Here are a few examples of what I’ve seen them do in the time I’ve been alive.

• Lowering the amount of educated people by various means such as cutting (on not properly increasing) funding, restricting access to it,…
• Limiting access to (somewhat) correct information by buying up news media outlets, severely influencing social media, telling people that their “alternative media” is the only way to get correct information, and so much more
• Actively pitting groups of people against each other, black vs white, immigrants vs citizens, women vs men,…

I don’t know OP, he very clearly knows the rules of connect-the-dot, so chances are he at least has played it a bit and might even like it.

Yeah that’s disgusting. I wish OP could provide us with a link or a name so we know which streamer to avoid.

While not official, this used to work fine for me when I had a streamdreck

For people like me that hadn’t heard bout the theory.

“The dead Internet theory is an online conspiracy theory that asserts that the Internet now consists mainly of bot activity and automatically generated content that is manipulated by algorithmic curation, marginalizing organic human activity”

Care to share a link to where you can buy your advent calendar?

While I was also part of some niche communities back in the Reddit days, thanks to Lemmy, I switched to Linux and have found interesting new websites, tools and apps. So I’d say overall it’s a net positive.

True, which again brings us back to “piracy is a service problem” which imho it totally is. I never pirate steam games.

It’s also great to check if my aging pc is even capable of running it somewhat smoothly.

Vscode does have a lot of shortcuts, so you could always study them in detail and impress others that way. 😅

Yes, but if you want to argue along those lines, you could also have an infected version of vim on your system just waiting to do malicious stuff until you give it sudo access.

Alternatively you could use my favorite approach, Visual Studio Code. Just open the file with it, edit it and upon saving you will be promoted if the file needs admin rights to save.

Dude, you’re memes are single-handedly carrying lemmy for me.

Then ad blockers could use this information to know which part of the video is the ad and block it again.
