Tumblr says it’s going to “fix” its “core experience” to appeal to new users

  • Would be curious in the article if you can turn up a link to it.

    • It's crypto! It's blockchain! It's decentralized! It's PaNQuaKE!

  • Anything involving crypto needs to be nuked from orbit, just to be sure.

    • What do you think about cloud services such as iCloud? If you use one, would you recommend it?

    Jump

  • This is EXACTLY my setup too! Very pleased with both.

    • What's a single player PC game you can't get enough of?

  • Railroads! Like Railroad Tycoon but more casual.

  • Those plus Tropico. The first one. Scratches the same itch as RCT for me.

  • I bought at the same time as you. Waited it out. for me, it was pretty true to the pen and paper game - which I enjoyed. And I loved the story. 10/10 for me.I rarely stick with games. I'm not much of a gamer. The only games I've played through start to finish are Super Mario 64, Neverwinter Nights (PC), CP2077, and Hogwarts Legacy. I tend to play sports or shooters, so it takes a lot for me to stick something out to completion.

    • what movie/show made you think "WTF did I just watch?"

    Jump

  • I though about that the first time I saw Requiem for a Dream, and then suddenly thought to myself. It's not actually mindblowing. It's just a formulaic, cookie cutter story of a bunch of people doing drugs, I kind of think it's really overrated from a critical standpoint now. But I did get an initial shock.

    • How did you mess with school computers?

    Jump

  • If WinNuke rings a bell. You remember the fun :-)

    Open a small program. Type in the IP address. Click Nuke. Target PC immediately shuts down. While it's rebooting you grab it's IP address as your own so it can't rejoin the network. Worked great in a building where every machine had a predictable fixed ip. Some good teenage mayhem.

    • What operating system do you use on your main computer?

    Jump

  • I have Fedora on my spare laptop just for kicks. The thing that irkedme was that I had to install Gnome-Tweaks just to get basic functionality like a minimize button in windows. And Dash to Dock to be able to see the dock without backing out to the workspace view. And I still can't figure out how to just start in workspace 1 instead of making me select a workspace on startup. It's irritating to use before I even get going.

  • macOS for both work and personal (Personal M1 Mini, Work issued MBP).

    • What made you pick the Lemmy server you are on?

    Jump

  • I'm also late to the party. But I've been on SDF for ages so I always try out everything they offer.

    • Would server currencies improve Lemmy?

  • Hey, I like that we're throwing ideas out about how to make the fediverse better. But as someone that develops software in the enterprise and works with product management, putting on my user hat here my first question would be: What problems does this solve for? Upvotes/downvotes and moderation weed out bad actors and highlight good responses. You can paypal/venmo/zelle/even send crypto to donate to server hosts pretty easily.

    Personally, I'm not interested in anything having to do with a ledger or currency. Keep web3 dead and buried where it belongs. Isn't voting with currency for the community just a DAO? And we've seen how sideways those go. Not everything has to be a stock market/casino.

    And more currency doesn't mean better responses or more valuable content. We see this with money in politics, where those with the most currency get to be the loudest voices and push their agenda the most. That doesn't mean they are pushing quality or fact.

    But I am curious about starting with the problem first rather than the solution. What do we see as something needing to be addressed? What would an acceptable outcome look like? Once those are defined, then look to what solution best fits.
