Dead satellites are filling space with trash. That could affect Earth’s magnetic field | Sierra Solter
  • that will make some people immensely rich

    Not sure what this means. Most satelites make everyone a little bit richer (weather, GPS, communication satelites).

    it’s up to the cooperation of countries to research, mitigate, and control it

    I would argue that companies SpaceX have a lot to lose from space debris. If space becomes inaccessible, they can't do any business. They do a lot to mitigate space debris (especially with Starlink), and this is rational because too much space debris threatens their mission.

  • Helldivers 2’s Politics Appear To Be Flying Over The Heads Of Some
  • There is currently a very funny, kind of sad dust-up over Helldivers 2, in which self-proclaimed “anti-woke” gamers have previously heralded it as a rare game where they believe “politics” does not play a factor

    The game does of course have a political message, but I think there is a slightly different take that could have merit. The "political" part of the game is to make fun of the interventionist foreign policy of the US. This was a major culture war issue from the 80s to the 2000s, but since the 2010s, the culture wars have shifted towards identity politics. The 'self-proclaimed “anti-woke” gamers' are right in pointing out that Helldivers avoids these topics.

  • For some, Helldivers 2’s anti-cheat software limits the ability to play at all
  • Does this game need client-side anticheat at all? It's not PvP, so if you're cheating, you just ruin the experience for yourself and maybe your teammates. But as far as I know, there are no rankings and not really any competition.

  • Why I refuse to upgrade - 8 minutes video explaining why it's not that interesting to upgrade phones nowadays
  • That's kind of the point. There was a time in the 2010s when each new device could do something that they couldn't previously do. But it seems like the market has figured out what people want from their phones and that's what they are getting now.

  • Feature Request: Go to a community using the search bar

    At the moment, it's difficult to go to a community based on its link. For example, if I paste https://programming.dev/c/game_design into the search box, it shows some search results that mention that community, but no way to actually get there. I think the link to the community should appear prominently in the search results, or, even better, if you search for a community link, it should directly take you to that community. In my example, it would take me to https://a.lemmy.world/programming.dev/c/game_design

    Feature request: Click logo/title to refresh

    I'd like to click the server logo or name in the top left to refresh the page. Not sure if it already does that, but it would be good to have some visual feedback so that it's obvious when it started loading and when it finished. Thank you!
