If you want to avoid counting towards reddit's traffic, take a look at LibReddit / LibRedirect

TOTK performance on switch is not bad at all. I don't know where what perception came from. I haven't experienced any low frame rate issues after 100 hours.

Did you enjoy BOTW?

I have a bad sense of direction IRL but an excellent sense of direction in games. I don't think it necessarily transfers. I love open world games.

I agree, it's been pretty bad for a few years now at least.

 

G/O Media, an online media company that owns Gizmodo and Kotaku has announced that it will begin a "modest test" of AI content on its sites.

Anything that challenges the status quo is inevitably going to make some people uncomfortable.

Is there anything like this for kbin?

The IARC ruling [...] is intended to assess whether something is a potential hazard or not [... and] does not take into account how much of a product a person can safely consume.

From the article. ^^^

This is something people frequently overlook. A substance may be a "possible carcinogen" and also completely benign at levels any sane person would consume.

Bananas also contain carcinogenic material, but eating bananas is still very much a healthy thing to do. There's a reason banana equivalent dose is a concept, and "the dose makes the poison" is a common refrain in toxicology.

It sounds like YouTube is running experiments with small groups of users. You may not see anything until it's rolled out to everyone.

Elden Ring again after taking a break from it for a while. Exploring new areas, it's fun.

Nutritional yeast is also amazing. Gives it a cheesy flavor, and it's healthy to boot!

I prefer to airpop it in the microwave and then spritz EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) on afterwards. EVOO is delicious, and unrefined oils like EVOO retain more flavor if you don't heat them.

 

And it doesn’t really matter if it’s technically a trust.

 

I recently read his article about enshittification and watched an interview where he talks about "chokepoint capitalism".

I also really like scifi and from what I've heard he writes scifi. What scifi book(s) of his should I start with if I like these political / economic views of his?

 

On an article I see: boosts (x) | reduces (x) | favourites (x)

What does "reduces" mean, what effect does it have, and how does a user reduce a post?

I see the link to boost a post, and I see "more" but this doesn't contain a "reduce" link.

 

If you're like me, you have a habit of typing reddit.com whenever you have some time to kill at a computer.

Kicking habits takes time, so as you develop a new habit of typing kbin.social (or lemmy.world or whatever the case may be), consider a browser extension that blocks or redirects traffic from reddit to your desired new social media destination.

For Firefox, I have found these to be helpful over the last week:
