the “risk” of false positives comes down to the consequence. if the consequence is being stuck in the slammer, don’t use ai. if the consequence is you can’t upload the image unless you manually appeal, or even maybe have to use an external image host; i think ai is fine

yeah, i liked the soft & friendly kde cursors.

not sure about the colours either, but that might be because they’ve changed from the portal colours to the portal beta colours. i never thought of them as portal themed before, but now i can’t unsee it

bangs are invaluable, and the main reason i stick with ddg. having !w and !pcgw just instantly take me to the right page is great

they did: see xmpp

yeah, that’s basically when i play most aaa games - when the mood takes me, but mostly ~10 years old. i’ve just recently finally played wofenstein new order, followed by the tomb raider legend trilogy (they’re really short), and i’ve now started on the tomb raider survivor trilogy

indie games i tend to play a bit sooner; partly because they’re cheaper and partly because i feel they’re more likely to use (and need) the money to make more games. although the last indie game i played was fez, and the dev of that has quit completely…

as a way to search inside communities: https://www.search-lemmy.com/ is in early development but it works surprisingly well usually

slide had a “similar” thing, so slide for lemmy probably will; but it’s in very early development and that feature doesn’t yet work

edit: never mind, i just saw your comments on that sub so i guess you already knew about it

manyatruenerd is pretty much the only gaming youtuber I follow anymore. he’s just so positive and always finds some good in a game (apart from redfall)

pretty unpopular opinion i believe, but i loathe them. they feel like installing apps from the windows store, but worse. i use them on steam deck and my laptop, but they often fail to launch with no feedback^[1], won’t accept drag&dropped files, store their dotfiles in weird places, take up much more disc space (and therefore take literally almost 10x as long to download), won’t inherit the theme (i think because plasma stores the gtk theme in a non-standard place), etc. they feel like they’ve been designed to flout what os developers have built up over many decades and are just a struggle to use.

may i introduce you to… (other free site hosts are available,^[1] but neocities is very much based around the spirit of geocities/angelfire)

hope this helps!

like grenadier or bombardier, i guess?

sublemmy is cute, trips off the tongue, and can be shortened to sub. community is more awkward to say, and shortens to comm or commie. c/ (cee-slash?) is just awful. until someone suggests something better (lemmons? lemmunities?) i’m going to keep using sublemmy

edit 2023-07-17. i have settled on lemmysphere. it is a pun, and i like it

thank you : )

you should! i started out with a much simpler jekyll generated site

i can see it even though i have *.zip blocked with µblock, however visiting https://lemmy.zip/u/DaforLynx shows a page blocked warning (obviously)

fallacy fallacy

i imagine a fedisearch engine will come out that can search lemmy, kbin, mastodon, etc. efficiently; so instead of googling “how to x site:reddit.com”, we’ll just fedisearch “how to x”

in fact, i’m pretty sure i already found one but it wasn’t very good, and i’ve forgotten it’s name

i do like the RES feature of personal counts though

if someone on res had a [+10] next to their name, i’ll know i personally respect their opinions, even if i don’t remember their name. similarly, if they have a negative number, i’ll know not to engage as they’re probably a troll

have you got an 88x31 button? i’d like to link to this

(no worries if you haven’t, i’ll just use a text link)
