  • C'est dur

  • Lutris Login Requirement for GOG Game Ownership Verification
  • Personally I use innoextract on the installer, add the game to bottles or even steam library if I add it to my deck and play. No need to even bother double clicking installers, it's doing the same process of extraction with dumb banners I don't care about.

  • i accidentally rm -rf my movies directory. can someone provide magnet links for these
  • Why did you even run that command in the first place? You didn't know what was going to happen? Then stop using your drive, make a copy of it in case it goes wrong, and recover your files with testdisk or other forensic recovery tools.

  • What is your ratio? 😅
  • Looking at my stats on a tracker, I'm almost at the peta uploaded with ~200 TiB down, so I guess a 5:1 ratio. I had no idea but now I'm going to look and screenshot this milestone once I hit the PiB!

  • Should I be aware of something when buying a TV?
  • I don't know if this applies to you or not, but if you are like me, and I believe around 10% of the population, stay away from PWM as it will give you big migraines. But that you can only know if you are sensitive to it by encountering one of those screens. If you own a pretty recent mobile phone with OLED or AMOLED, chances are they use PWM and if you are fine with them, you should be ok. But always best to make sure. They never really advertise this so if you can go to a physical store to see the screen or look around the internet before buying that helps.

  • Google raising price of YouTube Premium to $13.99 per month
  • That's pretty much implied in my message with the 256 kbps AAC which I believe is what youtube music is using (format id 141).

    Downloads and background playback on mobile is already possible,

    Whatever I don't even care what you guys think anyway, I gave my opinion, you don't like it, that's fine.

  • Google raising price of YouTube Premium to $13.99 per month
  • The only thing worth a YouTube premium subscription is probably the higher bitrate formats if you download/archive all the videos you care about. Latest version of yt-dlp gives you access to those (except the highest audio quality format, I think it was 256kbps AAC), but this will probably be patched sooner rather than later.

  • Brave browser allegedly sell copyrighted data
  • w3m, qutebrowser, firefox built from source with telemetry and other stuff patched out . Firefox really when a site didn't work on w3m or qutebrowser.

  • Brave browser allegedly sell copyrighted data
  • I read the article, it's still a crap browser. Even if the article is bullshit, a browser that advertises itself as good for privacy and then giving you "free money", it doesn't add up. You can say all you want, you can even be a crypto shill for all I care, if they give you anything for free, you are the product, nothing is free.

  • Brave browser allegedly sell copyrighted data
  • Something always felt wrong with this browser. After using it for a few minutes I uninstalled it right away, it didn't feel right.

  • Advertising revenue in Twitter crashes by 50%
  • Of course! It's because of Threads! Don't you guys get it? They stole their secrets!! It has absolutely nothing to do with how things are being run on twitter or because Elon Musk is a genius!!!

    Fuck Musk and fuck twitter and all that goes with it.

  • New EU regulations mandate user-replaceable batteries in Apple products
  • Unnecessary stuff like waterproofing a phone? Yeah I agree.

  • Do I need antivirus program?
  • Also never copy and paste a command line you see online, it can hide nasty things.

  • New EU regulations mandate user-replaceable batteries in Apple products
  • with the right tools they already are

    That's the point, it is so you don't have to require any special tools that you have to purchase or rent, or having to deal with glue and all that crap.

    I prefer compact and waterproof design over an easily replaceable battery

    You think because it's replaceable it can't be compact and waterproof? Ever used a watch?
    A more current example before you complain that no one uses watches now and only smartwatches is an AirTag from crApple, they are waterproof, compact, and the battery is replaceable without any tools.

  • Official Unixporn Community on LemmyWorld
  • Go back to reddit and leave us alone. The community itself has decided that this was the official one (where most users are) so this is it.

  • YggTorrent Loses Control of Domain Name Without Warning (TorrentFreak)
  • Yeah well, they change domain name ALL THE TIME, it's nothing new. They probably have a lot of them lined up for this exact thing. That's why we're supposed to use ygg.to

  • Where would one stream (be a streamer) live sports?
  • I guess for now I'll steam here:

    ssh101.com / live / bustedpancake

  • Where would one stream (be a streamer) live sports?
  • Thanks but doesn't tell me where I can stream one event myself. Do you know if they can be contacted to be a streamer? That's what I'm looking for, where to be a streamer.

  • Where would one stream (be a streamer) live sports?

    Edit: TL;DR: I want to be a streamer and don't know where to stream to

    I'm not entirely sure that's the right community for this question, but a recent post about how we're in the "golden age of sports streaming" reminded me of the time I used to post and stream matches on reddit. It was fun, sometimes stressful when things went wrong trying to get it back up as quickly as possible, but overall enjoyable.

    I've thought about going back to it, but I wouldn't know even where to begin to host a stream. When I was doing it, there used to be platforms you could use to stream at (like ssh101 or streamup), of course avoiding youtube and twitch like the plague, but what about today? What site could one use today without it being taken down every 5 minutes to even start streaming sports events? It seems like it's a lot harder today than it used to be years ago.
