I’m OK with actual honest to goodness videos on lemmy generally. It’s those fucking gifs that drive me up the fucking wall. Gifs should be banned from lemmy, they’re so heavily abused. 3 out of 4 “video” posts is actually just a 100mb+ gif. Use any fucking thing other than gifs. Fuck gifs. If I had a time machine I would go back in time just to prevent gifs from getting invented just so people would stop posting 1 minute long gifs all over lemmy. In fact, maybe I should plot and scheme to sneak the removal of gif support from the lemmy software git repo somehow the same way hackers got that ssh virus in.

Fuck gifs. Everyone needs to stop choosing to use them instead of any other format. Literally anything else would be better. Even drawing a representation of what happened in crayon would be better than posting a gif. If videos are too complicated to figure out you need to be posting a picture or maybe just go outside. Fuck.

Possession of marijuana is already illegal in Japan. Now they’re sending anyone to prison that’s tests positive for thc metabolites. Boycott these fascists, don’t buy stuff from Japan and don’t support Japanese companies if you can help it.

I’m going to boycott everything having to do with Japan from now on then. Putting people in jail over thc metabolites is absolutely wrong and absolutely unacceptable.

At least they’re not chic fil a. Imagine the same scummy business practices except they also apply “Christian values” to everything.

The CIA got 'em

Delaying pc release that fucking long. What consoles are they even trying to force people to buy? Consoles have become kind of a niche thing, now everyone has macbooks and pcs. Nvidia graphics cards have replaced the console pyramid scheme. Will Nvidia even allow them to do this? They develop the game on pc for fuck sake.

If I play the game at all I’m pirating it. There is no acceptable reason to release the pc version 18 months after the console version. Are there even going to BE any consoles out in 2026 that can run the game?

To me, Godot is the only game engine I would ever consider using. Unity is bad because you never know what shitty stuff they’ll do next. Unreal probably doesn’t work on Linux and unreal script sounds like a terrible idea. If I had to figure out all those extremely difficult math problems like angular velocities, quaternion math, rotation matrices and shit in an obscure programming language, I would stop to rethink my life choices. It’s already hard enough doing this in more widely used established languages even with decades of stackoverflow posts available.

Besides Godot, you can always make your own. Use a graphics library like orge or Irrlicht, a physics engine (reactphysics3d for example), something for sound like openAL and once you get them all glued together, you have a game engine.

I just want computer parts to stop being so expensive. Remember when gaming was cheap? Pepperidge farm remembers. You used to be able to build a relatively high end pc for less than the average dogshit Walmart laptop.

Honestly, if this somehow results in regulators being like “fuck it, piracy is legal now” it won’t negatively impact me in any way…

Corporations have abused copyright law for decades, they’ve ruined the internet, they’ve ruined media, they’ve ruined video games. I want them to lose more than anything else.

The shitty and likely situation is they’ll be like “fuck it corporate piracy is legal but individuals doing it is still a crime”.

I’m on lemmynsfw because I like to argue about how shitty society is between wanks

Lots of coffee in the morning and thc at night is the only way for me. I walked away from actual medication years ago because I couldn’t afford it anymore.

One of the few things they’re good at is academic “cheating”. I’m not a fan of how the education industry has become a massive pyramid scheme intended to force as many people into debt as possible, so I see ai as the lesser evil and a way to fight back.

Obviously no one is using ai to successfully do graduate research or anything, I’m just talking about how they take boring easy subjects and load you up with pointless homework and assignments so waste your time rather than learn anything. My homework is obviously ai generated and there’s a lot of it. I’m using every resource available to get by.

If you use ublock origin and watch a lot, they’ll eventually put your ip address on a list where you have to log in to watch anything. Newpipe seems to be able to circumvent this but yt-dlp can’t. I haven’t tried freetube but maybe freetube can circumvent that.

The world’s billionaires have to hurry up and throw money at ai until it can generate fully accurate impossible to prove ai fake images so that when pictures of them at Epstien island come to surface they’ll be able to plausibly deny that it’s real. That’s why they’re so desperate to invest in everything having to do with ai.

Milf porn is where it’s at. Speaking of which, I think I’m going to go find a cory chase video
