And it is amazing! Especially further north in like -20°C

It could be a good product. I neither hate it nor like it.

I personally know someone in advertisement and viral marketing is more widespread than I think people realize. That is why I would like people to be sceptical about stuff that gets recommended with this kind of frequency (and IMHO with text in a tone that I’ve read in actual viral marketing campaigns) especially if the product is commercial.

This method of advertising is used because it works and as you can see by the backlash here merely suggesting that it could be an ad and asking people to be sceptical/cautious is taken as breaking a social taboo.

My intention is not to personally attack you just to get that out of the way. That is why I prefaced my statement with the tinfoil hat part.

I don’t know if the company can afford that. I did not look into it enough but I know that viral marketing is not a very expensive marketing strategy and I hate it.

I can speak only on my experience here on Lemmy where I hear it mentioned with a rather high frequency and in ways that suggest to me that it could be an advert.

I will not apologize for being sceptical when it comes to commercial product recommendations and I suggest everybody do the same as viral marketing is extremely widespread in the modern net.

Ok I need to put my tinfoil hat on for a moment but I think there is some viral marketing going on for it on Lemmy. The frequency I see it recommended or mentioned and the unorganic way it is brought up gives me advert vibes.

Does that mean proton will not work?

Yes this all presupposes that this bias is a bad thing. Not saying that it isn’t mind you

Removed by mod

Yes and? Is the premise that capital only chooses bad things to research?

Minecraft and dwarf fortress. I may pick up factorios extension if and when I have time

It… It is? I am not a native speaker but I would’ve for sure thought it was a male name…

I once got a temporary ban on another platform for arguing/suggesting that dude has become genderless.

I know multiple woman that use “dude” that way, but some people are somewhat understandably sensitive on the topic of gender.

I don’t know about fake analysis but I imagine it gets quite complex

If that were true almost every non trivial proof would be way way wayyyy too long.

Yea it’s definitely a dialect thing but a rather common one. I don’t know where it is spoken most tho…

1080’ties really were legendary cards. Back then I only had a 1060ti as my prior card broke unexpectedly and that was all the money I could spare.

This reminds me of an old thread on a random forum. Just when Sims 2 was released they were speculating what Sims 3 would look like.

Someone suggested that the next game will surely be in the source engine!

While your point is more realistic than that I still don’t think valve could pull this off in reasonable time. Translation for games is extremely hard to do right. I think if at all there will be another generation of decks before we see something like this.

Yes!

Total mutual destruction is the only way™

That… That is a price I am willing to accept.

Iirc in Germany the game was censored in a way that you lose the game if you actually shot someone.

I was curious not knowing that evince is getting retired and looked into this It seems there was a problem even for established contributors which is why it was eventually forked. This Blogpost goes into detail.

It seems the main maintainer had very little time for the project. I don’t know if that was the case 4 years ago but if it was it would explain some things.
