Guide: how to push your users to piracy
  • How much of the "coins" actually go to the artists and writers?

  • Anonymous Torrenting With I2P.
  • His actual computer related stuff has good advice in it but a lot surrounding that advice is indeed pretty sus or extrapolates to clownish end analysis. Like Ford patenting a speeding snitcher to put in their cars that reports other nearby speeding vehicles to the police is going to lead to the end of non-autonomous driving. I wonder if "car dependency" means anything to him. Just engage with it critically.

  • Anybody use micro text editor?
  • They want to get to the equivalent of vim's :

  • Anybody use micro text editor?
  • Unbind ctrl+e from your window manager / terminal emulator. The shortcut is never reaching Micro at all.

  • Quest 3 is now the second most popular PC VR headset
  • My first thought to "adjusting the price to reflect 2024 reality" was a price increase...

  • What gamepad?
  • I use a PS5 controller connected through an 8bitdo USB adapter 2. It works great and has a much more stable connection compared to the bluetooth adapter I used to use. I've had no issues using it in xinput mode on Linux; games pick it up as a normal xbox controller and just work. The adapter also works great for bringing your own contoller to friends' houses for any console party games without having to do the bluetooth pairing roundup minigame. The only real issues I have with it is that there's no auto disconnect when it's idle, and as you mentioned the firmware flashing tools are all Windows only.

  • The Elder Scrolls Online now “officially” playable on the Steam Deck
  • Add-ons work just fine. You can even get a native version of the add-on manager Minion from Flathub. Not all of addons support the gamepad input mode, but that's the same situation it is on Windows.

  • What's with the sheer number of shutdowns recently?
  • Is there actually an Agenda2030 or is it just late stage enshittification?

  • DankPods just switched to Linux!!!
  • I agree he didn't do a good job evangelizing Linux. He made a video about his experiences with it, but I do think it's representative of someone googling and first time trying Linux on their own without a guide friend to tell them, "oh you can do it this way now." Him ultimately sticking with it in spite of that for data sovereignty is kind of the whole point of Free Software so I can respect that.

  • DankPods just switched to Linux!!!
  • I like his other channels for drums / drum history (Drum Thing) and cars (Garbage Time), but notably the main DankPods channel has 1.65 million subs which could bring a load of new people's attention to Linux.

  • Images to animated GIF offline and FLOSS ( Linux )
  • I use gifski

    It's designed to squeeze the best quality possible out of the ancient format that is gif

  • Last night Organic Maps was removed from the Play Store
  • To be fair on most Android devices sideloading isn't a very meaningful term, but on locked down devices like iOS it is.

  • Ryzen 9000 non X processors
  • The new X branded chips have the same TDP as the previous non X chips (65w), so my guess would be that we are more likely to see some XT branded chips that try to push more performance instead. The 7000 X chips ranged from 105w to 170w.

  • MiG switch ban questions
  • If we both play the same one online at the same time do we risk a ban?

    Yes.

    I noticed that previous articles about it mentioned you could actually fake certificates and make it seem like two different games were playing? Does anyone know if that's still a thing?

    You would still be risking a ban.

  • a list of desktop environments who support wayland ( eg cutefish,ukui,deepin)
  • Closest thing I can think of would be the tags system from DWM iirc or AwesomeWM or on Wayland RiverWM. They can be used like traditional workspaces but you can have a number of workspaces (tags) active at once. However, they are more merged and tiled together instead of overlayed on top which sounds like what the special workspace would do. At the time I used AwesomeWM I never really used the tags system to it's full potential and only used it like traditional workspaces.

  • What should I do when I see headlines about personal data getting breached? How do I keep such info off the internet?
  • If the breached data contains your account passwords, cryptography keys, credit card info, etc you should update and invalidate that information. Once that data is out there, there isn't really anything else you can do but make that data no longer useful.

  • A Small Tool to Make Modding Proton Games Easier
  • Thanks, I'll look forward to it.

  • A Small Tool to Make Modding Proton Games Easier
  • Does this allow running multiple executables at the same time inside the game's proton prefix? Like say, running the game and a widescreen memory patcher at the same time.

  • How paranoid are you?
  • Gotta weigh in the benefits of privacy/features vs anonymity for your needs.

  • Is there a repo / website with sharable NixOS modules?

    Does anybody know if there is a website or resource that has NixOS modules you can include in your config?

    Sorting comments
  • That is only temporary though and does not set the default.

  • What tools to verify NSPs?

    What software is out there to verify that NSPs are authentic and unmodified? I would prefer one that runs on a Linux terminal.
