Dota callouts have some interesting ones.

“I gooed the squirrel a bunch, catch her and let Lion finger her.”

Edit: And considering that Lion’s “Finger of Death” ability is shortened to “fingering”, you can guess what the callout is for its upgraded form, “Fist of Death”.

Unfortunately, neither fixes this. Grayjay seems to work, but its inconsistent in my experience, often repeatedly returning to the beginning of the video part-way through.

Generally, its because people don’t know its an option, or how to do so. Like, even knowing its a good idea, I have no idea where I’d start looking to buy one and I’m fairly informed around tech.

Thanks for your thorough answer. That was my understanding from the research I was doing as well, but I am probably even less of a lawer and was hoping someone with more experience could check my work.

I’m a bit confused as to what you’re asking for? Just like, programming project ideas that benifit the Fediverse? Or specifically something related to promoting Lemmy on Mastrodon?

As I said in the post, I understand the technical side. Its the legal aspect I’m asking about. For example, yes, you can freely download a reuseable launcher from GOG, but as its only granting you a licence to the game, that licence can’t be transfered (without GOG’s permission), resold, ect. and if the licence is revoked, continuing to use the installer would be piracy. I’m asking what happens if any of these stores shut down legally. Would licences be revoked/invalidated, or how would that work?

You’re buying a licence either way. Its not like you can resell your GOG games or anything. If that licence is revoked or invalidated, continuing to play the games is piracy. They say you will have three days to backup your installer, but what happens to the licenses in that case? If they end when GOG or Steam go under, legally, it doesn’t matter what DRM is used.

It might be possible that my standards are just higher regarding that. I left Reddit (relatively) ealry, and when I did use it, I think the War Thunder sub was the biggest I participated in. I know it was worse in the bigger subreddits and got significantly worse over time. Since Lemmy doesn’t have any niche communities, and has fewer users in general I think that can easily push toxic users to the forefront and make it harder to avoid them.

Is least compared to where I spent my time on Reddit before the api was removed, I’ve actually found Lemmy far more hostile. On Reddit, I found discussion fairly light-hearted with even more divisive discussions generally given the benifit of the doubt. On Lemmy, on the other hand, I can make a relatively uncontroversial statement like, “Steam provides useful tools.” and be called a fanboy shill who supports fascists.

I’d agree if not for the fact that TikTok knowingly choses to use an algorithm that promotes stuff like this. In the same way, if someone was putting up bilboards suggesting mixing cleaning chemicals, or if someone was taking out TV ads promoting violence, sure, the responsibility might not only be on them, but they knowingly chose to take part.

Edit: forgot the word mixing

Is there something you mean to tell us?

I’m currently using a model M clone (thats like 40 years old) but the lack of N-key rollover is killer for even simple games.

Ducky One 3 TKL RGB in white is $179 CAD, so even more expensive. That said, I guess its probably worth the extra money compared to the backlight-less version at least.

The reason it matters is because if you use faulty evidence (or in this case, questionable evidence) to try and sway someone, it just makes you look untrustworthy as Elon claims everyone who criticizes him is, and risks entrenching them against you. If you’re making statements with complete certainty, you need to have near-unassailable evidence.

The idea that we should just go “well, we already knew he was a nazi supporter, no need to comment when he does an apparent nazi salute on the inauguration of the president he bought” is pretty silly

The point isn’t to ignore it. The point is be honest to the truth, including any uncertainty. Jumping to conclusions or acting like you’re certain when you’re not only serves to weaken your position. If you’re trying to prove Elon is a Nazi, you should point to all the statements in support of Nazi ideology and his complete refusal to condem it even when relevant, rather than something that could just be regular stupidity.

The fact that he is openly a nazi-supporting white supremist is the only reason I say I’m not confident it was an accident.

But again, my whole second paragraph: Why does it matter if it was a roman salute or not? Why do we need to point to this specifically? We knew he was a Nazi before this and had clearer proof to point to then, and since then, he has not changed at all and continues to provide clearer proof. If doing a iffy, off-angle roman salute is what worries you and not the racism, sexism, homophobia, misinformation, lack of respect for human rights or justice, ect. then I think you’re misunderstanding why Nazis are bad.

A refusal to apologize doesn’t mean it was intentional originally, esspecially when trying to appeal to his Nazi friends. Elon Musk is deep enough in the far right that he knows how to do a roman salue (IE not sideways and not with a bent arm).

Read my comment.

The bigger and more undeniable red flags are all throughout his past, and continued after the salute, such as his refusal to apologize.
