kep@lemmy.worldOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•[OC] I had issues "multiboxing" in EVE Online on Linux, but figured out a super easy way to make it work (even with my room-temperature IQ)1·7 months agoYeah, it’s still popping.
kep@lemmy.worldOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•[OC] I had issues "multiboxing" in EVE Online on Linux, but figured out a super easy way to make it work (even with my room-temperature IQ)3·7 months agoHonestly, I totally get that. But for what it’s worth, the game is more than just maximizing efficiencies like this. This is just a crazy case for me.
kep@lemmy.worldOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•[OC] I had issues "multiboxing" in EVE Online on Linux, but figured out a super easy way to make it work (even with my room-temperature IQ)21·7 months agoMultiboxing is not botting. Conflating the two implies ignorance.
kep@lemmy.worldOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•[OC] I had issues "multiboxing" in EVE Online on Linux, but figured out a super easy way to make it work (even with my room-temperature IQ)17·7 months agoFor context, “multiboxing” is running multiple clients at once, and usually stacking them on a single monitor and rapidly flicking through them with a program like EVE-O Preview to activate commands with the mouse in short order. It is allowed in EVE, it is not against the TOS. Some people multibox with tiled windows, or one per monitor, though, because they prefer it for various reasons.
There’s a grain of truth in here, but not quite. One in every four or so (not quite, but we can roll with it regardless) identified species of animal is a beetle. Not one in every four animals, by population nor overall species.
The reasons for this is are many, but may include because beetles are big, easy to catch, agriculturally-significant, and are particularly easy to pin and study, dramatically boosting the count of beetle species we work with on an academic level (lending to higher identification rates). There are also just a shitload of beetle species, naturally.
Scientists estimate something closer to ~10 million species of animals, which would still make beetles a huge percentage of the species, but a far cry from 25%. If you looked at the total number (estimated) of individual animals, beetles are pretty insignificant.

kep@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do bad actors' sites/servers stay afloat when someone has to handle the hosting?14·2 years agoThose schemes are more fly by night and don’t last long.
Websites that sell illegal products are almost always based in a place where the product isn’t illegal or enforced.
I’ve actually noticed this too.
Upon asking what the deal is, I’m often met with an “I like when creators get paid” which is righteous but misguided, or “I don’t care about the ads”, which is baffling.

I genuinely do not understand the appeal. You’ve got a whiny little shit making the worst jokes possible and basically wasting money fucking up hardware. Most of the actual “work” the group does, like testing things, is throwaway meant for views.
This video should be good. Will edit this comment if anything stands out.
kep@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•higher wages for the servers... by the customers. FnbsEnglish11·2 years agoYour comment basically assumes that everyone lives in poverty.
Which, granted, isn’t that far off from the truth, but the reality is that it takes an extremely poor person to think like you - to the extent that someone dropping $25 bucks on mac and cheese for a kid probably doesn’t share your sentiments.
kep@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that YouTube shadow bans people (for a time) + implications to creators2·2 years agoIf your post is hidden within seconds, it’s automod getting it most likely. Being hid from a channel by the creator means your comment just never shows up, even in their notification feed.

kep@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that YouTube shadow bans people (for a time) + implications to creators106·2 years agoWhat you’re talking about has absolutely nothing to do with any of the points I’ve made.
Please stop typing.
kep@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that YouTube shadow bans people (for a time) + implications to creators105·2 years agoThat has absolutely nothing to do with what I’ve just described.
Again, this isn’t YouTube removing his comments. His comments are not being deleted. OP was simply “hid from channel” by the creator. I don’t know how else I can explain this, short of recording a video of my YouTube channel as I shadowban a commenter.
YouTube does delete comments. But this isn’t that. When YT deletes your comments you can no longer see it in even on your account.
kep@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that YouTube shadow bans people (for a time) + implications to creators435·2 years agoThis was a hard post to read.
You’re not shadowbanned from YouTube. The creator you’re commenting on has simply “hid” you from their channel. Which ironically is a shadowban, just on a creator level.
The level of panic and outrage you’ve displayed here despite not having a clue as to how the mechanic you’re discussing works is remarkable.
kep@lemmy.worldto Lemmy.World Announcements@lemmy.world•As requested: https://old.lemmy.world (MLMYM)361·2 years agoMost excellent.
Are we under any impression that this will have long-term support? Or just a novelty to enjoy while it’s here?

They were given trivial tasks to perform to justify the title. It was in bad faith and should have rung alarm bells. But I anticipate for the luxury thrill-seeker, they may be accustomed to fancy titles for their trips, and didn’t even really think about it.
Quiche in a pan. Nothing to see here.
