Meh. Having played CS since 2000, not excited to see bunny hop coming back. I do miss the old maps. Imo, I found 1.4 was peek CS

What is stopping corporations from hijacking the Fediverse by hosting massive servers? in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

[–] ShadowRam@fedia.io 25 points 7 months ago

1 - You can block/ignore entire instances. (spamming ones)

2 - If it gets big enough, you'll see legit instances band together and federate only among themselves (white-list, invite only to allow federation)

people will gravitate to these groups of instances if they are well moderated and keep that crap out.

Yeah, I have no doubt you are correct. It's one of those situations that if it were that easy, it would already be done.

Considering how critical a browser is these days.

I'm surprised there isn't a very popular Open-Source one that everyone is using.

Prime is better than Netflix imo.

As is Disney Plus.

No they didn't.

I never saw a simple program with a clean store front and no bullshit.

Valve's monthly survey reveals that almost 45% of Steam users on PC are still using Windows 10 even with the sword of Damocles hanging over them in c/games@sh.itjust.works

I mean, I tried for about a week...

Got a larger SSD and I wanted to reinstalled Windows, so I went through the whole getting Win11 thing, and it wouldn't let me install it. Although I have a full blown paid for Home Edition Win 10 linked to my microsoft account.

It said I had to install Win 10 first, so I did.. AFter all that, I went into windows update like is said, looked for the Win 11 update option... Doesn't exist...

My AMD 5800X and everything else on my PC supports Win 11. It's just not giving me the option.

So I gave up...

I'll likely use Win10 until SteamOS is released...

This is exactly why I don't play games on mobile.

I absolutely don't have the time to wade through that shit.

about a year ago, I was like, "It'd be nice to have a few mindless games on my phone"... tried like four... just ADS ADS ADS...

Even the ones where I liked the game, and wanted to just remove the ad bullshit for a price... nothing...
