When every citizen can be armed "just in case", all you need is for that to statistically compound into a Luigi or two getting three lucky marked shots on the tyrant du jour.

  • I see calling people "tankies" is the "woke" of the Fediverse.

    • The /r/piracy link to lemmy /c/piracy hit the reddit frontpage with 7K+ updoots!

    Jump

  • I mean, they're normies... anything that's not just a one-step process buttoned as "App" is going to give them "off putting vibe".

    • We need Lemmy.sdf.org to be SDF Member only

    Jump

  • I'm fine with requiring mail sign-in with the usual "what am I fighting for" essay, yeah, but... “We” need l.s.o. to be SDF Members only? Who is this “we” you speak about? I'm certainly not in it. Limiting the number of users who can be in l.s.o. in that way could very well lead to instance upkeep, which has already shown to be a problem, to be just Not Worth It.

    • Jewish Leaders Call for Boycott After Elon Musk's Nazi Salute, Holocaust Jokes

  • What? But Jewish people love being nazis! Just look at Gaza!

    • Looking for a markdown editor that shows either the markdown text, or the (configurable) rendered version.

    Jump

  • There are a few good ones I can recommend, depending on what experience are you looking for (programmer, writer, simple note-taking).

    Apostrophe would be the first, better for freestyle writing IMO; and then in no particular order I'd recommend Formiko which seems to work wonders for technical / programming-related writing, Remarkable and Ghostwriter for that no items, text only, final desktop kind of experience. Most or all of these should be findable in software stores like Flatpak, too.

  • The entire point of c/piracy is sharing freedom. Why would you not talk to people about Linux? (plus the torrenting tools are just so much more efficient there...)

    • I need a hug

    Jump

  • I can't hug you right now due to limitations in the inherent fabric of timespace and the further limitations imposed by capitalism, but I can send you a virtual hug virtual voucher, valid for one virtual hug.

    Imagine wanting to support something as efficient and energy-friendly as SQLite, then throwing an AI on top of it.
