Because I don't care about Oculus. I was only interested in the social media aspects of the company.

What did they expect? You're running a high profile emulator even used publicly by massive streamers on a current gen system. On top of that Nintendo is the Disney of video games rabidly attacking anything unofficially using their IPs. The shocked Pikachu face by Yuzu pirates is hilarious. Sony would have done the exact same thing had a high profile PS5 emulator sprung into existence.

Y'all are fucking pirating. The simplest answer is always the correct one when it comes to people. This isn't a complex issue. Like it or not it made sense for Nintendo to shut it down.

I stated it didn't count because I was only curious as to the social media portion of Meta's business.

Facebook is still where nearly everyone is though. Your feed is what you make of it. They have a feeds section in your tabs that only shows your friend's posts in chronological order.

Congrats on your transition btw. I'm happy for you!

 

I was watching the live Cornell bird camera in Sapsucker Woods New York when these three kids were caught trespassing. There's something you don't see everyday on the ol' bird feed.

Not counting Meta Quest. I'm curious about the adoption of Meta platforms amongst Lemmy users.

I fell on my bike onto the pavement going 12mph. That's it. Not very fast whatsoever compared to some cyclists.

I ended up busting 4 ribs in half and fractured my scapula (shoulder blade). I was wearing my helmet w/front visor thank God because it's amazing how quickly your head smacks that concrete. I went face first too and the visor + helmet completely spared me any head trauma.

Never felt pain like that in my life. The agony of getting loaded onto a gurney with that many busted bones isn't something I wish to repeat.

My ex said if we ever broke up he'd be moving to Thailand. Lmao he was a walking middle aged white bro stereotype.

This is great. Put a smile on my face this morning.

 

Thought this was a beautiful photo I saw today on Mastodon.

 

I simply didn't like the device. At first I loved it, but after the honeymoon period I found myself slowly regretting my purchase.

The phone is simply too heavy. The thing weighs an absolute ton. I'd have to rest it on a pillow when browsing because using the phone for more than a couple minutes would start to hurt my wrists.

The inner screen felt largely useless. Apps were rarely formatted for the aspect ratio of the interior screen, and even some apps that had foldable support on Samsung's offering were bizarrely absent on the Fold namely Facebook.

Apps aside even consuming media using the tablet display felt bad, again, because of the square aspect ratio severely limiting the viewable space. Movies and shows had black bars that made the viewing area only marginally larger, if at all, than a slab device.

The Tensor 2 just isn't a great chip. It makes no sense that Google launched a 2023 flagship device that's twice the cost of a Pixel 8 Pro only months before said Pixel Pro with LAST YEAR'S processor. What the hell? We didn't even get the extended phone updates that the Pixel 8 Pro received guaranteeing 7 years of support vs 3. $1800 for a phone with half the support and an outdated processor missing all the AI capabilities Google is currently leaning into heavily going forward.

Not even the camera was as good as the Pixel 7 Pro's. $1800 for a phone that's technically worse than last year's $800 model with the same chipset all for the folding gimmick that hardly adds anything to the experience but weight.

I had never been happier to get rid of a phone and go back to a slab with the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Honestly I don't think I could be convinced to go back to a foldable as for my use case I couldn't find a purpose for a "kind of" tablet.
