What else do you call an unprovoked, politically charged attack?
Some don’t even seem to sleep, with the amount of time between comments.
It’s a melting pot, fucker.
Hundreds of thousands of people.
The fact of the matter is that casual gamers and console owners overlap with Facebook and all generic social media.
We know that we only Lemmy are small, so we should try to keep in mind that our understandings and opinions of generic things in the world are the uncommon ones. Madden sells. FIFA sells. Call of Duty sells. Grand Theft Auto sells. Trying to criticize these outside of Lemmy will only result in losing even more faith in the general public, if that was even possible.
Better yet, ask TheOub about Tiananmen.
Scorpio actually has compassion. He just also recognized that a few workers burning alive was steps towards innovation!
I’m not sure I agree with this… it’s like if no one is around to hear a tree fall, does it make a sound?
Is something like Plex an option? Get a hard drive, set up a request system (Ombi), then a little app on their phone can take requests and download the shows they feel like they’re missing.
Done right it’s a one time set up, and an up front payment but over the course of a year I feel like you’re saving the cost of either DirectTV or the streaming services.
Also, you can tell them that DirecTV simply licenses shows the way streaming services do which is why they won’t lose any content.
DirecTV also may something they prefer simply for what they’re used to. At 7pm the same show comes on every day. If that’s a part of it, my previous suggestion of a server for media is able to put together TV channels using something like DizqueTV. I understand that it’s a bit of effort, though.
I’m… How did I not know she died? In 2022? What??
From a fall in her home? Oh my goodness.
There’s also the whole interaction in how the CEO treated someone who wrote an article and he wouldn’t leave her alone after asking him to stop.
From his perspective I get it, you want to have good press and try to clear up any misconceptions. But how he went about it was very unprofessional and far too pushy.
That’s just naieve hope. He would sell out his country for a bean.
