So the problem was the game, not the device…? The hardware was fine?

How did you learn about it?

Astroturfing is designed not to look like an ad. It’s supposed to look like grassroots support for a product. Legitimising it for the audience. Strategically, it’s effective. “Privacy market leader is bad for x, y and z, what do you think of competitor?”. It’s classic marketing of “here is problem, here is solution”. Just subtle.

Most people here are probably off gmail or close to it. Best way to make inroads is work your way into a niche which Proton, Tuta, Mailbox did to great effect. As I say, I don’t trash the tried and tested options including rival products of Proton. This is email though, usually you want to put data in hands of companies you trust. Its the reason folk running from google, yahoo, outlook. Being careful and skeptical is good.

I asked a question. You sure are belligerent. I thought I left the toxicity when I left reddit. Not everything has to be an argument. Chill.

I’d have expected questions about Tuta, or Mailbox. It’s weird for folk to pan something and raise a tool most haven’t heard of.

You’d think due diligence in a privacy community would be a given.

It’s quite common to see in privacy communties a post panning the preferred option then suggesting something new and asking folk about it. It can be a way to get folk aware and talking of your product. It’s subtle atroturfing, but you do see it.

Organically, you’d usually ask what folk use instead.

What setup? AMD BTW. Just install steam and go…

There are dozens of us. Dozens!

Never heard of it. Happy with Proton. This feels like a subtle advert.

The AI surveillance state requires more data. It wasn’t just US states, and UK. It’s Australia and EU. Either they all indepently come up with the same shit idea, or it’s lobbying. I’ve noticed in the UK when a child dies due to something related to the internet, they mention some tech legislation that would prevent this. It’s like the lobbyists are manipulating folk at their worst to push this shit. It’s dark AF.

Lol. Java used to be ahead. Now Bedrock is. Anyone that knows about MC knows MS is pushing it and secretly cannot wait for Java to be less popular so they can end it.

The joke is because it could very well be true or certainly plausible.

MS did not make MC. They bought it and most who’ve played historically have seen the degradation since.

Are you a MS fanboy?

Please write code for us, so we can focus on Bedrock?

In reality, not everyone quits and your pay didn’t move. Only way to improve your pay is often move and negotiate.

If you stay, you can do 200% of the work and hope there is a role and they appreciate your work. Or just sell your experience to a company that definitely has that role available.

So you assumed I’m an American liberal…

Firstly, I’m not American. I live in Europe. So fail one. Secondly, I’m a Socialist, so fail two. Fuck liberalism, and screw America, but ultimately, that doesn’t mean you have to swallow everything the enemies of American push. Oh, and I’m on Lemmy because I haven’t touched Reddit in a while. You’re the weirdest leftie that is still actively on an enshittified right-wing hell hole and the projection is real crazy. You cannot demand critical analysis from Americans, and fail in it yourself.

Oh, btw, Russia is capitalist, with many, many billionaires. The proletariat are not reaping the benefits of their exploitation.

I live in a world where you can be anti-captalist and not shilling for Russia.

Let’s go back to basics though, if you have a source saying something, you have to ask who said it, and whether they have a motive. Russia Today is the Russian state broadcaster. It’s a really dreadful source to use to understand a war Russia are currently in. I’d suggest you’d find a less biased source, but not too many of them are pushing Russian propaganda.

I’m really curious. How do you run polling stations, where you have to advertise to the public where they are, and to come there, and protect yourself from drone and missile strikes? I really want to understand how you can run elections where you’re being invaded. Can you help me out here? Any examples?

I get really annoyed with Libtards throwing around terms like “tankies” but you’re really kind of walking the ball into your own net (football reference) when you’re shilling this hard for Russia.

RT? As in Russia Today? Complaining that the country they invaded isn’t holding local elections while they’re bombing the shit out of it?

Weirdly, no one has commented on straight up Russian propaganda.

Not many countries hold elections during an active war.

Because you disagree with them, they’re not credible?

A BBC documentary here demonstrates some evidence of what is shown and what occurs is two different things:

There is evidence that isn’t insinuations and it isn’t American.

There was a really good BBC documentary on this 6 years ago which takes a look in one of the facilities from both and official visit and visiting unannounced. Also using satellite footage to demonstrate changes made prior to journalist visits…

High recommend watching it.

You get AC? You’re lucky if you get a meaningful title…
