  • Not judging anyone by the way, but how do you justify or fix the following quirk in your version of capitalism/communism?

    Jump

  • I think the big problem is the concept of state and corresponding geographical boundaries. If humanity could get rid of geographical binding of territories to states, it would stop all wars, and capitalism would work much better for everyone. Instead of states there could be some kind of unions and they could be represented in different geographical locations, and the infrastructure of any geographical location could be managed by cooperation of unions existing there.

  • Nothing is quite as satisfying as watching someone who is farming karma getting called out, then seeing them delete their post afterward.

  • Do they lose their karma after deleting the post?

    “AI is going to change the world!”

    Jump

  • Text is identical, this is not AI, more like a cheap autoposting script. If AI was actually used, it could generate wildly different text every time, it could even use what user said in some post as a context to suggest something to him. That would actually be the only reason to use AI here.

  • What are some astroturfed or biased online spaces (ie. subreddits) that newcomers would not know about?

    Jump

  • 4chan's /v/ is a great example of regular heavy astroturfing

  • Is Elder Scrolls 6 doomed to fail? I can't see how it will work

    Jump

  • Then, you look at what most people are playing right now, and it’s Skyrim.

    As a side note, Morrowind is also quite big still. /r/Morrowind has 178k members and is very active. Project Tamriel Rebuilt regularly getting updates. OpenMW getting more popular.

  • Any good games that break the mold

    Jump

  • Dread Delusion:

    • Great plot, lore, and writing in general
    • A lot of moral dilemmas to solve and hard choices to make
    • Choices don't change much in gameplay, but they change a lot in writing and that is interesting to read
    • Doesn't handhold player much, but is way smaller than Morrowind for example, way less content and side quests and thus feels more linear
    • Lowpoly/lowres and kinda rough even by lofi standards, but certain consistent aesthetic which creates coherent worlds that are fun to explore
    • Combat is way too easy, even bosses are not challenging; recently hard mode was added, but I haven't tried
    • There are some minor bugs and glitches

    Is a detection-proof ad blocker theoretically possible?

    Jump

  • If the site tries really hard, they can control serverside how many seconds of ad you watched to decide if you can access any content whatsoever. Something like this is already present on Twitch iirc. So in the endgame the only universal detection-proof solution I can imagine is AI/GPU based adblocker that will visually detect ads on your screen and overwrite them with something else without actually skipping.

  • Interesting thing to try to make something else more popular is to start on twitch, mirror somewhere else, than declare you move there and mirror TO twitch from there. So that you don't lose twitch audience but also make some of them want to visit the other site because the main stream is there.

  • What old-style forums do you still frequent? Any you'd recommend?

    Jump

  • I personally think this is more of a culture thing than anything related to UI. So yes, moderation is very important to that, features/design/UI/UX to lesser extent. Memes on Reddit are mostly posted to subreddits dedicated to memes, you can actually just not subscribe to those. You can also use "home" feed instead of "popular", "explore", "all" so that you don't get random irrelevant meme subreddits tossed into your feed. Personally, my biggest problem with Reddit is non-transparent moderation. And sometimes even automoderation. Things just get removed automatically for mysterious reasons, then you go ask why. Then question also gets removed silently without any explanations. That's how Reddit moderation is nowadays. Lemmyworld also has some moderation issues and drama going on, but the whole platform is inherently decentralized and you're free to pick any other instance with different admins and moderation choices. I already started using few more to see how it goes and to ultimately stick with what I like best.

  • What old-style forums do you still frequent? Any you'd recommend?

    Jump

  • The only tree structured texting thing from back then that I remember is mailing list conversations. If you remember any names of old forums like that, it would be interesting to research. Maybe there are still screenshots or archived pages of those.

  • What old-style forums do you still frequent? Any you'd recommend?

    Jump

  • I believe old style means linear threads and other oldschool UI choices, not just look/aesthetics. That one has tree comment structure similar to all redditlikes, which (I believe) is relatively a recent invention? Have you seen comment trees like this few decades ago?

  • Chat GPT appears to hallucinate or outright lie about everything

    Jump

  • I've also had similar problem, but the trick is if you ask it for clarifications without it sounding like you imply them wrong, they might actually try to explain the reasoning without trying to change the answer.

  • Doomworld for new maps and mapsets for Doom 2 and Heretic.

  • Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford says his hopes on Epic Store were 'overly optimistic or misplaced'

    Jump

  • I just checked this again, first for game I had there for free but bought later on Steam - City of Brass - and couldn't find achievements anywhere. I then looked into Fortnite and League of Legends - also no achievements. I then found there is "my achievements" link somewhere in my profile, from where I could click "browse games with achievements" and turns out, from few dozens games I own there not a single one has achievements.

  • What are your opionions on fortnite?

    Jump

  • I enjoyed it like 3-5 years ago, but since then it shifted significantly towards kids and that was probably a morally respectable move given how many kids are playing but I don't like it anymore. Graphics is top-notch, don't confuse your subjective dislike of the style with it being unfinished or underdeveloped.

  • Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford says his hopes on Epic Store were 'overly optimistic or misplaced'

    Jump

  • I like how many games they give away for free, but tbh I've never played any of them there. Some of those games I decided to buy later on Steam anyway just to do achievements (epic launcher doesn't have achievements, cards, any meaningful statistics, etc).

  • To be honest, I'm not sure I fully understand how this works. What if the same troll registers on some other instance and posts the same content in lemmy.world communities? How is that different?
