- Comment on Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month 1 week ago:
Of course they don’t use it. They want your data, not just your age. As long as the government does not make using ID this way for age verification mandatory*, companies will continue to use processes that give them the most data that they can sell.
*: As in not making verification mandatory but if a company wants to do it they must to it this way

If only the upgrade process wasn’t so annoying with postgres…
- Comment on Rainbow Six Siege ravaged by massive server breach that gave its players billions of paid currency for free 1 month ago:
yeah I stopped playing games where you have to pay for new characters (or unlock them by earning the “free” currency, it only takes 100 hours!) 9 out of 10 times, the new character would be completely busted in the sense of balance so if you didn’t but them, you’d fall behind. Pay2Win, but hidden a bit better.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Bezos sues the prometheus project to change their name due to trademark infringement or something…
- Comment on PSA syncthing-fork has changed owners 2 months ago:
Thank you for the notice. This is a really bad look on the project. Thankfully I still have a version from before the takeover installed and disabled auto-updates just in case. Though I suspect f-droid will not accept builds by this person until trust has been established.

You would use a Wine Prefix Manager like Bottles or Lutris (both on Flathub). Steam itself does prettymuch the same or similar things as these.

Heard the same thing. Many people are saying it, very smart people! So maybe it’s true? I’m just asking questions!

so even in traffic it should be like 5+ car lengths even though you are going slow.

- Comment on Gen Z Is Cutting Back On Video Game Purchases 6 months ago:
Unsurprisingly. Games have gotten way more expensive and a lot more soulless. Gems like BG3 are a rarity. The recently released “enhanced” edition of Neverwinter Nights 2 is an awful cashgrab and an disappointment after the successful enhanced edition of the first one so I’m just playing through the original release with an unofficial patch again…The only game I’m looking forward to this year is the new Anno and given that Ubisoft has its fingers in it I’m still wary about that one.
- Comment on Polish Train Maker Is Suing the Hackers Who Exposed Its Anti-Repair Tricks 6 months ago:
Keep in mind that legal/illegal can (and often is) be different from ethical/unethical. In a perfect world, laws protect everyone equally from unethical behavior. But nowadays, law is more and more misused to protect the upper class and oppress the lower class. Not saying it wasn’t so before already, but it’s leaning that way a lot stronger in recent times again.

I bought mine secondhand because I had a bad feeling about giving google money just to degoogle as well but still really wanted to use GrapheneOS
- Comment on Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy two longest running best friends. 8 months ago:
Pyre is more like a visual novel with some gameplay here and there. Now I don’t mind story heavy games but towards the end I found myself just clicking through the absolute ton of dialogue there was. Vastly preferred Bastion and Transistor which almost never interrupted the gameplay but were still able to tell amazing stories.

- Comment on Getting mixed signals from Reddit. Furthermore I shall henceforth be on Lemmy full time. 9 months ago:
My reddit account got a strike by an admin for describing the risks involved in traveling to the USA currently (abduction, torture for an undetermined amount of time). The appeal I made to that was accepted but it left a sour taste in my mouth.
