And maybe if enough people complain NVIDIA will start behaving less like a bag of dicks?

Wishful thinking, I know, but one can hope.

Isn't habitat loss at least in part due to climate change as well?

The NVIDIA thing has been answered elsewhere in the thread, so I'll answer the other one: ... It depends, but usually there's a minor performance hit. Other times it works just as well, and there are some edge cases where it actually works better.

There's also the issue of compatibility: in general, if anti-cheat software is involved, expect to have problems. This website is a database for Steam games with reports from users about what works, what doesn't work, and what can be done to fix or at least mitigate what doesn't work. You can sync your Steam library to it to see how well the games you have are supported at a glance.

Which makes the parallel fit even better since in both cases the characters of the opposite gender show up in the lore rather than the actual gameplay.

World of Tanks. Came for the fun FPS/TPS hybrid gameplay, left for Wargaming's unforgivably greedy and short-sighted monetization practices. But not before siphoning away a lot more of my time than they deserved before I caught on.

For me personally, downtime tends to be a moment where I seek no conversation with anyone. Just me, whatever my train of thoughts happen to be derailing into, and sometimes some music and/or some mindless activity like scrolling social media, as I was doing until this thread caught my attention.

Assuming this isn't a recent development or happening so often actual interaction is grinding to a halt, this is probably nothing to be worried about.

Catbox claims to keep files forever. I find this claim dubious, what's the catch?

iodéOS pour ma part, qui est un fork de LineageOS, donc même combat.

No, and I will go one step further by blocking the Threads domain assuming kbin itself doesn't choose to defederate from it.

Occasionally, they're the ones with a knife taped on.

Also, the communities that would be providing the interesting stuff in the first place are still in the process of getting settled in.

This might just be me, but arbitrary CAPSLOCK on words and Title Case on threads that aren't a link to a news article are clickbait patterns that I'd prefer to not see on kbin.

As for the object of the thread itself... I am thoroughly unsurprised. I have never seen IranianGenius involved in any positive manner with /r/tumblr whereas TayTay was singlehandedly responsible for making /r/tumblr into slightly less of a garbage heap. Removing the one mod that was actually improving things is perfectly in line with Reddit's recent behavior.
