Are you sure this is merely mildly infuriating?

Have you considered setting up a virtual drive throuh RCLONE and use encrypted cloud storage?

tchncs.de runs their own lemmy server along with many other services, at least they seem serious.

Well it's clear that the user stepped into the role of vzq, answering on their behalf. I'm just being polite.

While Nostrachadmus was known for making no predictions and mocking everybody else making semi-accurate predictions as something he could have done better himself. Nostrasmartass just mocked them all without claiming he could make any long-term predicions at all.

Past and future history is crazy.

Thank user vzq, yet I don't believe drone warfare was the trend at the end of the cold war nor was the US and China direct competitors in the way we see today. Come to think of it, wasn't the cold war about the US and a different country? I'm so historyless, lol.

Thanks! 😊

I did one of the subtitle translations a while back, seem to remember it had to be done with open/free use licence. I'd be surprised if you can't just re-edit the video to make it shorter and more to the point.

BO2 released in 2012, and now we're here. If it's not particularly hard for you to predict the future, what will be the major military and geopolitical trends of the next 13 years Nostrachadmus?

There are many different matrix IM clients, both for desktop and mobile. I'm guessing you're thinking of Element, the defacto standard client from the makers of the matrix platform? Some of them are more tailored to the "average user", like FluffyChat and SchchzshchildyChat (???)

IMO the variety of clients only make it more confusing for people unfamiliar with the ecosystem.

On top of that there's different instances. It's about as messy as the ActivityPub-based fediverse.

On my way to sue you for daring to type out the trademark "Nintendo" without proper authorization.

Sure and I agree. That's why I mention that I'm bummed out about not being able to attend big venue concerts any more. But I know why they're doing it and I understand the cost.

As far as I can se, every person who understand what this means is angry about it. But once one accepts that the vast majority of people are NPC's, not willing to sacrificy even such a meaningless thing as entertainment... This is what we get.

In fairness with the warped society we have, entertainment has become a value in it self, way more valuable than building a better world for ourselves and those who comes after. A consumer society to the max.

I've tried warning, I've offered alternatives, I've talked about the cost - But instead of people attending no-app-required baseball matches and build a new industry they begrudginly use the app, complain about signing away their privacy and just keep on eroding the world.

What are we to do but try to save ourselves?

Yep. It's all about what you value the most - Your personal privacy and integrity or watching specific people slap a ball with a stick.
