I worry the day Lemmy becomes inundated by Russian bots and…, oh hey Hexbear and ml, what are you doing here? Promoting genocide again?

Sorry I got distracted.

Finally, the Steam Mate!

Fellow EU here. Those prices are crazy. My peak price is 0.18, while the valley is 0.08.

Then don’t. Use only when you need it, or use literally any other free offering there is. This is not for you.

hosting the db in a network storage? That’s self hosting with extra steps.

That was my point. They (forum users, I don’t think actual developers) insisted that it’s a middle solution. That I could use the application and whitelist only the browser and that some JS could bypass the VPN and get the real IP.

I got two years of Nord for that same reason, then two of Proton that’s about to end, so this was probably around 4 years ago.

I don’t have the source, but they confirmed it’s automatic. The caveat is that it is based on $ sold, not units. So the deck will count as 7 or 8 full priced games.

Browser extension for the VPN? I remember asking in the forums some time back and they were extremely hostile to the idea.

This is from an old interview, but I haven’t seen them retract

They already said SteamOS will be made available for OEMs and general users, they want to polish it before

The dip in “others” correlated to the increase in Linux being correlated is not an issue. They need to add up to 100%, how do you expect one to increase with l without a decrease in the other?

I’m currently using shottr, but without those bugs I would still use flameshot. Might be due to familiarity, but I liked it more.

Also, if I can I rather use FOSS.

On Mac, with multiple displays, it seems to be broken. Sometimes it targets the wrong display, and mixes the resolutions. Have tried for a while because it seems perfect on Linux.

Will try again in a while

The funny thing is that Google can’t make a big fuss about it without screwing themselves when they are inevitably sued for the same thing.

Not sure if somebody mentioned, but you can export to one drive. So you can get a 1TB account for a free trial or for a single month and export everything there as simple files, no large zips. Then with the app download to the computer and then cancel one drive.

Pretend to be in California/EU and then ask full removal of all your data on both Microsoft and google

Some coworkers play it and say there was a rework/update “recently”.

They also say its much better now than on release.

ELI5: what does this mean for the end user? Is there any simple test I can do with both to see this?

I didn’t downvote it, but I really didn’t like the video. It goes like “the things that are problems in Linux” and then starts talking about an extremely customized system, from DE to kernel, to audio…

I don’t think he gets, in general at least, to explain why those are needed, just how complex it all is. It would have been more interesting to say “this are the problems with an out of the box distro, and the hurdles it took me go fix each one”.

Mind you, this doesn’t mean I think a fresh install of Ubuntu can perfectly work for him. But knowing what didn’t work and why might be more helpful for people considering the same

There are a lot of S3 compatible backend that are not amazon

FastAPI, not a language, but a very good python library, if somebody wants to read the story
