While it wasn’t 100% free from hate, Heroes of the Storm had significantly less of it. Similarly, GW2 has a far friendlier community than WoW, because game design does matter.

r1veRRR@feddit.deto Technology@lemmy.world•TikTok says it’s not the algorithm, teens are just pro-Palestine — The company denied allegations that it has been promoting pro-Palestine content in an effort to sway American opinionEnglish2·1 year agoAm I a poor little victom instead of an oppressor because I didn’t personally create patriarchy, white supremacy, ableism, heteronormativity? If I keep supporting those systems, at least when I’m an adult, I am an oppressor and fully responsible.

Considering they’ve talked about using nukes, that they think sacrificing an entire hospital full of innocents to maybe kill a few Hamas, and that we DAMN WELL KNOW how racism means generalizing anyone of a group to be the worst kind of that group, and the fact that the totally un-Hamas west bank is getting ethnically cleansed too, it’s incredibly naive to think they’ll leave any reasonable amount of palestinians alive.
r1veRRR@feddit.deto Technology@lemmy.world•Blocking is going to be deleted from TwitterEnglish11·2 years agoTwitter has all the content. I want the content. Therefore I’m on Twitter until most of the content moves. In addition, I hate how most of the fediverse social media has no algorithm. The algorithm is how I found most of the content I’m interested in in the first place.
r1veRRR@feddit.deto Technology@lemmy.world•Blocking is going to be deleted from TwitterEnglish13·2 years agoI do actually care about the content they “push”. Most fediverse apps are pointless to me exactly because they don’t have an algorithm. Unless you already know EXACTLY everything you’re interested in from the start, finding new stuff is the primary and best feature of the “algorithms”.
r1veRRR@feddit.deto Technology@lemmy.world•Blocking is going to be deleted from TwitterEnglish87·2 years agoImagine a website where EVERYONE sees the exact same content. You could just calculate that content once, save the result, and give everyone that pre-calculated result. This is called caching (roughly speaking).
Now imagine the other extreme: NOONE sees the same content. That means you have to do your (comparatively) expensive calculations every single time. That requires a lot more compute power, esp. if you want to maintain a decent speed.
Most websites aren’t entirely one or the other, but in general anything customizable will make things just a little less cache-able, and therefore everything a little more compute-intensive. Blocking is one of those customizations.

That’s news to me.
r1veRRR@feddit.deto Technology@lemmy.world•Thousands of authors demand payment from AI companies for use of copyrighted worksEnglish11·2 years agoNothing about todays iteration of copyright is reasonable or good for us. And in any other context, this (relatively) leftist forum would clamour to hate on copyright. But since it could now hurt a big corporation, suddenly copyright is totally cool and awesome.
(for reference, the true problem here is, as always, capitalism)

Is a VPN even worth it for that use case? A seedbox won’t cost that much more, esp. if you factor in electricity costs from keeping your machine running. And getting to 1.0 seed ratio is also much easier.
