Isaac@lemmy.worldto No Man's Sky@lemmy.world•No Man's Sky is enjoying its 'biggest month in the last few years', coinciding with the launch of Starfield104·2 years agoI don’t understand where they promised space sim. I think people are getting confused with what was promised and what was hoped for.
I’m out of there for good, but I take a look every once in awhile. That place still looks like it’s thriving. It’s unfortunate.

Isaac@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Group of up to 50 people shoplift about $100K worth of luxury items from L.A. mall; used bear spray against guards7113·2 years agoPoverty doesn’t affect everyone the same. To try to discount the fact that poverty increases crime just because you aren’t a criminal is ignoring the complexity of humanity.
To say that this particular crime was caused by poverty also ignores the complexity of humanity.
We can all speculate until we’re blue in the face, but I agree that lessening poverty will lessen crime of most types.
I don’t know a lot about vserver or borg, but where do your volumes live? On the same machine? Different hard drive?
Isaac@lemmy.worldto Mastodon@lemmy.world•If I have already signed up to a specific server, and want to change which server I'm signed up to, how can I do that without deleting my account?3·2 years agoWell that’s true for any server, and one could argue it is the popular servers that will stay running the longest, but you’re right. Any of them can go down at any time.
The good thing is you can create a new account with another server at any time. I encourage you to do it. Some apps (I use memmy) have multi account support, so I have 3 accounts on different servers that I jumó between depending on what I’m interested in looking at.
Isaac@lemmy.worldto Mastodon@lemmy.world•If I have already signed up to a specific server, and want to change which server I'm signed up to, how can I do that without deleting my account?2·2 years agoThe account lives with the server. If you want a new server to be your “home,” you’ll have to make an account with the new server.
What is the reason you want to change servers?
Once a month. It’s a city away.
Isaac@lemmy.worldto Reddit@lemmy.world•Sound Off: How many 10+ year redditors have left the site?1·2 years agoFragmentation is, in my opinion, kind of the point.
I think we lose sight of the fact that the Fediverse is new, and conveniences and comforts get added by developers after users have a go at it.
Lemmy is very usable right now in its current form, even if fragmentation makes it a little inconvenient here and there. The fact is, for popular communities, there will likely be one big community with kind of satellite communities that are run slightly different or allow more memes, etc.
Once developers find ways to improve cross-posting and multi-instance feed integration, I think fragmentation will mostly be a background, unnoticed, thing.
I think it keeps mods more honest, because they know anyone can jump ship much easier to another established community - even if it’s smaller.
I’m not saying there aren’t downsides, but I do believe the upsides outweigh it, and it will only get better over time.
Isaac@lemmy.worldto Reddit@lemmy.world•Sound Off: How many 10+ year redditors have left the site?5·2 years agoI’m one of those c/nfl mods and 12+ redditors that has moved on. I know Reddit probably has some life in it still, but the quality of the communities is going to go down. Decentralization serves users best.
Isaac@lemmy.worldto News@kbin.social•Biden implements sweeping changes to how the military handles sexual assault cases2·2 years agoAs it should be. I’ve been in the army 17 years and it always bewildered me how much power individual unit commanders have over their units.
Isaac@lemmy.worldto DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•Google is already pushing WEI(DRM Webpage) into Chromium39·2 years agoToday is the day I finally move to Firefox and away from brave. No chromium based browser is safe, and I just can’t do it anymore. Fuck google and fuck this entire money hungry system. None of this serves the user.
Makes me sick and sad for my kids’ future reality.

Isaac@lemmy.worldto Reddit Migration@kbin.social•Reddit has started assigning power mods to subs they took over.30·2 years agoSay goodbye to any sense of community that place had in the next year or two.
This place may have its bugs, but it’s definitely superior.

Thanks for the updates.
Isaac@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Aspartame Sweetener Possible Carcinogen Says W.H..OEnglish11·2 years agoThe “radiofrequency electromagnetic fields” associated with using mobile phones are “possibly cancer-causing”. Like aspartame, this means there is either limited evidence they can cause cancer in humans, sufficient evidence in animals, or strong evidence about the characteristics.
Aspartame hasn’t been found to be in the probable category yet. This designation doesn’t mean much.
Working overnight and eating red meat are in a higher category according to the WHO.
The hell with unity. They’ve already shown they can’t be trusted as a platform for the future.
