Did this in university in the very first week, quite a few people dropped out after that 😅

I think you’d like syncthing

Trying to Download Fallout New Vegas on Lutris but getting an error code. I feel like I need to manually select 32 Bit download but Ihave no idea, (lemmy.world)

I downloaded Fallout 3 through gog.com and as soon as I figured what the hell I was doing, I got it downloaded and playing great. I’m on a Chromebook Plus with an i5 and Iris Xe graphics. When I go to download NV, it prompts me to a message that tells me Wine is preparing a 64 Bit download . Shouldn’t it be 32 Bit?...

I can’t even get this game to work on an actual windows install

grandma ,

This is possibly something you could implement in a meta search engine like SearXNG, though there are some privacy concerns.

Maybe it could locally store which domains you personally tend to click (and stay) on. Then automatically raise those domains when it sees them somewhere in the output of the underlying engines. This isn’t perfect because you wouldn’t get data from other users. But I think it could do a lot to improve search results.

I might actually clone the repo and see if I can get somewhere soon

Articles paid for by the public through grants btw

I’m afraid they would just make yet another barely functioning launcher/storefront

grandma ,

I wasnt considering buying any more snoy games after this whole debacle, and I certainly won’t if they make their own launcher. But unfortunately the average gamer just doesn’t care :(

grandma ,

It’s a step in the right direction

I love how vending machines run windows now

grandma ,

Makes sense, but a vending machine shouldn’t need a fully fledged OS in the first place imo

grandma ,

Yes of course Linux is a fully fledged OS, my point was a vending machine should not need any OS, my bad if I didnt make that clear

grandma ,

TIL about windows kiosk mode!

I can understand it from the perspective of the developers who need to implement all this crazy tracking/advertising/graphics functionality, but imo a vending machine should only do three things:

  1. Let me see what is available (preferably using glass)
  2. Accept payment
  3. Give me what I paid for

Vending machines have done this for decades without requiring an operating system. Keep it simple!

God I hate websites that autoplay unrelated videos and DONT LET ME CLOSE THEM TO READ THE FUCKING ARTICLE

Court blocks $1 billion copyright ruling that punished ISP for its users’ piracy (arstechnica.com)

One thing that leaps out at me about this ruling is that courts understand the internet a lot better nowadays. A decade or so ago Sony would have probably gotten away with the argument that Cox profited from the users’ piracy; nowadays judges themselves use the internet and are going to go “lolno, they probably would have...
