Oh my god, this attitude that someone is not allowed to be happy about some things because other things are bad drives me up the fucking wall.
Of course you're going to be depressed and anxious and feel like the world is ending and there's nothing that can be done besides wait for full societal collapse if you set these rules that you can't enjoy the good until things are perfect.
If I'm editing more than one object in AD I almost always use Powershell. It was one of the main motivations for me to learn it in the first place.
It's so obvious it was a GUI made for what was once a back end tool that wasn't meant to be fussed with all the time, but then had more and more features slapped on top over time. And don't get me started on the integration between AD and On-Premises Exchange Server. I don't think I have much more than a 3 hour long exasperated scream in me about that bundle of fuck.
functional but unreleased web browser
And people say the Dreamcast web browser was before it's time. Holy shit SEGA!
If you're up for a potential new addiction, Elite: Dangerous is a massive space sim game, and space trucking in single player mode is one of my favorite ways to relax. Pop on some Youtube, Netflix, or a podcast. Check in every 15 minutes or so to decel from warp and handle orbit amd landing manually (you can use auto-modules to do it but lose ~25% of warp speed due to "safety protocols", and the auto lander can get stuck in high traffic situations). It's an MMO, but you can choose to just get the econ, politics, and other sim stuff without risking other players ganking you.
If you really want to see neat stuff in it though, you can save up, kit out an exploration ship, and go discover crazy stuff in the unexplored areas of the galaxy. That's kind of mid-late game stuff though, the best ship modules for it involve a shit ton of grinding, and you have to go pretty far outside the core to find undiscovered areas. I want to get into it, but don't have the time.
That would be my biggest complaint with the game: almost all the community guides are made to get you the best, and the best usually involves 10+ hours of grinding. Give me the second or third best, thanks.
Does he really, or does he employ people who have this knowledge?
Even giving him the biggest possible benefit of the doubt, ignoring his politics, and ignoring just about everything else negative about him... so many of his projects miss their announced release dates with little to no technical discussion/disclosure on why.
On top of that, we only need to look at his short lived attempt to style himself as a particularly skilled gamer. If he was so clearly lying and cheating (by using an account built by someone else) on something that inconsequential, it should cast significant doubt on his other claimed skills and accomplishments (if none of his other shit caused that doubt for you yet).
I love how everyone is assuming that anon is saying that's why not to have an elven waifu. So wholesome.
Being a 4chan post, there's a pretty big chance that this is someone explaining why they get off to elven waifus.
Then block the user.
You know what is also using the system exactly as designed? Blocking the user or comm posting the content you don't like.
I don't like League of Legends. I'm not going to waste my time downvoting every post about it in the All feed. I'm going to block the LoL comm(s), and anyone who is only posting LoL news to the general gaming comms.
When it gets to the point where you're downvoting anywhere close to half of a community or user's posts, it's past time to just block them. You aren't personally responsible for curating the entire fucking fediverse, you're responsible for your own feed.
In an astonishing miracle, not much.
I'm sure there's some other shit that will come up, but we're doing good this year.
Last year we hadn't ordered most of the gifts yet.
And it's self-reported by the datacenters. I don't want to just say that their numbers aren't reliable, but they have a vested interest in downplaying their impact.
These are datacenters that get approval to use certain power plant styles with pollution capture technology installed that are then building more generators than approved and installing none of the pollution capture tech. So extra pollution and none of the mitigation.
It's worth noting that Penny's Big Breakaway is made by the majority of the people who made Sonic Mania. And the Sonic Android ports.
So it's very well polished.
Honestly? That's rookie numbers.
Preface
I'm not trying to call out the mod action of removing my post from the comm so much as I'm calling out the complete lack of mod action leading to the comm becoming shit and having the current top post by scaled, hot, and active being a post that explicitly targets another lemmy user.
That out of the way... !mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world has clearly been slipping from the purpose of the comm for a while now. Most of the posts are actually infuriating and/or political. I understand that what qualifies as either of those can be different for different people, but I feel most of this shit clearly isn't mundane or simple enough to fall under the label of just mildly infuriating.
Here's some examples from the first page right now, sorted by scaled.
While I could have sworn the sidebar had a no politics rule, it doesn't at the time of me writing this up, so politics are arguably acceptable, although I personally feel these all clearly don't match the theme of the community, violating Rule 7.
Sidebar, and expanded rule 7
A few other posts have been made calling this out.
Mod harder and [META] What actually constitutes "mildly infuriating" content?
################################
Beyond all that mess, we have what was the final straw for me.
Rule 1 (and less so 5), and the current top post by scaled, hot, and active.
I cannot accept that a post to mildly infuriating that targets a specific user while not even removing their username is respectful, and I personally consider it harassment (while it may not violate rule 5 as there is no call to action). Removing the username is usually the bare minimum even in the fucking reddit brigading subs, for plausible deniability.
And regardless of whatever arguments can be had about interpretations of the community's specific rules, it's a dick move. Just block the guy. It reminds me of the god awful reddit dogpiling and brigading. I don't want any of that to come to lemmy.
So I reported it, then saw the recent posts asking mods for action that got no response. I then looked at the mods.
So I did something dumb as hell. Roughly an hour after I reported it, I made my own post (now removed from the comm). I find people who make call out posts about others, and the absentee mods allowing it, mildly infuriating. Yeah, childish as shit. What's done is done.
Modlog:
Removed for "doesn't fit community", but what do you folks think? Does it really not fit when the top post is what it is? Personally I think both should be gone, lest that comm descend further into shit.
Either way, now that I have this yell into the void out of me, I'm blocking the comm. Maybe I should have made my post in actually infuriating? (kidding)
That is a threat.
From some back to school flyer.
I have so many great memories from childhood vacations to Mystery Flesh Pit National Park. I cant believe the disaster happened all the way back in 2007.
At least someone has been collecting and documenting everything they can find from the old place: https://www.mysteryfleshpitnationalpark.com/
I still can't make it all the way through the disaster report.
Definitely a repost, but it fits the season
Lol yeah, all these overengineered solutions. How often do you really need to share something larger than 25MB between devices and also don't have USB handy?
