Cars can’t actually drive down this road anymore. The only vehicle traffic allowed through this area is busses turning around and taking their breaks at the end of the line.

I guess you can technically access parts of this road through the alley way but there are definitely bollards up at the Broadway end and the other end is right turn only for busses. This area is not high vehicle traffic

“Anti-piracy technologies is to the benefit of the game publishers, [but also] is of benefit to the players in that it protects the [publisher’s] investment and it means the publishers can then invest in the next game”

The only entity benefiting in this scenario is Denuvo, while the client clutches their pearls to protect a misguided concept of the elusive lost sale. Denuvo rakes in cash in the name of copy protection, but the truth is most acts of piracy are driven by a lack of means to obtain the product or a desire to demo the product.

Sure it’s their right to protect it but I don’t think there’s any accurate way to actually measure the impact of games with and without such aggressive copy protection.

Only reason I installed it is for it’s ability to use GitHub releases as a source and notify me if there are updates. As far as I’m aware you have to use f-droid repositories with f-droid – but it’s been a long time since I had f-droid installed.

GitHub + obtabium for automatic updates

Install Lutris.

Use the battle net install helper for Lutris.

Launch battle net.

Profit.

It’s like one extra step (install Lutris) compared to Windows. Using Linux doesn’t have to be some archaic mystery and the proliferation of the steam deck is doing wonders at improving the ease of use of all this stuff.

Spoiler alert: your individual choices don’t matter. Drastic and sweeping changes need to be made at the corporate/supply chain level if we have any hope of surviving this.

So… We’re fucked.

This really only affects legitimate users.

Legitimate users are usually the ones who suffer most for DRM

Unregistered torrents (from upgrades to season packs or nuked releases) and the occasional upgrade paths that don’t always work.

My own upgrade paths tend to pull in some versions which get made redundant so every so often, just ensuring there’s no multiple copies as a result of said upgrades

The article seems to indicate he died of fentanyl but was more of a cocaine user that had maybe relapsed. It sounds like he suffered the exact fate he was trying to prevent others from, which is just depressing.

I do wonder what his business strategy was to ensure the drugs he was supplying was safe, but perhaps it was too costly or not convenient enough to abide in a moment of desperation.

Diablo 3/4 is not split screen on PC

Whole-heartedly agree on the quote and it stuck out to me even before coming to the comments here. Redhat might not like that people are repacking “their” software, but the spirit of GPL software is that you can charge for it but folks can also go through the trouble of building it themselves should they not want to go that route and are able to support/debug/maintain the software themselves on their own hardware.

If they don’t think the clauses of GPL are fair, then they should probably stop distributing Linux entirely because their entire business model is founded off of profiting off the work of other open source contributions.

Simply rebuilding code, without adding value or changing it in any way, represents a real threat to open source companies everywhere.

One could argue Redhat already does this on packages they have not improved or submitted contributions for.

Yeah, take a look at my profile from the perspective of lemmy.world:

You can use sonarr and radarr without indexers. There’s even built-in support for major trackers without need for additional apps like Prowlarr.

That said, I use autobrr to handle the monitoring of releases and let the other apps filter out what they actually want

Yep! Docked to the steam deck dock.

It’s annoying that so much of my search results rely on community discussions from reddit. I’ve pretty much ditched the site entirely and am getting pretty comfy here, but a lot of historical discussions on reddit simply can’t be replaced and likely never will be.

I mean, it’s not hard to make a browser screenshot say whatever you want it to say.

I had more difficulty remembering the markdown image syntax than I did spoofing your comment

Moonlight on the deck (via flatpak), Sunshine on the PC

I had that issue with the built-in streaming recently too. Sunshine has been flawless for me (though I did have to patch my nvidia video driver to overcome the nvFbc limitations in consumer cards)

It looks like a kbin feature, not sure it exposes Lemmy activity

I personally used Lutris:

Grab the battle.net installer from the lutris website, optionally extend it with the D4 installer (it just creates a second shortcut using the same battle.net install you just did).

Once bnet is installed, you can add Lutris games as shortcuts in steam (you may need to do it from desktop mode without steam running) by right clicking on games and clicking add to steam.

From there you just need to install D4 in the bnet client and away you go.

They also learned nothing from a previous experience where the sub lost contact and got lost for hours. There were discussions of adding a beacon to the sub but that clearly never happened.

I guess the CEO never expected cutting corners would directly affect his life.
