Yeah, exactly. Not everything needs to be experienced. Not experiencing something doesn’t mean being ignorant of its consequences.

It’s absolutely the format. The old rich people just have the incentive to drag everyone into it, to make it something to get “hooked” on. But the format itself is already cancerous.
Cultural osmosis.
Just because I never installed TikTok or Snapchat, doesn’t mean I’ve never seen or heard anything from it. Snapchat used to be big, TikTok is even bigger right now, it’s completely impossible to actually avoid seeing anything from it. And then there’s YouTube with their shorts.
Yes, and it will still be brainrot.
My attention span is just fine. I don’t need to see it ruined by short format nonsense with about as much intellectual value as the nutritional value of a McDonald’s cheeseburger.
I never installed TikTok or Snapchat on my phone, not because I had privacy concerns, but because I hate everything about the format.
This is the reason why I don’t want to go to pools anymore.
No, Americans like fractions. You should give that measure in fractions of a parsec.
And he got rejected from art school. No wonder he was such a miserable twat.
Just wait till you say you’re using Ubuntu. ^^;
Especially if it’s arch Linux
Tell that to the furries. Every furry I know that has a VRChat avatar feels more at home with a VR headset strapped to their face.
You mean all they’ll know is my email? Not really that drastic…
What sets it apart is that on Bluesky you can create your own algorithm. You can also share this algorithm, if you want, so others can subscribe to it. This means you see only what you want to see, and not what some corporate algorithm wants to see to maximise some kind of engagement.
Moreover, Bluesky is also its own federation. There aren’t many who choose to do so, but you can connect to Bluesky using your own domain, which you have complet control over.
I dunno. I’d say it’s more important to see what exactly he’s doing and what Bluesky is.
Right now Bluesky is really good. So until it turns bad I’m sticking to it.
Collecting information, on the context of third parties. Obviously they have information, otherwise the whole system wouldn’t work.
Makes sense. I’ve been getting “quests” and adverts about games I don’t even own. If Discord was selling data for targeted advertising, the adverts would’ve been far more… Targeted.
Still annoying as hell, though, but at least it’s limited to my mobile app. I use Vesktop on my computer.
The ball I imagined was made of polished metal and reflected its environment.
A man.
I did not imagine a face. But he was wearing a dark blue business suit with a red striped tie. A watch was on the wrist of the hand that pushed the ball.
About the size of a large orange.
It was a smaller rectangular table made of a dark, varnished wood.
I’m an artist. I often tend to visualise what I want to draw quite well.
A pull request, in its most basic form, is the request for a change. The joke is that the change I’d be requesting is to make Gimp more relevant, as there isn’t just one feature or quality of life change that Gimp would need.
Dude, “Luanti” sounds like a cool name even without knowing its origins.
This argument is similar to hating on the name “Bionicle” because its origins stem from a combination of “Biological” and “Chronicle”.
Twitter is trash, on the basis that it tries to create “engagement” as much as possible. Any engagement. So it’ll force a bunch of hot topics and rage fuel down your throat.
However, as an artist, I kind of need a platform like Twitter. Thankfully there are alternatives. I stopped using twitter quite a while ago now.
