Spain - https://www.listarobinson.es

This is all spanish (as in castilian) media. The torrents are sparse and usually really badly encoded, I'm talking stuff like AVI codec in media produced in 2024.

There's a better chance if you try to find it in the open with those sketchy links you mention or you are "lucky enough" to get invited to a Telegram group that has it uploaded to the platform, severed in hundreds of multipart files.

I've seen more Spanish people using the outdated Ed2K protocol through a/eMule rather than torrents even, it's so depressing.

This relates closely to the EU Initiative from https://www.stopkillinggames.com/

I'd like to see the people that are for kernel-level anticheat running in their PCs 24/7 now.

Vanguard doesn't even let you play the game unless the anticheat has been active since boot afaik.

Every cybersec and even anyone minimally tech-savvy was saying this was a bad idea and what do you know, now we have objective evidence it is in fact a terrible, terrible idea.

I think you're right when saying "day-mun" for daemon as my language, Basque, uses the term "daimon" when referring to service daemons in software engineering, which is taken from the pronunciation in English.

As even your Wikipedia article mentions, even though the east of Ukraine hasn't always been in the same page politically, this separatist movement is fairly new and probably fueled by Russia since at least the 2010s and exploded after the Euromaidan protests .

You can see it by checking the Ukrainian Referendum of Independence of 1991.

Only 12-13% in those oblasts voted no, compared to the whopping 42% from Crimea, which is understandable because it was originally Russian territory ceded to the Ukranian SSR by Nikita Khrushchev as a gesture of goodwill (not that it justifies the 2014 annexation it suffered by Russia).

Even though the vote was about leaving the USSR, we can't separate the Russian question completely from it, and it was an important issue during the referendum.

If you want better compatibility with Microsoft Office files, you could use WPS Office. It has given me better results overall than OnlyOffice and far better than LibreOffice.

Not dissing the other suites, I like LibreOffice for daily use but there's nothing I can do about M$ Office templates bugging out because they don't follow their own OOXML implementation properly.

Hi! To enable HDR in most games you will need to set your game in fullscreen. Windowed or Borderless won't allow you to use HDR functionality.

You'll also need to use the DXVK_HDR=1 %command% startup variable in steam to enable HDR in any Proton game. Proton 8 and 9 should support HDR without issuez although there are some games that might need additional configuration.

If you use an NVIDIA card, you might need to enable NVAPI with DXVK_ENABLE_NVAPI=1

Happy gaming! :D

After years of using linux distros and settling on an arch based distro for my daily use, I switched jobs and they allowed me to have "linux" as my laptop OS.

They put Ubuntu 22.04 LTS on the laptop. Admittedly I hadn't used it for a few years, maybe 18.04 outside of server use cases maybe.

The experience is horrible. It throws errors about Ubuntu, about Visual Studio Code or any program every hour, without those programs having any trouble whatsoever to function.

It reminds me so much of Windows, and even though I prefer it over that system, I can't shake the feeling I'm serving the OS, rather than the other way around, just like in Windows.

And don't even get me started on Snaps over DEB packages. Had never tried them before and I can say with confidence the hatred is deserved. Code didn't even start up in the snap version and Firefox was so slow and laggy I was thinking the laptop was broken somehow.

Ding ding ding!

Although Gradle is not much better imo...

So after some trial and error I found out it's somehow the official Steam Dock. It breaks family sharing on shutdown, reboot and suspension.

The solution seems to be unplugging the Dock whenever any reboot, shutdown or suspension action is going to be done and replug it only when the Deck is active and signed in.

Really weird bug. I didn't even think the Dock could be an issue in this regard.

The use of ChatGPT is very noticeable in this reply and it is hallucinating a lot.
