I dunno why they wouldn’t display both. Also cynical me thinks this is a more useful change for advertisers than users.

That said this would probably be useful for post ranking on the back end, if they’re not already using it. There’s always been a noticeable thing on reddit where posts on large subs with little activity don’t seem to bubble up much on /r/popular. Which makes those subs seem even deader because they don’t get new blood.

Yeah realistically society would be fucked if people didn’t age. You think we have generational wealth now? Ho boy.

I think life situation is probably more important than strictly age. If you’re an independent 30 year old working a full time job you probably don’t want to date a college student that lives with their parents.

Probably rather a lot of people in his inner circle.

Pops?

I “read” on “the internet” to “make myself miserable”

A lot of eBay buyers purchase a thing and either get buyer’s regret and want to cancel it entirely, or somehow get you to knock more off the price. This sounds like them trying to weasel out of a bid they regretted.

Police: “You’re mentally ill.”

Person: “Er no I’m not?”

Police: “Looks like anosognosia, get on the ground, now.”

In his will and testament (a 21-page pour-over will) signed just two days before his death,[16] all of Epstein’s holdings were transferred into the “1953 Trust”,[17] named after the year of his birth.

In March 2022, Little Saint James and the neighboring Great Saint James were listed at $125 million. A lawyer for Epstein’s estate stated that the money obtained from the sale would be used to settle a number of lawsuits. Bespoke Real Estate, the agency jointly overseeing the sale, stated that further information on the listing was only available to prospective buyers.[18][19]

In May 2023, billionaire Stephen Deckoff, under his firm SD Investments, announced the acquisition of the Great St. James and Little St. James islands for $60 million.[20]

Edit: Incidentally this guy doesn’t have a Wikipedia page which seems…unusual. He’s a private equity guy.

70 to 78 acres

for anyone else who doesn’t have the slightest idea how big a hectare is.

“Oh haha sorry I was talking to my cat”

I really wonder sometimes if people are actually so bad with using their words or if they just play it up for Internet clicks.

It was potentially defamation when it was just women…talking to one another, too. This seems like a pretty solid case of men looking at something women do to protect each other, and saying “…but what about the men who could be negatively affected in some cases?” I also think the tone in which this is being discussed is pretty revealing about Lemmy’s demographics.

I mean, yes, but does that take priority over women who are worried about their safety? There’s been women doing this over local Facebook groups for a long time. Defamation of this sort is not a new issue.

Long time google assistant user, but them putting Gemini in it is what I’m afraid of, not the solution.

This is yet another “google released a product, didn’t know what to do with it, and made zero updates over the last decade, so now they’re killing it.” I don’t think they’ve ever fixed the bugs that existed the first day I bought mine. The speaker is handy for casting to, but also cast is a shitty non-open protocol.

Kinda just agree with the “everything in this space sucks” unfortunately.

I don’t think that will fly even with this joke of a supreme court

That whole survival crafting genre seems very hit or miss to me, and I’ve noticed that people liking one game in the genre is a very poor predictor of whether they’ll like another one. Subnautica, Don’t Starve, Minecraft, and Ark are all theoretically the same genre but very different games.

However I’ve also seen a lot of people say that Subnautica was the one that clicked for them. I think the story and progression was big for a lot of people.

I thought the people fired were executives, not creatives.

Edit: I also don’t see how a boycott helps the actual people working on the game.

I did not find it that difficult, but there was a lot of up front homework to make sure you had a compatible hardware configuration due to needing hardware which was supported by the limited number of Mac configurations. I recall running into a problem where I wasn’t getting a picture on my monitor and I could not figure out why since my video card was supported and the drivers were ok. The problem as it turned out? I had my monitor connected via DVI and macs had never supported DVI so there were no drivers. Once the install was done, it pretty much Just Worked. Linux installs are pretty easy these days but debugging problems can be very difficult. The hard part of the hackintosh was keeping up with upgrades, since they needed to be done manually (due to potentially breaking things).

I do think that bluesky has a ton of momentum right now and is a viable alternative. But the thing about microblogging sites is that if the specific people you want to follow aren’t on them, there’s not really a substitute. I know I’ve heard people say that, for example, a lot of japanese game developers are still primarily on twitter (I’ve never been a twitter/bsky enjoyer so I can’t speak to it personally).
