Pakistan being in both the “mutilations and genocide” zone as well as the “dictatorship” zone because the line strikes right though Islamabad.

I’ve been trialing Vaultwarden for a while and while I do like the server sync setup and clean web access, the Bitwarden browser plugin is just okay despite being an “enterprise” solution. It misses probably about 20% of websites when creating a new account, forcing you to grab the password from the generator history and make a new entry manually.

KeepassXC is much better in that regard, and it’s almost as good as the default credential handler of Firefox, and it lets you set up a bunch of custom stuff to extend the functionality if you want. Plus it has some neat kbdx options aside from AES256.

Only downside is syncing, which I’m debating how I’ll deal with something better than syncthing on android (protocol is great, android makes it a PITA to have a background process if its not Google spyware).

You mean physically or the software input stuff?

Haven’t tried the steam deck, but I grew up on the DS Dpad so anything that can’t handle 8 direction input with minimal movement is a complete turn off for me.

It’s not specified but I’m pretty sure that not many Americans actually care about Thailand as an expat location, they would probably dream of something in central or South America.

Now British on the other hand… you can just vaguely point at any country that ever so happened to touch the British empire lol.

I would much rather deal with the typical American tourist than a British tourist. There’s a difference between ignorance and arrogance.

My old comment somewhere in my history was something like:

Macroeconomics on its way to ruin Microeconomics in literally every aspect

Also hilariously the first thing you learn in marketing is that having the impossible better, cheaper, and indestructible product will not guarantee you successfully sell said product.

I’m too lazy to find my 3 year old comment but it went something like “AAA games are about as AAA as the mortgage bonds were in 2007”.

The era of the AAA gold standard is long gone. You no longer need a million dollar studio bankrolled by a big name publisher/console to make a groundbreaking AAA game.

Most if not all of those studios have been cost cutting for the past decade to maximize profit which is how we reached the current market of UE5 slop and DoA live service games.

There’s even an entire YouTube channel dedicated to showing how many current “AAA” titles have regressed in graphical optimization and quality from older game engines due to the lack of proper development, despite the advancement in consumer hardware.

Wouldn’t that just be a scaled up version of Saw?

Hey at least its not Windows lol

Something something Indian something something

Anyways, the human trafficking flow is the opposite for South Asia. The oil rich nations like KSA and UAE are notorious for enslaved labor by trapping poor people trying to find work abroad with promises of a living wage and foreign national status.

Which is why their foreign abused labor is mostly Pakistani, Indian, and Sri Lankan.

Pakistan is also so ridiculously starved of international tourism that foreigners have trouble trying to pay for stuff because the locals offer too much.

Some examples:

I thought the point of using AI placeholder graphics was for mock up purposes so the level designers, writers, animators, etc. have an idea of the intended look the artist wants before the artist gets to that section and actually fills it in with their talent, or finalizes their nth edit to where they are satisfied to merge their additions.

Otherwise, why doesn’t everyone just use the purple/black missing texture map everywhere?

I’d even go so far as to assume the artist threw his scratch sketches at an AI and told it to make the mockups so the rest of the dev team doesn’t miss the general idea.

I have no idea if this is actually the case, but why would anyone go out of their way to get an AI to generate a reusable texture otherwise? It would literally be faster to just select a pre-existing option from the game engine library or even just make your own with a quick image tile + save.

And because someone is going to say “Just use Linux”, believe me, I’d love to, but the user experience sucks for literally anyone who isn’t a software developer and the accessibility has actually gotten worse over the 15 years I’ve tried to use it.

Don’t listen to people who suggest Ubuntu (or its downstreams) and the clownshow GNOME desktop environment.

If you have a spare USB lying around, try this live (without installing) to see if you like it and please do share your feedback: https://fedoraproject.org/kde/

Or even just your general gripes with Linux. I had the same outlook when I first tried Ubuntu but I didn’t realize it was just Ubuntu and GNOME being really crappy until I tried a different distro and DE.

but does that still work when resetting?

Yeah, once you reach the setup screen and it asks you to connect to the internet, hit Shift + F10 (sometimes CTRL + Shift + F10) and it’ll pop open a CMD window in which you want to type in “oobe\bypassnro” and hit enter. PC should restart and when you reach the internet screen again, there should be an option that says “I don’t have internet”. Click that and make your local account.

If it doesn’t work, sometimes you have to do it twice. Just did it yesterday on a real machine and it worked first try, but every VM I’ve made had me do it twice.

Just the fact that your comments and posts aren’t nuked by mods and admins for existing is what puts lemmy well above any popular social media platform.

I think the average user is still wayyyyyy better than reddit because you will actually get a decent chunk of normal responses here, as opposed to an entire thread being filled with completely useless text or karma farming addicts.

And thanks to federation, if you ever do find yourself in a dumb instance like hexbear or feddit (lol), you can just swap to a new instance with no problem, and often users will naturally follow to the better instances where you don’t have content censorship .

That’s some garbage W/R and it also doesn’t mean anything unless they share their account name so we can look at the gameplay stats which shows how good they actually are in whatever ship they play in lol.

I’ve seen a guy with 10,000+ games that were almost all in PvE, so he was dogwater in literally every other gameode.

No one who speaks German could be a killer!

The amount of times this has happend with Nintendo leaves me mystified on why modders and devs don’t bother to use anonymizing tools like Tor.

Its like when you buy a 1tb drive and the real capacity shows up as like 920Gb lol

If you’re in the US, bachelor degrees are pretty worthless lol.

Bans and heavy moderation of content.

I’m glad some of the reddit copy communities here like DankMemes died quickly because it was being run by the same loser mods from reddit.

So far I’ve only been banned from I think maybe 2 communities ever. The only one I remember is one of the NCD communities because the lead mod was a dumb dumb.

I don’t really care about complaints of specific instance users because unpopular opinions and comments deserve to be seen, otherwise you create an echo chamber.

So long as there is no brigading, it is much healthier to see everyone’s input.

Also I hope the r/Chodi crowd never finds lemmy lol.

Fedora

OpenSUSE if you want something non American and not directly related to RedHat
