Anyone using bots that are openly bots would be limiting their shit to robots.txt. Anyone who is out trawling the whole website is probably obfuscating what they're doing by spoofing new user agents.

We had a Eufy baby monitor that was so bad (replaced three times when trying to update firmware, the fourth time it died it was due to a drop) that it has actually made me think less of Anker as a company. If they stick to that being their low quality bargain brand, maybe I'll consider Anker again, but for now I'm out.

Yeah, it seems like they finally invested in firmware and software programmers. WAY fewer issues than back in the day, still amazing hardware quality.

DOTA popularized and also invented the battle pass mechanic.

You're both sadist and poetic boor.

Yeah I didn't realize votes were essentially public already. This will 100% change my voting patterns. The problem is, I'm an idealist who still follows old school reddit voting guidelines of "this adds to the conversation" or not..so I upvote stuff I don't agree with as long as it is well thought out, well said, or at least civil and trying to have a good conversation. When I remember to, I also tend to downvote vitriolic nonsense or pithy nothing comments even if I agree with the values, because I don't think it helps anyone to have annoying angry echo chambers. That's like...the entire Internet right now, and Lemmy is already bad enough with that. It doesn't need to get worse by making sure everyone is voting in lockstep lest they get brigaded (which there are no inherent protections against).

You forgot a likely $1000 a month in after tax student loan payments.

It pops up on steam and says you've been invited to a game test.

Sent. Should come through in a couple hours I guess. They're pretty slow.

Sent. When you accept will send.

Yeah no prob. I think most people just...don't read their owners manuals. Not just sedan owners either. You see it with big trucks too where people haul stuff that's WAY too heavy for their brakes, or load trailers with the weight all towards the back (asking for fishtailing). Sometimes I think it's a miracle any of us survive day to day.

If those are highway legal I might be very interested once I sell my project car. Thanks!

 

Like many people, I am a refuge from Reddit as well. I had a nice multireddit set up on RIF Is Fun that I'd love to duplicate here. Think 3d printing and microcontrollers, woodworking, DIY, and physical creations of all kinds. I'd be thrilled to see knife-making posts right next to an automated pet feeder next to hand-crafted furniture.
