The website is trash can someone summarize?

I think there is something to respect about both types of games these days.

So if I am seeing this I am good?

Isn’t it above 16GB?

Maybe I am misunderstanding the numbers.

I have an RTX 4080 with 16GB of VRAM and won’t be able to play it on my Samsung Odyssey G7 at 4K with max settings. That is wild.

Isn’t this a lab toggle?

Lol, I love when Lemmy supports privacy focused stuff then turns against itself realizing it is still a company making money and requesting money.

All neat,

Pixel sort of does the first one.

All phones basically do the second one.

Goodlock is fucking awesome.

The last one, while cool, could also be unhealthy.

“(on Reddit (/comments/). yuck!)”

Guys, we fucking get it. You hate mainstream apps like reddit but the solutions aren’t on Lemmy until someone finds them elsewhere like reddit.

Do we really need to emphasize our hate for something every damn time we make a post. Thanks for the solution but why couldn’t you have just posted the solution.

God I hate Lemmy, they want a bigger user base to stay away from content controlled by big corps and to move to federated content but will shove their ideals on the community every time and that is what keeps pushing people wanting to stay here away. We don’t need to hear about FOSS and Linux every time. And we get it. We hate reddit that is why the user base moved here.

EDIT: God I love Lemmy.

They don’t, and honestly, Snapchat is what most of Gen Z is using to the point I believe it has even confused Facebook so Facebook has copied Snapchat.

Snapchat also has even more reason to update and appeal to that age group.

Not an SO story.

Not to you know brag or anything here guys but I did have 3 people fighting over me once.

2 of them actively ended up sleeping together to try and get me to pick one of them.

I chalk it up to, “pfft it’s because he uses Linux.”

Kidding of course. In all honesty, I had gone through a very confusing breakup. At the time I was sleeping with three people. All of them knew about one another and they all knew I wasn’t looking for anything serious because of the previous breakup. I was also trying to finish school.

All three people were really sweet and I still talk to two of the 3 and they are good people. We were all 4 going through a confusing time in our life. The one I don’t speak to now is married. I wish all of them well.

Also, before you ask. (You won’t but I feel the need to clarify) I am genuinely meh on the attractive scale or so I am told. So I don’t know which black magic was at work but it was a fun and stressful time.

I am reading half of these stories and just appreciating how all three of the people knew about each other and all ended up being chill with one another and me. You all are dealing with some crazy shit.

This is sus…

Are you sure you aren’t a drug?

It’s because they use Linux.

Break into hers next. That will show her.

No that is why she asks Husband #3 to read his name out loud when he is hitting it from behind.

“Do you like me?”

Yes or No

“Look, I know you think I am insane, but let’s be reasonable. Are you sure you don’t want to be with me?”

Student in IT with a digital forensics degree but, “that could be said with any software you install.” That’s not how security works you shouldn’t think about, “am I vulnerable because all software and hardware is vulnerable.” You should consider it like, “how likely am I at risk of being hacked with this software/hardware.” What is the trust worthiness.

Like consider this would you buy a gun from a stranger or from an official source. Which is likely to get you on a radar for a stolen weapon.

I absolutely love pokemon and I mean that with passion. I have an original, Gameboy, Gameboy SP, Nintendo DS, and 3DS with all of their corresponding Pokemon games, Crystal, Fire red, Leaf green, ruby, etc like genuinely love the game but I am absolutely wary of anything that runs well on iOS or Android unless I know where it is coming from.

While you might be fine what you should be aware of is that iOS doesn’t just always allow this kind of thing.

Additionally, compiling your own code from GitHub also doesn’t mean anything. Open Source is great but the chances of malware being less of a thing aren’t exactly true. I hope you enjoy the game but when their are actual security experts (I am not including myself in that category) telling you to be wary. I would consider those statements.

Terminal on Windows looks amazing.

I second this. Lemmy is fully of “techy people” that think the only way to be “techy” is the way they define it without realizing if you aren’t universally adept or open then you are curating your content to a point you are part of the “sheep” you claim not to be a part of.

If you like anything you pay for then you are wrong. If you still use Windows you are wrong. You need to abandon everything Google and Apple but still buy a Google product and run a degooglefied version of the product. So give the company you hate your money but not your data. Makes perfect sense.

It’s either Linux or the highway but not everyone wants to use a terminal to use Mullvad or Tor every time you want to access the web to shop for a pair of shoes. Despite the fact you can write a script that still requires you to use a terminal to run Tor or what ever.

Not everyone wants Torrent speeds to pirate that piece of Microsoft software or movie. Some of us want to be, “normies” and just buy and use things that work without all the work that is unnecessary in our every day lives. We want to go to work, make money, spend time around people and things we love.

Yes, we get it we are the reason corporations and capitalism exist but I don’t see your FOSS downloads and open source software slowing that way down. We don’t need online tech heros who can prove you can free yourself. We need activists and people like that running got local politics and leadership helping actually put a stop to being taken advantage of.

Posting something about Unity enraging game companies is something anyone can do. But shoving a community off that you should be respectfully educating rather than shunning just because someone didn’t want to pirate a movie and instead watch it on a Windows machine through Linux isn’t or doesn’t change anything.

I am no longer on Reddit but Lemmy is fully of tech people who also often have 0 fucking clue what they are talking about. Which is quite ironic.
