    When I was setting up my new computer late last year, OneDrive wanted to sync everything in my user folders to OneDrive. No idea why. I knew it’d never fit everything anyway. To get it to stop, I had to create a brand new user account without a Microsoft account attached, move everything over to the new account, and delete the old account.

    Now, I only have OneDrive sync my college stuff (homework, projects, notes, PowerPoints, etc.). Nothing else syncs to OneDrive. I backup my PC using a program called Backblaze instead.

    It is their job, but, sometimes (I’m speaking in general terms, not specifically about Nintendo), it’s better to pretend it doesn’t exist, especially because of the Streisand Effect. But, if someone from outside tells them something exists, they might be legally obligated to take action in order to maintain certain legal protections on their properties in the future.

    From what I understand this happened to Yuzu recently (and that’s probably what this post is referring to), where, supposedly, some angry person found a bunch of Nintendo email addresses and emailed them all about Yuzu.

    I’ve also seen it happen at least one other time, too. Cartoon Network used to have an old MMO called FusionFall (not FusionFall Heroes). It was shutdown several years ago, but a community of devs decided to remake the game, and they were even working on upgrading the graphics. They were making some really significant progress on it. Some guy apparently got banned from it, though. (It was in a public beta.) And they emailed Cartoon Network about it. Cartoon Network sent a Cease & Desist, and it disappeared immediately.

    I once had several dreams within a dream, like they were layered on top of each other, Inception style. It was quite honestly the worst nightmare I’ve ever had. Then I woke up, and my parents hadn’t even gone to bed yet. I was awake for most of the night after that.

    Well, the English dubs of Parts 1 and 2 already use accents, so what they did isn’t too far off from what we got. (Though, as someone who doesn’t live in Europe, I have no idea how accurate the accents are. I imagine, like usual, they weren’t very accurate.)




  • Still, if people don’t interact with Threads content, that effectively keeps them separate.

    Also, come to think of it, what’s keeping companies from “vacuuming” everyone’s data without actually having a public instance that has users interacting with posts on other instances? Example: Instance A exists. What’s stopping a company that runs Instance B, which doesn’t have any active users on it, from taking all the available data from Instance A? Genuine question, by the way. I haven’t exactly kept up with the technical workings of Lemmy very well.

    Problem: I barely check my phone when I’m home. If I’m home, I’m usually on my laptop or watching my TV.

    Fortunately, my fridge doesn’t have this problem. Instead, it beeps very loudly whenever the door is open for too long.
