I always found it weird for people to recommend BitWarden … it just FELT like a company that’ll go completely off track sooner or later. And it did. Oh wonder. KeePass ftw!

No. Use more. Via proxys. Cause them lots of traffic and zero revenue.
- Comment on DeArrow is an open source browser extension for crowdsourcing better titles and thumbnails on YouTube. 2 months ago:
I never used it, but yeah I guess it’s basically the same. LibreTube, the Android App I use, just happens to use piped so I selfhost that and therefore also use it on the desktop.
- Comment on DeArrow is an open source browser extension for crowdsourcing better titles and thumbnails on YouTube. 2 months ago:
Sounds like piped also has most of that. As a bonus, piped requires no account, no addons and no direct connection to google.

- Comment on Generative AI creates playable version of Doom game with no code 2 months ago:
I know. The inherent problem of games made with those engines is the lack of motivation, knowledge and experience of devs to make (programmatically) good games. Only very few games using those engines are good in that sense, and as exceptions confirm a rule I’d just simplify it to that statement.
- Comment on Generative AI creates playable version of Doom game with no code 2 months ago:
Many games, especially AAA games or ones relying on common game engines, are actually horribly inefficient. It’s hard to run any Unity/Unreal game in 4k on my 1070. Even if it has shit graphics like Lethal Company. What does run well? Smaller, custom engines, even Metro Exodus runs with 60+ FPS in 4k on my 1070, and still looks very good. Why? Because 4A Game is/was actually interested in creating a good engine and games. That’s the whole reason they split from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R team: Because, in their opinion, the engine was too inefficient.
Most games are just a quick cash grab tho, especially ones by large companies like EA. Other large companies with a significantly lower output of games, eg. Valve, do produce programmatically higher quality games tho.

Afaik Linux is always a bit more performant. But the two are not comparable anyway, simply due to Linux not being bloated.

Hmm. I think many services just don’t and can’t participate because they’d need to break E2EE. Telegram wouldn’t with most chats.

- Comment on Ryzen CPU owners can now download better gaming performance thanks to a Windows 11 update 2 months ago:
I only use Windows in a VM, and never activated it, ever, but my point is that M$ officially thinks that their “advertisement delivery platform strapped to a program loader” is worth 259.00€.
- Comment on Ryzen CPU owners can now download better gaming performance thanks to a Windows 11 update 2 months ago:
Yep. But the fact M$ believes a few tools that are even far, far inferior to Linux’ tools are worth 60$ is a statement in itself.

Windows 11 Pro, doesn’t matter if it’s just the License or with USB, officially costs 259€. Which is ~289 USD.
www.microsoft.com/de-de/d/windows-11-pro/…/000P
And even for the US, it’s 200$.
www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/windows-11-pro/…/000P
This is just the official price. Of course, you’ll almost always get free Win 11 Home with new computers, or a Volume License for 10€ from ebay, or you just don’t activate it. But the official price by M$ is 259€/200$. Which kinda means they think it is worth that much, and it would be justified to charge germans almost 300 USD for “an advertisement delivery platform strapped to a program loader”.

Well yeah. Imagine for a 250$ “Operating system” to take weeks until it performs the same as a FOSS OS.
