That’s an over-exaggeration - the telemetry in Audacity is literally just opt-in error reporting, and the server is self-hosted by the developer. Source

This is a stupid question, but is this a port of the actual missions from C&C/Red Alert, or just inspired by them?

I’ve looked around malware link scrapers (ex. URLhaus) before, and I recall seeing that a large portion of the malware links were hosted on Discord, especially trojans. Although it will break a lot of legitimate shared files, I respect them for fixing this security issue

Nice, that’s exactly what I’m looking for! Thanks

It’s a shame the UK’s Competitive Markets Authority let this merger go through after all. I can’t wait for the future, when 90% of the most popular games are made by 3 companies

Rutracker has a lot of ISO rips, maybe start there?

Good to see them fix this so quickly, but what’s stopping Microsoft from blocking HWID activations on a GVLK? After all, those keys would normally be activated through a KMS instead of Microsoft, so it’s clearly abnormal behaviour

I swear, we need a version of r/savedyouaclick on Lemmy at some point.

Also, I thought this feature was already released? I’ve been using it for the better half of this year.

It’s pretty decent if you liked Bethesda’s other AAA games. I was actually surprised that there was even some amount of spaceship piloting at all - I just assumed it would be 100% fast travel.

However, the game runs like dogshit - even on my decently mid-range system, it takes 15-30 seconds of loading between menus, and I swear I spent half the time I played waiting for the game to load. I assume that this is meant to take advantage of the Xbox and PS5’s faster memory and DirectStorage, but on PC it’s borderline unplayable

Sure, the Steam Deck is cool, but a Series S can actually be bought in most of the world. Last I checked, Valve only sells it in less than 20 countries

Well, they sort of support Vulkan via a translation layer called MoltenVK. This is how the Dolphin emulator was able to get GameCube games running on M1, for example.

That’s probably the most that Mac users will get, unfortunately - the only games that Apple will care about are the ones exclusive to their Apple Arcade service, which will therefore use the Metal API anyway…

Yeah, except EMPRESS was just complaining that her own torrents got deleted, not that others were unsafe

I’ve heard that it wouldn’t it be possible due to tax laws, but I do wish that you could donate directly to Mozilla Corporation itself. The foundation’s advocacy work is important, but it would also be important to ensure Firefox’s continued development without them having to rely on Google

Yeah, this has nothing to do with technology. It’s a useless article anyway, because it doesn’t seem to actually say what his tweet said…

Oh cool, I haven’t used it in a while. Good to know!

It might be that more Mac users are moving away from Steam as their gaming client - from my experience, it’s very glitchy, and hasn’t been properly updated in years

Considering how fortune mostly contains very out-of-date computer jokes, I highly doubt an actual fortune cookie manufacturer would use its output.

Damm, never thought I’d see a meme with Xavier being still circulated in 2023
