Considering that some searches right now tend to be thirty different “news” sites republishing the same article… I dunno how to feel about this.

And the entitled bs still doesn’t stop, even when called out. From recent comments on the issue:

He wants people to give him money just because he wants it.
I hope God guides his way into salvation.

Crackhead bs right there.

The amount of changes I’ve made and things I’ve installed. If I move to another distro, it’s gonna be at least a week before I have everything back up to where I want it.

Wow. I hate that. It’s positively terrible but it explains so much. And worst of all, I am in far too deep to switch distros at this point.

Workstation has been free for personal use for a while now. Of course, that “free” was locked behind some weird process that was paradoxically focused on business use. I don’t expect much more from this change.

Also Doctor Who.

Wait, is that the actual like it copies? Does powershell just straight up parse base64?

That’s not specific to shitty suspicious marketplaces. Fucking Chase Bank allowed some fucker to use my E-mail address with no verification. I didn’t have any idea until I started getting emails about this asshole’s mortgage. They won’t do a damned thing about it, either.

Uh… No it isn’t? Like, my dude, did you click the link up there?

Blocking an article worldwide based on the orders of a single oppressive regime? That settles it, Wikipedia is no longer worth donating to, since they’ve proven they’re willing to bow to this type of thing rather than stand behind the truth.

I still dualboot because I have games that don’t work right, but every instance of that in my case seems to be problems with DXVK. In some cases, but not all, I’ve noticed it severely degrades performance, and in others, it seems to break certain features, such as streaming video. I actually had one game that I finished about 90% of before I encountered a sequence with a projector playing a video with important information. That would only display on Windows without DXVK, which was… unpleasant.

Of course, the most extreme DXVK problem I ever encountered was about two years ago, but I can’t remember what game it was. What I do remember, however, is the extreme and rapid flashing it caused as the visuals horribly corrupted. IMO, DXVK functionality seems to still be one of the bigger hurdles.

The headline is slimy

Are you referring to the use of the word “killshot”? Otherwise, the headline says exactly the same thing.

Its offline installers ‘cannot be taken away from you’

No implication of outright ownership, just that they can’t take away the offline installers. I mean, I guess it doesn’t outright say “that you’ve already downloaded,” but given the length, I’d say that’s a passable omission.

I would personally recommend not purchasing it. Not saying don’t play it, but there’s no one who will profit from it who should.

I’d just like to point out that WordPress is GPL, so anyone could do whatever they want with the code, including Auttomatic. If people using the software in a way that, although uncool, is totally something they agreed to, the best bet would be to leave WordPress as-is and spin continued development into a new product with a new license. Would people like it? No. Do people like this, though? Hell no.

Please, DOJ, smash Google with a hammer and redistribute the pieces!

Also works fine on Boost, links to a post on !technology@lemmy.ml

Maybe you should open an issue about it?

I use Floorp and Startpage. I don’t trust DDG after the whole Microsoft debacle. Though, I’m not really that hot on Startpage since they use the same deceptive advertising practices as Google and Bing (disguising ads as results).

Yep, at that point they’re just fishing for more which, hey, why wouldn’t they.

It’s a give and take for sure, requiring a real phone number makes it harder for automated spam bots to use the service, but at the same time, it puts the weight of true privacy on the shoulders and wallets of the users, and in a lesser way, incentives the use of less than reputable services, should a user want to truly keep their activities private.

And yeah, there’s an argument to be made for keeping crime at bay, but that also comes with risks itself. If there was some way to keep truly egregious use at bay while not risking a $10,000 fine on someone for downloading an episode of Ms. Marvel, I think that would be great.
