It wasn’t a recorded video. It was a live stream. They must have made it private when it ended.

Wildermyth is a lovely combination of storytelling and xcom-style combat, with a genealogy system and chances for your heroes (and their descendants) to reappear in future games.

I think that was sometimes true in the past, but they ended that practice years ago.

This one offers daily trading cards for finishing a discovery queue, and stickers for following a “browse by category” link on the main page and clicking the “claim” button.

Looks like the site is overloaded at the moment. Some things are not working quite right.

I imagine he wants to avoid dependence on fuel suppliers, or pollution.

Gesundheit!

Lemmy tip: Don’t indent your paragraphs.

We’re writing in Markdown here, so 4+ spaces at the beginning of a line triggers code formatting. It breaks line wrapping, so many readers are forced into a lot of horizontal scrolling back and forth if they want to read your text. It sometimes also breaks color schemes, burning dark-mode readers’ eyes with blocks of bright white.

Back to your request…

Your description reminds me of bits of Cyberpunk 2077 and Overwatch, but I don’t think it’s either of those. It doesn’t exactly match any games I can think of right now. Good luck. :)

That explanation is fair enough but the headline is red meat the the EV disinformation brigade.

It’s funny how words affect people differently.

Not long ago, I posted a short, precisely-stated comment mentioning an observed fact that I had verified with a relevant authority. When I later checked in, I was surprised to find someone accusing me of spreading misinformation, and my comment removed by a moderator. It was clear that my accuser had badly misinterpreted my words. He refused to admit it or accept clarification. (And the mod had already acted, rashly.)

I re-checked what I had written about twenty times over the course of the day. There was nothing there to support the accusation. My best guess is that my phrasing or the subject matter might have touched on rough emotions from a bad experience, leading him to see what he expected to see instead of what I wrote, and triggering attack mode.

Communicating well really is complicated. It takes work on both sides, and can quickly turn into a bad time if it goes off the rails.

Because of this, I’ve been making an effort to read (and re-read) charitably, especially with people I don’t know well.

From the article:

In an EV era, tires are becoming the greatest emitters of particulate matter

The point being that electric drops tailpipe emissions to zero, making tires the next target for reducing emissions.

Nonsense.

Nothing can be lost that wasn’t had in the first place.

Do you know why both hid_sony and hid_playstation are loaded? Only one is needed. The latter replaces the former, IIRC.

It loads automatically on my system once I power up the (already paired) DS4. You did pair yours with your computer, right?

I also wonder if any of the device names in your bluetooth list would be more friendly if you installed the steam-devices package.

John Mashey wrote about this nearly 30 years ago. This Usenet thread is worth a read.

I think that kernel version should handle it, as long as the hid-sony or hid-playstation module is being loaded. (Some 6.7 and early 6.8 kernels had a relevant bug, though.)

It’s hard to say regarding the bluetooth adapter. The branding and price don’t matter; my cheap old no-name dongle worked great. It’s really about whether the parts used inside happen to play well with the other device.

Another thought: Is it possible you have the old version of the DS4, rather than the DS4 v2? If I remember correctly, the light bar is visible through the touchpad only on the v2.

That is strange. It works great for me. All I had to do was pair it.

I have read that some computers have bluetooth modules that don’t play well with it, though. Maybe you have one of those, or an old kernel?

ds4linux exists, but is unnecessary in most common cases.

Reproducing is not stealing. Not in the dictionary sense. Not in the legal sense. Not at all.

I don’t condone selling stuff without the rights, but manipulative language like that has no place in journalism. It’s pure propaganda pushed by parasitic corporations, and it undermines our collective ability to discuss and reason about the issues.

“…third place.”

It’s a time-honored tradition among dictionary publishers.

I wonder what scam he has in mind to gain money or power through this, at the expense of everyone else in the country.
