I've tried this on several maps like my old hometown or places in the world I've visited, and while it's not super accurate, it's super cool that it even works to begin with.

Definitely a great tool if you want to build some place from the real world and use it as the basis to expand on.

He's not getting peace, ever? Or what are you insinuating?

[–] donuts@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

This. In other communities MSN in banned as a source because of this reason. They just scrape articles and surround it with ads.

Quite possibly the best answer to the Putin talking point (and therefore, Trump's talking point) that he's a dictator.

A dictator would never offer to step down. I hope the people see it for what it is. We all know Putin will be unfazed and continue anyway.

On my W11 work machine I got dark mode, saving unsaved drafts and tabs

Ah yes, kernel-based anti-cheat and "proactive" voice chat moderation (spoiler alert: it's still reactive)

Also the ability to pay $7.99 for "free" in-game money. The irony.

Doesn't sound like a fun update to me.

I'm pretty sure it's satire, but if you're satirically are being a nazi the fun stops for me.

The sidebar with the rules is worth a good laugh though.

Here's my interaction with them outside the community: https://lemmy.world/comment/15208235

To be fair I haven't seen them pretend to be a nazi anywhere, so I thought it was rather tame.

Why not both? Filter support would mean you'd have to update your list continuously based on current politicians and depend on certain words being used in the title/body.

A tag would still mean you'd have to depend on OP to select the right one (or perhaps on a mod to assign the right one), but at least the amount of variables would be infinitely less complex

oh my god you always do this you always act like winning an argument is the same as being right when in reality all you do is shout louder and hope everyone else gets tired first which is exactly what happened last time when you swore up and down that the moon landing was fake just because you dont trust ladders and think that stepping on the same ground twice in a row opens a government surveillance portal well you know what maybe it does but at least im not out here accusing birds of being deep state operatives just because one looked at you for too long

Ah I forgot about Mario + Rabbids. I did buy that one, albeit second hand.

And I've heard good things about the Prince of Persia game before, but I refuse to give them any money. Mostly due to their business practices, sexual harassment suits and other misconduct.

There's plenty of games to play and love, so I'm not missing much. Regardless, thanks for the recommendations, I know you're doing it from a good place.

 

In the settings I've found card view and compact view, but even in card view images are not full sized.

Is there a way to enable this through some other means? I dislike having to open images all the time when scrolling to view the entire thing.

 

Discord’s Wellbeing & Empowerment team is working with Dr. Rachel Kowert, an internationally acclaimed expert in mental health, trust, and safety in digital games, to develop a resource to educate and equip moderators with strategies and tools to support their mental health and promote the well-being of their online communities. Moderators and community managers play an essential role in maintaining safe and positive spaces in gaming and digital communities, and we can’t create this resource without hearing directly from those we aim to support!

Basically, they are asking for input from moderators and admins who moderate to help shape development of moderator strategies and tools on Discord.

Was just looking up a song on the radio as we were talking about it. Seems like they forgot to remove a part of the prompt before pasting it

 

I love Sync for how it feels and looks, but user tagging is locked behind premium. In short, I don't have enough confidence in the app's future to invest in premium.

So I was wondering what apps are available, whether paid or free, that allows me to flag users like trolls, bad faith reactionaries and the like? Thanks in advance.

Edit: didn't realize so many different apps offered it, seems like I've been in a real bubble. Thanks everyone, will give them a go and see what suits me best!

This whole "manual" is like this. No idea how they managed to screw up so bad

 

I know some folks that chronically don't reply but react with emoji, so at least I'll get a notification now.

I can also see this becoming really annoying if you announce something in a large community and you get notified.

NOTE: Reaction notifications are currently an experimental feature limited to a select number of desktop and mobile users.

No update about this yet, but they have added info about how to edit your hosts file to get access:

We're probably going to wait this one out. We considered putting up a new domain but there are implications with third party services that make it not a trivial swap. In the meantime, if you know how to tweak your hosts file use: 45.33.107.166

If you did this, don't forget to remove it again:

⚠️ If you do edit your hosts file, please remember to remove all the lines after domain is restored.

Although we typically hold an IP for a while, it can change if we update our back-end infrastructure.

If you hit "next", the consent window opens again and if you refuse any of them, you get put back at this screen so you're stuck in a loop.

This shitty practice is even endorsed by Google, as they are promoting this game to try out and earn points.

Edit: game is called Jewel Gold Empire: Match 3 and it's from some Korean company it seems: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.penta.empire.google

Obviously I uninstalled it immediately after

 

After checking the achievement notification, I was presented with this:

Context: I still have an account after using PDS to alter/remove all my posts and wiping my profile, but I still get messages from redditors seeking help so I check in from time to time.

Texas Bighorn sheep return to Franklin Mountains

80 Texas Bighorn sheep were reintroduced by helicopter, the first in decades, to their natural habitats in the Franklin Mountains.

 

The world's oldest known wild bird has laid an egg at the approximate age of 74, US biologists say.

Wisdom, a Laysan albatross, was filmed by the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) at the Midway Atoll national wildlife refuge in the Pacific Ocean with her latest partner looking after the egg.

Members of the species usually only live for 12-40 years, but Wisdom was tagged in 1956 when she was about five.

Edit: trying to add a link to this post because it only added the image, but it's being a bish
