You need to stop doing that yesterday. That’s literally what this meme is making fun of. The issue isn’t difficulty cleaning, of course it comes off. The issue is putting huge amounts of fat in your drains or septic system that will lead to massive problems down the line.

Yeah, most families where I live keep a grease jar. You don’t throw it out, bacon fat stays good for months, it’s like a little tub of Crisco but a thousand times better tasting.

They both are. Both agreements can be terminated for any reason. Larion’s says nothing that would prevent them from terminating the agreement, it only clarifies that the signer can. There’s no real difference here.

Have you ever cooked bacon? That’s about the only grease I’ve known folks to save. Maybe some from ground beef if you’re cooking up a whole lot.

You’re inventing a lot of enemies here and listening to no one.

Nobody is claiming all mobile games are gacha, just pointing out that all the ones you talked about initially are, and they wildly dominate the market.

Honestly I don’t know why I’m bothering, I have more to say but this a waste of my time.

And yet you jumped all over people claiming to have played enough games to be able to recognize crap when they see it. Again, you’re dismissing real people while standing up for what exactly? Defending corporate garbage?

I enjoy the occasional mobile game too, I don’t have an issue with your general opinion. But you certainly aren’t convincing anyone with the childish attitude and ridiculous reasoning.

The hypocrisy of claiming that you can’t judge any game without physically playing it yourself, then turning around and judging thousands of people you’ve never interacted with based on a couple interactions, is absolutely staggering.

Consider giving human beings the same benefit of the doubt that you give to software.

Deleting my post is violation of freedom of speach.

Repeating it doesn’t make it true. Sorry, but that’s simply not what the first amendment is about. ‘Freedom of speech’ means you can’t be arrested for a YouTube comment criticizing our glorious Cheeto (yet). It does not grant you control over the content other people choose to publish to private websites.

These spaces are not free, public spaces, and they have never been. Stop living in this fantasy world. Twitter is not a town square, it’s Elon’s private club and he can do whatever the hell he wants. The only thing I can do is choose not to use it, and focus on sites run by people I’d rather support.

You’re judging the gaming habits of the entire population of Lemmy based on a couple anecdotes from random threads? And you want to talk about not making snap judgements?

Based on what exactly? I’ve gone to one of his events, he’s pretty explicit about being a science educator. I can’t say I’ve seen him claim otherwise anywhere, though people definitely like to put those words in his mouth.

Freedom of speech is a protection from persecution from the government, not an obligation for all other parties to be exposed to your speech.

Websites are private spaces, and like most private spaces, have their own rules to abide by. It’s their right to make those rules whatever they want, and people can choose the rules that make a more pleasant space to occupy.

If you want the freedom to be hateful and hostile to people, feel free to hang out on 4chan. Forums are typically more tightly controlled, especially specific topic forums, with discussion tightly controlled to keep things on the subject so the site stays useful and not buried in irrelevant content.

Didn’t DOGE already cut support for the Panama facility? Something along those lines was in the news a couple months ago

People also shouldn’t just be able to make money off of other people’s creations without limits.

IMO, ideally we would implement a system of ‘open licensing’ where people could freely use others IP as long as they pay a public, standardized percent of revenue based on the usage.

It comes from the FFG Star wars RPG system and its method of creating multiple success/failure conditions. It’s an entirely independent system to the light/dark side force mechanics.

That’s fair if it’s not solving a problem for you, but it does add something new that resonates with a lot of people (at least it did for me). I’m speaking from the Genesys side so I don’t know how daggerheart handles it, but I absolutely loved it. I found it made skill checks more collaborative, my table would suggest ideas for how to interpret the roll, and having more to ‘explain’ got people more descriptive in how they talk about their actions. We went from ‘I take a swing. Nope, that’s a miss’ to ‘failure with advantage, ok I go in with my axe but I can’t get through this guy’s defenses. For my advantage, I want to hook this guys shield with my axe so the next attacker gets a boost die to hit’.

It does make checks more involved, but I prefer fewer, more impactful checks as a general rule anyway.

I’m nice to ai because that’s how I typically type anyway, it’s been shown to get better results. Using good vocabulary and respectful language seems to prompt the AI to use similar sources, which tends to increase the quality of the output.

“Fan”

That’s the part that precludes payment. Fan works legally have to be free, that’s what makes it not copyright infringement.

That’s pretty much exactly what I’m saying. If you offer software that requires outside servers to run, you should be legally obligated to release the code used to run the servers if you discontinue supporting that software. That doesn’t make mmo’s any different, just a minor change to how they handle end of life.

Yeah if you think most people are going to care or even know about this, you haven’t been paying attention to the last 20 years.

Or people are used to this concept and accept it normal instead of unethical behavior that should be illegal.

Why would people here care that much about this? This kind of material exists on any site that allows user submitted content, and the only solution is aggressive automated moderation, which winds up hurting everyday users. Would you prefer that anyone who uploads a song or podcast that names a drug be automatically removed and have to be manually approved?

These are low-effort scams to steal credit card numbers, it doesn’t seem like any of these had an actual avenue to purchase drugs. They should be removed for sure, but this is hardly some wild breach of responsibility.
