If they’re getting inundated with it to the point it’s affecting their actual mental health, then they obviously need to change something. Whether it’s the quantity or the quality of the content they consume. Logging off and going outside is always an option.

Is that supposed to be some grand statement? Yeah, I enjoy occasionally posting on stuff like this - never said otherwise.

If someone is engaging in a certain kind of content, I would argue that’s the content they want to see. It might not be what they enjoy seeing, or what’s good for them, but you can’t seek out right wing content and then tell me you don’t want to see right wing content. At some point, there has to be a level of personal liability here.

As someone that doesn’t use social media outside of Lemmy, it’s really not as hard as people seem to make it out to be.

I mean, it’s not like social media doomerism is some mandatory thing. The internet shows us what we want to see - if someone wants to spend their whole life reading about every possible bad thing in the world, that’s on them.

As with most doomer posts, 2/3 of that is just a problem of being addicted to social media - not necessarily a problem with the era itself.

I guess what I’m saying is that I think things will generally stay balanced the way they are. Monoliths are never going to completely die out, and neither are microservices.

They both serve different functions, so there’s no reason to think one will “win” over the other.

I mean, if anything, I would say microservices are the present.

As assaultpotato said, horses for courses, but I mean, microservices aren’t really a new concept at this point.

It’s called the linguini effect.

Speaking of analog: Light Guns don’t work on modern televisions due to the high latency relative to CRT screens (which had essentially zero latency).

It baffles me that they sell Chrome as private and/or secure, and baffles me even more that people believe them.

Traditionally, no. Under this new umbrella term, anything can count if you squint your eyes right.

It certainly makes it hard for me, as a fan of actual games like Rogue, to find said games when the genre is so flooded with literally every other game out there.

That’s the weird thing is that what people call a “roguelike” now is just what pretty much every game was back in the day.

“Turing Completeness” != “Turing Test”

Sorry to go on a well-trodden tangent, but it really is unfortunate how diluted the term “roguelike” has become.

One I haven’t seen mentioned (at a glance at least) is Noita.

Getting the “false ending” is achievable with some effort, but I dare you to actually finish the game. And as far as replayability, you’ll be hard pressed to have two runs that go the same. The amount of Butterfly Effect in this game from all the combinations and systems is straight up insane.

I really can’t recommend it enough.

I assume this is a joke?

I had it running on Windows (no container) a while back. Wasn’t particularly difficult at that time, at least.

Can’t give any advice here though, since all we’ve been given to work with is an OS.

Other than the double negative on that one question, I don’t really see what makes this survey “crappy”? Pretty standard stuff.
