Fedora considers "privacy-preserving" telemetry

    1Password said they wanna do the same thing. It's just so hard to believe that they'll actually do it/be able to do it. Like can any company really be trusted?

    Clickbait title... But

    I think this is a good idea; giving folks, by default, more control over what is going onto to their systems. Reduces the bloat and the ISO size is definitely useful in certain situations. Power of choice to the users!

  • I applied for a Beehaw account a week ago and it looks like it was approved but I can't log in. The Jerboa app says incorrect login and on the website the login button just spins. Anything I can do?

    I did the neopets thing too! I remember having to ask the local library to acquire books that taught HTML and CSS so I could learn it!

    Curious of other's thoughts on the term "beat" the game. DAE feel like it's outdated?
  • HawkXero HawkXero 1y ago 100%

    Yeah I get you. And honestly so few games these days have an actual ending anyway. Open world, sandbox, ancillary objective, and multiplayer games have changed the way we look at games in general. I can't remember the last time I "beat" a game. I mean maybe a few months ago when I finished the main storyline of No Man's Sky, but did I really beat it? No, I just finished one of the many quests.

    Super Mario 64 is a game you beat. Most games today, you just don't.

  • Relay For Reddit dev is considering monthly subscription of $2-3
  • HawkXero HawkXero 1y ago 100%

    I've used Relay for nearly 10 years, my entire time on Reddit. I'm sad to see things go this way and for the developer to play Reddit's game. What a disappointment. I would love love LOVE if the same app infrastructure was focused on Lemmy/The Fediverse. It's such a great app. What a shame to see it go this way.

    I've tried logging in and all I get is the spinny of doom on the login button after entering my credentials. I've also kept an eye on my email and spam folders as well.

    Might just have to be patient and wait a couple more days I guess.

  • I submitted my application a couple days ago and still can't login. I know there's a "limbo" for denied applications. Perhaps I'm stuck there? I have this account in lemmy.one instance but Beehaw is definitely more the vibe I want for my home instance and I'd really love to be part of the community. Is there anyway I can find out more information about what's going on with my application?

    It's just my humble opinion, but I'm not a fan of the new look to have the score and arrows visible on the main page. I feel like it's *too easy* to vote and move on and not truly interact with the post. Also, the numbers play an immediate influence in whether you want to check the post out or not. It's too easy to make a snap judgement and I feel like it reduces engagement overall. Just my thoughts. Would love to hear others as well!

    What's the longest time you went on without sleep and why?
  • HawkXero HawkXero 1y ago 100%

    About 50 hours. My wife was pregnant with our daughter and things went south real quick. Ended up in emergency surgery and our daughter spending a week in NICU. My wife is still dealing with issues from the ordeal, but my daughter is 18 months old now and she is just an absolute treasure and sooo smart! We're so thankful to have her in our lives.

    I'm new to all of this, can you explain the difference between Lemmy and Kbin? And why would Kbin get missed over initially?

  • Like my home instance is lemmy.one, but if I wanted to create a community on some other instance would I be able to do that? I assume not, and that I'd need to create another account on the instance the community is local to. Is that correct? Still learning this whole fediverse thing.

    This is an interesting signing if it pans out as this player doesn't really fit into current roster rules in MLS for FC Cincinnati. This may be an indication that with Messi signing for Miami, MLS may be loosening roster restrictions league-wide
