She/Her - I think the pfp is from Super Alloy Ranger
Do fact-check me on stuff
“I prefer a distribution which is supported by game publishers.” feels like it sets bad expectations considering it’s just “do you want a stable Debian/Ubuntu distro?” and ‘game publishers’ might be a little out of date with their wording/justification
They’re not really backing their claim up though in regards to “related to admins” and “admins are deleting other people’s warnings”.
And as far as I know the torrent has been pulled even.
Could be very “useful” for VR hardware I think (for better or for worse)
As the article says, no doubt a snails-pace journey as W11 still needs to expire in 10 years at the very least
Sorry, (now edited) I had stressed it from the sub-title a bit as well
What do you mean doing monotonous tasks for a week so you can get 2 bucks isn’t engaging?!
Twitter has shown that there is an audience for companies (and apparently presidents) engaging via public social media.
Corporations rely on algorithms to get attention on their eyes, and it’s especially convenient to have everyone on the internet on a ‘central hub’, where you can make sure the most people have a chance to get hooked on what you do (this is also the case for smaller creators like digital artists)
as Twitter proves unreliable I imagine corporations as well as smaller freelancers will work to give Meta’s alternative some legitimacy in the public’s eyes so that they’re not shit out of luck
Though Meta’s bleeding money as it is, they might not be the horse worth betting on anyway.
What don’t you like about this particular article?
Wasnt Jeff directing while Overwatch was experiencing 3 years of drought?
Spiritually I find it died way earlier, but I can see it being the ‘official death’ when he left
I’m no expert, but I found this blogpost insightful: BlueSky is cosplaying decentralization
The more I read about BS’s protocol, the more I think this is done on purpose.
Why? Because it allows BS to pay lip service to decentralization, without actually giving away the power in the system.
[…]
Another pretty good sign that BS’s decentralization is actually b.s. is the fact that the Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) used by BlueSky are currently “temporarily” not actually decentralized. The protocol uses something imaginatively called “DID Placeholder”. If I were a betting man I would bet that in five years it will keep on using the centralized DID Placeholder, and that that will be a root cause of a lot of shenanigans.
[…]
it decentralizes the cost to the central authority by pushing data load onto volunteers, while planning to keep control by being the biggest kid on the “reach” block.
I’m kinda pissy cause the guy never even responded to being made aware of data like this and that
(i feel confident that he saw my comment cause he replied directly at my first one in the thread)
Article absolutely doesn’t go into why someone might’ve thought it was bad, nice meme
my opinion nobody asked for, as someone who played it:
think the main story is great and that it touches upon a lot of cyberpunk themes in a very faithful way, not personally into GTA type gameplay and openworld, so that was a loss for me, but in general the world felt empty (why i tend not to like openworld) and the combat basic especially in comparison to anything promised a year before launch.
It also had some cute sidemissions here and there, particularly the Ghost in the Shell easteregg is tragic, and I enjoyed the sentient car (though I wish I could’ve been hanging out with my AI car alongside my tulpa)
Now you know how linux users feel
Browser: Firefox, gonna name stuff i don’t see mentioned yet
‘Multi Account Containers’ + ‘Container Tabs Sidebar’ + ‘Switch Container’ + ‘Temporary Containers’ + ‘don’t care about cookies’ ‘Consent-o-matic’
basically allows you to easily have multiple accounts on websites while also making sure everything stays contained to its own bubble, and anything I don’t have a dedicated container for gets a temporary container that deletes the cookies after a bit in order for me to both not care about cookies and also not get any cookies. at this point mostly because I don’t like accidentally having an account on a non-contained instance
ff2mpv - easily launch videos in mpv, requires a bit of setup
Image Search Options - finding the source of most drawings, spotting which anime a clip is from etc

My main needs are gaming
Most gaming needs, you’ll have to check protondb to see if you’d be comfortable not being able to play certain games. (games not on steam, you can look to Lutris for community made installers)
While Gold and Silver means games require slight setup (setup is usually explained by user-reports), Platinum means you’re good out of the box, Borked means no chance, you especially want to watch out if your game has an Anti-Cheat (and read the latest user-reports on the game if you’re truly desperate to see if things changed in the last week, like sometimes something like Gundam Evolution quietly enables the linux option in EasyAntiCheat)
If you have a steamaccount, you can log in to get the list of games that you already own on that account to easily see their ratings

god CODEX please come back
I’m sorry for the level of discourse I’m about to engage in, but Zuckerberg knows Jiujitsu, I think if Musk had any actual training in any skillful way of fighting we would’ve seen it - the dude probably knows Zuckerberg knows jiujitsu, maybe he was just hoping that he would ignore the challenge? lmao
[Musk] has talked about being in “real hard-core street fights"
dude’s gonna break his back if he doesnt back out last minute
To my knowledge, Empress hasn’t announced wanting to do Dead Space - Though their cracking times had also gotten longer such as 51 days for RE4make
Might just be that Denuvo cracked down and finally hired new people to add more bullshit onto Denuvo figuring out they couldn’t trust the old ones, if the theory about them being a team is true, that’d probably be the end of things
But it could also be like, some laying-low strategy, we can’t say without being in the battlefield ourselves
I mean idk shit she says just sound like such elaborate troll-shit, it sounds like someone’s having fun with it.
literally “it came to me in a dream”
if it’s mandatory to make an instagram account still, there’s literally no point to use it over instagram
