I have this feeling too. But any game that requires an internet connection to work will eventually end up being bricked when its servers are shut down.

I recently played Helldiver’s 1 on the PS vita, and realized the servers were disabled. despite those servers being down you could still essentially play the game, even though its not as fun.

It’s so polite I can’t not delete one of my important files and share the Albanian virus.

Wait, is this an ADHD thing?

No issues!

I bet google doesn’t have to. They can still mine your data and sell it for profit. They’re a data company first after all.

This part is hilarious in a sad way:

At least one of Chevron’s spills is still running 21 years after it began in a Kern County oilfield, although a state spokesperson said it has been reduced by 98% “from its peak.” The amount spilled from the site, dubbed GS-5, is larger than the Exxon Valdez disaster.

It’s reduced because it’s been leaking for 21 years! It’s bound to stop flowing as aggressively as when it first started.

I swear I saw something about these being two different types of insects. Can someone confirm?

“You’re talking to me”: How do we determine from which POV we’re looking from? Seems like the POV is from whomever sends this picture, so wouldn’t that mean that we’re looking through OPs eyes? CMV

To go hang out with people in a cool setting while having alcohol-like drinks without the problems. Like going to a Kava bar or something, or tea bar. Bunch of places out there with themed drinks to hang out. Sometimes you like the taste of cocktails but don’t want to get drunk.

I’m not big of a fan of Chinese surveillance but to most peoples point that have already posted here, if this was about privacy then the government should be passing laws to protect consumer privacy as a whole and not just targeting Chinese companies. Really shows that the government doesn’t give a shit about your privacy just who’s able to get it.

But who was phone?

I wouldn’t be too surprised. After the heart beat bills that came out soon after the supreme court ruling a lot of language for abortion pills felt like it could be applied potentially to birth control. I don’t think those bills passed where I am but it is worrying.

Why haven’t these sanctions already been in effect? Seems like every now and then there are some more sanctions being added but why not just do them all already?

Wow, that research article is loooonng. Could only get halfway before needing a break. Really cool insights!

Give it some time, Lemmy will get there eventually.

Weren’t the French pretty salty about the UK? I recall seeing some articles on punishing the UK for leaving

Taiwan is an independent and Democratic country. China should stop bullying other countries in their own territorial waters.

It’s really hard but I struggle to tell people about my operating system. I use Arch BTW.

Looks like the FBI kept his message from going through because it was a faux pas on the senders side to not know who Joe is.

While I agree, the UK needs to chip a little more in too. This is everyone’s problem, not just the United States.
