I use Arch, btw. But no, I wouldn't blame my incompetence on my distro even if I were infected, which I wasn't.

Yeah, perfect analogy. No amount of external helper tools making installs from GitHub easier would change the security implications. (Cargo-binstall is an example of such a helper.)

RAM prices soar, but popular Windows 11 apps are using more RAM due to Electron, Web components
Reply in thread
This is what bothers me so much... Browsers should be improving their PWA implementation (looking at you, Firefox) and electron apps should be PWAs more often. Another decent middle ground Is Tauri. SilverBullet and Yaak are both so much lighter and better than anything else on my system.

I asked them to delete my data, they said "Install our app"

Or maybe they just want to disclose as little of their personal information, including services relied on, on an open platform like this. Idk if that's the case, but playing devil's advocate here

What's being recommended is LibreTranslate, which isn't the same. LibreTranslate is server software. On Android, you can use "Translate You". I co-maintain Dialect, which is an app for Linux. We host a server at https://lt.dialectapp.org/ , so feel free to make use of it.

Dev behind massive Skyrim multiplayer mod turns their hands to Starfield, gives up because "this game is f***ing trash," uploads everything for someone else to finish

Cyberpunk 2077 is an actually great game now. Always had the potential to be one, but the devs fucked it up. But at the core, it was still a good game. And then the devs dedicated the time needed to make it actually great. If Starfield becomes the same in a couple of years, what's wrong with picking it up then? Just don't pick it up right now.

God of War Ragnarok Steam reviews are ‘mixed’ right now, as players criticize the PC version due to account linking, just like Helldivers 2.

This is a single player game that wants me to log in. I won't buy something like that, irrespective of what company it's from.

Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney supports the $900 million lawsuit against Valve, arguing Steam is "the only major store still holding onto payment ties and 30% junk fee"
Reply in thread
You know what annoys me about the people defending Epic's lawsuit? The fact that there are actually legitimate issues with Valve and somehow they're hyper-fixated on the non-issues. If they were instead talking about CS2 gambling, lootboxes, etc, I would be in support of it. But no, it's about how they're a "monopoly" because they're one of only two stores that seem to care about their customers...

Not true. Without the workaround, they make it impossible to move forward with installation without a network connection.
