    Reeeeeeeeally thought you were going to go in a serious direction as I started reading that.

    Kinda like when Mallory Archer was talking about how she doesn’t get what her son sees in Lana.

    “I mean really, what does he see in a black…ops field agent???”

    Really felt like she was going in a whole different direction.






  • That may all be true and all, but other services aren’t one guy.

    It would be like signing up for a fediverse instance, which uses closed source software, and it’s just one guy running the service for a small amount of people.

    I don’t know who runs Lemmy.world, but at no point do I think the admins are targeting me, to read through my inbox. My judgement says that’s not what the admins are doing with their time.

    But this myspace clone had 300ish registered members on a single centralized closed source platform being run and created by one guy with zero oversight. I can’t say that he created the service specifically to spy on people, but it certainly doesn’t pass the sniff test.



  • Weird. Youtube doesn’t do that to me. It is insistant however that I need to watch AI made videos about why linux is better than linux.

    No, not a typo. The titles are usually along the lines of “Is Mint better than linux? Lets find out!”

    Or

    “Ubuntu just can’t compete with Linux!”

    And the one time I accidently clicked one of these videos, it was the most obvious AI slop you’d ever seen.

    Maybe it doesn’t suggest these right wing videos because they see how much Steven Colbert, and Last Week Tonight I watch.

    Then there’s the weird videos. Not AI. Just…weird.

    Like the video of a teenager dipping a pickle into a jar of tostitos queso, and repeatedly saying “pickles n cheese, pickles n cheese, pickles n cheese…” while making squishing noises with the cheese.

    But since I clicked it, and watched 30 seconds of it, youtube now reccomends me videos from time to time of this guy doing random things with pickles.

    I miss when it reccomended the guy with the duck. The duck was cool.


  • Well hot damn! Thank you! I fiddled with this for 30 minutes the other night. I even deleted all data. I even uninstalled, redownloaded, and reinstalled.

    I would have never guessed that you need to beat it in normal mode first to then do challenges mode. I would have stumbled upon it, after casually playing. And then maybe a week later trying to figure out how to unlock challenges, only to discover them already unlocked. Then I’d be REALLY confused.

    But at least now I get what I need to do. I get whats going on, and it works!

    Oh, one slight correction though. You don’t need to beat the stage. Just play it. After reading your reply I decided to try beating 1-1 and 1-2. Then I died on 1-3. I was expecting to see 1-1 and 1-2 unlocked with 1-3 still locked. But 1-3 is unlocked too.

    So, thank you for the info so I can stop being frustrated. I at least know now I need to play every level at least once, so I can play challenges mode! And I assume that’s also why most of the boo levels were locked.
