A small conspiracy theory of mine is them trying to disassociate the term windows recall with negativity. But it backfired hard lol.

JackbyDev ,

My TV and PS4 Pro have HDR. I’m sure it helps make brightness better, but it just makes everything look yellow.

Also, I don’t even think my TV’s HDR works with its apps. I distinctly remember House of the Dragon and trying to see something. I accidentally closed the app and reopened and suddenly it was super clear. It’s like it turned the HDR on (or off) and suddenly everything was visible in an otherwise dark scene.

I’m confused. I don’t have a steam deck. Your steam deck is Linux. But it also sounds like you’re using you steam deck like a Wii U Gamepad for your Windows Desktop? I can’t tell if this is a shit post or a complaint about (seemingly) niche functions of a steam deck.

JackbyDev ,

I didn’t say they did.

EDIT: OH MY FUCKING GOD. I’m blind.

JackbyDev ,

Yeah, I was like wtf do you mean you use it to move windows and control Spotify 😭❤️

JackbyDev ,

Those are synonymous. What’s your point?

JackbyDev ,

To be frank, “anti LGBT” sounds more extreme to me than “homophobia.” I don’t see this as watering down hatred.

JackbyDev ,

Honestly, probably the best outcome.

JackbyDev ,

I’ve seen younger folks begin to overly censor stuff because platforms like TikTok supposedly limit your account’s reach for seemingly minor offenses. This is why you see stuff like “seggs” and “unalive” so often. No idea how often it happens, but that’s just my thoughts on it.

JackbyDev ,

LMBO God bless, how are the children?

JackbyDev ,

It’s been going on for as long as I can remember on TikTok and I started using TikTok during the lockdowns in 2020, so that checks out.

JackbyDev ,

It’s not quite that bad but it was trickier than Lemmy.

JackbyDev ,

I don’t see why the current key can’t encrypt old messages and send those. I admit I might be missing something obvious though. Maybe something like not wanting to accidentally leak old messages? As in it’s less attack surface or something?

JackbyDev ,

PM never implied any form of end to end encryption. It only ever meant people couldn’t see it apart from site operators. I genuinely don’t believe people thought it meant otherwise.

JackbyDev ,

No, should just be your instance admin and the admin of the instance your messaging.

JackbyDev ,

That’s like saying you can’t be 100% sure you never have fake news at the top of search query results. It’s just a fact.

JackbyDev ,

ES6 will have a voiced main character.

JackbyDev ,

Idk, having only played Oblivion and Skyrim, I feel like (generally speaking) the simplifications in Skyrim were for the better. Take custom spells for example. Only a few spells really even made sense to make and it was better to make them in very specific ways. It’s not like the games are super difficult. Fucking around with spells and more complex enchantments was cool but too easy to cheese.

Oh, and the leveling. Holy fuck what an over complicated mess. Where you could accidentally over level but also under level. Insane. Good riddance.

Complex systems are not inherently good. They’re good if they provide meaningful choices and are fun to use. But ES has always been about the story and exploration more so anyways (in my opinion).

JackbyDev ,

I don’t think the announcement implies anything. Truly. It’s just them trying to get shareholders happy about hype.

JackbyDev ,

It makes extremists only able to push a single button and particularly combative atheists able to push none. At least Christians can jump I guess.

JackbyDev ,

Raspberry Pi has been over priced for a long time. I’m not saying they’ve been a net positive or negative, but if you think this will make them a bad company then I think they’ve been pretty bad for a bit.

Apple is bringing RCS to the iPhone in iOS 18 | The new standard will replace SMS as the default communication protocol between Android and iOS devices (www.theverge.com)

The long-awaited day is here: Apple has announced that its Messages app will support RCS in iOS 18. The move comes after years of taunting, cajoling, and finally, some regulatory scrutiny from the EU....

JackbyDev ,

It’s still tied to a phone number/sim, so you can’t just login to the service via a browser or an app.

Damn, if only phones had phone numbers and SIM cards… That must really suck for future iPhone users. Apple really dropped the ball.

JackbyDev ,

Matrix

😂 As an SMS/MMS/RCS replacement?? You’re joking. Surely.

JackbyDev ,

That doesn’t make sense.

The outer most. (There were 4 layers of nested ifs.)

JackbyDev ,

The hardest my father in law laughs is at some boomer email copypasta about shitting like crazy after taking those meds that keep you for it.

JackbyDev ,

Reminds me of when I started using git lol.

JackbyDev ,

Oh god, you’re zip bomb won’t fit in my drive 😩

JackbyDev ,

Saw this in my inbox and thought it was replying to this lol programming.dev/comment/10451457

JackbyDev ,

Honestly, after playing some of Paradox’s Grand Strategy games I prefer those. It’s not a fair comparison since they’re so wildly different though. I love Crusader Kings 3. The way you’re playing a very specific person as opposed to your empire in an abstract sense is very fascinating to me.

JackbyDev ,

As soon as fiber covers the final < 0.5% of my city with fiber (🤞 but I doubt it will happen) I’ll switch off of cable. Until then I can use cable with one provider or DSL with another.

CAFE, BABE, BEEF, DEAD, and of course, 1337.

JackbyDev ,

Who??

JackbyDev ,

This is why I hated r/boottoobig

JackbyDev ,

It’s a shit post, relax

JackbyDev ,

I hated the stacks. Idk why, but it was always confusing how big they should be. When they can’t stack it makes more sense to me. How many troops do I need? As many as I can fit.

A PR disaster: Microsoft has lost trust with its users, and Windows Recall is the straw that broke the camel's back (www.windowscentral.com)

It’s a nightmare scenario for Microsoft. The headlining feature of its new Copilot+ PC initiative, which is supposed to drive millions of PC sales over the next couple of years, is under significant fire for being what many say is a major breach of privacy and security on Windows. That feature in question is Windows Recall, a...

Hey, if it makes some SVP not get their quarterly bonus then maybe we’ll see a marginal change for sex months! Maybe!

“Hey boss, the display in the corner office automatically updated. Can we get IT to switch everything to Linux?”

JackbyDev ,

HDMI? Don’t you know HDCP is proprietary? Best to just log out. Stallman was right and all!

JackbyDev ,

I need $46 billion to motivate me to math the math

JackbyDev ,

Yeah, I don’t view changing your desktop background when you were using the default as an issue lol.

JackbyDev ,

If someone didn’t explicitly choose to use the default then they didn’t set it up. They were just using the default.

JackbyDev ,

Ooooh, so meddlesome, the default desktop background changed, big corpo is coming for you. Come on, we shouldn’t mix actually valid complaints with stupid stuff like this. OP specifically mentioned the search bar thing that they turned off. That’s valid. Forgive me if I don’t see the problem with changing the default desktop background, something that literally all OSes and Desktop Environments do fairly regularly that nobody raises a fuss about.

JackbyDev ,

Nyaaa~ OwO

JackbyDev ,

More like chaotic dumb. This is a good way to get fired and possibly end up with criminal charges depending on how petty the boss is. And based on how stubborn and tech illiterate they are it is likely.

JackbyDev ,

Burning flags you own are your first amendment right.
