But it’s not, they’re not doing actual piracy there, they’re talking about it, and that’s very much not illegal

Just tried to create an account on fedia.io, which is the biggest of the mbin instances (at just about a bit above 4K users, so not THAT much), and it just could NOT take the registration, all i get is “429 Too Many Requests”, after multiple tries. I suspect that says the instance is woefully underpowered for the traffic it’s handling

But that’s what the marketers are selling, “this will replace a lot of workers!” and it just cannot

This is by no means a vital service, but Imgur. Not the image hosting part itself, although the multiple self-hosted alternatives available are mostly aimed at photographs and surprisingly very few if any to memes and reactions for chats, forums and social media. On the other hand, the particular use case of sharing memes and meme dumps is not being fulfilled by anything else at the moment. Go to Imgur even on it’s current sorry decayed state and at any time you’ll find multiple people sharing image galleries, usually of up to 50 memes at a time, sometimes more. Lemmy, Mastodon and Discord servers try to fill that gap but right now they can’t.

Persistent apps running in the background. One constant complaint many have is background apps that should be left alone killed by battery-saving stuff. One of the ways to prevent this from happening that devs have used is persistent notifications. Killing this option fucks up lots of apps that are supposed to run in the background. I guess i’ll stay away from Android 14 for now.

That’s because Steam/Proton has mostly solved this (with some qualified notorious exceptions), which used to be a real problem even just a few years ago, but not remotely as much these days; the meme is mostly outdated by now, I’ve lived both cases and it used to be a pain but these days? people are spoiled by Valve and many have never lived the OP situation (which is great news!)

Honestly Steam and Proton have solved like 90% or more of this issue, i was in this spot in the past for a long, long time, but Steam has made this work almost seamlessly for a great number of games

And then i got the Steam Deck and this went into overdrive

At this point i feel like Linux is a realistic option for a gamer, qualified of course (anti-cheat tech tends to break things, plus there’s a few problematic ones), but we are at the point where you can buy an AAA title and be relatively confident it will run on Linux (check first though)

I hope this breaks the games on Deck so that people notice

Correct!

VPNs were never intended to make you anonymous, if you expected a VPN to make you anonymous you were very mistaken

Tangential partial offtopic aside: Unless i’m misunderstanding, you’re setting this up behind your home router and allowing it on your various devices using a VPN. Am i right? Any details, or even better, guides, on how to replicate this setup? I guess the DNS records on Leng are to be able to call services inside your home LAN by name instead of IPs, which is a nice quality of life upgrade.

Most did, but there’s always people like OP 😅

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain

Troy Hunt, the Have I Been Pwned person, has a very informative analysis of the breach that was not a breach, turns out nothing actually “leaked” from Linkedin, it’s a mix of scrapped and generated stuff

Regardless of the accuracy of this (i am not very convinced of it’s universality) I am mostly pleased by the source of the graph, AellaGirl is quite an interesting person

Edit: Reading the source link acknowledges the weakness of it and that it’s mostly memetic
