What is the appeal of Monster Hunter games? (sh.itjust.works)

While researching good PSP games to play I found many posts about Monster Hunter Freedom Unite and other Monster Hunter games. They are beloved by the community but after doing some reading/watching it's not clear to me what the appeal is. I would appreciate if someone could tell what the goal is and what you love about the game. Apparently they are very long games (I think I read 100 hours or something along those lines) which is really great if I can get into a single game for that long. Thank you!

COD Mobile permissions question by octoffset in c/androidgamers@lemmy.world

I think other games do that within their own available storage, no need to ask for anything outside. Have you installed it recently, does it still ask for storage permissions?

COD Mobile permissions question (sh.itjust.works)

Anyone playing COD: Mobile on Android? I was wondering whether you still need to grant storage permissions to play the game at all. I'm hoping that this is because of supporting older Android SDKs and not needed any more. Thanks for your help.

I found this gem and wanted to share it with you. Reaper being available for Linux is a pretty great thing but generally I didn't find many audio plugins being made available for Linux, especially plugins that try to recreate vintage hardware.

Anyway, here's a project that has a lot of those being written directly for Reaper using its DSP language and I can confirm they work on Linux.

The dev has a YT channel where he shares progress: https://www.youtube.com/@johnmatthews8435

Happy music making!

Do you have security concerns with cheap mechanical keyboards (sh.itjust.works)

Yo everyone! I have questions about using cheap and generic mechanical keyboards. For example the Royal Kludge RK61 which has wired, Bluetooth and 2.4GHz connections. My host will be Linux machines. Do you see any security issues with using keyboards like that or were there any incidents of such devices being malicious?

Another concern might be the 2.4GHz USB that's included. Assuming it's not doing anything malicious is the connection encrypted or would you always instead use wired or Bluetooth? Thanks for any answers!
