So we’re calling legitimate criticism review bombing now?

Yes with an emulator. Look up dolphin for the gamecube version or torzu for switch. Dolphin + gamecube will be easier to run if your laptop isn’t very powerful

Right. I can watch a restream of 15+ tiktok lives in the middle of the action, why would I watch fox news push narratives for 55min an hour, with a 5min clip of a burning car or someone spraying graffiti

Put it in a laptop

Yep no DNS blocker will stop fullscreen local scripts from running. This shit is why forums and the legacy web are dead

I’ve seen many a forum in my day, but I clicked the X before I saw one at that dogshit URL

I’d have switched years ago if I could get the economy of scale that a restaurant does

Downvoting for “they’re, there, their” gore, mark it NSFL next time sheesh

That’s amazing but I was immediately wondering why the big bunny was robbing the smaller ones

Moral members of society have an inherent obligation to be activists, for as long as marginalized groups exist.

That doesn’t mean you have to be ‘out’, but if you’re standing by and watching your fellow humans be marginalized when you could be offering help, that is wholly immoral, and frankly you don’t deserve the safety that you are enjoying when you won’t seek it for your fellow people.

Windows be like

No tilt?

Maybe a knee high fence. It will slow the most basic and casual botting, and maybe eliminate some of that very very basic ROI, but it won’t do anything to stop the real professionals.

We see countless examples in games. It’s an arms race and all you can do is mitigation. As long as there’s something to be gained from botting, they’ll exist. It’s only a matter how much.

Nothing, it’s just additional friction and cost to create them

Neither is the steam deck user base, or would-be Linux converts. What’s your point?

I haven’t run into any limitations of the file system and I hardly even know what pacman is. And I haven’t felt ‘controlled’ by Valve, certainly not to the extent of a console or even Windows/Mac. I can sudo whatever I want. I’m sure you have a use case, but I’m still just not seeing it.

Are their proton versions just proton GE? To what extent does it actually run better?

More than you think, apparently. I go into desktop mode nearly every time I use it, whether to install mods, non-steam games, emulators, streaming services, web browser, decky loader, etc. knowing it was open like a PC vs a closed off console was 90% of the reason I got one.

Besides that, is using bash really the metric for Linux user? I did that in Windows. It’s fine if people are using the GUI. This is just weirdly gatekeepy

The crossover of PC power users and steam deck owners is going to be relatively high compared to a traditional console, which is exactly the demographic that would be persuaded to Linux via the deck. I speak from experience

People type their credit cards into online stores all the time.

Sure, under the assumption that it’s not being stored without permission, or securely with permission. People are and should be very cautious about what sites you directly submit your card info to, and for less popular sites people are more and more opting to use a third party payment processor like apple, amazon, PayPal, etc.

In the US, most restaurants still take your card out of eyesight to be processed, although processing devices at the table is becoming more popular.

One of the most common ways cards get skimmed in person. You should absolutely be wary of this especially if it takes an unusually long time. I’ve been at group dinners where this was commented on. Seems pretty common sense.

I don’t think most people even think about it most of the time in the US because the credit card companies take care of disputes. Europe is definitely way ahead of us on secure payments!

I disagree. This is a common point of concern in my experience with customer facing roles, and anecdotally in my social life. When I worked for a major cell provider, for example, we sent a digital form to the customer so that we didn’t have to collect card info over the phone at all. In the event that we did as a fallback, customers were very wary of this across the board.

I’ve only seen those in movies, and I haven’t even had an embossed card in years. but most people (rightfully so) would refuse having their card info written anywhere these days. Things have really changed
