It’s even funnier that no, I didn’t.

But, if you really want to compare the artistic value of a screenshot of a game, one is equivalent to going out in the world with a camera and composing a photo of your natural surroundings, while the other is the equivalent of typing “anime girl” into google images and saving one of them.

Maybe you think they’re lame because those are screenshots of an actual game being rendered in realtime, and not just a picture someone drew for a visual novel with some text over it.

I’m having trouble digging it up, but the person who created Steamspy a number of years ago, before privacy laws made public profiles opt-in and interfered with its ability to collect data, found that the majority of Steam accounts only had a single game in their libraries.

A lot of those are going to be alts people made to evade game/server bans or smurf.

I may or may not have made 10 accounts that only had Garry’s Mod on them circa 2010.

A lack of analog controls is definitely an issue. Having digital buttons on keys that are either 100% on or off loses a ton of fine control.

Playing GTA and need to make a slight left while driving? On a gamepad you just slightly tilt the stick left to make a smooth turn. On keyboard you have to do a bunch of short little taps on A (and D when you inevitably oversteer) to stop yourself from jerking the wheel left.

I remember really wanting a Logitech G13 when they came out but I could never justify spending the money on one.

They’re already ignoring robots.txt, so I’m not sure why anyone would think they won’t just ignore this too. All they have to do is get a new IP and change their useragent.

Avoid local retail in favor of what, a website? If you’re concerned about the data mining potential of this robot rolling around a strip mall then you should avoid the internet at all costs.

What you’re describing completely defeats the purpose of the inspections (trying to catch someone in the act of hacking them, somehow) and they were scheduled. Also, you have only replied to me on this post.

You seem very confused.

When did I say anything about anyone having sex? What?

They’re doing visual inspections of rooms because they don’t trust the scary hacker people in them. What do you think telling them you’re in the room is going to accomplish?

Did you even read the article?

I mean sure if you wedge the door or something, but then you’re just going to get kicked out.

Every hotel with those has a tool they can use to easily unlatch that lock.

Another lemmy echo chamber… It’s pointless to show another kind of opinion.

Sounds like you maybe just have a habit of entering conversations on topics you don’t know much about (and in this case self-admittedly don’t even care about), so you get a lot of people who are more informed and do care expressing their disagreement with you?

Have you considered just not doing that?

If you’re going to be looking at network requests on this granular of a level you should use something like OpenSnitch so you can be sure what is actually generating them.

This is already implemented on a lot of the settings pages on 11.

Edit: just wanted to add I don’t think well. I use it at work.

No one is pretending anything, and no one is claiming these laws aren’t specifically targeting trans people, of course they are. What they are claiming is that the same law would apply to what is being depicted in the photo, which is true.

There’s no EULA just like there’s no NDA. That pop up and a one sentence post about not sharing info about the game on the forum is all there is.

There is no NDA for Deadlock, and anyone in it can invite anyone they want, as often as they want. It’s not like Valve has no idea how to privately test their game. I think they made these decisions deliberately.

lol I would open every port on my router and route them all to wireguard before I would ever consider doing this

If you’re not completely giving up on privacy I would avoid cloudflare. I just run an always-on wireguard tunnel that routes back to my home network from my wife’s and my phones, and that kills like 3 birds with one stone (phone traffic is encrypted and hidden from my carrier, home server is accessible, and ads are blocked via DNS).

I use notifications in Thunder and I’ve had no issues. I haven’t compared the difference or anything, but when I’ve happened to check battery usage it’s always been a reasonable amount for how much I’ve used it that day. It does generate a decent amount of network traffic since it’s regularly checking with you instance for it, and that traffic is generated for each account you have reaching out to each instance. That should be how any FOSS app works though, the alternative would be something like Sync where you pay to have actual pushes sent from their server.
