Tetris effect (not the game)

The ‘Experimental’ layout is now enabled by default for all non-TV devices, introducing a new navigation layout and updated UI components.

Anyone got pictures?

run the first attempt with all their wallet info in production? Even a vibe coded wouldn’t be that stupid

Oh the things I have seen cryptobros on twitter do, you would not believe

Possessor (2020)
Maybe not a direct sequel but man, I just wanted to see more of that universe.

AI “artists” are weirdly very protective of their “”“craft”“”

We’re at a point where the improved user experience is enough justification.
Every service ever is putting revenue above costumer satisfaction. Every streaming app gets in the way of what you want to watch so they can funnel you to the same 3 Movies/TV Shows. Searching is almost useless you get a few results related to your search term and the rest is unrelated garbage.
The other day I was watching a movie at a friend’s house on Netflix. When you hit pause, the movie minimizes into a card on the left and the rest of the screen turns into a fucking advertisement.
Like, not even a “recommendation” for another movie on the service, just a full blown ad for something else, ours was a food delivery app ad.

I’ve gotten spoiled by the Piracy experience. Over here it’s me first and me above everything.
None of my ‘services’ fill my screen with ads for their new season so the shareholders can recoup their half a billion investment.
They show me my media and get the fuck out of my way. It’s refreshing.
The apps are made by people who actually use them daily and there’s no pressure to make a “return of investment”, they just make the best user experience they can and that’s it.

I saw her glare at me out of the corner of my eye

As if you were the one putting the Ads into Prime lol

Motorola and Xiaomi are still releasing Dual SIM phones over here, it works as expected.

Fucking duh.
Carriers fucking suck in every metric possible, you have to be insane to want to get their shitty support and shitty apps involved in anything more than the strictly necessary

google TV that will suggest a show on viaplay or prime or whatever, and it is the only thing I cannot get rid of

GoogleTV as in Smart TV running Android TV, yeah? Get Projectivity Launcher!

I use YADM which is a thin wrapper around a bare git repo but still has some creature comforts like per-machine configs and templating.
Since you still need to interact with Git, I pair it with Lazygit. Love that software, I do everything Git with it now!
Unfortunately it is a little jank due to the way Lazygit handles bare repos, thankfully there’s a command that sets up the needed Git variables for it to work correctly: yadm enter lazygit

I send the repo to my own Forgejo instance. Kinda overkill but I was already self-hosting other services so I thought “Fully private Git server just for me? Why not?”

Now, this is only for managing user level files. For managing system level configs I haven’t setup anything yet.
YADM has a solution for this but it seems a little jank, maybe I’ll learn Ansible instead, dunno.

Modern integrated GPUs have gotten pretty good lately. If it comes a day where we can’t buy GPUs, we’ll be able to enjoy older titles without much trouble at least…

Just taking this opportunity to remind everyone that the Limewire you knew is no longer. From Wikipedia:

Name reuse by unrelated companies
In 2022, Austrian brothers Julian and Paul Zehetmayr bought LimeWire’s intellectual property and turned it into an NFT service.
LimeWire’s name was revived in 2022 for an unrelated music-based NFT platform, an action with which Gorton expressed displeasure.

Please don’t use no crypto bro NFT infused trash. Go watch the segment from Archive.org.
Seed the torrent if you wanna spread the word.

It’s infinitely safer than this sketchy ass company.

They could. But Java is much more moddable, so whatever they did the community would undo almost immediately.

Bedrock has been doing shitty monetisation for ages. Play Java, enjoy.

TW: Potentially the dumbest comment I’ve ever read on Lemmy.

Oh yeah? Go beat Talos Principle then.

Ngl, it pisses me off that number 4 on the Top 10,000 list is “Clean Baby Sleep White Noise (Loopable)”

Small studio and indie titles on 50% off steam sales has been my jam of late

Oh, same.
The wacky performance I’ve been getting on Talos Principle 2 has been annoying me though. Wish they stayed on the Serious Sam engine instead of switching to UE5

One of the commenters said:

“avoid building a PC right now” is advice I’ve been following since 2017

And honestly yeah. I guess at this point if you can afford it, just pull the plug whenever, it’s always some bullshit going on the PC Market anyway.
