Honestly, I like the concept of this game. If you dropped all the proper names you mentioned and just call it "Just Be Nice" it would be palatable to 1000x bigger audience. You don…

It's called FOMO and it works. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear_of_missing_out

Yes please! More of this!

Firebase is Google. I don't know why they deserve different levels of trust. If Firebase has your permission to harvest your sync info, there is no reason to think this doesn't get…

That's interesting, I thought public playlist listeners would just use YouTube. If not to have access to your own musical choices, what is the point of Spotify?

there are a lot of people in the "not that great" and "still into it I guess" camps. Those just don't make headlines. Also, some morons can only read headlines. Don't worry, the wo…

In this case, someone who made a playlist. Reputation of the knowledge and tastes of the playlist maker would normally matter, but since this is purely a numbers game at this point…

if you pay people to listen to your music and they still hate it, maybe writing is what you should be doing anyway

Just don't use public playlists. You can already disable explicit. Disable "autoplay similar songs when your music ends". This is Spotify itself selling playlist placement though, …

As far as I know, this is also an image commonly used in machine learning tutorials for image classification of species of flowers. I don't know if the tutorials use the mediawiki …

I think it's also probably easy to do this with stadia since it's effectively 0 users. What would he say if steam treated devs like google does?

IMO, all of these (from all the subdirs) should be in the top level README: https://github.com/yue/yue-sample-apps/blob/master/auto_heig... You're asking people to do a lot of clic…

I had to go way to far down in the page to find someone who actually read it.

Why all the graphs and details about bandwidth when latency from the controller to the screen is really the thing that matters. They mention it several times and never show any mea…

nevermind, the contents of the primary links are completely uninteresting anyway

middle click broken and the sizing on the desktop is for blind people

It won't. Look at 4chan. It's one of the "free-est" platforms around and it's absolutely full to the brim of garbage that most people do not want to see. Let them build a cesspool …

Many have. This is more or less how I learn every new programming language. Generative music is really fun and immediate. Anyway, I think the first time I ever saw anyone introduce…

Ultimately I want to support devs who support Linux, but if it works on Proton doesn't it also get the flag on steam for support of SteamOS/Linux. I am only going by the Steam flag…

I regularly go through my Steam wishlist and remove any game which doesn't support Linux. I am probably the only one, but it is something I do.

Seriously, people don't understand how opt-outs are nonsense. Say I am facebook. In 2020 I make an opt-out data grab. I turn it on and grab all the data, and then put up a site to …

In EU opt-out schemes are illegal if it has anything to do with personal information. a person has to opt-in to share personal info.

Not all heroes wear capes

There are a lot of people who don't care at all about their personal info, and the only negative effect of an identity theft is having to call the bank and changing your CC# (my mo…

the fact that you were at any time automatically opted in means they already scraped your whole history anyway. They will do it again in the future anyway since you will be automat…
