Imagine if this happened to a child, or someone who's got no knowledge about the topic. Your 600$ birthday gift will just rest in piss, because you bought a game someone had cloned previously, and there's 0 way to know about it, until you're already banned

I've really enjoyed this game, but haven't bought the first expansion yet though. This one looks quite cool too!

Just to clarify for everyone else:

  • Nixpkgs is the equivalent of a core distro repository for NixOS. Instead of Core + Extra + Multilib + AUR on Arch, we just have Nixpkgs that has everything
  • A Nix "module" is essentially an app with pre-packaged declarable options. So rather than just installing something as is, you can use its options to declare how you want it installed. I can get firefox, with a package definition for firefox-nightly, and also tell it which addons I want bundled, for example. 99% of the time, this is the preferred way to do things.
  • Home-Manager is a third-party Nix module, that lets you declare stuff in ~/. Very convenient for shells, browsers, and whatever else you want in there. Let’s say you want to have a specific shell, with a specific ssh signing key, and whatever prompt you like. The home-manager daemon would build it for you with a new system evaluation.
  • Stylix is another third-party Nix module. For supported things, it will style your apps with the preferences you've defined. Handy if you want a uniform look and feel for the things you use

They’ve actually done the exact opposite. The lobbying, the import laws, the absence of a foreign export market, and the manufacturing of cars that would never pass safety laws anywhere else, all resulted in the kind of dogshit that Americans have to experience now. Why improve if you’re the only player

They can keep this privacy invading dogshit to themselves

There are some lists that are designed specifically to run with Proton and/or on the Deck, claiming solid 40-60 fps on the Deck, so i'd take a look at what's available in Wabbajack. In my case, i've definitely expected more framerate, but i can't really complain here, because this list is really heavy in most aspects. 100% worth playing though

I've tried several lists over the years. The now defunct Thuldor's Skyrim, and my current Tempus Maledictum list, both experienced the same issue. They get installed and run just fine, but i'm about 60% of the fps short, compared to Windows. I suspect it's because of the vram overhead, and io bottlenecks in wine

The most likely answer is it'll happen when he finally pisses off his own minions enough. He's more likely to die, before he'll see any kind of real punishment for anything.

Now that he's about to rob several millions of people of basic needs being met, maybe things will start moving

We’re talking about a population, where a 1/3lbs burger was rejected for being smaller than the 1/4lbs. But even besides that, the fear-mongering, and the propaganda, have clearly worked

Blatant and unchecked invasion of privacy. This should be not just opt-in, but not even installed by default

[–] dinckelman@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago (3 children)

No one’s stopping you from just downloading the app you want. They changed the default, not eliminated the option to have something elsr

Oh no... people will have less ads, without being bullied into paying... what would the billionaires even do. Don't get avocado and coffee for a bit, i guess
