Amen to that. Flying in that game was super fun, especially with the ‘trade lanes’

Pretty sure Halo 1 and 2 were already remastered?

But has a bunch of tracking bullshit and harvest your phone number and device ID and whatnot And of course it asks for location permission so they can sell that too

oh fuck yes.

Or websites that exist as nothing but a ‘click here to download our shitty app!’ placeholder

I think the problem is a community full of bot reposts basically guarantees there will be no original content posted on Lemmy, which is what we really want.

modern layouts with tons of wasted whitespace and lowercase buttons that have no obvious widget borders.

I don’t care if it looks cluttered- I’d rather have one page that I have to stare at for a second and then learn it than 5 pages that I have to scroll through every time.

Sorry, I forget that while Reddit had a largely American userbase especially in political posts, Lemmy does not. I refer to the United States Constitution, which I think is damn near perfect, but has been screwed up by multiple generations of voters who pay little or no attention to their government’s mismanagement and just keep re-electing the same incumbents despite having shit approval ratings for Congress, because they don’t bother to actually do any research of their own or read what the candidates write other than just a few sound bytes on TV.

Our Constitution as it is is pretty good, so wisdom would be to tread lightly. I think the only change I would make is to prohibit primary elections. That would be considered a right, as in, no person or group may deny a candidate with sufficient signatures the right to appear on the ballot. I would also mandate some sort of ranked choice voting or instant runoff election. These two changes would be to fix the problem of having to vote against a bad guy rather than voting for a good guy. It far too often ends with the second worst candidate who goes into the primary, coming out victorious. We should be electing the best, not the second worst.

AmITheAsshole. There’s a few but they’re all bots that repost Reddit content. No original ones that I’ve seen so far

For me it’d be Don’t Even Reply: E-Mails from an Asshole.

Bunch of funny ones. Like someone offered a ride in a Prius for a long car trip between cities, he said he’d have to stop at a river to pour out some motor oil because he doesn’t support the environment and had to make up for the environmental damage the Prius wasn’t doing.

Okay so serious question here.

Why does Plex get to make this decision?

I don’t use Plex. But if they CAN do this, it seems to me there must be some unnecessary cloud dependence in Plex.

A good media server IMHO does not need a cloud connection, it should just work on your local network.

Elon Musk. Without him, electric cars wouldn’t be the almost-mainstream thing they are today. We also would be a decade behind on space launch.

//Edit - for everyone down voting me, you may hate the guy today but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t done some useful shit.
