  • What was the most under rated British TV show ever for you?

    Jump

  • You beat me to it!

    Some of the episodes are weaker than others, but the depth of characters on the first episode got me hooked on the show.

  • Microsoft CEO warns that we must 'do something useful' with AI or they'll lose 'social permission' to burn electricity on it

    Jump

  • I willingly learned excel in the past 15 years!

    I have since moved on to open source replacements.

  • Rule of 4

    Jump

  • You should add that to your post so that people know what your community is about

  • Rule of 4

    Jump

  • What is the point or purpose of your community? What is the rule of 4?

    When linking to a community, it's easier to link it by typing !RuleOf4@lemmy.ml so that people on other instances can use your link

  • Hytale is Canadian :)

    Jump

  • The community is called "Buy Canadian", so it's about buying Canadian.

    I get what you mean by "not wanting to deal with the corporations" but If they have a name, they are likely a Corporation. It's like saying you don't want to drink chemicals, but everything you drink is chemicals, even water.

  • Non-latex non-animal condoms are quite common where I'm from, are they rare in your country?

  • I love choice. I hate choosing.

    Jump

  • Some of them you need to open the image in a new tab/full-screen it to see.

    The ports on the laptop are different in each image.The resolution of the ports is much, much higher than other parts of the image.

    The image has a bunch of fake compression artifacts.

    One character in the second panel has an eyebrow, the others don't. The line-weight on the eyebrow doesn't match the rest of the comic. That character has its mouth open, but the speech bubble isn't connected.

  • GOG and CD Projekt founder Michał Kiciński acquires 100% ownership of GOG

    Jump

  • Depends on the share structure.

    If the shares are retractable, then the corporation can buy them back whenever they feel like it. The shareholders consented to this at the point of allotment, because they are supposed to have read the articles before purchasing.

    The monostructure of shares is one of those things that movies/t.v. shows nearly always gets wrong. I was happy that Succession got it right, because they definitely needed to for that story.

    If you've ever heard "I now own 51% of this company!!" on a show, they are hand-waiving things so hard. Some resolutions need a larger than 2/3 majority by the laws of the country/region for specific tasks, and some corporations have extremely restrictive quorum requirement.

  • "Triple-A is in crisis" and games "don't have staying power because they're bad," says ex Gears of War director and Painkiller creator

    Jump

  • There's even more than one Power over Ethernet 2s, and both of them are good games, often played by similar groups of people.

    (Pillar of Eternity 2 and Path of Exile 2)

  • 2025 Fedecan Instance Census is now open

    Jump

  • Two issues:

    1. You can choose all answers on multiple choice questions, including choices that are mutually exclusive.
    2. a lack of definitions of terms. Is a town with 150 people "urban" because you have a street address and most people don't work in another town/city, is it "suburban" because you need to go to a different town to buy groceries, or is it "rural" because that's how most people who live there self-identify?

  • Who is an artist or public figure you still enjoy despite them being cancelled for bad behaviour?

    Jump

  • I don't enjoy or like public figures. Having never met them, I cannot like them. I do enjoy the works or products of some people, and knowing the person(s) who created something can influence my chances of consuming it.

    There are some people who have done, or accused of doing bad things, but they have created works that I enjoyed.

    AKA, I never "liked" Neil Gaiman. But I do like American Gods.

  • Critical motherboard flaw allows game cheats, Riot Games blocks 'Valorant' players that don't update BIOS — security patches pushed live by all major motherboard vendors

    Jump

  • The companies do this, because if there are multiple games in the same genre, being know as the one full of cheaters can make players go to your competition instead.

    Some players take this seriously because they have nothing else "positive" in their life going on. If you can't get a decent job, or a romantic partner, or save up for a house or retirement, or you have no chance on taking a vacation, at least you can win at something.

    There's nothing wrong with video games as a hobby in general, but it should not be your whole life

  • RiftScape: new project (very early stage)

    Jump

  • They describe building something "with soul" but also that they used AI to code it.

    I'm glad they're honest about it, but this doesn't interest me.

  • What are your teachings?

    Jump

  • If it can be done today, it cannot be done tomorrow.

  • Reddit Cares

    Jump

  • "now" is odd phrasing from an 8 day old account.

    I think I've seen this artist's work posted here for over a year.

  • How can we stop bots on the fediverse?

    Jump

  • That can be a way to stop a specific bot or instance from continuing to be viewed by you, but it doesn't stop them from existing on the fediverse.

    One of the main upsides to the fediverse is that it's open and connected. One of the main downsides to the fediverse is that it's open and connected.

  • ‘Your Free Speech Does Not Apply’: Suspended UC Berkeley Lecturer Speaks Out

    Jump

  • The first amendment's "free speech" means that the government isn't able to charge you for what you say (unless it's like a death threat, or hate-speech)

    The right to free speech is not applied in any other circumstances. It's not about your workplace, it's about the government.

    You do not have the right to say whatever you want at work. They could even make a policy that saying "thank-you" was against the interests of the company, and fire you for saying "thank-you" too often.

    People from other countries should not know the laws of your country better than you do.

  • How can we stop bots on the fediverse?

    Jump

  • There's nothing that can be done to stop it, but you can downvote or block things to try to reduce their reach.

  • It turns out Saudi Arabia will own 93.4 percent of EA if the buyout goes through, which is effectively all of it

    Jump

  • Depending on the bylaws, articles, resolutions, agreements, and other organizational documents, 51% might not be enough to do anything.
