  • This is a major Life Pro Tip

    Jump

  • Nightingale to add offline mode "as soon as feasible", as devs say they "misjudged" player demand for it

    Jump

  • Testing what they can get away with is my guess.

  • Has Google’s search results drastically declined for anyone else?

    Jump

  • I just started using this one today: https://docs.searxng.org/ and it did a great job for what i needed. I never heard of it before, but found the link on an old Lemmy post.

    I don't know how it would work for other people with other needs, but i needed to find graphic designers to help me with a project. DuckDuckGo kept giving me hundreds of results from a handful of big companies, but i wanted small companies and individuals. Found exactly what i needed on the first search using this engine.

  • How do I cope with my father hating me?

    Jump

  • I agree with this post. Move on and build your life your way.

    I'd like to add, in case it's helpful, from my own experience the thinking about it never ends. My dad passed 40 years ago and i still have the same thoughts, feelings, arguments even (a little more one-sided now that he's gone, though). I mean the dynamic might last forever, but you can separate that emotional internal dynamic from how you live your life. And there's a kind of "this stops here" effect, because your own children will never have to deal with all that stuff, because you dealt with it and moved on. That's something to be proud of.

    Jump

  • Just by coincidence i'm watching a gameranx video about the 10 worst AAA games, and Falcon says the same thing about games as a service (subscriptions, micro-transactions, etc.): "it seems like they're playing a game of chicken with the consumer to see what they can get away with".

  • 505 Games' parent company lays off 30% of its workforce, says gamers really only want sequels so that's what it's going to make

    Jump

  • Yeah i think we're in a golden age of indie games. When i want to find a new game, i search youtube for "best indie games of 2018" or 2017, 2021 or whatever. So much great stuff to play made in the last 5-10 years. And so much more affordable. And it feels great to give my money to these devs.

  • EU Article 45 requires that browsers trust certificate authorities appointed by governments

    Jump

  • What are your favourite things under 50$ that make your life a bit easier or more pleasant?

    Jump

  • Lighthearted, upbeat shows for adults?

    Jump

  • British panel (game) shows like Would I Lie to You and 8 out or 10 Cats Does Countdown. The game element is just an excuse for funny, interesting people to crack jokes and have a good time.

  • YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers

    Jump

  • I got them on Firefox with Ublock Origin but only with my VPN on US or Canadian servers. Then a few days later, even on those servers they disappeared. Haven't seen one since those first few.

  • I tried. It was exhausting. I'm better now.

    Jump

  • US immigration enforcement used an AI-powered tool to scan social media posts "derogatory" to the US | "The government should not be using algorithms to scrutinize our social media posts"

    Jump

  • Why are so many studies being retracted?

    Jump

  • More likely because researchers, professors, and even grad students are desperate to publish because their jobs require it in the new research-for-profit model of universities and colleges, so they work too quickly and take shortcuts to make their publishing quotas and deadlines.

  • Telegram starts to look like a super app, echoing WeChat

    Jump

  • Good point. Sleepwalking into authoritarianism doesn't seem difficult these days.

  • YSK How to Prepare Your Phone and Other Tech for a Natural Disaster

    Jump

  • Yeah i agree. For what it's worth, here are 2 ways i use to bypass captchas: Use this site: https://archive.fo/ Use a vpn and set the server site to a location that nixes the captchas (Denmark, Taiwan, etc.)

  • OpenSubtitles Hostility

    Jump

  • True. I once considered subscribing, some years ago, but customer reviews of OST convinced me not to. Looks like i made the right decision.

  • Telegram starts to look like a super app, echoing WeChat

    Jump

  • These "super-app" fantasies always ignore the fact that WeChat is ubiquitous in China because the Chinese government practically requires everyone to have it. How exactly is that supposed to be replicated in a non-authoritarian society?

  • Google gets its way, bakes a user-tracking ad platform directly into Chrome

    Jump

  • Any of thousands of people can say this but i don't see it in the comments below so: I've been using a Linux Mint / Windows dual boot system for over 10 years and love it. I think a lot of people see Linux as highly technical, but versions like Mint and Ubuntu are more carefree than Windows nowadays.
