Apparently, Linux hosts do not show up when setting up the connection. Hopefully Linux support gets implemented ASAP.

I did take a look at them and bookmarked one of the news sites, thanks 👍

Why is it apparently cool and fine for insurance companies to spend countless billions, trillions of our money constantly buying ad time? in c/[email protected]

The only issue with that is their prices go up if their costs go up. Kind of like how grocery stores claim that theft causes prices to go up. It is their money, though it does feel bad paying them.

I stopped looking at Lemmy for a long time, up until yesterday, due to the content being really depressing. Reddit didn't hate society, capitalism, or really everything as much as the Lemmy users seem to. I might stop doomscrolling here again.

This is why Valve supports and actively pushes Linux Gaming. in c/[email protected]

Right now Valve could disappear and gaming on Linux would continue, better for the efforts Valve have already made. I would think that the improvements would stagnate without Valve, though.

Non-Steam utilities like Lutris, Bottles and Heroic run games nearly as well as Steam. We'd carry on.

Apple does it too. Not that it's any excuse.

The irony in these nerds attacking WoW nerds.

Edit: for the record, I'm a nerd. But I'm a live and let live nerd.

Would you prefer if games had a separate difficulty setting for boss fights? in c/[email protected]

I'm the complete opposite. I don't want to feel like the game is letting me win. I want to earn it, at least a little.

Android Ad Privacy (lemmy.ca)
 

A notification popped up on my phone today talking about this. I hit the button to adjust the settings and found that it was opt-out.

No, I don't want my app usage being used for ads. I don't want targeted advertising at all, but none of our fucking countries will take a stand against this shit.

This might be the thing that finally pushes me to switch to GraphineOS.

There was a time that I felt like Google was one of the good guys; they seemed to be doing great things with their products and pushing Linux. Now I feel like I want to de-Google my life.
