I made a kbin and a beehaw account originally, then left beehaw when they raised a ton of red flags about how incapable they were at moderating at scale. Then I made a Vlemmy account until the insurance just disappeared overnight. So at this point I’m on kbin exclusively by accident I guess, but I do like the default mobile UI and the Artemis app more than any of the current lemmy UI options (though I am waiting eagerly for Sync).
Curious what parts of kbin are confusing or more difficult to use when compared to Lemmy?
As far as I can tell, they’re mostly the same, especially coming from Reddit
Still bitter about Vlemmy, and I haven’t made a replacement account yet.
Were they filled with spam? Or does your instance just really hate Star Trek lol
The one thing I would add, is that if you do switch you might want to consider reformatting your drives from NTFS to something linux compatible like ext4.
It can be a bit of a pain in your case though since you have so much to redownload afterwards
Same, k-anything has just been beaten into my brain as “oh a KDE app!”
Used to be a manager, and thankfully left right before they brought back the Mexican Pizza…
That thing was / is torture to make, and always breaks or is put in the bag sideways (because it literally does not fit in the largest bag if you try and just place it in straight down).
The Nacho Fries comes in a close second though, but mostly because frying it essentially halved our capacity to fry literally anything else throughout the day.
Mine has become my couch gaming set up for my TV, so pretty much anything compatible with controller support gets played on the couch instead of on my PC. Also use it for playing torrented TV shows & movies on my TV by remote mounting my media drives on my PC.
I’ve also brought it around for travel a few times now, but I also don’t travel all that much either.
Overall I really only would 100% recommend it if you’re willing to tinker with the Linux half to really unlock the full potential of having basically a really decent Linux HTPC at your disposal. That said, it’s not a requirement and I think it functions super well in the Steam gaming mode on its own.
A human can “learn” to play an instrument in a vacuum with no access to anything other than the tool itself.
An AI is literally only able to “learn” when fed pre-made works by someone else.
Acting like there anything close to the same process is absurd.
If you can’t tell the difference between learning as a human being, and selling content that you don’t own the rights to, then I don’t know what to tell you.
But you do know, and you’re just being disingenuous intentionally.
Good. Until a studio can point to a known-dataset that isn’t just ripping art illegally from sources they don’t have the rights to use then it’s just not worth the risk.
It’s not 100% unrealistic that large studios like Blizzard and Riot (who have very clear styles that “work well” with AI generation weirdness) will eventually have huge in-house datasets that they own since it’s all created under the umbrella of their employees and contractors who already sign away all the rights when they make content for the games they’re working on. But until that happens, it’s so obviously a red flag / great area that Valve’s move is just a no-brainer.
TMNT was mentioned, and I also +1 that
I would also add Castle Crashers as a recommendation, though it might be a little too bloody / violent for your kid’s age range.
That whole album is fantastic.
Every laptop I’ve owned since ~2015 has been running Kubuntu.
They’re not though, they’re just forcibly replacing mods who don’t want to open with ones who do want to open…
Totally different 🙃
People are leaving Reddit over their moderation rules? I thought the CEO did something with the API.
I think it’s fair to consider the Reddit admins making unilateral decisions that drastically alter how users can use the platform as “their rules”.
Yeah, absolutely.
Like I said in another reply though, I just mostly feel bad for the tens of thousands of users who were inadvertently driven there by the site being near / at the top of the list of instances on the lemmy homepage, and now have to figure out if they need to make another account somewhere else.
But in reality it’s not like any of the majority of new users could possibly have so much of a “oh no all my posts!” moment if they really felt like they wanted to switch lol.
No I completely agree, it’s entirely a weird and almost backwards move to be on a federated platform and then seemingly have your goals be at odds with the concept of federation with the majority of the platform.
And while I believe that, as an outside observer, it’s also important to realize that from the beehaw admin’s perspective they accidentally went from “dozens” to “tens of thousands” of users over the course of a few days.
At the end of the day it’s their site and they can do with it as they please, but I feel bad for all the users who were inadvertently guided there by the lemmy homepage listing them at the top, only to be at this weird crossroads now.
Good, rot.
