  God wonder what dragon quest 12 is going to be like, I loved 11 so much.

  Ah, another post where I get to rant about Piratesoftware. Fuck that self righteous, egotistical, fear mongering, ignorant, big headed, grifting, skript kiddy, cornball. Dude couldn’t be assed even to read the Q&A, then makes up stuff about the initiative out of thin air. Dude is such a little weezel, I can’t BELIEVE he still has a following after his hate campaign against the initiative. The fact that anyone outside of his immediate family cares about what he has to say boggles my mind.

  TLDR: Thor, not my cup of tea personally.

  Get the extension “DeArrow” it replaces thumbnails with random frames from the video and let’s the community edit titles, and auto un-capitalizes titles.

  Compared to seeing Mr.Beast clone 678-1080 taking up the front with jimmy Kimmel for some reason, Yea I’d rather see a blank page too.

  Sorry, I went to sleep not long after I made that comment. I see I was beaten to it but, he was just so dramatically crass and rude when introduced to the movement, and said mean shit about Ross, the guy behind the movement, calling him gross, a greasy used car salesman, saying “he can eat my whole ass”. And after all of that, he refused to speak to Ross and continued to make 2 entire youtube videos, and some livestreams about shit talking the movement, fuck that snotty little prick.

  For sure, Wikipedia is for the most basic subjects to research, or the first step of doing any research (they could still offer helpful sources) . For basic stuff, or quick glances of something for conversation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk wants to rewrite "the entire corpus of human knowledge" with Grok⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Wikipedia gives lists of their sources, judge what you read based off of that. Or just skip to the sources and read them instead.

  The quest was nothing new sure, but the reason I’m doing the quest? I want her to have the best dam date ever. I just wanted to see her happy and help her get ready for her date. Not sure what they were talking about with her being aromatic, don’t remember that. And about the age thing? not sure what they meant by that either, she looks the same age as Pavarti to me.

  Star field was just mediocre enough that it pissed me off, the loading screens and menues are egregious enough to make me go ballistic. It’s hilarious because instead of criticizing the game for actuall gameplay, at launch it was lambasted for “pronouns”. Then normal people got to playing it and actually explained the issues.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's an absolutely medium quality game? Not great, incredible or terrible or any single ended extreme. Dead medium quality⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I was going to say outer worlds as well (outer WILDS is a fantastic game IMO) the game was entirely competent, just unimpressive in every way. Except Pavarti, she is a precocious sugar dumpling and must be protected at all costs.

  Be the change you want to see, make your own stuff! Maybe try to reach out to smaller creators and recomend peertube, even if they don’t end up useing it, at least you tried.

  Everyone who is capable of hosting a peertube instance should do so, even if it’s just to host your own content. I know, “it will never replace youtube” but if as many people as possible use it and share bandwidth between each other we will at least have SOMETHING in terms of a youtube alternative.

  If GOG benefitted Linux users as much as steam does then Yea, I’d be throwing cash at them every payday. I love GOG and what they do, but I also need to show support for what valve is doing for Linux too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What are you talking about? This is a post about Plex. Nobody is gonna think about bringing up Tailscale for criticism. Tailscale gets plenty of skepticism in the self hosted community, whenever I see someone recomend Tailscale I usually see someone bring up that it can be a victim of enshitification. It doesn’t get hate (yet) because they haven’t fallen to enshitification (again, yet). But the main reason is probably because you dont NEED Tailscale for Jellyfin. When it does shit the bed, use headscale, netbird, wireguard, or any other vpn if you are really are so apposed to Tailscale.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I am very fortunate in that before Plex I found and used ps3 media server/universal media server. Because of that, it always felt odd paying just to stream my own content on my own hardware. I am certainly not against paying developers, but Plex always felt like paying for another service, not donating to an awesome Dev cause I love what they do. Another reason I stopped using Plex, I couldn’t get anyone but myself to give a dam and use Plex, (suddenly, when NETFLIX gets The Last Air Bender, NOW my sibling wants to binge watch it. 🙁). Jellyfin has served me just fine so far, it fucks up only in the same situation plex did, when I try watching with someone else.

  Completely forgot about that, I do really like the Heroic Launcher.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft is raising prices on Xbox consoles, controllers, and games worldwide⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not ALL steam games have DRM. Yes, you should buy from GOG whenever you can, but if you use Linux like me, GOG doesn’t give a shit. It can be hard to decide, support DRM free games and proper ownership with GOG, or expanding compatibility with Linux and improve it in general. If its cheaper on steam cause of a sale or something, I’ll buy on steam, then years later like with DOOM 2016 for example, I’ll buy it when it hits like 4 bucks on gog. That way, I have acces to an offline installer, and I show support and interest to valve for investing in proton.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The YouTube Alternative Nobody's Talking About ! Peertube⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  A lot of people, despite using a federated reddit alternative, will think of any reason to discourage the use of peertube I’ve noticed. It doesn’t need to REPLACE youtube, that’s basically impossible. You can use Peertube WITH YouTube. “Does it do anything different than youtube?” You can control what gets deleted and what stays up. “That’s the only thing? It needs to do more.” You can livrestream with it, and why would it need to do more than youtube? It gives you fucking CONTROL back in your hands! This is all about putting the people, back in control of the internet! The p2p aspect of peertube makes this the best competitor a community has to these giant companies with their world burning server farms. Why is this so hard for people to not be fascinated with having an option you can run with old PC hardware?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The YouTube Alternative Nobody's Talking About ! Peertube⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It can also host your live streams, twitch has mandatory adds or something last time I checked after you gain a certain amount of viewers. If you multistream, you stream to twitch and inform them about your Peertube being add free.
