Xbox Game Pass’s November is full of day one launches
  • From the thumbnail I thought we were getting “Thirsty Sluts” for a half second.

  • Ackchyually, not every Linux is a GNU Linux
  • And plenty who don’t know you can GNU without Linux.

  • ARK: Survival Ascended Launch Trailer
  • I hate the fact that I know I’m inevitably going to buy this.

  • Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, and Apple News+ Receiving Price Increases
  • AppleTV+ got a price increase a year ago, yesterday.

  • Apple TV+, Apple Arcade, and Apple News+ Receiving Price Increases
  • In app purchases. Apple Arcade games aren't allowed to include them.

  • Family files lawsuit against Panera Bread after college student who drank ‘charged lemonade’ dies
  • There’s still a large number of us wondering wtf the market for Red Bull is. I want a drink with the flavor and consistency of watered down Stretch Armstrong guts with more caffeine than anything that has ever existed. It seems like such a weird product in general.

  • Lemmy redirect service - now with support for post links
  • Mixed feelings on this. Cool tool, great idea. On the other hand, it’s also an effective tracker. Not privacy friendly.

  • Why does "hide read posts" apply to my own submitted posts?
  • Because nobody has written the code to make it “not function like that”.

  • No

  • Pfizer plans to charge nearly $1,400 for Paxlovid
  • Paxlovid is a 3CL protease inhibitor. It modifies the primary enzyme that is common across all cornavirus.

  • [Gamers Nexus] Dell Made an Impressive RTX 4090: Relatively Small, Large Flow-Through, and Good Cooling
  • Can’t be purchased standalone. Part of a prebuilt only.

  • What are your hidden gem MacOS apps
  • I don’t think so. Two paid upgrades in eight years.

  • Seems completely appropriate and acceptable.

  • CDN for an instance
  • It works. End of thoughts.

  • Lemmy.world deleting posts with archive links and posts questioning the decision.
  • Lemmy.world is hosted in Finland. 230 is not applicable.

  • goodbye_ *.lemmy.world is on cloudflare
  • Lots of steps to “figure it out”. Could’ve just pinged the hostname.

    Not a big secret. Pretty sure they even announced it.

  • Ad blocker Cause Invalid Traffic For Content Creator on Youtube
  • $4 would get you an egg sandwich, a coffee and a pack a smokes in ‘83.

  • Americans, how would you feel about making student loans completely illegal?
  • Chicken and egg. The tuitions have been able to reach the insane heights due to the ready availability of these loans.

    It was a lot harder to get loans thirty years ago. Almost on par with the criteria for any other personal loan. A four year CompSci degree that could be had for under $25K, in total, opened the door to a $45K to $60K entry level position for a typical graduate.

    Availability of loans broke wide open, under the guise of providing opportunity, and now the same degree costs 5-10x with yet the typical entry level salary remains more or less the same, give or take a few inflation points.

  • YSK: Lemmy DOES have a karma system

    There's some misinformation floating around regarding Lemmy not having a karma system. While many have discovered otherwise, this is for those who may not have.

    While it's not exposed in the Lemmy default user interface, Lemmy does have a fully functional karma system and it is visible in third party clients such as WefWef and Memmy.

    Do with that what you will.

    YSK: Your Lemmy activities (e.g. downvotes) are far from private

    Edit: obligatory explanation (thanks mods for squaring me away)...

    What you see via the UI isn't "all that exists". Unlike Reddit, where everything is a black box, there are a lot more eyeballs who can see "under the hood". Any instance admin, proper or rogue, gets a ton of information that users won't normally see. The attached example demonstrates that while users will only see upvote/downvote tallies, admins can see who actually performed those actions.

    Edit: To clarify, not just YOUR instance admin gets this info. This is ANY instance admin across the Fediverse.
