  • I see the joke in it now, but its a bit of a stretch of the definition imo :D

    A little like the tolerance paradox. I can't tolerate intolerance - this is necessary for tolerance to survive

    Edit: butchered the sentence a bit

    Trackmania / Ubisoft instant-script fails

    ****Hey! My gf wanted to try out Trackmania since I've been getting into it. However we can't get it to run on her steam deck at all.

    For reference here's how I did it on my deck: Install trackmania from the store. On first launch it briefly says "running instant script: ubisoft connect" or similar. Then Ubi starts, i logged in, done. Now anytime I launch TM, ubi pops up briefly, takes care of things and runs the game.

    However, on her deck, the instant script runs, then she's greeted with an old-school windows error box from TM informing her that it needs Ubi connect.

    We've tried all kinds of trickey like installing Ubi as a non steam app, changing proton versions, changing the proton context, reinstalling, deleting compat data for a clean slate...

    Most guides online are old enough to not mention the instant script.

    If anyone has an idea of what might be going on, I'd greatly appreciate any pointers.

  • Only works for one smart ass.

    jeez man, I didn't know the looks of strangers were such an important topic to you.
    Almost like there's subjectivity at play. Imo their noses look very similar, dad's is just longer and bigger which is normal with age.
    The eyes are very clearly similar to me but maybe your perception tells you otherwise.

    Maybe take a breather, drink a glass of water and consider whether this topic is important enough to scream at anonymous strangers on the internet.

  • Populism.

    They managed to make low income people across the continent west vote directly against their own interests.

    Because "immigrants". With such incredible promises as "banning illegal immigration".

    Its a shitshow and I'm losing hope that we an recover in the next decade

  • Whats implied and obvious is that bluetooth less often gets messed up. Since there isn't a flimsy connector sticking out.

    Don't get me wrong, I do prefer wired headphones at home and in the office, but I'm done with broken cables on the go.

    If i really feel the need, a usb-c to 3.5 sits in my overears' headphone case.

    Decentralized VPNs - clueless edition

    EDIT: sorry for the rambly post here's a quick clarification I wanted a decentralized/open source variant of something like NordVPN etc.

    Crypto-based options I found: Sentinel, Mysterium , Orchid All of those are on the Blockchain and use their own coins as a payment system, both to pay usage fees and to pay out node-hosts. Not sure if that's my jam.


    I tried to use the search and came up short - so point me elsewhere if there's already a discussion.

    Let me preface this by saying I'm pretty green when it comes to a lot of the deeper aspects of FOSS privacy tools. Meaning that i'm probably more clueless about this topic than I realise.

    Had a bit of a shower thought moment earlier and googled if decentralized VPNs are an option for the occasional torrent.
    Did a bit of a google and came up with a couple of options, seemingly all tied into a blockchain with their own coin for payments - either using or hosting a node.

    I'm a bit allergic to cryptobros and their blockch

    Metal @lemmy.world

    What's currently the "biggest" metal band?

    Basically Title.

    Been to Wacken recently and a friend and I were discussing what could be seen as the biggest name in metal currently.
    Since we're "old", we could only come up with yesteryears titans.

    Are there any more recent names that currently dominate the industry? Get played on day to day radio like our childhood bands did?
