  • Any idea why was the Dracula theme removed from Mint?

    Jump

  • Gave a look all over the site and i see no sign of it being owned by anybody other than the original creator and a maintainer, no signs of a corporation involved, and the Wikipedia entry (i get a kick of a theme having a Wiki entry) doesn't list any such ownership so maybe it's still independent.

    So far all points at just no one making a Dracula Mint theme, don't think i would be the one doing it though (and a quick search didn't get me a guide on making one either)

  • Anon wants a happy ending

    Jump

  • Seen the word "Bleakquel" used for it, but since it's handier to point people at, we have TVTropes with Happy Ending Override. It's so damn common because a happy ending means they cannot continue the story, so it must be ruined.

  • The issue is not the code, is all the infrastructure needed to develop something as heavy as a browser, which is what they have captive

  • Any suggestions for a link UNshortener?

  • Received a share.google link and checked what it did: It redirects to something with URL format "https://www.google.com/share.google?q=SOME_CODE", which is a normal page that IS the target as far as curl and such tools are concerned but redirects on the browser probably using Javascript, so it will not redirect it with our normal tools. It will need custom code or Javascript execution. So, they knew what they were doing and used their powers for evil, as they usually do now.

  • It is not enough for the increasingly common share.google links for example, and i bet there's more like this

    Edit: From a comment elsewhere:

    People on Restera did some digging: https://www.resetera.com/threads/nexus-mods-site-has-been-sold.1219452/post-141554013 Site of the company itself: https://wearechosen.io/ Here is a monetization "cheat sheet" that the CEO posted on LinkedIn which is linked on Chosen's main page if you scroll down: https://i.imgur.com/ztjS4K7.jpeg In the CEO's LinkedIn profile it says this: Working closely with teams at NexusMods and beyond to build meaningful, sustainable experiences If I had to guess the acquisition details are under some sort of NDA right now

  • The state of YouTube history search

    Jump

  • Oh yeah, that history search is absolute garbage and has been so for a few years now, it's sometimes easier to do a normal YT search, i've been tempted many times to do a periodic Takeout and use the result to do a proper local search, but honestly feels like too much work for the purpose

  • One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.

  • Is it a PTB move to ban a user if their only activity in a community is downvoting posts?

    Jump

  • I've heard this described as "the 1% Rule", which more or less goes like: In online communities, 1% of the users generate 90% of the content, 9% of the users create 10% of the content by reacting to, modifying or generally interacting with that 1%, and the other 90% of people are lurkers. This fits quite well with what I've seen on online communities myself for decades. So, if you alienate that 1%, your community will eventually either disappear or become a hollow reflection of what it used to be.

  • As someone who hasn't used any of the advanced Discord features (audio/video/streaming), and neither has really tried Revolt, how far along is it these days? I heard it was aiming for 100% feature parity but was behind in those advanced ones, but that was some years ago and haven't kept up, it would be very good if it was at least at "acceptable" level in all those by the time Discord goes IPO
