Them socks though

Very thankful for the EFF and the sane voices in EU that opposed this!

I’m quite sure such on the fly price changes are illegal. At least here in Denmark.

Agreed, I would definitely not refer to the first one as self hosting without qualifying further.

There’s a certain determined look in her (?) face. Like she’s preparing for some grand task.

There’s a setting under Power/Battery on my phone to allow an app to run in the background, which makes it so it doesn’t get stopped. @mariah@feddit.rocks maybe that would help you?

Thanks, you made my wife have a laughing fit

According to Steam’s own survey, Linux is still less than 2% of the user base and it doesn’t look like it’s changing much. I don’t know how it has looked historically though but probably not too much different.

Realistically speaking, it’s only a small percentage of people who bought the Steam Deck, and they probably already had a gaming PC, which means they probably had a Windows PC.

So unfortunately, I don’t think Linux gaming is anywhere close.

Convincing analysis. I guess the question is, if we assume this is the case, will the industry ever heal?

Yes that is true - although many games on Steam can play offline so because I download the game, I own it in that fashion. They can’t take that away.

But compare with GOG then. They sell games, you download them with no DRM so you own the download essentially.

rights expire for TV shows and movies far more often than they do for games

Any idea why there is this discrepancy between TV and games?

Why is licensing so easy with games though? It really seems like there’s this arbitrary difference in how the video games and streaming industries work.

What would it take to get a “Steam but TV/movies instead of games”? I feel like if I could see reviews of movies and I could buy them and download them and have them forever and buy them on sale and all that good stuff, it wouldn’t be so bad.

How come none of the streaming services have gone for this model? Steam is swimming in money, surely this method could work?

The judge found that X Corp’s argument exposed a tension between the platform’s desire to control user data while also enjoying the safe harbor of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which allows X to avoid liability for third-party content. If X owned the data, it could perhaps argue it has exclusive rights to control the data, but then it wouldn’t have safe harbor.

“X Corp. wants it both ways: to keep its safe harbors yet exercise a copyright owner’s right to exclude, wresting fees from those who wish to extract and copy X users’ content,” Alsup wrote.

Seems like a sound judgement. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. If Elon Musk wants to own the data, he must also be liable for it.

Maybe look into https://nginxproxymanager.com/ it makes it quite easy to set up.

I think they actually recently stopped doing that, unless the mail comes from a contact.

First time I hear about it too. I prefer usual horizontal tabs but I have several coworkers that use tree style tabs or similar as well. More customization/choice is usually good :)

I mean I get that and I think many people on the Fediverse agrees, but I showed my girlfriend this picture with the red panda background and she’s excited about this feature (and hence Firefox) because of a red panda.

Don’t underestimate or undervalue catering to non-technical people. If we want Firefox to be adopted more widely, we need those people to enjoy the experience.

I mean… she kinda literally did. AFAIK the various colours are caused by genetic differences in various parts of the body. It only happens for female cats for some genetic reasons - I believe MinuteEarth or some channel like that has a video on it.

Working as intended.
