Actually, it would really help if the “Block” button was right next to the username on the spam post. Having to hover over the name and wait for the modal to appear and then go click on “Block” makes it more of a nuisance. I wonder also if in the future you could choose not to display posts by user accounts less than a month old with only downvotes or who have been blocked by hundreds of people.

Step 1 - Putin doesn’t like a thing.
Step 2 - Putin says that if you do the thing you’ll get nuked.
Step 3 - Putin’s little cyber puppets flood social media with posts “concerned” about the risks of him launching the mighty nukes. Oh noes!
Step 4 - Putin hopes you believe him.
Step 5 - Nobody believes him.

…some times passes…

aaand we’re back to Step 1…

The Homeworld 3 demo is impressive and I’m really enjoying Lightyear Frontier as well. Definitely going to buy both when they come out in March. I’ve been hooked on the Homeworld universe since I started playing it in the 90’s (25 years ago! lol I’m old) so it’s been quite a long wait but it looks like BBI have done a great job. I’ve loved them since Hardspace Shipbreaker so I knew this would be something special.

Have been playing and just finished Geodepths. Really nice indie dev first person mining, smelting, resource gathering on an alien planet type of game. Wish it had lasted longer to be honest.

Thanks, that was actually really interesting and I learnt stuff I didn’t know beforehand. The thing is your comment seemed to trigger quite a few people (me included) because it seemed insensitive. Thankfully you later commented that “For some people (like all the ones in the article) they want it fixed. Others are perfectly happy the way they are, and both are fine and none of anyone else’s business” so you obviously get it. It’s funny how easy it is for people to misunderstand each other in forums like this. This has been a learning experience for me.

Hey there chief, got any sources for your comment? Like any kind of peer reviewed references to the links between oxytocin and loneliness, romantic relationships and orgasm? Would be interesting to read.

You forget a thousand voice chatbots every day, how about you make sure this is one of them…

I like to shower in as dark a possible a bathroom. I find it enhances the creativity effect by a huge amount. Also the slight risk of an accidental, life altering fall from not being able to see keeps it spicy!

I recently re-installed The Crew 2 because I wanted to start a new character and start the story again from scratch. Unfortunately I’d forgotten that YOU CAN’T START AGAIN (Jackie Chan Confused Meme). Because of these ridiculous shenanigans of theirs your progress is inextricably tied to your online account. They have literally built a system that limits replayability. Bravo.

There’s something he said in that interview that felt like a hint about why he’s behaving like he doesn’t give a damn anymore.

“For a while there I was like really getting demotivated and losing sleep over the sort of the threat of AI danger and then I finally sort of became fatalistic about it and said well even if I knew annihilation was certain would I choose to be alive at that time or not and I said I probably would have choose to be alive at that time because it’s the most interesting thing. Even if there was nothing I could do about it. So then, you know, then basically sort of a fatalistic resignation help me sleep at night because I was having trouble sleeping at night because of AI danger.”

A billionaire who believes that we’re all probably doomed within the next decade and has accepted it so he can sleep at night.

Maybe explains a lot about his behaviour? If you know this all ends in the next few years, why not just try crazy shit.

Thanks :)

I’ve sunk 473 hours into it haha. Haven’t played it recently though… and you’ve just reminded me of it so I’m going to go salvage a Mackerel right now! :)

They’re two, they’re four, they’re six, they’re eight
Shunting spaceships, hauling freight
Grey and black and speedy too
They’re the awesome pew pew crew
All with different roles to play

Soon there won’t be an inch of the planet that isn’t being live streamed, whether people are aware of it or not. I really wish Mark had been hugged more as a child.

The kind of people who stick around because you pay them aren’t the people you want to stick around.
Coincidentally I notice that Conagra Brands, Inc. (CAG) is trading down at the moment (28.01-0.28) so if you’d like to buy some shares in one of the biggest producers of popcorn in the world now’s a good time lol

Well, I’m reading and writing about it on kbin and haven’t been back to reddit since, so the protests were 100% effective on me. I’ve had to learn that if I’m in an abusive relationship there’s no point trying to get the abuser to change. I have to make sure I’m not under their control anymore. So on that front the protests were the push I needed to leave and find a better community. 100% success :)

I wish I’d known how nice a place this is ages ago! After 10 years I was so institutionalised to the way reddit was, it was really hard to imagine using anything else and having anything like as nice a user experience. So many times over the last few days I’ve suddenly realised that for hours I’ve been browsing Kbin and not reddit. It’s a nice feeling. Also, now I’ve replaced all my reddit bookmarks with Kbin ones which makes it feel a lot more permanent.
