  • I see so many people excusing Bethesda's poor design choices and lack of content by saying mods will fix them.

    That may be true, but the publisher making hundreds of millions shouldn't be offloading their work onto the free labor of the community.

  • I left reddit for like two weeks before joining lemmy.

    I felt like I wasn't so attached to my phone anymore.

    Then I downloaded Sync for lemmy knowing full well that I'd end up addicted again... The internet is the hardest habit to break.

  • Nobody falls in love because of appearance. There's nothing to interact with, it's superficial. It's the gift wrapping that grabs attention, but nothing else.

    People can and will fall in love with a text-based AI, it's inevitable. An AI doesn't forget events, likes or dislikes, fears or passions; it will know you better than you know yourself. It'll be able to make people feel better about themselves than any human can.

    People have fallen in love over internet chats since they were invented. AI chatbots are just going to be better at that interaction. And then add the exact voice that is attractive to a person and it'll be hard not to fall in love.

  • I pay for YouTube and I think people need to stop complaining so much about ads if they're not willing to support the infrastructure or the creators they likely watch hours and hours of content from.

    I also think Google is charging too much and should decouple music from videos, but that's another subject.

  • Hmm, this gives me a funny idea about a genie that is freed from his lamp, grants the three wishes, then has to figure out what to do now.

    So he decides to become a programmer at some FinTech company.

    Call it "Cubicle Genie."

  • Why wouldn't 8bitdo buy a license? There are one 3 gaming consoles, so being 3rd really makes no difference. And MS/Xbox still has a huge impact on the gaming industry.

    I'm not defending the walled-garden decision, but the Xbox market is not small and this is unlikely to prevent controller manufacturers from supplying controllers to Xbox customers.

  • So that last one is feasible in the near future with UWB chips. It allows devices to know where other devices with the chips in them are.

    And with Snapdragon Seamless announced this week, that future seems very close.

  • It's important because whitewashing history is cultural erasure. Whether or not it's intentional, the education system is failing to properly educate students on the contributions of all types of people.

    It matters to British children of color to see their cultures represented in positive ways and as great contributors to the world they live in.

    Being "colorblind" ignores the fact that history was very much not and ignores that racism of the past still impacts so many people today.

  • Personally, liking Rick and Morty feels like a red flag for a certain type of person these days. The kind that thinks being a dick is a positive and claims you have to be a genius to understand the show.

  • I got my wife through Tinder (I'm a man). I paid for it a few times because I did find it easier to get through the thousands of swipes it takes.

    But that's not without literal years of trying and getting very few dates out of it. For men, it takes a long time to find someone that will actually give you a chance because women can be really discerning with how many men are on the app. And from what I've heard from women, there are lots of creeps on there.

    Keep trying and it'll work eventually.
