I don’t think ever. Twitter has too big of a brand name and recognition, where X does not, and they’ll keep coasting on it (their emails to you still say “formerly known as Twitter”). News sites and places will keep calling it Twitter because X is too confusing of a name, and certain parts of their reader-base will simply have no idea who it is that they’re on about, and some social media will call it Twitter because X is a silly name, and they do not respect Elon Musk’s rebranding of Twitter in much the same way that he does not respect his daughter’s name or identity.

Maybe lights on the wall, or sound reflecting off it weird?

Mustn’t forget the limited edition pre-order special shelf wallpaper.

Information might also be leaked through data breaches. An email is not a particularly hard thing to find, or even guess.

A spammer could easily just have a computer iterate through all possible combinations of emails and usernames, and shotgun it.

Especially for a name like OP’s. If their email is a similar name, it wouldn’t be difficult for generate one that is also two words.

They really want to force gamers to buy the old games, just as they were, because those are next to free to adapt to a different platform and people will pay for them.

Nah, if they had wanted that, they would continue to release them in that format. As it stands, they don’t, so you can’t buy those old games from the publisher either.

You can’t have criticisms about the game if you put it on a shelf instead of playing it.

Libraries facilitate widespread piracy of books, by allowing people to read them without a distribution licence, or even take them home!

This is a clear violation of the DMCA, and thus must be stopped immediately!

He’s probably tried to excise someone from the mortal coil/plane once or twice, does that count?

It’s not bad, just mostly redundant these days, as the heuristic features are no longer enabled, and the defaults ublock lists will cover a lot of the same.

And that the requirements for those minimal improvements are vast. If you need to pull down 200GB for a minor graphical upgrade, that’s just not really worth it compared to an older game that is a bit graphically worse, but is both smaller, and runs better on newer hardware.

Your LLMs are furries. That is their fursona.

But if you’re immortal, you can also think much longer term.

You can just keep working, or, if you’re the truly immortal type, where you don’t have biological needs, and are impervious to disease or injury, just sit back, since you don’t need to pay for as much as a regular human.

Although getting to that point would be quite difficult. Someone being truly immortal is so far out there and so difficult to prove that it’s much more likely to be something more mundane. Like identity theft, or a clerical error.

Front burner’s all burned out, and the replacement hasn’t arrived yet. 😔

Ah, that’s unfortunate, but understandable.

Particularly with the modding scene. You can’t exactly do a randomiser with the cartridge.

Just make the screen one gargantuan pixel, and infer the other 2-million.

I didn’t, actually, but thank you.

The Star Trek ones over on startrek.website. They weren’t the most active to begin with, though their activity has dropped a bit more over time.

That “little more complicated” is asking for a lot, though.

Say you’re coming from Reddit, or Facebook, or something.

It would not be unreasonable to believe that, like Reddit, every single Lemmy instance is its own separate, self-contained site.

And that’s even before figuring out federation works, and how to access things from outside of your instance, or all the nuances that come with defederation and all of that. You made the mistake of joining beehaw? Whoops, all the other “subs” are now inaccessible, because beehaw is not connected to any of the others.

Central places like Reddit don’t have that complexity. Reddit communities are singular, and there’s no overarching layer to complicate things. A community that disagrees with another, and blocks them doesn’t affect your experience as an user.
