Hogwarts Legacy players frustrated as Starfield and Baldur’s Gate 3 outshine Harry Potter game - Dexerto | Ghostarchive
  • You are right, they should rewrite the engine, but they didn't and they preferred enforce the development on the re-re-re-re-re release of titles like skyrim for every possible platform on the plant.

    Look at what Larian did instead.. Took 6 years, added beta access and listened to the players. BG3 is far from being bug-free or "perfect" but they released a game that give almost total freedom on how you can play it, and doesn't feel like you are on rails every time.

    The problem is bethesda and others "AAA" software houses for years just did the lazy job and now that a software house showed what 6 years of real development should look like everyone is doing the Pikachu face and crying because "We don't want BG3 to set a new standard". The issue is us, the players, that keep buying shit for too much money.

  • How is the situation of nix/nix-darwin/home-manager on macOS?

    Used nix last year but dropped it after home-manager decided to unlink the apps from the Applications directory.

    How is the current situation on usability of nix-Darwin + home-manager + brew?

    Packages still fails to get indexed correctly in spotlight? I really like a fully repro environment but the fact that the usu ability was low bothered me a lot.

    A few questions about selfhosting from a newbie
  • The difference is that you need way more interaction. Expose a webserver on the internet and check how many requests you get from just bots.

    You can control what you navigate and how to interact with the outside world, but you can’t control how the outside world will interact with your services.

  • Low profile keyboard compatible with choc switches

    I am looking for a low profile keyboard compatible with the choc switches. I plan to put the choc sunset on it. I was looking for something similar to the Corne, just without the ergo-split thing. A standard 65-75% would work.

    Bonus for hot swappable and no soldering required.

    X-post: Better understanding and mitigating the risks of using a phone that no longer receives system updates
  • WannaCry targeted hospitals, businesses and similar machines.

    WannaCry targeted everything with SMB exposed, blindly.

    Also, you should read more about security through obscurity, the fact that "no one will target you because you are a low-value target" is a false sense of security.

  • X-post: Better understanding and mitigating the risks of using a phone that no longer receives system updates
  • I believe the risk of running outdated software is super inflated and mediatic, 99% of people would be absolutely fine running a version of Android from 3 years ago or Windows 8.

    That's the same thing people running windows XP on internet were thinking in 2017.

    Then WannaCry arrived and they got their data encrypted :)

  • Perhaps images, video, font etc. rendering could be compromised?

    Yes, it already happen in the past. Also the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth stack got exploited, like multiple kernel drivers.

    But it shouldn't be a matter of "in the past was X exploited?" but more on having a correct security posture.

    Honestly if you are arguing about wasting a "perfectly working phone" you should blame it on the vendor, especially Android devices vendors have this let's say "defect" of dropping the support after 4/5 years.

    Also not going to talk about custom ROMs (with the super rare exclusion of some) managed by god knows who, without any security team behind.

    Since even the NFC and Cellular Network stack got vulnerabilities the only way you would consider an old phone "safe" to use is just turning it into the equivalent of a local ARM server.

    Also pretty fun seeing the replies in the original post talking about how Google Play store shouldn't have malware on it.

    Set default language to English

    What about setting the new language of a post to English? There are people that don’t know how lemmy works that keep on opening new posts and leaving the language to “Undetermined” by mistake so no one can answer them.

    Be careful. New platforms invite bad actors.
  • Because I wanted to try if others URI schemas were supported instead of http / https. file:// was a valid one. Don't worry, the day an attempt of data exfil will happen, you will not see it though your console logs.

  • Be careful. New platforms invite bad actors.
  • Is this, by any chance, originated from the sub called ignore? In that case is probably my bad because is set as the image of the channel. (I was playing with lemmy in the previous version and forgot about it, sorry. It will not work since your browser can't access local file that easily without breaking the sandbox :))

    Edit: I removed it so you shouldn't see the alert anymore. What I wasn't expecting is that apparently every sub is loaded even if you don't visit it.
