  • Wizard With A Gun and El Paso Elsewhere both look great. Also - GHOST TRICK PHANTOM DETECTIVE is one of my favorite games of all time! I had it on the Nintendo DS, but unfortunately lost the cartridge' I played through the entire game start to finish without stopping because I was so immersed in the story.

  • The bottle physics in [HL: Alyx]
  • I own this game but have not played it yet... it might be time.

  • Teaching has been the same in many ways for the past 100 years!

    Teachers stranded by Hwy 4 closure 'couch surfing' to meet district requirements, union says | CBC News
  • Have we learned nothing from COVID? I taught for two years while kids were learning solely from home, and still teach a purely virtual class. Yes, there are some setup steps that need to happen that makes that possible, but I find it crazy that teachers are being forced to couch surf or drive 8 HOURS to get to work.

    Heck, I would probably ask to sleep in my classroom at that point.

  • What are some of your favorite mods and modpacks?
  • Back In the good old days of Minecraft, Tekkit was great, as was Feed the Beast. A good friend and I had a server we would play on in college - he did everything with magic, and I did everything with technology. We had a pretty awesome base with a big wizard tower for him and a solar panel powered tech lab for me.

  • My bubba
  • What a handsome guy!!

  • New iOS Lemmy app: Memmy Updated UI and Dark Theme - Apollo Inspired
  • There never will be! It was the perfect combination of everything, and Christian had the perfect experience to make sure that it functioned perfectly. He even worked for Apple at one point! That poor guy. I hope we continues to work on other projects and releases some new cool stuff in the future.

  • Reddit CEO Steve Huffman on blackout: It's expensive to run a company.
  • It absolutely will not be plain sailing - I think that the protest is an early warning sign. People that stick to Reddit are going to be bombarded with ads, Premium features, and new programs after Reddit goes public.

    I am an Apollo user until the end - I think that after having such a good experience under Christian, I forgot how scummy a big corporation can be. Times are changing - we just saw some similar things with Musk taking over twitter.

  • Reddit CEO Steve Huffman on blackout: It's expensive to run a company.
  • I think this is exactly why. It’s to make sure that Reddit is “shored up” from any profits leaking out, and making sure that NSFW content is locked down so that investors actually invest.

    It sucks because it’s our posts, our comments, our information that makes Reddit what it is. This is simply preparation for advertising and other for-profit opportunities. Greedy.

  • Reddit CEO Steve Huffman on blackout: It's expensive to run a company.
  • I just commented on another similar article! His reasoning for this move contradicts itself! How can he claim that the overwhelming majority of users (97%) use the official Reddit app, but the use of 3rd party apps is destroying their bottom line? That means that that the lost profit from 3% of users are the reason for the API price change?

    And… if there are only 4-5 big 3rd party apps (like Apollo, RIF), why force them out of the market? If only 3% of users use them, are they really that big of a deal? Why are the prices so astronomically high?

    This is Reddit consolidating their empire. I hope that folks are prepared for future roll-outs of new subscriptions and reasons that Reddit users need to pay.

  • [HN] Reddit CEO slams protesters, calls them “landed gentry”
  • His comments and actions contradict each other. He claims to want to give more of a say to the ordinary Reddit user, but at the same time takes away our choice of how to browse the website (like, taking away 3rd party apps and forcing mobile users to use the stock Reddit app).

    You can do whatever you want, as long as you do what u/Spez want you to.

  • Currently responding to this comment using the TestFlight beta! So far, so good! I will say, I really like the dark theme and the swipe controls of Memmy. RIP Apollo…

  • Power tripping
  • Poor student teachers… teacher prep programs produce so much free labor that they’ll never get rid of them. In a way it is a paid internship - You pay your college to find you a internship that doesn’t pay you :(

  • Let's hear your tips: What are some less common autistic accommodations you've made for yourself?
  • For some reason this comment posted like 6 times - I’m trying the “Memmy” app for iPhone out, and it seems like there are some problems

  • Not while meeting new people, but after we are acquainted for a while - I am very honest about being overwhelmed by sensory input and that I don’t understand sarcasm. This second one really surprises people, and they inevitably test out sarcasm with me… but it never works. Life pro tip: be honest and tell people your challenges up front.
