Jokes on you, I'm here doubling down, spending more seconds posting this comment:

Have a great and fruitful rest of your life, dear internet stranger!

IIRC Uber has patented dynamic pricing based on a ton of data, including your phone battery being low. I wouldn't be surprised if they hiked your fare just because you were on the car shop.

Obviously they say its not in use but who could check

That's what whiskey is for

Articles too much time too, so I made you this

• Google bad, tracking sucks
• Android -> graphene
• Keep -> joplin
• Docs -> nextcloud
• Gmail -> proton
• GMaps -> car GPS
• Tailscale
• Selfhosted on SteamDeck

Seems more and more transparent that the only strategy Dario is pushing is to scare people so governments ban FOSS AI, that way most people would have to use "the safe sanctioned AI" (and pay through the nose for it).

I wonder if politicians getting lobbied are greedy as always or just retarded.

No need, at least on Firefox you can hold down shift (or alt? I never remember) + right click to bypass such restrictions

Think of it as a very generous unlimited trial, kinda like winrar but without the nag screen.

Crap, this is not the BBS I wanted to call... welp, might as well put something on the wall.

Greetings to the older folk on Lemmy!!

I already commented on Outer Wilds, and this one is probably not fitting on Patient Gamers, but...

I have never just stopped and listened the main menu of a game fully, on multiple occasions... Until Expedition 33.

For whatever reason I felt like i was comitting a sheer disrespectful act to interrupt it.

Theres are some pretty massive archives already, including Flashpoint

Lmao then they bitch and moan when people abroad start cutting back on us-based tech and enforcing open standards

Don't forget about Sony rootkits on music CDs

There's a key point in the article that emphasizes that valve are indeed "being nice": their policy is " upstream everything".

Yes the motives are still keeping a foot out in case Microsoft decides to screw them over in some way, but they could (as many companies do) keep the improvements all for themselves, buy developers and make a closed source version of any of the tech they have been funding, locking down steamOS to only allow steam games and so on.

By the amount of exploits and privilege escalations he pulls off (and the fact that everything is stuck in 1999) I'm almost positive that the matrix is running on some sort of WindowsNT

Thats an aussie delicacy, what struggle?

Snags ftw, mate!

Kenshi pretty much fits that request a 100%

I'd rather have studios continually testing against proton over releasing a decent port that gets abandoned, foregoing all the improvements. I went full Linux back in the previous "steam for Linux" push. A few studios released competent ports for what we had back then. As an example: Metro games were OK ports but now they look and work far worse than just switching to the windows version on Proton.

And other devs made poor ports, got a ton of flak from the very vocal userbase and said "never again" (CDPR with witcher 2)

Check the global total deployments, US is not the only place in the world with smartphones.

That being said, shout out to the self-hosted crowd! Look at the graph for number of servers!

Some sort of gecko, maybe a Tokay gecko?
