I can’t stand it. I can’t sleep well with the sun up. My kids don’t sleep well with the sun up. Who to I have to sacrifice to the sun to get darkness between at least 10pm and 6am? (Though preferably 9pm and 6:30, if the sun is up for negotiations.)

evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Pirate Software "Stop Killing Games" DramaEnglish13·13 days agoSeems like they could just release the server software for the online only games. I’m pretty sure people are reverse engineering it anyway.
evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•Fixing broken Oblivion Remastered difficulty without mods?English12·1 month ago0.286x damage done, 3.5x damage taken. Doesn’t scale well at all. It would be nice if it were more granular and they had separate sliders for damage done and damage taken.
evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Student could face ‘decades behind bars’ for alleged Tesla arson attack in MissouriEnglish13·3 months agoHer punishment should be at least as bad as the sentences rioters served for breaking into the U.S. capitol. Or maybe that should be the cap since her actions didn’t result in death and weren’t intended as an attempt at insurrection (unless someone that owns Tesla is now considered the head of government).
evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•British soldiers tune radio waves to fry drone swarmsEnglish9·3 months agoInvisible weapons are all the rage these days.
evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•‘No tip for illegal’: Server left with racist note at LAX Planet HollywoodEnglish128·3 months agoYes but US conservatives don’t seem to know it.
evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Meta is trying to ‘offload’ kids safety onto app stores with new bills, Google says.English14·4 months agoHonestly, I don’t want age signals sent at all. As long as I (the parent) can use parental controls to limit app access, that’s all that matters. Give users the option to deny ad personalization and that protects children from ad personalization. Companies don’t need to know anyone’s age. Meta is pushing for more data, but this feels like an underhanded way to take a middle road that gives Google more data (but not as much as Meta wants). We should take the high road and tell them both to butt out.
evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Pinterest will train AI models on user data and content, regardless of when it was posted.English4·4 months agoThe site is also set up so users get recommended images to pin to their own boards. What’s not clear is that when that happens, Pinterest seems to assume some sort of shared ownership. So if the original image is removed, anyone that pinned it is suddenly counted as the new owner.
I had pinned images to one of my boards that I used to keep a board of art that I liked, thinking it was like bookmarking. Then I started getting emails saying I had violated copyright because Pinterest couldn’t tell the difference between me pinning something it recommended that I pin and me uploading an image.
I went into my boards and saw that some of the art I had pinned (I uploaded nothing) had changed to look as though I was the original uploader and/or owner.
I deleted everything and quit the site after that.
evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•DHS has begun performing polygraph tests on employees to find leakersEnglish3·4 months agoThey’re just trying to scare people enough into having a reaction or admitting fault. Someone could also fail because they are afraid they will fail or they’re afraid they’re a suspect. If the actual leaker
thinks they’re doing the right thing andthat the poly can’t catch them, they probably won’t even have a reaction.
evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•Gaming has a polarization problemEnglish28·4 months ago93% vs 77% doesn’t strike me as polarized. 16% difference?
77% doesn’t even seem that bad if it’s a style of game I like. From about 2001 I used to see sci fi movies that looked interesting as long as they had at least a 25% Rotten Tomatoes score because my tastes were different.
Is there something I’m missing? I haven’t played either game and I haven’t looked at reviews. Won’t buy KCD (no character creation) and probably will eventually buy Avowed.

evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Apple Caved and pulled end-to-end encrypted backups in the ukEnglish2·5 months agoI don’t think it’s just the backups. Apple’s site says it’s things “such as” wallet, notes, photos, documents, bookmarks, reminders, voice memos, shortcuts, messages backup, and device backup. The “such as” seems to imply there’s more.

evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•DOGE staffers enter NOAA headquarters and incite reports of cuts and threatsEnglish27·5 months agoI think there have been businesses trying to get it shut down for years because they want to sell the data rather than giving it out for free. I forget which ones, but I’d swear I read about this years ago.
Just did a quick search with no luck, but apparently it’s part of Project 2025 to commercialize it or get rid of it.
evilcultist@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy call remote work a 'Covid-era privilege.' Economists say it's here to stayEnglish12·6 months agoIt’s also incredibly fucked up that they’re worried about real estate prices falling in an economy where so many are having a problem paying rent or owning a house.

I know there’s been a campaign for years about seasonal depression, but lack of sleep causes depression too and if it’s only dark for 5.5 hours I’m probably getting about that much sleep and I’m probably waking a few times during it to sigh and turn over. Unless there’s AC and the light is 100% blacked out (not a speck peeking over or around the curtain).
