Damn that's such unnecessary DRM, I think it should be illegal to serialize parts like that for a mass produced product.

For the smartphone, what do you mean by software unlocked parts? For the rest I'm in total agreement.

The high end graphics card market really needs more clean RGB free stuff. My 3090's lights didn't turn on despite it functioning just fine so maybe that counts :) ?

As for case I know you had plenty of answers already, but I recently got a Corsair 4000D my latest build it's sleek and has no inbuilt RGB lighting.

The person you replied to is giving the classic "they must have been acting suggestively" excuse.

For playing and downloading the games, SteamCMD.

For viewing the store or community pages, a browser? Maybe you could get the Steam Deck version of the store page?

Israel is sure showing how they aren't killing civilians indiscriminately.

If your submission does not meet any of the criteria above, you will be BANNED!1!

Note to app users and alternative frontend users (such as mlmym), there are some breaking changes so you will need to update the app or wait.

You'd be surprised what a squad of cops can do on break.

...and use that as a strategy guide to oppress others?

I think federation with Meta will improve Mastodon, and doesn't affect Lemmy too much. Threads users will be able to post to our groups, but the discussion will be mostly within communities on existing servers.

The worry is if the bulk of discussion happens in Meta's space. Yes, people will feel like they are missing out if they are on a Masto server defederated with Meta, but there is enough activity from people outside of that to be engaging. On the Lemmy side, (hypothetically) if Facebook Groups were to become like Lemmy communities, I'd be very concerned that most of the discussion would move away from places like here on lemmy.world and other cool servers to Meta's. Then by the time Meta decides to leave or do something stupid then people will not have a place to go to.

Very interesting to see! Thanks for compiling these.

"A more affordable way to use Plex [or another subscription service]" is how it always starts...

Even Canadian news media was the same. Trump would be on there every other night at least, and people tuned in to see what lie Trump told or stupid thing he did today. Many even had a special banner attached to it, similar to special coverage done for Olympic Games, certain wars, events or elections.

Meh, I take all the news and developments with large lumps of salt for this topic especially.

I believe both that Hamas is operating behind human shields to curry favour against humanitarian law, and that the IDF is more or less indiscriminately harming civilians, refugees and militants of Palestine all in the same brushstroke to excuse extermination as merely retaliation (also against humanitarian law in case that's not clear to anyone)

If it was a dollar an hour, then GTAV would be $1208...

But of course, TV AFKing took up a solid chunk of this time... because of forced waiting periods. Sooooo combine a pay-to-play per hour model and forced waiting periods then you've got MTX "Shark cards" with extra annoying steps.

Banned of the Master Bans Most Important Ban of Extreme Bans to the MAX!

Now it's called Bill.

I'd only recently noticed the change, because my multipicture and short video sends were failing less often.

Screw all notions of modern time... return to Japanese Time

Daylight and Nighttime, each divided into 6 periods, varying in length based on the season and labelled in order of 6, 5, 4, 9, 8, 7. Longer workdays when the sun is out, shorter workdays when it's dark!

How come we find out this about Mike Johnson before his finances/bank account?
