When RIF died, Voyager became the new forum app for me.

MVG finally lands on lemmy, let’s go!

Yeah, I guess that was a bit too far, posted before I checked the user history or really gave it time to sit in my head.

Still, this kind of meme is usually used to imply that the comment is just a trend rather than a legitimate statement.

Sure, and apart from maybe bringing a temporary headline from some dramatic act of eco-terrorism, what’s the average person’s options at their disposal?

Granted, you’re posting from a European account (hi from the US where this issue is even worse), but at the civilian level with people who do not have the capital or political influence to interrupt the engine of society, why risk anything by trying? For such marginal effect?

AI industry shits on above comments by harvesting private data and creative work without consent or compensation, along with being a money, energy, and attention tar pit

Buddy, do you know what you’re here for?

EDIT: removed bot accusation, forgot to check user history

Ai bait used to be believable…

Yeah, fair. I guess spite alone may not be enough of a motivator.

On the list thing, it seems that adding numbers with periods in a list seems to auto configure it to ascending numbers. That’s why I used (1) (3) (4). Weird, but I guess that’s the work around.

Enrolling your keys doesn’t work btw, because battlefield checks which keys you enroll, only accepting the default MS keys. Also on the hardware front, it is a big problem for gamers on a sub-300 USD budget these days - the best deals are on legacy hardware or surplus office equipment, mainly AM3-AM4 era.

(1) Yeah, well the secure boot keys needed for Linux distributions expire in September (https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/cyber-security/microsoft-signing-key-required-for-secure-boot-uefi-bootloader-expires-in-september-which-could-be-problematic-for-linux-users), so that seems like a sustainable solution, sure buddy.

(3) What’s your income? What region of the world do you live in and what hardware is available to you? I’m still using an am4 platform PC as my daily driver because I can’t burn money. One of my buddies has an AM3 PC. Many people use modified surplus office PCs (especially in developing nations like South America or SEA), which don’t have secure boot as an option. Check your privilege, and maybe donate some of your spare hardware to those who need it, if you want to make this “a non issue” for everyone.

(4) Yeah. I own my hardware, I configure my software. I gut Windows like a fish and keep it on a leash for these games, and use Linux for my work and for the games that respect the ecosystem.

DayZ, Rust, TF2 and Minecraft were the model all along. Nice that it’s vindicated.

It’s already dead mate. Hop on the finals, we got linux support.

How long until the DRM is cracked and a “community version” is available?

… it’d be funny as fuck if it happens soon :)

Yeah, but you can’t circumvent this on iOS. It’s incredibly easy to spoof information on android.

I haven’t, but I will now! :)

The future is now, old man. Been dealing with this my entire life.

That can be done on android and other operating systems. Apple is always the SOL option when it comes to dodging this crap.

No. There’s far more examples of scientific advancement discovery being shot in the knees by theocratic groups than the alternative. Religion is a social tool used for shaping human interpretations of their role within human society, not a legitimate way to enhance our understanding of the world.

I would go as far as to say that having a strong association with a religious organization is an incredible detriment to any technological or scientific advancement.

I’m still looking for a Librewolf or similar Android fork, has that ever made it close? I know the original project devs dont seem interested.

Add arrogance to that undesirable cooking pot.

Because they pay apple? I’d imagine that’s obvious. It’s more useful metrics for the developer. I would be surprised if they didn’t tier the information access about users behind closed doors.

Android’s not perfect, but at least permissions can be set per app, you can root your device, or install GrapheneOS or Lineage to bypass this crap entirely.
