Yeah I think of downvotes as like micro-moderation, or crowd sourced curation. It's generally a good feature. They can be annoying sometimes but it's better than the alternative of bad/spam posts/comments flooding your feed.

Make a Github pull request, examples:

https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site/pull/347

https://github.com/LemmyNet/joinlemmy-site/pull/354

the instance needs at least 5 active users

Also they probably want to avoid the issue of a user accidentally sliding it all the way to the left and then being unable to use their phone lol, there'd be no way to fix it except finding a dark room (if you were even aware of what happened and why your screen "won't turn on")

yea idk, it's maybe like a fun bonus sometimes, but it's kinda like trying to put the square peg into the circle hole (where it doesn't fit, unlike the famous meme video lol)

Unpopular opinion: IDK why people want perfect interop so much, I have a Mastodon account and a Lemmy account, big deal. We've got bigger fish to fry than this. The formats are different enough that you're better off having separate accounts for microblogging and threadiverse.

Interop for similar platforms is a great feature, but for dissimilar platforms I don't think it's actually necessary just a novelty. Also I think people try to push this on new users as some big, useful, important feature, but I think it only confuses the new users.

Also I noticed most of the time when people complain about ActivityPub interop issues, it almost always ends up being Mastodon's fault lol. Probably because they were early to the party and didn't have to worry about interop and standards much back then. At least I hope it isn't malicious lol.

I think probably the biggest holdup for 0.19.6 right now looks like https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4983

I subscribed to the issue so I can see its progress

This means game devs will start focusing more on better performance and optimization, right? ...RIGHT?

Watch Digital Foundry, very very few AAA PS5 games can do 4k AND 60fps (which is what I assume you mean by "high framerates", although 60 isn't really that high it's just mid). Probably none of those are doing ray tracing at the same time. Most PS5 games have upscaling enabled at all times because they're rendering at much lower internal resolutions. PS5 Pro is not even twice as powerful, it's not going to be capable of pushing 4x as many pixels per second. There's a reason why they're still talking about their upscaling algorithms.

"Advanced ray tracing" is not a technical term that exists it's just marketing speak. And obviously they couldn't say path tracing because they won't be doing much of that like a 4070 or 4080 can do.

Here Digital Foundry is comparing the PS5Pro to the RTX 3070 Ti, which is much weaker than the 4070 https://youtu.be/W2wOn8zS8dU?t=3577 (the 4070 has more VRAM than the 3070 Ti that they mention there)

The 4070 is similar to the 3080, which is a pretty decent lead over the 3070 Ti. The 4080 is leagues above them all.

[-] Die4Ever@programming.dev 6 points 5 days ago

It won't come close to a 4080 so that isn't a sensible comparison. I think it's estimated to be slower than the regular 4070.

IDK why you mention 4k and max settings and high frame rates, PS5 Pro won't do these things. It's not even twice as fast as the regular PS5 which in many games drops below 1080p 60fps medium settings.

That's a cool idea. There have been somewhat related discussions, but I can't find any exactly like that. Maybe you should file an issue on GitHub for them?

I haven't used Jerboa in a while, but I know Boost supports almost all of the search features

Once upon a time, in a galaxy not so far away (this one, in fact), a few internet rebels decided that they were tired of the corporate overlords controlling their online lives. Thus, the fediverse was born — an attempt to wrest control of microblogging services, such as Twitter and its ilk, away from centralized powers and into the hands of the people.

Isn't this what upvotes and downvotes are for? Do they only want posts about billionaire mega corporations? 10% is a really strict cutoff for people that make things as a hobby. What else am I gonna post when everything else is already posted instantly? I can't post to r/pcgaming for the same reason.

I'm not trying to sell anything, it's a free download, my videos aren't monetized, I don't accept donations. I'm an active commenter too even if I don't make many posts there. My posts get lots of upvotes with good ratios, and I space out my posts so they're not frequent at all.

Also the fact that they count it site-wide instead of sub-wide means if you create your own sub or use an appropriate niche sub, you're gonna screw up your own ratio.

SmashManiac originally ran the site but recently converted it into an open source project. Here's the announcement

You can view the new open source version of the site here

It's still early in the transition but I've converted it into a Jekyll build based on yaml data. Unfortunately I've been mostly working alone, we'd love some more contributors! If you know any of: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Jekyll, or Liquid templates then check out the Github and maybe submit some pull requests to help us out

We'd like to keep the project simple, but here's our issues list for ideas

I set the polling interval to never but I still get notifications for some reason. I know I can disable the notifications at the system level, but I would rather the app doesn't do the polling at all currently. Android 14, Pixel 7a.

Vanilla Fixer: automatically applies compatibility fixes without changing the game at all.

Zero Rando mode: features many quality of life improvements and bug fixes. Based on Deus Ex Randomizer but without the randomization.

Randomizer Lite mode: keeps the randomization subtle, without moving anything or breaking immersion. Similarly there is a Randomizer Medium mode which enables a bunch more randomization features without getting too crazy.

All with good Steam Deck support!

Lots of things not shown in this video because I tried to keep it under 3 minutes. Features such as the integrated bingo board, support for Crowd Control, brightness boost adjustment, and looting improvements, which are all available options even in Zero Rando mode!

The Dragon Ball Official News page for this has been removed, but I'll update it if the article is reuploaded. Here's another news site with info and an X post with a screenshot of the original message.
