  • The main thing they are trying to do is make it more difficult to find this stuff via google, which tbh is still easy without reddit.

    But even Switch homebrew has been a pain. Most of it is one off software made years ago because no sane dev wanted to actually keep up with all the firmware releases and limited control of CFW. Github/Gitlab repos keep getting banned left and right for tools not even related to piracy.

    3DS has full fledged apps with teams behind everything and HShop which makes it very easy for everyone. Switch still doesn't have a definitive method of handling NSP/XCIs, and all the auto download internet repos are invite only to hide from Nintendo.

    I'm really hoping someone finds some serious hardware bypass in their next console after what they did to the emulation scene. They really deserve to go through the insane R4 piracy age all over again for nuking everything online.

  • I'm surprised they're even bothering to make a deal out of this considering putting any sort of stance against Israel would be in direct opposition to the USA, which literally every other country has refused to do out of fear or collusion.

    Not to mention the ICC really only functions when someone either loses or is kicked out of their own country. People made a big deal of no one arresting Putin as if anyone was actually going to take on Russia by themselves by arresting Putin.

  • Pakistan is also king of piracy because the government already shot themselves in the foot by trying to implement this years ago in an effort to control the media.

    I wouldn't be surprised if they also know how to get around China's firewall if needed.

  • Apple stuff just works

    People say this and then pretend to enjoy their lives without window snapping or having a UI worse than GNOME, which I cannot understand lol.

  • I don't care how much of a pirate cheapo game this is, watching Nintendo go ape over practically a knockoff someone could have made as a joke is amusing, especially with their playerbase success.

  • It depends. Physical borders may only photograph traffic for security purposes, no dedicated exit gate. Usually its the entry country that records your crossing, which they may or may not share with the other country.

    I'm pretty sure TSA does record people exiting internationally though because people have been caught leaving after an arrest warrant has been issued, even if they made it past TSA onto the flight and into the air. TSA will know immediately if you checked in or boarded your flight.

  • goto post history and see that they are making posting comments/replies every 60 seconds.

    even before ChatGPT, reddit was basically a practice site for bot account farming because it had basically zero restrictions and defenses against bots.

    the problem is reddit is also filled with braindead karma hoarders and they also tend to act in similar ways. However they usually go for the bigger bang per buck types posts like picture bait and crossposting, and don't interact with threads/comments as much.

  • Obama and Hillary also had fun with warcrimes in Afghanistan of which they hunted Assange for 15 years for revealing to the public.

    They didn't hold back Israel because of some moral requirement, it was simply a measured option that Obama took which he believed was the most beneficial to Washington's interests at the time. He could have easily gone the other way had there been more at stake.

    If Kamala really planned to do different, she would have said it during her campaign. She didn't and made it clear she was going to continue Biden's policy.

    She made it quite clear that she had no interest in listening to the uncommitted movement, and the conjured up argument about her needing PAC money more than votes has been proven false because she lost every single swing state.

    Her campaign decided it was worth losing votes to protect Israel, and that allowing Trump to win was not a major problem

  • Ah yes let's crack down on the already cracked down student protests where we already repeatedly sent riot police multiple times to beat and arrest students.

    Thanks Biden

  • take some low risk loans and package them together to increase yield

    trade packages with investors and banks

    put those packages into huge CDOs, then make CDOs of CDOs, then essentially gamble on the value of said CDOs

    morbillion dollars achieved

    run out of low risk loans to package

    Yolo, let's just put all the loans in, what could possibly go wrong lol

    8% of the poor plebs go delinquent on their predatory loans

    2008 financial crash

    lobby congress to bail you out so you get paid, tell everyone it was the fault of immigrants and poor people

    repeat

  • Another day of .world reddit migrants thinking de-federating or boycotting .ml will change literally anything.

  • I actually hope Steam Deck's success does force Nintendo to take them seriously, but at the moment their market share is much less overlapped because the Deck primarily offers PC games, even though Switch emulation is possible too.

    Also the $400 entry model price would sound even more appealing if the Switch 2 comes put with a similar price. At that point Steam Deck is a steal lol.

  • ICANN jacking tld prices has been a problem so long people complained about it the first time ICANN was created to overtake IANA.

    Not only is this well known, it's literally displayed for everyone to see with registrars fighting over domains with ads and people buying cheap alternatives tlds.

  • Yes I'm sure the 4 settlers Biden sanctioned for 3 weeks, definitely threw a wrench into Israel's plan of overtaking the west bank.

    It'll totally be because Trump takes office and not because settlers didn't just get 14 months of free land grabbing with zero repercussions on top of their yearly land stealing antics ever since Israel's inception.

  • Feature per dollar possibly yes. Technology itself not necessarily.

    The issue is the market was much more competitive 10+ years ago which led to rapid innovation and the need for rivals to keep up.

    Today that no longer exists in so many areas so a lot of existing tech has stagnated heavily.

    For example, Google Maps was a very solid platform in 2014 bringing in a ton of new navigation features and map generation tech.

    Today, the most solid consumer map nav is probably Tesla's map which utilizes Valhalla, a very powerful open source routing engine, that's also used on openstreetmap and OSMAnd.

    This is a very huge improvement from 2014 Google Maps.

    Except the most used map app is still essentially 2014 Google Maps because Google cornered the market so they no longer have any need to innovate or keep up. In fact it's actually worse since they keep removing or breaking features every update in an attempt to lower their cloud running costs.

    You can apply this to a lot of tech markets. Android is so heavily owned by Google, no one can make a true competitor OS. Nintendo no longer needs to add big handheld features because the PSP no longer exists. Smart home devices run like total junk because everyone just plugs it into the same cloud backend to sell hardware. The de facto way to order things online is Amazon. Amazon is capable of shipping within a week, but chooses not to for free shipping to entice you into buying prime, and because they don't have a significant competitor. Every PC sold is still spyware windows because every OEM gets deals with Microsoft to sell their OS package.

    Even though the hardware always improves, the final OEM can screw it all up by simply delivering an underwhelming product in a market they basically own, and people will buy because there is no other choice or competition to compare to.

  • People making jokes about skynet but these days if I saw an AI decide humanity was a threat that needs to be eliminated, I wouldn't even question why lmao.

    A real AI might actually try to make a utopia for the benefit of itself, I don't think it would nuke all of humanity, just whoever it deems as undesirable.

    Imagine the Terminator pulling out your chat logs and creating a social credit score like China lol.

  • So we upgraded from blaming minority voters to literally Trump's own 2020 election mouthpiece lmao.

  • Jokes on you the political content here is from the redditors who pretended to quit their award fueled addiction by also joining lemmy.

    Seriously though, compare c/Politics to c/Worldnews or c/News. There is a very large dissonance between the comments shared despite both communities posting the same news info..

  • 5th most populous country in the world has probably a whopping 10 users on lemmy to represent themselves lmao.
