Opinion - What are your thoughts on password managers? Do you use one? Would you recommend it to others?
Bitwarden. Integrates extremely well on Android and on my PC in Firefox.

Is having an Android really a deal-breaker for some people?
What are blue and green bubbles, wtf?

Look, I'm lazy, okay?
This is why I switched to fish; it seems to be much smarter understanding what I want to type.

why can't we have federated identity ?
The whole point is to be decentralized. You can still interact with communities on other instances, so what's the point?

Its been one day without Reddit
I think I need to redirect reddit.com in my DNS to lemmy.world, because my muscle memory always brings me back to reddit

Does it feel like the fediverse is exclusively used by older tech nerds?
Honestly wouldn't mind Lemmy being a 30+ monoculture. Let the kids stay on their TikBooks and SnapFaces where they make porn or whatever else kids do these days.

It's required because a lot of the functionality of the PS2 is in the embedded software, the BIOS.
The problem is not the emulator itself, it's the BIOS which is copyrighted. The emulator is not illegal, but bundling the BIOS with it would be.

Well it would be nice to have a corner of the Internet that isn't invaded by teenage desperately attention seeking social media drones.

Refugee Redditors as they make the move.
My biggest problem so far is that reddit.com is entered automatically by muscle memory. I need to rewire my brain, or redirect reddit.com to lemmy.world in the router.

If you bundle cryptographic keys, bios or other copyrighted content then yes obviously it's illegal.
It's not illegal to implement an emulator.

I've lost all hope for young people when most of the "proposed" content on Facebook or similar are either: young people making softcore porn videos, or young people miming to songs.

And people care about that? That's the weirdest elitism I've ever heard

What's your favourite colony sim on PC?

Probably! I've played that a lot to but never reached launching the rocket.

This is awesome. I want to build something similar for the Viggen simulator in DCS World.

I like the idea of DF, but I'm leaning more towards Songs of Syx instead. It's not on sale so I'm in no hurry but it's on my shortlist

Lemmy.world (and some others) were hacked
Thanks for being open about this and quick to fix it!
