If you had real shitty internet back in the day (read 56k modem) and you liked to play russian roulette you would dump satellite traffic with a skystar2 DVB-S card. You never knew what you’d get realistically, found some true gems underneath mountains of coal in the day of (still) unfiltered internet.
Those two are really the only good use cases today for facebook. Insane how Marketplace pretty much overnight almost killed local listing sites. Events I don’t see good alternatives, don’t have much hopes for that one, time will show
I just switched to Bazzite yesterday and it’s insane how far linux has come. Next-next and everything works, even on a nightmare combination of hardware (Lenovo Legion half assed uefi, amd apu+ nvidia gpu).
To be frank I have used it since it started way back and it continues to have the best user experience among messengers. I myself don’t use it for any crucial information but as a messenger with it’s featureset it’s second to none. When a better alternative pops up which will have a better UI and such an extensive featureset I will probably switch over
For the first time in a long time I might stick seeing the state of Linux today, especially Plasma 6. I’m eyeing Fedora 40 or Bazzite, tried Kinoite and pretty much everything I need works out of the box, the only thing I need to figure out is OneDrive.
Who in their right mind celebrates kills on humans, in the end only regular people get harmed in any conflict, never the instigators from both sides
Shout out for Smart Tube, the best YT app on smart boxes/android TVs, never had any issues
Now that you say it like that, why do purely singleplayer games need internet connectivity at all beside DRM and shovong DLCs down peoples throats
Care to ELI5 for us casuals who did not catch and are missing the obvious?
Maybe yt-dlp might be for the job?
Just a few days ago I downloaded some videos from Vimeo without issues which required sign in to even view
Ubisoft won’t own my money too!
Right off the bat it sit right, thank you
In the same boat, I miss it still, other ones have a worse UI for me and hate the ad slots in the app although I have DNS ad blocking but its still annoying. Do update me if you find a good replacement as we’re looking for the same thing
You may hit the nail on the head, once you get the broom you just breeze past everyhring. The forbidden forest may be the most dense content wise on foot, everything after that does feel more sparse as it was designed with the broom in mind. All in all I still enjoyed the game and got my moneys worth out of it, I did pick it up rather cheap on a sale
Damn, didn’t occur to me at all, I do use MicroG, but that still doesn’t explain late notifications on the iPhone. This is going on for quite some time, friends also report the same issues regardless of plaform
Thinking about it we may actually have less breakage now as Blizzard has started selling Diablo 4 on Steam provided they implement it well. Does that version come with battle.net launcher as mandatory or is that requirement foregone beside account linking?
I’ve noticed notifications are working sporadically now for quite some time (at least half a year now) for both Android (both Play store version and APK) and iOS from my experience. Only on the deskptop version of it are notifications instant, hope they will fix it at some point
Bought Hogwarts Legacy a week or so on a deep discount and I’m enjoying the hell of it. During december I traditionally watch the Harry Potter movies so now I expanded to the game. So far it might be my game of the year since I didn’t try Baldur’s gate 3 yet, I’ll pick that one up on a sale later on. I’m taking my time and explore every nook and cranny in the game. I was hyped for Diablo 4 as a long time devotee but in it’s current form it’s simply not fun and needs quire a rework for me to pick it up sadly. The atmosphere, visuals, music, even combat is spot on but it lost way too much on other fronts. Starfield is another game which I put on hold as I simply didn’t continue the game at some point, will probably resume it after a few more patches.
Yep, used Skygrabber, you could filter out files depending on extensions, filenames etc and could narrow out what you wanted. Still had no real way of knowing what you’d end up with as you were effectively just passively listening on the satellite traffic. It was wild as you could fill out a 40 gig drive overnight without issues in the era where people were downloading a MP3 album for hours.
