Fork bomb is actually a pretty fantastic cat name

“only one person per file”

so we’ve reverted back to the rcs/cvs days?

Did you miss the words “dark pattern”? it is a term for when companies misuse/abuse UX principles to trick people into acting against their own best interests. In this case, the bold “click me” looking button in the screenshots means “yes daddy, spank me and then sell my data to your friends”, which is the option that most people who see that box won’t want to click.

Unfortunately, a large swath of the general population are trained in their brains to “click ok to make it go away”. These UX decisions take advantage of those people.

Assumedly, the grayed out box will also not dismiss the banner, but instead lead to a more complicated experience where you then are forced to drill down into complicated options to decide which of the cookies to set, which will be confusing if you didn’t open the link at top in a new tab to cross reference which of the 27 data brokers “Technology Partners” to decide which.

It’s not UX, it’s abusive UI and the very definition of malicious compliance to EU regulations.

that still contradicts pictrs breaking the thumbnail

i always hated that the us version of this show felt like they needed to say this explicitly, that was one of the best things about the british version is that the points were a cute little joke that didn’t need to be spelled out

i didn’t crack til 42

ALL.

my hopes of a spidey/daredevil team up game have been foiled is the real tragedy here

so it was like every demo ever? k

It’s not really editing titles. They publish it with various titles that get split-tested at first, whichever version of the title gets more clicks then becomes the only title used.

life happened. this is what most of us look like on the inside

according to him, he is just pooping in cans and throwing it, because he likes doing it, and thinks that’s probably normal and a lot of people “do things like this”.

wasn’t incrimination, just his legal defense. he throws poop cans at everyone, so he could not have been targeting specific people to throw poop cans into their parking lot. it just makes him happy to throw poop in cans. it’s something he indulges in to relieve stress every once in a while.

This wasn’t about them, your honor, it was about my need to hurl fecal canisters wherever i feel like because that’s what gets me off!

He told the judge this was not a targeted attack because he just likes to indulge in throwing poop in pringles cans everywhere. told the judge he did it in that year at least 10 times prior to throwing this can.

Not just one. The article says he did it at least 10 times previously in that year because throwing pringle poop is a habit he likes to indulge in.

He said this to a judge, to make the point that this was not a directed attack against the people who owned the property, as a legal defense. He just likes to throw pringles cans full of shit into parking lots. this was never about “them”, he just likes to throw poop canisters. What’s the big fucking deal, your honor? i’m just indulging in what makes me happy.

Can’t be. Fry’s nose was broken at some point in childhood, that’s why it is always drawn with an extra bump that the rest of his family doesn’t have.

it wasn’t. in fact, this post wasn’t asking for anybody on lemmy to post about it either, regardless of their opinion.

i’m sure whoever wrote this wants us to sign up for their comments section and discuss this there on their website. shall we continue this discussion there instead? that is, after all, what the post is asking us to do.

Will not buy. I do not like rockstar’s business model of “release new GTA, milk the franchise via online mode and microtransactions for a decade rather than making more content and new games”. GTA1-4 and all of the offshoot/expansion games for each, came out in a shorter timespan than GTA5’s lifespan, WITHOUT an expansion.

Also, GTA5 was wonderful technically, but the story was cookie cutter as hell. Even just looking at the “amazing new 3 protagonists”, it’s a white guy in his 40s who just wants one final score before retiring (every heist movie protagonist ever), a black dude from the streets with gang history (b/c he’s black, and a criminal, he’s obviously a gang member), and some methed out white dude (who even the dev team admits is just a character based on “lol gta players will play like psychopaths because the npc’s aren’t real people, isn’t that funny/weird haha let’s make a character about it” — like no the whole point of gta is that it’s a story about being a criminal, so you do criminal stuff and get rewarded for it with points/money/weapons and without real consequence, like when mario jumps on a goomba). two boring stereotypes that and a

Anyway, buying gta6 sounds like a poor life decision to me. i hate yearly franchises, but decade-ly franchises are so much worse. the starcraft 1->2 transition taught me that way before gta5 even came out.

that was just a phase

2FA is the biggest bane to my productivity in the last 15 years, no part of my work life should require me to pull out my magic distraction device.

I will never require a spider button on my keyboard
