Yeah, I think it’s not unreasonable to be restricted given the contents - just wanted to note the change

Interesting, it wasn’t age-restricted a few days ago!

I can’t believe that my own copy of this spam is how I found out that we have lemmy <-> mbin dms working now lmao

Then why didn’t you write that 3 days ago in your first comment lol

Alright well since you didn’t check this yourself:

• I posted this at 2025-01-31T20:33:10+00:00
• The other post you commented on was posted at 2025-02-01T03:12:31+00:00 (i.e., I posted first and you commented second)
• This is a different community than the one you commented in ~2 days ago - welcome to federated communities

The linked listings seem to have already been taken down, RIP

You can’t just say that and not link it! https://github.com/wttdotm/nubmoan

Once in a blue moon, something that seemed impossible does become reality!

Gamers Nexus has done their own, seemingly similar testing (I haven’t watched it): https://youtu.be/L1NPFFRTzLo

I do some game modding, and sometimes have to hack together software to help with it, some of which ends up public.

One of my programs relied on the location of other, existing files and so would poke around at runtime to see where the user had launched it from, alerting the user if it was in a location where it wasn’t supported. If that happened, an interactive message box pops up with the title “UNSUPPORTED LOCATION” and text that says, verbatim sans my [notes]:

"Running [this program] from [unsupported] folder is NOT SUPPORTED, and is likely to produce errors. Run [other program] instead.

If you want to run [this program] from here anyway, type “I understand”.

You can’t skip or just “OK” the message to dismiss it, otherwise the program just immediately begins a managed shutdown of itself to prevent any of the aforementioned potential errors from occurring. I STILL had a user message me saying how making them type in “I understand” was a weird thing to make them do in order to use the program. Thankfully I think they’ve been the only one so far so it’s certainly not the norm, but the average computer user is also much less tech-savvy than someone downloading mods for a video game.

They are different, but to clarify, Linus Sebastian worked at NCIX (defunct computer parts / tech retailer), not NZXT (computer hardware manufacturer).

That doesn’t seem to be in the latest announcement, but seems to check out based on earlier statements

Another interesting tidbit:

I really appreciate the excitement for RDNA 4. We are focused on ensuring we deliver a great set of products with Radeon 9000 series. We are taking a little extra time to optimize the software stack for maximum performance and enable more FSR 4 titles.

The process described and shown by the screenshots does seem a bit much for a cancellation. Suing feels disproportionate when I first hear it, but are there many other recourses to force it to become more user friendly?

Fair point, but I guess I would hope that the person being paid to write the copy would check it, since getting that right seems like it’s part of their job description ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Or 53.6 degrees Fahrenheit if you believe whoever wrote the page for Nissan lmao. I guess they just typed it into a converter with no context, and the converter spat out an answer amounting to “if your thermometer says it’s 12 degrees C, that would be 53.6 degrees F”… but without that context.
