@Mitsu Sounds perfectly reasonable! No one is willing to share his carefully selected collection of oddballs with a stranger.

@eris Not the frog only. Some tried to associate the "okay" hand gesture with alt right. That is just insanity on a whole new level!

@Mitsu Oh, you already have this video!
Didn't scroll down far enough, sorry 😅

@Mitsu I wish I could have one as a pet.
But they are basically large rodents so they have a pretty short lifespan, that makes me reluctant. Losing one would be so sad 😭

@FutaFanatic Wait, are they not?
Weren't same sex marriages in the US legalized around the same time Microsoft introduced the Windows+dot shortcut for emoji picker?

@tindall@cybre.space @elmiko@mastodon.technology Voting with money, supporting companies like these, making them less fragile and their products less expensive, sounds like a more plausible plan to me than sabotaging MS into not being evil (?!) 🤔

@Spudi Надеюсь, что там через дорогу есть Сбербанк. Чтобы можно было потом туда, где открывали карту, туда и приходить.

@Evv1L Его никогда и не было. Какая может быть защита персональных данных в стране, где ещё во времена медленного Интернета все эти «базы МВД» с лотка у метро продавались?
Это нужно было только для того, чтобы склонить международные компании сливать данные пользователей чекистам.

@blackmore Everyone seems to hate this "eat ze bugz" thing, but why? I don't get it!
No one makes you do it, there is a pretty good alternative: https://www.foxnews.com/science/japanese-scientists-create-meat-from-poop

I think I'll take the bugs though.

@sai Now we're talking!

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network @dushman And I got all the Assassin's Creed games I didn't have at the time and Sleeping Dogs — an entertaining GTA-clone. Not that bad, huh?
TBH there were really bad games too, I don't know how these games even made it into the game store. I don't remember the name, but in one of the games you had to run around the screen with some colorful… worms. That shit was just horrible!

@sai But that thing is not cancer! It doesn't even have pincers!

@yes @hfaust The free software crowd isn't exactly racist. They are just misanthropic in general.

This is the error message I got today on trying to retrieve an image from the web site of FSB-endorsed social network ВКонтакте. It literally says: too many requests from your address, you have to enable javascript to fix it. WTF?! This doesn't even make any sense!

@iska@mstdn.starnix.network Sickening georestrictions happened long before it became obvious to the rest of the world that Russia is bad.
Try browsing Soundcloud with an exit node in UAE — you'll discover a world of pain.
I've deleted my SoundCloud account after being a paying customer for several years because I couldn't listen to something called Imaginary Dragons.
Later I've realized that SC was trying to protect me, I've listened to Imaginary Dragons elsewhere and it was bad. Not godawful, just bad.

@dushman Oh, you get it! 🤣

@dushman BTW preorders are always bad. Nearly every company out there does stuff like this.
I mean you do get a rare ratdog companion, a shiny wooden sword and a cool hat that… you know, looks cool. But then in a week or two they start selling the game with a 50% discount 🤦🏿

@dushman It is! That is how market works. And that is why the companies in this business really like console market — less risks, higher profits, etc.
I mean I wish everything was cheaper, but if you look at how things work there is no evil conspiracy there. Well, in most cases 😏
MS ripped me off once when I preordered Halo Wars 2. The Most Complete Edition™ — so they claimed. But in less than half a year they've released a payed for DLC — never preordered anything from MS ever again.

@dushman CS was an extremely popular game when CS:GO came out. This was no experiment. But if you make on online stealth RPG about lizard wizards, there kinda IS a chance people won't like it 😅
So the risks go into the price. That is purely economic shit.
