  RTBF doesn’t prevent governments from remembering. Only public facing databases.

  Live services.

  The thing Sony has done so well at over the last decade.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaving GitHub. Music server alternatives?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Codeberg or anything hosted in the EU is an unfortunate no-go.

  GDPR DoS Bomb made it so - ‘right to forget’ means that a bad actor can kill a major project by invoking their right to forget, which would mean all code they’ve ever submitted would have be audited out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leaving GitHub. Music server alternatives?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If you consider using software that has version control on GitHub immoral, then using TCP/IP is immoral.

  What is this commie ‘meter’?

  Uh, it’s the length a photon travels under vacuum during a time interval between two hyperfine ground states of caesium-133 divided by 299792458⁠. Duh.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why isn't Mbin more popular? ⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Reddit was a fusion of old forums and Digg before it nuked itself.

  I never cared for Facebook or Twitter style following people, threads in a topic board feels just more natural.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why isn't Mbin more popular? ⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s too newReddit and Twitter for my liking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where will nsfw game creators go now that itch.io has "changed"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No, they paid lip service to finding a new payment provider

  This is less a itch.io problem

  No, it’s their problem. Passing the buck up the chain doesn’t help the NSFW game developers, it’s trying to save face for a cowardly corporation, itch aren’t your friend.

  For a remaster no less.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Payment Processors Are Pressuring Major Gaming Vendors to Pull LGBTQ+ and NSFW Titles⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  A few days ago there were many here saying the idea of a slippery slope to banning LGBTQ+ games was nonsensical.

  Yet, here we are.

  We’ll probably find out about a few extra games that were cancelled just before they were demo’ed later on.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox returns to gamescom next month with over 20 playable demos, including Hollow Knight: Silksong⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  games releasing on Xbox

  I’ll believe it when I see it, They’re probably just announcing 20 cancellations.

  Silksong

  Won’t believe that until it’s on my local storage, until then it’s just a myth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Handbrake local vs docker on Synology DS920+: same settings, very different results?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No problem :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Handbrake local vs docker on Synology DS920+: same settings, very different results?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  but does the hardware affect the output quality/size if the settings are identical?

  Yes, your laptop has a much newer quicksync block with proper HEVC hardware-

  NAS is Gemini Lake, which uses QS from Broxton/Apollo Lake/Gemini Lake

  Laptop is Tiger Lake, which uses about 3 versions newer QS, for Tiger Lake, Alder Lake and Raptor Lake.

  Broxton QuickSync doesn’t actually have an asic encoder path for HEVC, it’s all via shaders.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The short term profits of going SFW only to appease payment processors vs. keeping everything but making it crypto only, which in the short term would be disastrous for income, but in the long term it would recover and they’d have independence from censorship.

  Instead they chose to keep bigger profits and start deleting accounts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  RIP Itch.io

  Choosing short term profits over long term userbase, it’s all downhill from here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Steam didn’t push back at all though…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Survey of Income and Housing results will not be released | ABS⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In other words: It shows that average Australians are slipping into poverty into faster than the government will admit, so the report is being suppressed.

  It’s unlikely we’ll get the results of this survey ever again.

  I’m on the fence, it’s nicer than material design (I’ve always hated ‘material design’ though) but it’s so colourless.

  Bring back skeuomorphism!
