  • It’d be nice but would hurt indies because indies thrive due to not needing a physical port, and only releasing one once they are popular and successful enough to afford it.

    I guess you could include some verbiage that would target AAA studios, but they’ll find a way around it like they do everything else.

    And at this point, I’m not really fond of most AAA titles anyway so this won’t do much for people like myself to care anymore. Physical releases are something I care about less since other issues have arisen over the years, specifically in the quality of the game, itself.








  • The benefit of these is that they actively dry your filament as it rolls into the printer. At least mine does that which has been great to reduce the time needed to prep for my prints. Mine lets you set the temperature and it will keep that as it rolls in.

    I heard about the food dryers but this was my choice also because I have limited space in my smaller home. This little box is about the size of a spool and sits behind my printer and I have it automated to turn on when I turn on my printer too.



  • In addition to adblocking, some people use it for family censoring like blocking porn and gore on the domain level. It’s a more effective means as it would mean that your kid can’t go to ph on the family computer as well as their iPad.

    You can block individual domains if you wish but there are also a lot of lists out there that are generated and maintained by the community to include new sites as they arise.

    I like it for my iPhone for playing free games like solitaire and the like. A lot of these have intrusive ads but the PiHole effectively blocks the ads and I don’t have to have any third party apps running on my phone.

    Additionally, I set up a VPN on my Raspberry Pi so I can take this adblocking on the go too.

    You can also set up the PiHole to keep a log history which some people may want or you can use it to never keep the history for privacy reasons. I suppose this is another use case in ensuring your DNS server at home doesn’t keep a history of websites you visit from any device on the network.


  • I’ve gotten it 3 times from 2 different accounts. The first account sent it to me twice on two separate days. Ironically from an account that I had replied to months before it spammed me.

    Then it sent me it again a few weeks later from a different account, same picture but different name.

    I’ve blocked both accounts so far, so they may have sent more and I just didn’t see the other attempts.



  • It definitely happens here. I actually was surprised it could be detected on Reddit and they did anything because I’ve seen it on Lemmy first before ever hearing about it on Reddit.

    But I’ve heard it happen more so for users who are downvoting posts. I’ve heard both users downvoting on a large scale in a particular community as well as people downvoting a single post. Both receiving bans from mods of those communities.
