In your android settings, go to network & internet > advanced > private DNS and paste the link dns.adguard-dns.com into the box. All ads will assume you have no Internet connection. Doesn’t appear to work on YouTube, but covers anything from the Google Play store banners/videos/etc.

Wait, THAT was the issue? (I thought it was another program that got sold, and the new owner bundled it with malware or something.) Is there something wrong with MuseGroup? I’ve been using MuseScore for ages.

Actually, you’re right. You said I had ASPD, not ASD. Sorry about that.

Hey, Abigail here. I just want people to know the reason this person got banned is likely because of a deleted comment not included in that thread. OP called me autistic mentally unwell for not liking politics. THAT kind of behavior is not acceptable on lemmy.blahaj.zone, so I reported the comment and let Ada handle it. Ada tried in good faith to reason with OP but it was clear they just wanted to fight. So yeah, they got banned. Ada’s a fantastic lady who’s been great at keeping the trolls at bay.

Edit: and the bit about me misgendering them is also wrong. Gender didn’t come into play until after I had left the conversation. English default on the internet is male for strangers.

That trailer was adorable 🥰 I love couch co op games, and trine is at the top of the list! Glad to see they’re making a new one.

Slightly unrelated, but I was just talking with a friend about how we’re going to have similar issues with young artists trying to copy ai. As is, many young artists will turn to cartoons instead of real life when starting out. Their work is a bastardization of a bastardization, with serious flaws in anatomy, gravity, light, and depth. They go on to call those mistakes their “style” and point to other artists making those same mistakes to normalize them. Since “style” isn’t something they think they need to improve on, they may become good artists overall while having severe, glaring holes in their skillet that any professional can see. You can sometimes even tell when someone started out because “90s anime” or “10s cartoon network” made specific stylistic choices that changed over time.

So I think ai is going to cause similar problems. Newbies will copy what looks pretty to the untrained eye and learn an ai based style. Then when they become more popular they’ll be fed into ai as reference material and perpetuate the problem. Even worse is actual professionals may turn to ai instead of real life references or a desk mannequin. Then their skills may degrade because they rely too much on improper tools. (I’ve already seen this becoming an issue with photoshopped reference photos.)

Anyways, that’s my $0.02

300? The tracking site is still showing 5k.

Absolutely! A lot of people seem to think a protest is shooting yourself in the foot and complaining about it. No, a protest is causing a ruckus so that everyone - protestors or not - get frustrated with the target of the protest. The point is to screw up search results on Google. The point is to make the “front page of the internet” an empty shell.

I went on reddit briefly to see if anything I subscribe to is polling to extend their blackout. r/DCcomics had a poll filled to the brim with “stay open, I’m slightly inconvenienced!” comments. These guys have clearly never been a part of or needed to protest for their basic rights before.

• I’d recommend 9 parchments if you just want to play together. My roommate’s got a play list similar to yours and he’s obsessed with it right now.
• I’m not one for multiplayer, but if you ever do two player my favorite is wizard of legend. I usually play solo. If you play with friends it’s fun though since you can design complimenting loadouts and you get different dungeons.
• Trine is a puzzle platformer that’s fun but can be frustrating if you’ve got a “smash everything” friend with you. It’s 3 player IIRC.
