Essential but not a guarantee of a good time.

They’re fundamentally different approaches to the skateboarding genre. They can coexist just fine.

If it was widely known that outlook was the legitimate suffix, there’s no need to worry about this. If SAG-AFTRA had their own instance then any actor’s account username associated with it would carry the suffix chosen by SAG-AFTRA.

TomHanks@sag-aftra.com for example.

TomHanks@lemmy.ml would be instantly recognizable as illegitimate.

This problem already exists in many different forms and is already managed well by the fact that celebrities’ real usernames are well known and bullshit posts from accounts trying to fake them are easily caught just by looking at the user name. There are plenty of parody accounts on X with very similar username formats. Is that a major problem for X users? Not from what I’ve seen.

The fix for this is for the guilds and unions that represent these celebrities to spin up their own instances. The suffix of the username granting the legitimacy.

Y’know this guy seems intelligent enough to come up with this scheme, but not intelligent enough to keep a low profile. I honestly don’t understand that.

Personally, I’d do the math to pay myself a living wage with this so that my actual work salary is nothing but a cherry on top; manage it so it seems like hype is ebbing and flowing in a natural way. If you ever figure out a way to break the system like this, you should never act in a way that draws attention to yourself.

If you don’t mind trading sound quality for convenience, I suppose. Bose has been a snake oil provider for decades.

I see what you did there.

I’d argue this as well. I see it in a similar way. Linus is obviously not trying to sit on some high horse and condemn piracy, he’s just calling a spade a spade.

New account = new TOS I imagine?

Nobara is a good alternative to the alternative of the alternative.

The Reddit hive mind behaviour is seeping through the cracks.

For me personally, the experience is allowed to take a hit, hell even a major hit, if the browser respects me as a user. FF seems to be better on that front although I’ll confess I use Vanadium on my phone. Its GrapheneOS’ default browser.

Have you not heard of the Steam Deck? Steam’s own hardware is running Linux for gaming… SteamOS is Linux…

KDE really is nice. It can be a little bit buggy when messing with themes and panels and stuff but overall its nice. I’ve got it looking like waybar and I’m really enjoying it.

Is there a single non nefarious use case for deepfake technology? I honestly can’t think of anything.

You’ve got the burden of proof backwards, pal.

So do nothing instead?

Can someone help me understand this meme format? Why is it “no one:”? Shouldn’t it be “everyone:”?

I get the joke in general but the words make no sense to me.

The way I see it is that when I’ve run out of content on Lemmy, that’s my indication to put down my phone and do something else. My buddy framed it in that way during a discussion we had the other day and I think he hit the nail on the head.
