The super-rich are getting away with murder
  • You're making the mistake of thinking "the rich" we're talking about here pay income tax at all. If you pay income tax, no matter which bracket, you're not rich. You're part of the working class.

  • Any recommendations for audio dramas?
  • As someone already mentioned, BBC Radio 4 have some brilliant dramas. One of my favourites is "Tracks" by Matthew Broughton. Fully dramatised with cast/sound design/score its a thriller with a medical edge. lots of twists and turns There are 5 seasons too.

  • Privacy rule
  • I think a lot of people have an apathetic outlook towards privacy because they're cynical that anything they can do will have the desired effect. The belief that they can't possibly outsmart these data hungry corporations without putting in what they consider to be hard work is enough to sacrifice it.

  • Do you prefer x264 or 265 HEVC?
  • A lot of comments suggesting AV1 has better compatibility than h265. In my experience the opposite is true. H265 is supported by all of my devices including Plex on my smart TV without transcoding, whereas AV1 makes everything have a fit trying to play it. Am I doing something wrong?

  • Which subreddits would you most like to see on Lemmy?
  • I'm a bit overwhelmed by the response this has gotten. This thread could serve as a great source of inspiration for people who want to create subs (or is instances the right phrase now?) around topics they're passionate about. Forgive me the cliche but, be the change you want to see! If it doesn't exist, make it.

  • Which subreddits would you most like to see on Lemmy?

    I'm genuinely so excited to see some of the more focussed communities blossom on this platform as they have on Reddit over the years. Which are your favourites and which do you think could succeed here?

    What are you playing this week?
  • Difficult to say what it'd be like as a newcomer as I'm quite familiar with the world and characters.

    The gameplay is slick as ever and I'd argue more fun than the first, but there's not much of a tutorial at the beginning - a fair amount of assumed knowledge is implied.

    I'd say for the best experience, you should still play the first one as there's plenty of throwback in the second installment's story. They're very much married in that respect.

    If you're curious, the first one must be quite cheap these days and well worth it in my opinion.

  • What are you playing this week?
  • Halfway through Dishonored 2 ATM and loving it - feels a bit slicker and more polished than the original which I also adored. The game had a lot of issues with motion sickness in the past which prevented me from experiencing it.
