The fact that the Russian government came out this fast and said they need a version with their own commits is, perhaps, telling.

My daily trickplay task finished in 1 minute after the update. So apparently not.

It's still active -- save the communities that got kneecapped by mods during the revolt (and sadly, most of those are now Discord-based rather than having any appreciable activity here).

The activity there now is a lot... dumber. Like much of the internet, the ratio of real people to braindead bots on Reddit is a lot different than a few years ago.

A lot of stuff ONLY has viable Q&A discussion there....

As much as I love the idea of Lemmy, try finding active communities here for: MAME or any other videogame emulation... Plex... The breed of your family dog/cat... Most any sort of non-Fedi-focused brand/podcast/personality...

Yes, I can create a new community. Then I just sit in it by myself, and occasionally deal with spam.

The majority of Reddit discourse on this is wild. The crowd there is going HARD to try and paint IA in the most negative light possible.

I know we don't like Reddit here, but for example: https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/1g7w0rh/internet_archive_issues_continue_this_time_with/

It's almost as if the "hackers" and/or copyright holders are running that conversation.

You should be backing up any personal data you don't want to lose to an offsite location? All I know is that if I did that, alone, on Comcast's 1.2TB data cap, I'd be cooked.

Not to mention that individual games are commonly over 100GB these days, and have frequent patches. If you work from home, add that in. If you watch any sort of TV, that's most likely streamed, now, too.

Sure, there was a time when I was always under the 1.2TB of my old Xfinity plan. That time has passed. Luckily, the T-Mobile internet I use now doesn't have a cap.

1018GB of usage in July, 2329GB of usage in August, 3554GB of usage in September, and 831GB of usage in October with 15 days remaining

I just don't connect my Hisense to the Internet, and let my Nvidia Shield TV do all the "Smart" stuff. 🤷‍♂️

So, uh.... Why does Elon even care about this?

Is this from that Iranian hack of the Trump organization or something?

(EDIT: Literal first paragraph of the article. Yes.)

"Fuck you... Unless I really like you. But extra fuck you if you run a non-PC gaming platform."

I mean, why give GabeN our email addresses then?

You see, there's the thing. Sony is not requiring any sort of launcher. It's an account.

"But mah privacy!"

Again, no launcher. What exactly are they going to track? That you're playing their game?

You really think GTA6 won't have a single player component? And that it won't require a Rockstar account/launcher?
