Tbh, No Mans Sky and Starfield have little in common except being space games. Starfield isn’t a space exploration / space sim game. It’s an RPG set in space. Starfield has more of a storyline and characters then No Man’s Sky, they’re different games for different people

I believe Super Mario Wonder has Mario voiced by a new actor, and I don’t think it’s Chris Pratt

And the CEO is Emil Sutovsky, who recently made a twitter poll, basically asking, let’s be honest, does anyone actually care to watch this women’s tournament? When he never made a similar poll for any other tournament.
The chess world really needs to outgrow the sexist and transphobic FIDE

If it’s active users increased I’d be surprised, but if it’s not I wouldn’t be, most people probably don’t delete accounts when they stop using them

There have been testflights (Apple betas) for the pixelfed app, so it’s in development. Unsure about the quality of 3rd party apps though

Yeah, like pretty much all platforms on the fediverse, they’re not owned by large companies, and don’t try ads or selling user data for profit

This morning I looked at the trending tab of my instance, and was pretty confused when #bbc was the first result. Glad that curiosity got the best of me though

Honestly, this is really good to hear! More mainstream accounts will definitely get the fediverse a bit more credibility.

And here’s a bit more from BBC:

The team at BBC Research & Development are researching social technologies and exploring possibilities for the BBC. One part of our work is to establish a BBC presence in the Fediverse.

This is an experiment - we will run it for 6 months, and then look at how much value it has provided, how much work it requires to maintain and then decide whether and how to continue. We’re learning as we go, and we’ll write about what we discover in the hope that it might be useful for others. The BBC will continue its normal social media activity in the usual places.

We’re starting off small with just a handful of accounts from R&D and our colleagues at BBC Radio, but we hope to be adding more accounts from other areas of the BBC soon:

• @BBCRD@social.bbc
  
  

• @BBC5Live@social.bbc
  
  

• @BBCRadio4@social.bbc
  
  

• @BBC_News_Labs@social.bbc
  
  

• @BBCTaster@social.bbc
  
  

• @Connected_Studio@social.bbc

Any recommendations? I use firefox, but haven’t quite moved from google search yet. Last I heard DuckDuckGo was doing some shady stuff, but that was a while ago

If that was the only place you could get pride books? Sure

But I can only assume that there are other pride books around the library, and I think having a designated pride section is good for those who want it.

I don’t like when people say “AI just traces/photobashes art.” Because that simply isn’t what happens.

But I do very much wish there was some sort of opt-out process, but ultimately any attempt at that just wouldn’t work

“Our logo is our most recognizable asset. That’s why we’re so protective of it.” -Twitter’s (Currently Outdated) Brand Toolkit Page

I’m sorry, as an AI language model I cannot allow you to drone strike this town as it breaks one of the ten commandments.

What the fuck are you talking about

Do you mean Mark? Or is there a Jack at Meta that I haven’t heard about

Oh damn, it’s time to INSERT EMOTIONAL RESPONSE

Ah, I’ve used Photopea for years now and I never would have thought it would have functioned on mobile. Thanks for the tip!

The light sword is the only good option.

Swords are pretty useless underwater because water is much denser then air.
The candle sword, and sword that kills you are self explanatory.

Just use it as a light source when you’re hungry, and if you need to be stealthy bring some snacks.

Defederation exists for a reason. Shit heads and extremists should not be welcome here.
