I have not watched the show, but I have read the books. Kind of simple, young adult. It doesn’t ask much of you, and didn’t really leave a lasting impression. Great premise though. I also read Sand by Hugh Howey, and can’t for the life of me remember any of it, whereas a lot of people seem to really love it, so maybe I am just the odd man out here.

My friends and I played and enjoyed Heroes of Hammerwatch, so I would say odds are good that we will pick this up at some point.

I would rather have content posted by humans. Lemmy doesn’t need to be reddit anyway.

They will just have to create a fee to “cover the costs” of having to tell you what they are going to charge you.

Pretty similar for me, but I never did Fark. Funnily enough after digg was sold and relaunched I started using the new digg pretty regularly. It isn’t old digg, but it does find and aggregate decent news and entertainment links.

We are in an apocalypse of sorts, its just the slow motion kind that unfolds over decades, long enough for people to try to ignore it. Things get a little more hard to ignore when the sky is brown and the sun in red.

I am enjoying myself. It seems to be surprising stable so far considering. Not sure how well it is going to go on Reddit blackout day, but then Reddit used to be down all the time back in the day too.

There are some more features and things that I am sure could be implemented, but with more users Lemmy will get more people who want to work on it as well. Nothing that couldn’t be fixed with time.

On the instances side, Lemmy.ml wants to be a flagship instance, but not a general purpose instance, in spite of the fact that everyone here seems to be using it that way. Beehaw seems general interest but strongly moderated and controlled with only approved communities. I just wonder if someone will build a successful mainstream instance.

I can’t imagine most people will want to wear that headset for more than the 2 hours the battery lasts. I know I haven’t when wearing existing vr headsets. I seem to max out at about 30 minutes.

I think to get to a consumer version Apple will want to drop all of the glass and metal and go for lighter plastic instead. They need to drop the secondary outward facing screen as well for weight, battery and cost savings.

If things can get comparable to thicker framed normal glasses, that will be when VR/AR can really become mainstream.

Honestly its just my local city subreddit, and the community for my favorite 2nd tier sports team. It has barely enough users even on reddit though, so it probably won’t survive with a smaller overall user base.

“Being obnoxious, mocking users, being abravise, or overall being a jerk is not illegal. You can always do it there, specially in subreddits with large numbers of subscribers.”

Maybe don’t be a jerk though, even though it isn’t illegal. That makes the world a worse place on the whole, and you would still be giving reddit more “monthly active users”

I have started trying to pay more for news access the last couple years. I don’t regret that decision. Its less than I pay for streaming television.

If the ability to be a digital nomad had occurred earlier in my life I probably would have gone for it. Now I kind of don’t want to be away from my parents because I know they won’t be around forever. Plus I have a house and other commitments I don’t want to be away from.
