We should keep the "Opinion:" prefix on titles. Without it, these statements sound like evidence-based fact.

Did they really put the power button on the bottom? Lmao that's up there with the magic mouse charging port.

Force feeding estrogen to CEOs to break the glass ceiling. Woke.

... the investigation has nothing to do with the GamersNexus video, so your reply is irrelevant to the parent comment. But since you posted, I'll take the dive: you really think it's better they don't investigate? If you were Linus, you're saying you would rather bury your head in the sand about potential employee abuse because your reputation is too important? Sounds like your morals are worse than LTT.

I don't reckon Lemmy users are as great as all that, but I definitely agree on the downturn of Reddit. It's been on a downward trend for years but we've past a milestone recently where I truly no longer want to interact with most of it.

I saw a Reddit post a few weeks ago that was a 1-minute cut down clip, clearly reuploaded from a YouTube video without credit. Several thousand upvotes, fair enough as it was a good video, but I went to the comments to find a source as you always could on Reddit. One person. One person out of hundreds of comments had posted the source and they had about 10 upvotes so I only found it after scrolling multiple pages. In the old days that would have been top comment with a "why didn't you post the source of this stolen content" attitude, now it was almost impossible to find. Made me realise the audience truly has changed. The top posts are all Facebook slop for people that want to pretend they're better than Facebook users.

If Rockstar made a fully-fledged open world Crazy Taxi game with the scale and quality of Red Dead or GTA, that is quite indisputably deserving of the "triple A" label. Putting aside where you draw the line for it to be considered AAA, they clearly mean that their goal is an AAA experience. It's not that deep.

I only got the invitation in November or so, checked the appt. dates near me and they all sucked - far away or during work. I checked again couple of weeks ago and they had way more slots so I managed to get one close by on a weekend, but I could easily see someone not bothering due to the lack of availability.

Every time I read lemmings it sounds as though we all jumped off the Reddit cliff to kill ourselves in the Lemmy mines. It's not wrong, it just isn't the best mental image lol.

Don't know how no one mentioned this yet, but Firefox does have profiles. Unfortunately the only way I know to access them is using "firefox -p" via the command line. But you can set this to be the default way it launches within that menu.

I came to similar questions/conclusions talking to my coworker. It's disappointing because otherwise he's quite friendly and normal, but I'm realising perhaps that is just because I'm not the "wrong" type of person in their eyes. If he believes Trump would save the country, what else does he believe, right? And seriously, why?

Surprised that it prompted him to delete his system, when he was trying to install Steam!

This response at least answers the most important question. They are paying Billet for the prototype. Personally I think they should do more than cover the raw cost, but at least they have done something.
