Yeah, between the image compression and resolution, a lot of things that should be ‘gaps’ in the letters are closing up. Like, the ‘s’ in ‘psuedorandom’ or ‘set’ looks like a squished-up ‘g’.
I can read individual words as I’m looking at them, but I’ve lost the ability to scan the line and parse words in my peripheral vision.
I’ve had an impressively easy time finding particular messages as long as I had a decent idea of what servers it might have been in and at least one of the following:
Which has been way better than most other things I’ve bothered to search through like Reddit, Beehaw, or Mastodon (especially when it was limited entirely to hashtags). Lord help me if I want to find a particular post or comment on TikTok or Youtube.
Yeah no shit those metrics will skew towards Gen Z being more victimized if you’re lumping cyberbullying into the mix!
They’re high in each of those categories individually, not (just) if you add the categories together and compare the totals. Millennials are slightly higher in Romance scams and identify theft though.
BUT these numbers are also self-disclosed. I’m not sure how you’d correct for this in a survey, but I could easily believe that these two generations are simply more likely to realize they’ve been victimized, and have a higher exposure to the internet (and thus to scams).
I’d be more interested in something like a sit-down test, to be honest. It’d be easier to account for time spent online and self-awareness of victimization, and more likely to isolate “internet street smarts”, as far as I can tell.
I always sort of read those jokes as illustrative as GLaDOS being a bad person fielding weak material more than like, an earnest expression of the game writer’s values. Like, the game itself doesn’t present the remarks themselves as funny so much as GLaDOS being rude, snippy, and actively incorrect given that Chell is mega-fit.
I got put into Youtube Premium when Google Play Music merged, so I think of it as equivalent to Spotify premium, but also: you can also upload your own music library, you get ads removed on Youtube videos, and offline play for both music and videos.
It’s decently worth it if you reference Spotify Premium’s cost (and also I’ve been at 9.99USD/mo this whole time and not been hit with any price increases at all for some reason?)
Niantic seems to have trouble telling if a franchise is a good fit for the tech they have and the gameplay it enables. Marvel, Transformers, HP, and Basketball don’t lend themselves well to the grindy collection and exploration mechanics.
We’ll see how well Monster Hunter holds up, gameplay wise. It at least has a repeatable thing that sorta makes sense thematically (like fighting several Rathalos to gather parts) as opposed to having 5 clones of LeBron James or getting… stickers of stuff that you might recognize.
Click through to the website! It’s not a lemmy-embedded poll. I was confused at first, too.
