If I own a community that’s related to a piece of software, service, or other community and someone who actually contributes to that wants it, message me and it’s yours. I stake no claim in communities, I simply want to see them exist and thrive.

I’m really scared for the election, because he’s projected a majority right now and god, we cannot afford a conservative majority right now…

ram@bookwormstory.socialto Free Video Game Giveaways@feddit.uk•[Epic] Football Manager 2024English1·8 months agoFor me in browser it just tells me I failed captcha. I have to open the Windows app to claim games.

ram@bookwormstory.socialto Work Reform@lemmy.world•Canadian Rail Companies Lock Out Workers. Union Says They're Holding the Economy 'Hostage'English13·8 months agoThat’s quite literally the point of a union. To hold that company’s production hostage in order to level the playing field with those who otherwise are holding livelihoods, futures, and survival hostage.
Can’t say I love them, but that’s okay. SMN looks good tho, I could definitely see myself using that top in particular in a glam.
ram@bookwormstory.socialto Canada@lemmy.ca•Entry to housing market feels out of reach for 76% of non-owners: CIBC pollEnglish131·1 year agoHousing is the jurisdiction of the provinces. There’s limited latitude with which the Federal government can act.
They’re not using those enough, but let’s not act like it’s all the fed, and not the provinces choosing to fuck us over too.
ram@bookwormstory.socialto Android@lemdro.id•Exclusive: Google Pixel 8a boasts 120Hz display, Tensor G3, DisplayPort output, better availabilityEnglish21·1 year agoYa, kinda tired of hitting the edges of my samsung, and their accidental edge touch protection’s kinda useless.
ram@bookwormstory.socialto Trackers: ꜱʜᴀʀɪɴɢ ɪꜱ ᴄᴀʀɪɴɢ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Tracker Tier ListEnglish11·1 year agoMyAnonaMouse is D-tier. Has very little content, and community-wise, they go for “family friendly” which is weird and uncomfy for what’s literally a piracy community?
ram@bookwormstory.socialOPto Games@lemmy.world•Chris Sayers reveals why he left Blizzard; fake promotions, lies, and gaslightingEnglish10·1 year agoThere’s also the poorly-aging belief that if you work for a big company that grants you job-security. People will gravitate towards worse, more corporate jobs because of that, even if it’s generally not true in the modern era.
ram@bookwormstory.socialto Games@lemmy.world•Ubisoft CEO defends Skull and Bones’ $70 price despite its live service leanings, calls it ‘quadruple-A’English3·1 year agoYa well $70 is only for septuple-A games. Nontuple even.
ram@bookwormstory.socialOPto Games@lemmy.world•Chris Sayers reveals why he left Blizzard; fake promotions, lies, and gaslightingEnglish41·1 year agoThe most heart wrenching for me is seeing the little tweet he posted when he was excited about his promotion. When he felt something good was happening for him, his talent and skill was being recognized, and his life was about to get better for it, only to have a sad reality crush him. :c
ram@bookwormstory.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Bluesky is now open for anyone to join | TechCrunchEnglish13·1 year agoThe usernames are just domains. Nobody can steal your domain.
i have a layman’s understanding of AT Proto, but it seems to compartmentalize between different parts of the service. Front ends, databases, and backends can be hosted separately and amalgamate into one, in the abstract.
Practically, however, AT Proto allows account portability, wherein users can swap what instance they use as a frontend on a whim, even if their home instance is down. Usernames are domains instance of username@domain, that are verified by the DNS. But AT Proto seems a lot less flexible than ActivityPub. We’ll have to see when federation is live, but I’m not sure it really suits anything beyond (micro)blogging.
ram@bookwormstory.socialOPto Gaming@beehaw.org•Hasbro Seeks to Sell IP “DND” and Has Had Preliminary Contact with TencentEnglish2·1 year agoSo same situation as Epic
ram@bookwormstory.socialOPto Games@lemmy.world•Hasbro Seeks to Sell IP “DND” and Has Had Preliminary Contact with TencentEnglish6·1 year agoCan you give some examples of companies that went to shit after Tencent purchased them, and what investor-pleasing behaviour they did that led to this enshittification? I’d genuinely appreciate that.
Bibliotik is better but harder to get into. Anna’s Archive is about as hard to get into as MAM, while having much better coverage of content. MAM also has terrible management of uploads with tons of unnecessary loose collections of books.
I’m not marking them down “for being nice”. I’m marking them down for being an uncomfortable place that wants to be safe for children for some reason.
