Would be handy if they included a pre-written pdf to oppose this proposition + emails or forms to easily submit your opposition to each of the countries.

Instead it's a general "contact your government",

Simple Xposed module to support the Belfius app on Rooted devices!

Source
https://github.com/Rikj000/Belfius-Root#belfius-root

License GPLv3

Motivation
Belfius bank was pretty cool about having a rooted device in the past,
they just threw a dismissible warning about security risks of using a rooted device,
and then allowed you to keep using their app.

However on 2024-07-01 this changed.
Nowadays they assume that you're an idiot that will not be able to keep your own device safe if you have root.

I do not agree with that assumption, and likely neither do you.
Only power users that have a good idea of what they're doing tend to root their own devices.

After only a hand full of transactions, done through the tedious browser process,
I grew agitated enough to do the research to write this module.

Hope you'll enjoy this module and the ability to stay rooted!

Fallout 4 Fans Are Begging Bethesda To Stop Updating The Game by Rikj000 in c/[email protected]
[-] [email protected] 164 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

My "nExT gEn" update experience:

  1. Get baited to re-play Fallout 4 through the new TV show + Next Gen update
  2. Be disappointed since the graphics aged like milk + Official HD texture DLC sucks
  3. Be disappointed since the update broke nearly all mod support
  4. Roll back to the release before the Next Gen update + Uninstall the Official HD texture DLC
  5. Install 205 mods, and happily play with nearly everything in 4K

FYI, most mods I installed are from:

Interesting, so in between lawsuits and takedowns they still do game related stuff from time to time huh?

One thing is certain,
due to all those lawsuits and takedowns,
I won't be buying into their next console,
they won't get a single dime from me anymore.

Why can't I just buy it without being charged for preinstalled spyware? by Rikj000 in c/[email protected]
[-] [email protected] 118 points 4 months ago

I hate that nowadays everything comes with pre-installed spyware and that they charge you for it makes it even worse..

  • Want a TV? Suck on our Android TV with Google spyware embedded
  • Want a phone? Get our Android with Google spyware, or go for an Apple with Apple spyware
  • Want a computer? We'll shove Windows spyware down your throat

Ffs I just want devices that I own to not spy on me, and I can't even buy them anymore..

Each of them require flashing a custom privacy respecting OS onto it,
and that's a real problem..

I'm happily impressed by how good it looks!
Apart from the low resolution font/texts,
I'd forget that I'm playing a mobile title from 2015 😄

Edit:
I disabled the High Resolution Textures,
because they cause:

  • Random game freezes in connection orb screens
  • Slowdowns while in villages / dungeons / connection orb screens
  • Incorrect black / white rendering of clouds / earth during cut scenes

[Guide] "Easy" awesome Alpha Frostallion (discuss.tchncs.de)
submitted 5 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
0 comments fedilink

I figured out a way to "easily" get them in single-player.

Recommended prerequisites (Not so easy):

  • Reach level 44, for Legendary sphere's
  • Upgrade your Capture Power to level 10 at the statue of power with Lifmunk Effigy's

Cheese method for Alpha Frostallion:

  • Install one of following mods:

    They both will show you the passive skills a pal has,
    allowing you to check em out before catching the pals,
    so you don't waste sphere's

  • Travel to Frostallion,
    check his passive skills without battling,
    if they're not as desired, exit / re-enter your world,
    that will re-spawn / re-roll in a new one with new passive skills, repeat till you find a desired one.

  • Start battling as soon as you find a desired one,
    took me 20-30 minutes for mine.

  • There will be a large / tall ice rock in the area
    (Coordinates X: -349, Y: 519),
    just start circling around it,
    always keep the large / tall ice rock between you and Frostallion

  • Eventually he'll climb up the ice rock,
    and will fall down from it eventually as well,
    which will hurt him through fall damage for about 300 - 3000 HP!

  • Rinse and repeat until his HP is low,
    then start throwing your legendary sphere's 😄

Am I the only one getting agitated by the word AI (Artificial Intelligence)?

Real AI does not exist yet,
atm we only have LLMs (Large Language Models),
which do not think on their own,
but pass turing tests
(fool humans into thinking that they can think).

Imo AI is just a marketing buzzword,
created by rich capitalistic a-holes,
who already invested in LLM stocks,
and now are looking for a profit.

If Nintendo would invest the money they pump in DMCA takedowns and lawyers in their games instead,
then perhaps they would have a chance to make something equally good as Palworld.
