Insufferable FOSS/Linux nerds are ruining Lemmy.
Ya, I think Microsoft knows Minecraft is too big to fail. If adding the chat monitoring/reporting, even on PRIVATELY HOSTED SERVERS didn’t cause them to fail, nothing they do will. Their player base heavily consists of children, which don’t really care.
The best hope we have is for a new game to come out and genuinely give Minecraft a run for it’s money. The only potential we have right now is Hytale.
People have been asking for the world to feel more full for over a decade. We don’t care that Mo Creatures are “useless”, they add charm and a danger to the world.
Right now there’s nothing in the water that hurts you, unless you find yourself near a drown area. Meanwhile mo Creatures added sharks that actually added a reason to watch out, and a reason for the water to be dangerous. In real life the ocean is extremely dangerous, yet in Minecraft it’s literally the safest place.
I’m not asking them to add 500 plants, but adding 2 is a slap in the face. An intern could whip up at least 10 new plants in an hour.
Why add something and promise how it’s so cool because it’s going to find ancient flowers, just to add TWO. Literally useless. Literally a waste of time going through all it to get two fucking flowers. You’re better off just going to the meadow and grabbing flowers to decorate with.
They over promise and under deliver EVERYTHING.
It’s because Mojang gives extremely vague descriptions and then forces you to vote based on that.
Like this year it’s
A penguin - makes your boat faster. Okay. How much faster? 2%? 200%?
An armadillo - wolf armour. Okay. How much protection does it add? Will your wolf gain the ability to take one more hit? Or will it double the HP?
A crab - extends reach. Okay. How many blocks? A singular block? Is it only for placing, or also breaking?
Mojang: great questions! We will announce it all after you vote! Good luck, idiots!
I’ve started playing Vintage Story and you really realize how empty Minecraft is.
Minecraft is still extremely polished, even with the bugs, and for some reason literally no other game can touch how smooth Minecraft feels to play, but it’s just so empty.
It’s wild they never added mobs like the Mo Creatures mod did like a decade ago.
They then have mob votes, but then take months and months to implement 1 single mob, and then half ass it anyway. Every single mob they’ve added via mob vote feels extremely half baked. Like the sniffer having TWO plants? TWO???
And then when you beat Minecraft the credits are over an hour long. How can you have so many developers but somehow develop slower than when it was just Notch himself?
I had my screen repaired under warranty by them. They factory reset to keep your data safe.
They actually make you do it, before they even touch it. They allow you to do it in store, and will guide you on how to back things up, and use their WiFi to do it.
Definitely can be annoying, but Lemmy is all about privacy, and there’s no way for a company to steal your data with their fancy diagnostic tools if the phone is factory reset.
Why would you need expandable storage? Everything should be backed up via the cloud. Either a paid cloud, or your own (or both).
People walking around with a ton of data on their phone is crazy. It can be dropped, broken, stolen, etc at any time.
If my phone broke or was stolen I’d lose nothing. Everything is backed up immediately to my unraid server.
Clearly I’m missing something, because it’s not been updated since 2021. Nearly 3 years ago.
Unless you’re talking about the not actually released, has to be manually installed, labeled “pre-release” version from GitHub? Which hardly counts.

Mine was the HTC Dream. Had some issues with the radio, so it would just lose signal (without telling you) for hours.
I didn’t know anything about Android, but I heard you could flash a new radio. I followed some random guide, bricked the phone, and gave up on Android until the Nexus 4.
Well by “parts of your phone”, I mean calling/texting, and seeing notifications. The things I can’t really do without my phone. Most other things I can do via a web browser.
If you have certain Microsoft Duo, Samsung, and HONOR phones, you can access apps, but then again that’s a moot point since this is about using your phone as a webcam in Android 14, which is currently only a Pixel thing.
I haven’t tried Phone Link since it launched, so I am unsure how good it is, but I am going to be optimistic lol.
Next year a vast amount of laptops will now sell without a webcam. Laptop manufacturers are creaming their pants at the thought of saving themselves money and profiting more.
I’m so glad this feature is coming. My only concern is that I use my phone while I’m using my webcam.
I suppose that’s why things like Phone Link on Windows is a thing. You can continue to use parts of your phone while it’s being used as a webcam.
Source on that?
But I mean, if you prefer anything Brave does, sure.

Or, you can buy products. If you don’t like what they do, just don’t buy them.
I am not even defending Denuvo. I will not be buying this game. Pirating it also supports them, because if you talk about the game, show your friends, stream it, upload screenshots/videos, etc, you’re potentially getting others, who refuse to pirate, to buy the game.
If you don’t like what the company is doing, don’t play it.
Lemmy users are so fucking annoying. All of the shitty people from Reddit moved here.
