How is the Reddit app at a 4.7 on Google’s Play store, but all of the relevant reviews that pop up are 1’s and 2’s?

Google must be ignoring some reviews to calculate the average score.

They should force Gamefreak to make a better Pokemon game. That would teach Pal World a lesson.

This sounds exactly like Amazon’s “Just walk out” grocery store concept that actually required remote supervising by workers in India.

With how trigger happy police are, the false positives would lead to more deaths than they prevent. And police would claim it’s justified because the machine told them so.

What agenda is that referencing? I’m out of the loop.

Helldivers 2 works on Linux by the way. It was the first game I installed on Linux and I have almost 100 hrs on it. I haven’t tried the others you mentioned though.

I switched to Linux Mint a couple months ago and use Steam a lot. I’ve tried at least 10 games and all worked perfectly.

But I don’t do competitive multiplayer. Those are more likely to have issues with anti-cheats. Although I did try Hell Let Loose and Helldivers very successfully and those are both major online titles.

Check https://protondb.com if you’re worried about a specific game’s compatibility. I’ve had silver rated games work perfectly though.

Edit: Apps - Photo editing and 3D CAD are the main areas I’ve struggled with on Linux. There’s no good Adobe equivalent, and no good Fusion 360 equivalent. Free CAD exists, but that can gently fuck off.

Looking for office equipment recommendations on Reddit recently, every single thread had fake suggestions that were clearly advertiser accounts. They sounded incredibly fake like bots that pulled descriptions from Amazon, all had similar links with tracking, and all were upvoted to the top.

But what if they’re riding a horse and the horse does something silly? What then?

I just dual booted Linux Mint yesterday when I was reminded of the Win 10 end of service date, and hope to keep with it as my main system.

Linux has come a long way with compatibility since I last tried it ~10 years ago. The fact that Steam games ran perfectly without an evening of configuring settings blew my mind.

There’s a video at the bottom of the article. https://youtu.be/ISgHpUDeLBw

Not to brag, but my mom let me have her old palm pilot from work.

Guess I was pretty cool when I peaked 20 years ago.

I get that they’re successful, and it’d be fantastic if this became the trend. But Battlefield and Call of Duty sell consistently with much less development effort and a lot lower risk of flopping.

It looks like Call of Duty is typically 3 year development cycles, and one took only 1.5 years. Baldur’s Gate took 6 years.

Oooh. Thanks for that, makes more sense now.

He’d have to work 3.7 million years of 40 hour work weeks at US minimum wage, $7.25.

Pretty well highlights the insanity of $56 billion.

The focus issues are actually over-exposure issues that then lead to focus issues.

I want to live on a planet where people don’t associate Elon Musk with technology in any way.

Don’t forget some states want us to give our government-issued IDs to porn sites. What could go wrong.

Think of the children.

“Modern Windows software” sold it for me.

It’s almost modern time right now!

Yeah that’s fair.

Merchandising is the only palatable idea I can think of.

More likely to happen:

• Twitter’s verified user subscription strategy

• More ad posts with paid-priority (priority hidden from users)

• Layoffs with AI as miracle cure

• Selling user data for AI training (check)

• Paid API access (check)

But it’s really hard to ignore that its function isn’t really designed for profit and it’s wacky that we have to humor the idea.
