  • I still have my original CD-ROM! Techno Raiders was great fun.

  • Most people can’t tell the difference between a 320kbps mp3 and lossless, but hey if folks really want to waste their money on snake oil like gold-plated cables then I say let ‘em.

  • I’m not sure how much use a particle physicist would be on a malfunctioning spaceship?

  • Office Space

  • If you know what curl is, you’re not the target audience.

    The people this is targeting don’t even know what ‘CLI’ stands for, but they absolutely will copy/paste random commands into their computer if they’re told it’ll magically fix something.

  • MacBooks.

    Plenty of reasons to hate Apple as a company but the hardware and build quality of MacBooks really is second to none. I know several Linux/OSS die-hards who swear by their M1 MBPs.

  • People follow users here?

    I subscribe to communities, and I often see the same people posting & commenting, but I don’t go out of my way to follow any of them. That seems odd to me.

  • I can’t decide if it’s hilarious or horrifying that a ‘security’ firm is openly admitting that they have no idea how their own software works, and that that level of ignorance is intentional.

  • Sure, I’ll throw you a bone.

    Blatant self-promotion is generally frowned upon. That’s a rule across the internet, but especially here.

    Like, you haven’t even made an attempt to engage with the community. No other posts, no other comments. It looks like you made an account solely to push your product, and in a place like Lemmy all that’s going to get you is a flurry of angry downvotes.

  • Only a problem if you outsource your reading & thinking abilities to AI

  • AI slop cover art doesn’t bode well for the written content within. Pass.

  • Pretty fascinating! I would’ve expected the dongle to be doing something more complex but, as the author says, it’s possible that these developers underused it.

  • It’s hilarious that you think game development is a ‘cushy corpo job’.

    Ah yes, all those game devs famously enjoying competitive salaries and rock solid job security.

    Game development is hitting your head against a brick wall because you believe in the art form. Anyone who tells you they’re in it for the money is lying to you.

  • Yep. PC players tend to be very outspoken, but they’re easily outnumbered by the console market, and the mobile market dwarfs them both.

  • Product placement has never been illegal in the UK, and we don’t have Walmart anyway, so the functionality would be useless outside the US.

  • True, it doesn’t seem like something that would kill the business. But still, I would think the prospect of migrating an entire streaming service to a completely different platform might warrant losing at least a little sleep.

  • Isn’t all of Dropout.tv hosted on Vimeo?

    Edit: yes it is

    “Do not build your own app. Vimeo's right here. I don’t have to worry about customer service. I don't have to worry about legal compliance... Our budget can go to what actually matters to us and what we’re actually good at, which is content."

    Andrew Bridgman, Chief Digital Officer at Dropout

    that might age poorly

  • Some people have hobbies. Wild idea, I know.
