I wouldn’t call it a hobby, just some entertainment to pass the time/hang out with friends.
It was Counter-Strike 1.6. I didn’t leave the house the summer I discovered it as a kid.

Again, who tf uses messenger?
The entire nation of Poland
This new “Flashpoint” gamemode in Overwatch is pretty fun not gonna lie.
Also, at least in the X360 times some games wouldn’t have dedicated servers, instead hosting matches on the console of one of the players.
And you would be paying. To host the server on your own machine.
Poland.
He could’ve easily got it solved but he didn’t have money and the public defender just told him confessing was the best option.
It might be a legend, it’s just a thing that supposedly happened to someone in a community I participate in.
I heard of a guy who went to prison because he bought something from Allegro (Polish Amazon) over TOR. Someone used the same exit node for hacking, so they pinned it on him.
There’s Firefox on iOS, but it’s practically a wrapper around Safari. You get your bookmark synchronization, but everything under the hood runs on WebKit.
PS4 also sold 40M units by it’s third year.
It at least performs better in browser than as a desktop app, for me at least.
Thankfully, my answer isn’t nobody.
I was completely alone until high school. I’ve got Asperger’s so that didn’t help things, but therapy and finally meeting sane people in high school got me to make friends. I’m ending college now and I’m still in touch with them. Got at least three people ready to listen to my rambling.
Now my biggest worry is losing them. I doubt I could rebuild that relationship with anyone else. We’ve been through everything.
Tech bubble is over.
Let’s hope the old web returns.
The smartphone was a disaster. We shouldn’t be connected to the Internet constantly.
Written from my smartphone.
I think the mm
object is the most worrying thing about this, not the fact that it’s a standard WebView.
Meta already had federated with XMPP back in the day, then dropped it when it was convenient.
They are gonna do the same for the fediverse. All they want from us is the starter content so that their service isn’t empty for the first two months. They literally don’t want to do the work that reddit founders had to do - generate content and pretend there are users to a new blank platform. After that the federation features are going to become legacy.
Not cooperating with corpos is a matter of principles.
Google got into the Linux space, into email and into open source software and it seems those survived the experience.
Try to start up your own independent email server instead of going with one of the largest providers. You will never be able to message anyone on Gmail.
I’m gonna shill a little: just use Revolut.
I keep it empty, then when I want to actually pay for the subscription I top it up and retry the payment manually.
For voice, TeamSpeak
For text chat, IRC
For forums, phpBB or any other forum software
Discord replacing the third is the saddest. It completely isn’t fit for purpose. Part of the reason you can’t find anything on Google now is that forums died, and Discord is unsearchable.
Discord just switches it’s business model yearly to clone the one thing it hasn’t killed yet. Started out to kill TS and IRC, then went on to kill the forum, then it tried to kill Steam/GOG but failed, now it’s trying to kill Patreon.
Well, PeerTube works like torrents - which are proven to scale well. Main problem stems from monetization.
Which is sad, because it used to be a much more social platform. I used to run a small channel in 2007 and I’d get people messaging me, or adding me to friends (yes, that was a thing on YouTube).
Just an another HTTP header, flagging if user is an adult. Set it to False if OS reports that the account used has parental controls enabled.
This is just meant to keep children out, not protect state secrets.
