For free?

What unethical experiment do you think would be interesting to conduct? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] jef@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago

AFAIK genes only account for physical properties like hair color and shit, and upbringing effects everything else.

Source: someone I met who claimed to be a psychiatrist told me and I've never confirmed it or that she actually was a psychiatrist.

I've tried nearly every browser out there and these are my top 6 (none are Chrome) in c/technology@lemmy.world

Last I've tried it was about a week ago, it was as I described. FYI I am on a mac, so Linux/windows might be less buggy, not sure.

If we give human names to dogs, do they give dog names to us humans? in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

This led me down a weird chain of thought where I ended up at an internet for dogs, where they complain about smell profiles, and smellprint resisting browsers.

Floorp is a nightmare from my experience, I've tried it about 2 years ago, it was pretty cool but insanely buggy, I've been trying it maybe once every 2 months ever since and it hasn't gotten better IMO, if you customize almost anything in the ui, things will break eventually, and I always get frequent freezes and crashes.

At this point I just use Firefox with Betterfox user.JS and its been great, you get ff updates as fast as they come out since it's not a frok, also has all bloat and telemetry disabled, whenever I try out another browser I just switch back to ff for one reason or another.

It Might Be Time to Admit the Great VR Experiment Has Failed in c/technology@lemmy.world
[–] jef@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago

Its a shame, I would have thought that by this time atleast the price would go down enough for mass adoption, considering there isn't that significant of advancement in tech, atleast from what I've seen.

Mass adoption would push more developers to work on software for VR, which would pretty much staple it as a new form of entertainment consumption.

Which game is it? in c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world
[–] jef@lemm.ee 3 points 3 weeks ago

After playing with trains in factorio, then just staring at them go in pure ecstasy for 10s of minutes. I am now convinced I'm much further on the spectrum than I thought.

Damn those triangles! in c/memes@lemmy.world

I've noticed it let's me focus on the actually game more rather than overstimulating me with a trillion pieces of animated grass and hair folicles

confused about communities and servers. in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] jef@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I definetly understand the benifits of this, but a lot of these communities post the same or a lot of duplicate content.

Also didn't think about the nonsensical moderation in one community, so maybe mirroring them wouldn't be that great of an idea.

confused about communities and servers. (lemm.ee)
 

I'm new here, and have been looking into different communities to subscribe to, it's pretty difficult to decide which ones to subscribe to when theres often the same community on more than one server. (Example: internetisbeautiful on @feddit.de, @lemmy.ee, @lemmy.ml)

I'm not super savvy but couldn't they merge them and have the community hosted as mirrors of each other on both for redundancy? If I'm wrong, do correct me, again, not super savvy and also new here.

Gratitude for open social media alternatives. (lemm.ee)
 

A while ago I started loosing hope in the internet, even before ai it was mostly bots, and copy and paste articles. Everything is exponentially getting more and more malicious, with algorithms made to suck you in with obviously no care for the human user, just make stock go up, and make comically evil board members happy.

Not enough people are talking about what lemmy and bluesky have done, I'm not that tech savvy but from what I've understand their decentralized nature makes people always in control as opposed to one company.

Going on these sites brings me back to the earlier days of the internet, where it felt like interacting with real people, posting to an actual community, rather than being in one of those dystopian movies with slurm drinks and infinite amount of trash being pumped out by bots, to get as many views for monetization/outreach which is what pretty much all major social medias feel today.
