It should be regulated.

It’s really wild that they straight up nuked CS:GO for this and it both performs worse on higher end machines (reports of stuttering when ragdolls activate or shaders load in are rampant) AND it’s missing the casual war games modes like Arms Race.

It’s definitely both. A lot of folks don’t understand that insects and shellfish are similar, and I’ve yet to see “product may contain insect meal / aggravate shellfish allergies” on things that have crickets or are processed in facilities that handle insect meal. So, the FDA likely needs to catch up. But, it’s also a cheap filler protein that’s easily grown, and companies are cheap bastards, so it’s going to slowly find its way in and push out more expensive protein options.

I do sincerely worry about insects being added as filler materials as time goes on. I have a shellfish allergy, and the same allergens that exist in the shells of shellfish also exist in most insects.

You can literally just Google “phone in bed fire” and find article after article after article about it.

I still cannot believe there is a game for kids that recommends they set up a fire hazard in their beds.

A ton of the shit comes straight from the board of directors, who will no longer have a board because MS is absorbing and buying out all shareholders.

We know Bobby is leaving for a fact as well, as he has a buyout clause in his contract.

Short term, this is excision of a cancer from the industry. Long term this kind of consolidation is bad for competition. I’ll be happy when MS gets inevitably trust busted.

Microsoft and Sega have a long partnership with gaming going back to the original XBox days where they got a ton of exclusives originally meant for the Dreamcast after it died. This news is the least surprising to me. Hell, theirbl OG controller is literally the DC controller with an added stick and no VMU support.

Came here to post this, Mint just got purchased by T-Mobile.

It’s not the rules on those servers, but the rules on the server you belong to, i.e lemmy.world. Looking at their main site, their rule 3 is as follows:

Oh they’re the same one who got the top mod removed from r/adviceanimals. Literally the type of mod that has the userbase riled up against the mods by their actions. Shame they run so many LGBTQIA+ communities, I wouldn’t trust them to maintain a safe space.

Meanwhile, Cedar is badmouthing you in a stickied post on the subreddit. I’m sorry you’re dealing with this.

Everyone who cares about their instance and the fediverse as a whole needs to defederate and block their instances as soon as they pop up.

The latter exactly. Because Spez and Reddit as a whole have refused to take action on them for literal years, they built up a critical mass, and were able to both plan a migration and do so successfully.

Oh interesting, it’s not showing as a link for me. I’ve edited. Thanks for the heads up!

Because it, as a massive problem instance for the alt-right to congregate, was allowed to build up and do whatever it wanted unfettered, once they did action it it was far too late. They immediately moved offsite to thedonald.win (which was r/thedonald 1:1), and continued their actions there. It allowed them to conglomerate, coordinate, and show each other that there was enough of them to try and pull off heinous shit.

Jan 6th literally was planned and executed on thedonald, which only got to the critical mass it did because reddit refused to handle it.

It’s possible your space isn’t federated with those communities yet? You might need to start the link with searching for them using the [email protected] command to force your instance to download their pages first.

The study I posted in my initial comment notes how easy it is to reach near lethal levels for a healthy adult (second article, as well as myself, notes that most folks aren’t healthy) with the current trend of supplements, powders, and additives in other foods. Other studies have noted that high/toxic levels of caffeine can and does lead to varying types of death, including suicide, but also major cardiovascular issues.

We don’t take it seriously enough, but we’ve always done this. Used to put cocaine in cola too. Regulations just haven’t caught up with it yet.

400mg is the upper limit of what a healthy adult should consume in a 4hr period. I can easily crush a Trenta Pink Drink from Starbucks in like, 25mins if I’m thirsty. But not all adults are healthy, in fact, most aren’t. If you read my linked article, those drinks alone can cause caffeine toxicity in really short order. Especially for people using Panera to telework or study in a place with decent food, wifi, and free refills who just keep going back for more, unknowing of the danger they’re putting themselves in.

It’s insidious too, because while stimmed up on caffeine, they’ll find they ‘work better’ when they’re in a Panera, thus creating the wholly intentional feedback loop of wanting to work/study there more often.
