Which version of FF7 are you referring to? And also which version of Link?

Either way, probably depends on who the writers want to win lol.

“Legal” doesn’t immediately mean “moral”. Everything is legal as long as there isn’t a law specifically banning it, and those laws often only get created as a result of someone abusing their legal right to something.

Google collects also way more data than you pointed out, in every avenue possible. Ever solved a captcha? You likely helped Google train their image recognition AI. Got an android smartphone (a brand that previously had committed itself to being open-source and linux based)? Have fun with pre-installed unremovable Google Spyware. You’re forced to create a GMail account to interact with the whole App ecosystem of the market.
Google can remotely (without your consent) download and delete apps on your smartphone, read your personal data (including stuff you have saved on your SD card) and accesses your camera, pictures and GPS-Data regularly.

I just read an article to prepare for writing this comment and feel actually sick now, I wanna jump ship and get an independent OS, screw the AppStore…

This game is probably the reason I never got into TMNT. Super unforgiving lifr system which throws you back at the start of the game, and very wonky hitboxes

It IS kinda crazy. If you try to create “nothingness” (create an enclosed space and suck out all of the air to have as little as possible), the nothingness actually tries to become full of something again, because of pressure difference.

I don’t know, that comparison kinda humanizes a corporation that is very much looking to go public and make itself valuable to shareholders. I don’t like to think of these websites as “friends”.

Yes, reddit’s a tragic shitshow, but there is absolutely no guarantee the same won’t happen on any fediverse instance either. We should always look out to jump ship if we start to notice like a website is sacrificing user wishes for personal gain.

“Hey, we already have 30 million users in just 3 days! Look everyone how relevant we are!!”

Sure buddy.

Personally, I’m not really big on threads.
kbin felt more like an anonymous social media tool, like reddit. I can act the way I do because I know it’s anonymous and not attached to my real name or face.
If we’re starting to federate with a platform that mainly acts like Instagram (where many people try to represent themselves to their friends & family), then kbin will lose that aspect in my opinion. I prefer online personas rather than “real” people on the platform.

Also, I don’t trust facebook/meta.

I think the problem is more being stuck in a dark small and cramped space with 4 other people for 96 hours, where there is no on-board toilet and you just don’t know if help will arrive in time or not.

Compared to that, I think an instant death due to implosion sounds preferrable.
