Plagiarism is a bad thing

Including plagiarising the dictionary

Healthy optimism

In what situation would the second box be anything but a negative, if may ask?

Do some people really use cards instead of compact list?

To increase humanities control over its environment. The form that takes is a secondary concern

Let’s be real here, it’s the second one

For all intents and purposes it was free word

I haven’t really used word in over half a decade since TeX beats it in every conceivable way.

Wordpad was useful in the sparse few cases where I was forced to open a .doc or .docx and couldn’t be arsed to upload the file to Google docs

I guess it will be missed for that

Not everything that isn’t ublock is automatically bad. Especially if you just want an adblocker and not also all the other stuff it comes with

I love the irony that people nuke your comment

Yup, calling bs on the article, since a pc is both cheaper and easier than a phone. Besides, if you know how to navigate a window and type into a textbox (both required for YouTube) you know how to write a digital form

This article is made up drama

You’re right that I inverted it numerically

Though, that’s a communication thing. White people are a minority worldwide but never referred to as such. I used the standard way to refer to the different races even though that is statistically incorrect in the hope of it being more directly obvious what I meant

He means Apartheid

That one went so far that south Africa is the only country to voluntarily unilateraly give up its nuclear arsenal when a minority risked getting to power

If you think 15 bucks for actual additional content is a microtransactions than you need to read up on the definition

I’d rather have subscription model + frequent dlc + ads in game the microtransactions

Not that I would accept that combo either, but unlike microtransactions, it wouldn’t literally ruin lives

Yeah, but it’s a sustainable model that allows for longtime development and product lifetime. It’s also completely voluntary since base + utopia + synthetic dawn are 85% of all worthwhile content on their own

Like, microtransactions are garbage, but the industry has shifted to a point where you’re out if you don’t have a long term payment model. The paradox model at least puts a cap on what the whales can pay, and actually gives them more content in return.

It’s the least bad model out there. At least for companies too big to pull a factorio/terraria

That’s more or less the placebo effect at work, though. Most people cannot see “faster” than 60FPS;

You can literally see the difference between 60 and 144 when moving the cursor or a window on your desktop. What are you on about

Holding spacebar pressed used to play the video at half speed, due to pausing and unpausing extremely quickly

Now it plays the video at double speed, meaning that I have to set playback speed manually when I want to watch in slow motion

I can see this being preferable in the long run, but damn if it isn’t annoying in the present

Lemmy really needs a super-upvote system

That’s a remarkably terrible Wikipedia article

Did he edit his comment? The current version doesn’t accuse Altman of any felony
