the smell of heavily chlorinated water. i used to spend a heck of a lot of time at the pool when i was a kid, and where i live now there aren’t nearly as many pools, so it’s not something encountered often anymore.

I missed this one a lot

If true: Well, that’s the end of that platform I guess. Shame, I liked that there were so many alternatives cropping up.

There’s a lot of types of bigotry and other general nastiness that are not covered by that.

Normally I would not be so nitpicky with language but if multiple admins were removed / quit over it, that’s pretty suspect.

Now this actually looks pretty cool! They’re obviously trying to play off the increased hype around streaming services with the name and presentation, but that’s perfectly fine if it gets the public more interested in astronomy and the exploration on space. Big plus that it’s coming to Roku as well, that’ll save me some trouble.

I think stuff like this: https://lemmy.ml/post/1167199

is what’s more provably worrying. Modlogs are public, and if I’m interpreting this information correctly, I think the devs are engaging in scummy practices.

This script works as an app attached to your user, and rate limits itself so it doesn’t break - that’s why it takes so long, though. Took me 25 hours to shred a 6 year old account.

To do a full scrub of everything you’ve ever posted:

1. Request your GDPR data package here: https://www.reddit.com/settings/data-request
2. Wait for it to arrive
3. Use shreddit to fully delete everything: https://github.com/andrewbanchich/shreddit

This will take a long time if you’ve posted and commented a lot. This works better than PowerDeleteSuite in my experience, as PDS missed a lot of stuff that was older than a certain point.

There is a way to make it not delete your comments and change what the edited message is, check the readme in the github link.

Detonates a C4 on yourself, killing you and anyone closeby with an explosion

My standard advice to anyone new or returning - check out mastercomfig if you’re experiencing any performance issues or just want to squeeze out a bit better graphics from your setup. Thing’s a godsend.

Funny time to ask, a seasonal update just came out and the game apparently broke its peak playercount numbers.

If you are going to keep trying to avoid the actual point I’m making by conveniently refusing to read or acknowledge the post I’ve linked, then there’s nothing more to say.

…Dude, that literally links to a post on this instance.

https://lemmy.ml/post/1167199 <- this is the link.

It’s stuff like this that makes me think so.

You know, if that’s truly the only reason and it turns out I’m wrong I’ll gladly eat that L, and it would be a relief. I’ve just heard some iffy things specifically about it all.

EDIT: it’s stuff like this that I’m talking about.

A quick Google gave me Mali, which is why I said as such.

But frankly I do not believe it is about being cheap, I do indeed think it’s as the other comment said - Marxist-Leninist.

Yes, I’m aware. My point is why did they pick .ml, specifically?

Lemmy devs are/aren’t tankies

What does the ml stand for in lemmy.ml? I don’t think the instance is based out of Mali…

I scrambled, shredded, and then deleted my Reddit account after getting my data request back. I’m done with that place because I can only see it going downhill from here - site will only get more enshittified over time, this was the tipping point.
