I’ll throw in my two cents; Whitelight.

His bio describes his channel perfectly, “the dark souls of game media.”

Goes super in depth reviewing games, such as how they’re structured, and somehow keeps me entertained throughout

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

Not sure if this will help, but find my device on F-Droid is awesome. You can use generic SMS and send “fmd locate” or you can use third party apps such as signal. This makes it so it’ll only trigger whenever you receive that text message rather it running 24/7

It allows you to setup a trusted set of contacts who can then send you a text message “fmd locate”, and it’ll reply with an openstreetmaps link showing where you are. It’s not real time tho

And you can disable it simply by turning off your location

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

No. Do you prefer subscription services?

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

I originally used the 5 year one but I thought it wouldn’t be as “accurate” to their most recent disasters

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

you seem to be 300x more knowledgeable than the suits that run these companies

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

The announcement of the game left an extremely bad impression too, because the game was $60 or $70 but didn’t include all the content, there were three other tiers or “editions” you could buy, the last option being the $8 subscription service that had a shiny blue border around it and included all the content.

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

you’re acting like ubisoft doesn’t actively try to incentive this and push subscription services with overpriced game “editions”

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

you mean to tell me you don’t want to spend $12.99 to be patrick star in discord?? whats wrong with you man https://lemmy.today/pictrs/image/10c42b56-3c2d-4d25-855c-12d04d8976a2.png

Calling unions “legacy institutions” is a dangerous take

wrong post

So what did it take for you to go to Linux? (kbin.melroy.org)

I'm asking what big motivational factors contributed to you into going Linux full-time. I don't count minor inconveniences like 'oh, stutter lag in a game on windows' because that really could be anything in any system. I'm talking, something Windows or Microsoft has done that was so big, that made you go "fuck this, I will go...

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

When I was 13 and still watching LTT I had an extremely old dell optiplex with a 3rd or 4th gen i7 that was really starting to slow down on Windows; I just thought it was old hardware (partially true) but then LTT released a video about Pop_OS and was like “oo what’s Linux” and just deleted Windows and installed it. Never looked back! Everything was super snappy and I was really shocked.

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

Apex Legends and Genshin Impact being a good example of this.

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

The Apex Legends hacking situation was unrelated to the anti-cheat despite initial reports

you’re right, thanks for the clarification! inv.tux.pizza/watch?v=lzW4SDm0yWM

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

don’t forget to leave a star if you found the software useful

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

Some people don’t care enough to try and understand

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

it also proxies the video and blocks trackers iirc, giving you some form of anonymity from Google

iPhones And Androids Can Now Warn You of 'Secret Trackers' (www.ibtimes.co.uk)

In a collaborative effort, Apple and Google have developed an industry-standard detection feature called “Detecting Unwanted Location Trackers” (DULT) for Bluetooth trackers. This standard allows users on iOS and Android devices to be alerted if an unknown Bluetooth tracker is monitoring their location.

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

Aren’t most of the data the NSA collects from third parties like Google and Apple who already sell that data? can’t anybody theoretically buy that data if its being sold? much like the mobile US carrier’s were doing

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

problem is most people do. anybody remember watch dogs?

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

what’s so “new” about this concern? I’d probably be able to afford a house if I had a dollar for every article I saw on Tesla’s wrecking or nearly wrecking because of FSD.

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

brother I’m American and I didn’t even know you could buy waffle maker machines until a few months ago, I thought they were all frozen

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

a lot of the people in the comment section here remind me how much I miss reddit shitposts

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

guys this post was nearly three days ago do something productive you have so much more to live for

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

If you don’t think it’s worthwhile nobody is making you watch.

This isn’t worthwhile at all, there are better things to do and more worthwhile things to argue about than a shit post. This doesn’t help anybody.

I hope you find happiness and success in your life, but taking path’s like these, arguing over something so little for “often decades” with snarky attitudes are the opposite direction towards that.

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

Gaming.

if you game on Linux you wanna go with bazzite, games “just work” on there without any tweaking or fixing or patching. And in the rare case you do need to patch a game like gmod, they have a built in script for it like ujust fix-gmod

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

No, if it’s working for you, why bother? Unless you’re the adventurous distro hopper, stick to what’s working for you. I’d only take the time to switch my home to bazzite if Nobara started causing problems.

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

what?

helpmyusernamewontfi , (edited )

There’s no emulation. Worst case scenario, the game is using Microsoft’s proprietary DirectX graphics API, so we translate those calls to Vulkan or OpenGL with DXVK. That’s simply out of our control since we cannot see or modify the code, but everything else is running on Linux.

Intel actually uses DXVK on Windows for better compatibility and performance for their Arc GPU’s.

helpmyusernamewontfi ,

I’ve been on fedora for quite awhile, what makes tumbleweed better or unique? might try it sometime

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

yeah just like Chromium technically speaking

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

damn I wish I lived where you lived

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

based asf

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

its most definitely the lesser, but there are still many people who would suck off Samsung and Google if they had the opportunity to.

trust me I’ve met them

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

Foss ftw baby

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

Fanboys are not the same as people flaunting wealth.

while they are not the same, a lot of people who use either Apple or Samsung are both, and will constantly fight against right to repair when they don’t know what they’re even talking about, for very stupid reasons, and constantly fight against open standards that are just better, like using type-c for their products, etc etc. these people buy iPhones for the image of wealth, I agree, but these same people also argue about its apps and ecosystem’s and argue that rich, trillion dollar companies are fine and pose no threat, because it is completely fine to be a monopoly and choke hold the industry. they defend their status symbol in every opportunity they get, and often times I’ve seen them make it personal, probably because its personal for them.

sometimes I see these same people who buy Apple as a show of “wealth,” get into those political arguments when they just have no idea what they’re talking about, because for some reason they want to defend the status symbol Apple or Samsing is even if it kills people and the planet.

That’s just my observation over the years.

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

yeah, again, just like Chromium technically speaking.

Let’s use the lesser, Foss version of Google’s product so they can continue to have a monopoly, so then later they can force you to install a proprietary blob or account apps or services need.

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

like I said I wish I lived where you lived

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

nothing lesser about grapheneos or lineageos at all.

iirc there are problems with trying to use some mainstream apps on these operating systems. When I say lesser I don’t mean to demean them, I mean they’re the lesser used and not really known about alternative and thus not really supported unless you can live your life in f-droid which if so, kudos to you, you’re livin’ the dream.

but im all ears if you have a usable alternative for a foss phone.

postmarketos.org

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

while I agree, signal is also on Linux and is a more polished alternative

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

wdym condescension? sorry if I’m being rude that isn’t my intention

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

without software, what is hardware? same vice versa, you need good software and hardware to match for a good user experience.

stock android’s software is extremely shit, bloated, and slow. but I guess that goes for every out of the box os these days ¯_(ツ)_/¯

helpmyusernamewontfi OP ,

bruh

as a linux user I am embarrassed they didn’t know
