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.

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

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

I see a lot of news of it “coming soon” and leaks, but not an official release. Do you have more info?

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

The independent YouTube would have done the same really.

Does it require internet at any point to activate/check the key? If so it’s the same with extra steps.

want to see a world where content creators are simply paid by the hour, while they work.

Do you? Because that’s how game developers get their ideas crushed in favor of yet another game as a service that nobody asked for but makes stock holders happy.

And for alternative creators, who would pay? Do they need to be churning content as a job and not because they are inspired?

I get the idea, it’s just that seems hard to pull off

I would pay to not use PowerShell, but I’m a Linux user so I don’t need to :)

I really wish they get to the point where we can expect long term with no breaking changes. I love it but I have been burnt twice, which is not a lot, but it was very annoying both times

I hope they get to release v4.6.1: “It doesn’t even matter”

The problem is that proton needs to translate direct X to Vulcan, but Apple doesn’t allow Vulcan, it has to be their own thing, Metal.

So it’s a lot of work for valve and fully dependent on apple not screwing them.

Might be due to my instance, but I see downvotes. Not nearly enough as it should have after reading the article though.

It is a moral imperative to pirate EA, Ubisoft and Nintendo.

When what happened to me, I had Chrono Trigger. Shortest 12 hours of my life

That is called the Streisand effect.

Well, they kind of gave it away with the name…

Ok, I’ve never heard about that. I might run some form of stress test just to see better.

Portable software worked in the past, but I don’t want IT calling me… A third time.

What you are saying in the first paragraph seems more about cooling capacity rather than the computer taking more power than the power supply can handle. I might have misunderstood, but that’s what I don’t see happening with the charging brick. It does happen with the usb-c hub that’s integrated on the monitor. It barely even keeps the battery with normal work, while my previous x13 (integrated graphics) had no issues regardless of task.

I don’t know the power in idle, I can’t install anything, not sure if I can check. If you know a way let me know and I’ll try.

My Lenovo P1 with an i7 and a Nvidia 4900 and a 230W adapter is wondering what you’re talking about.

Not a myth. Better batteries might have better safety measures, but none is inmune. It might not have happened to you but I’ve seen it happen in several high end/expensive brands already.

For simplicity, I have it in regex format

Jokes aside, Nintendo, EA, Ubisoft, Nintendo, Activision-blizzard and Nintendo are the ones that come to mind.

If indi and plays well on deck, I’m generally on paying.

Who’s going to take this as legal advice and name a project Apple?

I did use it in the past! I should check it again. I didn’t like how the multi user was planned (basically independent instances), but was long enough things might have changed.

Good, once I can trivially not follow instructions between updates I’ll check it again.

This is not a criticisms got immich, once they are in the stable phase I’ll try, just I don’t have the time to be checking the notes every update just in case.

My stack is very large, I rather use sw that requires little to no micromanaging.

I love immich, but I’m going to settle for something that doesn’t require to modify the compose every couple of months due to breaking changes. Trying to apply changes for two breaking updates in one go killed it for me.

I’ll check this one for the time being

100%. Most nuisances on Linux are considered issues to be fixed or improved, in windows are by design.

I see your point, but I don’t think this would qualify as decentralized. It went from 1 to maybe 8 players depending on where you are, but they are separated and closed. Each one of them is centralized, it’s just that there are several competing ones. Each one is taking away their shows or making some third party ones exclusive, so the more there are, the less vale each provides.

And of course the issue is that each one has to be paid separately, so there’s a economic incentive to participate in as few as you can.

With Lemmy for instance, you might want want an instance that’s very connected with others, one that’s quite closed and focussed or even create several users or even spin your own instance to have it your way.

To be fair, for me the fact that they content is now spread across many subscription services is the problem more than Netflix’s price or current quality.

Once I set are services, torrent and jellyfin for all of the others, I’m not making exceptions for Netflix

Option A sounds good

You can use the browser or an app, just like YouTube

Legally speaking it’s piracy and copyright infringement.

Unofficially, it’s a moral obligation to download and seed.

This is just gold. The comics and switch games I’m going to study. Thanks!

One question, do comics include manga too?

And no alligator was involved. Unbelievable

I guess the question was not about the recent firing but about the company history in general.

Aside from probably ignoring any and all copyright and initiating the AI craze, did they do anything worse than any other company?

Could be, but the rumor of something like this happening had existed since the Vista era.

I don’t think it’s happening mostly because there is no real benefit for Microsoft. IP holders are not hounding Microsoft, and their store market share is inexistent.

Buuuuuuuuut just in case I use arch (btw)

Spanish is also wrong, this one means “ignore-letter-size”. I’m not sure if there is an official correct way to say in a short manner, I would say “ignorar-capitalizacion” but I think it’s just a barbarism.

Weird it happened twice? My god you are a lucky person.

Massive kudos. I had the need for something like this in the past and it would have been a blessing.surely it will be for somebody else
