I thoroughly enjoyed. If you have even a passing interest in the Harry Potter universe you'll like it. Exploring the world, Hogwarts, and the gameplay/combat/flying is very fun. I enjoyed the story too, but it wasn't anything revolutionary.

Veneers are extremely uncommon in the US. That's what they've saying. You said it seemed like everyone here had them.

I mean, it was caught on video by someone that was there, saw him starting to do it, and recorded it. They don't need a confession.

Except that Lemmy doesn't show overall karma, so there's no use in doing any of that here.

Why do you think it's bits? I haven't noticed any bot activity.

Not a terrible list. But there are much better sources out there for audio reviews and opinions.

Crinacle.com
Head-fi.org
Soundguys.com
Soundstagehifi.com
Stereophile.com
Whathifi.com

I'm sure there's a few others.

The alternate ending is better. Though it still doesn't fix what they did to Barney in the last episode. Multiple seasons worth of development, just thrown out. Almost pissed me off more than the original ending.

That doesn't make any sense. He's lost 10's of billions on Twitter. Nor do banks operate in that way This is just who he is.

I'm gone for good. I've been looking for good alternatives for a long while. I really don't agree with what reddit has done, but I'm glad they did it. Because it created the desire for so many to seek change. Reddit has been a cesspool for a long while.

I completely understand the sentiment while simultaneously completely disagreeing. The idea of the fediverse, and seeing it play out explicitly with the various multiple posts and other things is kind of sexy to me in a technological and aspirational sense. I dig how janky this whole thing can sometimes be. It's part of the appeal for me. As it matures and becomes more streamlined over time all of that will surely change and get cleaner and easier to use. Which will be awesome to see. But I greatly appreciate what it is now for the time that it will be. Being in close to the ground floor of this is really fun. I loved Usenet back in the day. I remember and loved reddit at the very very beginning. I love and appreciate this shit for what it is while it still is this. This has legs. And people will be nostalgic for this time later on. Love it now too while enjoying watching it grow.

A better way of phrasing it would be that reddit is saying the protest isn't having much of an effect. Which is clearly not the case. Or that the protest is working in the sense that it's dramatically disrupting reddit. The stated goals of getting them to change their policies seems unlikely to come to fruition though.

The most mindboggling thing about all of this to me is if Reddit had just improved their own app to be up to par with the multitude of 3rd party apps out there, none of this would have been an issue. They could've migrated everyone over to the official app easily with just a better experience. If a single person can wrangle an app together that outperforms the official one in a month, Reddit has no excuses. Personally, I'm delighted all of this has happened, as it's allowed for multiple viable alternatives to be populated. Which I've been wanting for a very very long time.
