Technology@lemmy.world•Rather than fully cracking down on scam ads, Meta worked to make them harder to find - Sherwood NewsEnglish
6·15 days agoIf you are on Android, Revanced has several ad-free versions for popular applications like YouTube and spotify. I paid 30 bucks for a lifetime subscription to AdGuard back in 2019 and the experience has been extraordinary.
It’s always a jarring experience to use someone else’s phone. Ads take up at least a third of the screen at any given time now. I’m not swimming in that shit.

20·15 days agoI deleted my Facebook profile last year after 18 years and never looked back. It’s a totally different platform than what I signed up for almost two decades ago. Absolutely zero value for me now.
I’m so glad Valve is releasing a VR headset so I don’t need to have anything to do with a trash company like Meta.

10·1 month agoYeah I don’t understand how a private company deploying cameras on the side of roads is even legal.
Does that mean I can build solar powered raspberry pi units with cameras that do the same thing and pepper them around the country without question?

Technology@lemmy.world•Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies insteadEnglish
171·1 month agoI just installed a 4TB nvme Crucial SSD in my new build solely to put games on.

At least your teacher will know why students submitted their assignments late.

110·2 months agoYeah I’ve read too many Decky horror stories. I’m not giving my Steam Deck AIDS to change the startup animation.















Anyone else think a seismic shift is coming for gaming soon? Like “Crash of 1983” level of catastrophic.
Triple-A games just don’t have any heart and soul while crammed full of micro transactions. Shovelware makes it harder for good titles to float to the top.
Indie studios are our best hope.
