When your city implements confusing cycling infrastructure
  • Cars can't actually drive down this road anymore. The only vehicle traffic allowed through this area is busses turning around and taking their breaks at the end of the line.

    I guess you can technically access parts of this road through the alley way but there are definitely bollards up at the Broadway end and the other end is right turn only for busses. This area is not high vehicle traffic

  • Denuvo wants to convince you its DRM isn’t “evil”
  • "Anti-piracy technologies is to the benefit of the game publishers, [but also] is of benefit to the players in that it protects the [publisher's] investment and it means the publishers can then invest in the next game"

    The only entity benefiting in this scenario is Denuvo, while the client clutches their pearls to protect a misguided concept of the elusive lost sale. Denuvo rakes in cash in the name of copy protection, but the truth is most acts of piracy are driven by a lack of means to obtain the product or a desire to demo the product.

    Sure it's their right to protect it but I don't think there's any accurate way to actually measure the impact of games with and without such aggressive copy protection.

    [Android][App] Obtainium. Get Android App Updates Directly From the Source.
  • Only reason I installed it is for it's ability to use GitHub releases as a source and notify me if there are updates. As far as I'm aware you have to use f-droid repositories with f-droid -- but it's been a long time since I had f-droid installed.

  • Some trouble
  • Install Lutris.

    Use the battle net install helper for Lutris.

    Launch battle net.

    Profit.

    It's like one extra step (install Lutris) compared to Windows. Using Linux doesn't have to be some archaic mystery and the proliferation of the steam deck is doing wonders at improving the ease of use of all this stuff.

  • Spoiler alert: your individual choices don't matter. Drastic and sweeping changes need to be made at the corporate/supply chain level if we have any hope of surviving this.

    So... We're fucked.
