Dink Smallwood is an old fantasy role playing game. It has a small community that makes mods for it. It’s really dumb but it’s free to play and very short if you have nothing better to do.
howdy

I assume it’s fake because they don’t mention the game itself in the review and I see it copy-pasted in a lot of games. I think it’s a way to farm steam point rewards.
I hate those copy-pasted reviews of an old person having lots of fun playing the game with their kid. It’s told in a way that’s emotional and I thought it was true until I started seeing the exact same review copy-pasted on every other game.
I use vmware and it’s an okay experience for me.
Yeah but I think Linux VM is more convenient for me as I don’t have to switch back and forth between operating systems. I can have both operating systems in front of me at once.
I can keep the VM running while playing games with my friends on the Windows host.
I kind of like having Linux on a VM in Windows. I only use Linux for things like web browsing or writing papers which a VM can do. For gaming, I prefer Windows to avoid any problems I might encounter (like anticheats).
This gives me a near-ideal set up with access to both Linux and Windows. I just wish my Linux VM can do 120+hz and GPU passthrough.
ATM I love the soundtracks of:
I also really like the tunnels feature. It makes self hosting at home easy for those under NAT/CGNAT or whatever it was called.
This Lemmy instance is much harder to maintain due to the fact that I can’t tell what images get uploaded here, which means anyone can use this as a free image host for illegal shit, and the fact that there’s no user list that I can easily see. Moderation tools are nonexistent on here.
0.19.4 provides a way to see uploaded images (although not the best) but this version was only recently released so I can see where the frustration is coming from especially since the CSAM attacks happened nearly a year ago. At the time, I had to make a copy of pictrs, view everything on a file manager, and manually remove those images. People can still upload images without anyone seeing it however.
It also eats up storage like crazy due to the fact that it rapidly caches images from scraped URLs and the few remaining instances that we still federate with.
This was fixed in 0.19.3 (released 7 months ago) where you can disable image “caching”. This has solved storage costs for us together with pictrs’ image processing.
plug in an expensive AI image checker to scan for illegal imagery
It’s unfortunate that we need this. Not everybody has the resources to run fedisafety nor does everyone live in USA where they can use Cloudflare’s CSAM scanner. I think a good way to deal with the issue is to have images that are not public, not be stored (or have no private images at all). This way images can be easily reported.
Overall, I understand the frustration and to some degree I also feel the same but I also limit my expectations considering the nature of the project.

Are server costs just generally cheaper/easier in colonial countries to run or is it purely a money and time thing?
They are cheaper. Locations outside US/EU and very few countries in Asia are sometimes called “exotic” and can be a bit expensive. Lemmy also has this issue where servers that are distant from each other lag behind.
I’ve been using GIMP for so long and I don’t know how to use Photoshop so all the “weird” things about GIMP is normal for me.
Also feel like if I learn Photoshop, I’ll never touch GIMP again. D:
I really like SVT. AOM (or whatever the default was for ffmpeg) was terribly slow. Now I have to try out rav1e.
winget install chocolatey
if I remember
choco install firefox
I don’t think we ever have to touch Edge!
They built a web browser into my start menu.
Why…
Unplug the computer? Got it.
Porkbun asks for your ID now so that might not be “privacy-respecting” but their CS is very helpful from my experience.
I have domains in Netim and Spaceship, and I have no problems with either so far.
This was it. Thanks!
StarCraft. I never played Legacy of the Void campaign and I was told the ending was bad. Would be nice to have a StarCraft III though
