  Isnt it a security bonus, if not all data is sent throught the edge “VPN”?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox CEO Asha Sharma shares her gamertag — what it reveals⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  On the one hand I see the reason for criticism, when a person that apparently never touched a video game becomes a XBOX CEO, on the other hand does her account really read like a real one, and I think this is great. I think there is nothing easier for an Xbox CEO than to have a fake account created going back 20 years and showing thousands of hours of gaming or have somebody game for you Elon Musk style.

  This reads like someone that is actually preparing for the new role she has to fill and making her own gaming experiences and listening to community feedback.

  Is it as good as having someone as CEO with a long history in gaming? Probably not. But I think this might be the next best thing.

  And they have enough people to maintain and inspect the hundreds of thousands of reactors that are going to be built, if those small reactors work?

  From personal experience I can tell that once I went for the basic knive sharpener, the mean sharpness of my knives increased significantly. Yes, the whetstone makes them sharper, but it takes so much tile that I usually used my knives far too long before I sharpened them again. Once I got some basic knives sharpener (thebthings you pull your knive through), I suddenly started to sharpen the knives the moment I noticed they became a little dull.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gothic 1 Remake | Release Date Trailer (June 5th)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Back when the original released it was a great RPG with a great story and a world that felt alive, compared to most other RPG that were on the market. The world was open to explore from the begining without any safeguards to run into strong monsters, which helped the emersion a lot. The controls were strange, but worked somehow, when you got used to it. Combat was challenging and the leveling was rewarding, because you got notably stronger. I hope the remake is good and translates these strength into the modern age.

  So you are not looking forward to the new CopilotBox by Microsoft?

  Ok, so Mastodon can post to lemmy, does this also work the other way around? And could I follow persons on mastodon somehow woth my Lemmy account? Does this show up as a small community?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨LLM's despite all the flaws it probably made it easier to switch to Linux.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have mixed experiences with LLMs and linux. While it helped a lot with the basics, like what partitions are needed and how to set them up or how to prepare the bios, it failed miserably, when my mint Installation on my old laptop would not boot. It got into a loop suggesting the same not working solution over and over again. The first normal search result had the correct solution that worked flawlessly (some problem with asus laptops).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta progression in roguelites was fun for a while, but it's starting to feel unrewarding⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Same for me. The start of the game was great. The difficulty just right. But most of the new characters are too strong. I stopped playing after I unlocked the duo upgrade, because there was simply no challenge left. I enjoyed it long enough to still recommend it for the price, but i feel like there is so much of the game left and I am somehow sorry I will never play it…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Operation Sovereignty - Germany plans a breakthrough from M$⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I hope they follow through with it. And I also hope they allow for quick incremental changes instead of aiming for the perfect solution right away that will take a decade to develop and implement. Just to be clear, I think it should be the far goal to be fully independent from US and other non-EU software.

  Same for me. In the moment I left the starting dungeon I lost all interest in exploring the world. Tried it 3 times over the years and never progressed further. I am wondering if the remake might be different and worth another try… I heard so much good about oblivion that I really see me enjoying it.
