Other me's:@Auster | @Auster1 | @Auster(I have other alts, but if a profile claims to be me, doubt it)

  • "Game preservation only works if people care" As GOG doubles down on its commitment to saving old games, it's asking players "who give a s**t" to support its crusade

    Jump

  • Thanks. The instance was having issues with the media hosting platform so it's in the middle of changing it, but the images should be back in a few days according to the announcement.

  • Final Fantasy VII now also added to GOG's catalogue

    Jump

  • Played it iirc around 2019. Didn't find it to be all that much, but it has a consistent and full story, surely fun enough (and some times enough is more than enough 👌)

    Also I hope the New Threat mod works with this version. Been meaning to continue for a few years now but life happens

  • Amazon expected this co-op party game to draw in 100,000+ active players, but it hit an all-time peak of just 320 on Steam and now it's closing for good just 6 months after it launched

    Jump

  • "this co-op party game": King of Meat

  • Haven't read the article, but the give a shit part is likely from here, a reference to a reference:

  • How likely do you guys think it is now that Reddit might copy Discord and introduce mandatory face/ID checks for accessing NSFW content globally?

    Jump

  • I have a very slight feeling Reddit's working for China, and not for the US. If I'm right, then chances only grow since the pushes for identity verification gained traction around last September.

  • Misskey instance?

    Jump

  • For Misskey-powered instances, there's also Nijimiss.moe from the bigger ones I know about. It appears to either house or federate a lot of Japanese users too, from what I could observe. And dunno your Mbin instance, but on mine, I can follow Misskey.io and Nijimiss.moe users just fine, just taking a little while to populate the /all page (but surely happening since Japanese folks seem to interact between one another a lot), and at worse on federation to Mbin with some formatting issues for posts since Misskey feels a bit like its own thing.

    But alas, on the flagship (?) instance, I know a guy that was able to create an account when he/she lived for a while in Japan, and when the person went to another country, access to the site remained.

  • Most user friendly peertube instance for beginners?

    Jump

  • Per-instance rules, communities, cultures, technical limits, etc., could make it less friendly, which I presume is what the OP is asking about.

  • DeGoogle for School

    Jump

  • About formatting concerns, since you're on Lemmy, before posting, there's a view button near the bottom of the post form. Main reason I return to my Lemmy alt. =)

    About your issue, not an US citizen myself so can't check details as easily, but considering what I can tell from the outside, I'd suggest first seeing if laws for your specific town, county or state, or even the federal ones, make Google adoption opt-in or opt-out. That also could require confirming with an attorney to be safe, which would likely cost money.

  • Game recommendation request: Offline "MMORPGs"

    Jump

  • Apparently FFXII and FFXIV 1.0 both are heavily inspired on the FFXI formula, so perhaps FFXII is the closest to what the OP is asking.

  • What headsets are linux gamers using?

    Jump

  • Some cheap JBL cable earphone I bought some 5 years ago, and that in recent months even had an adventure in a centrifuge washing machine. It's working pretty well, barely picking any background noise, and listening is not migraine-inducing despite imo lacking a strong bass channel.

  • LA County sues Roblox, says the platform helps predators target kids – Morning Overview

    Jump

  • The problem, however, is that such reasoning of the State taking the initiative happens too frequently in several parts of the world, e.g. for ID scans that have been gaining traction since October from what I can gather. As when a coincidence happens too often, chances are it isn't a coincidence, such news rise a red flag to me.

  • LA County sues Roblox, says the platform helps predators target kids – Morning Overview

    Jump

  • Again "think of the children". Besides how many laws and "pragmatic precedents" use that as an excuse, shouldn't the parents moderate what their children do online, and not the State?

  • Does anyone else feel unsatisfied with their installs being perfectly balanced and "optimized" - Weltschmerz

    Jump

  • If yours feel like a stable/balanced setup, maybe find another project? From my experience, without majorly reconfiguring the machine, virtual machines, RSS and making your own programs can be rather time-consuming, though also carrying a challenge you may be lacking as is now.

  • How to automatically disable ipv6 at boot

    Jump

  • IP leak means your real IP is exposed even with VPN on.

  • AMD GPU Prices Fall in Japan. Turns Out There Is a Limit to What People Will Pay

    Jump

  • As an analyst from my country proposes, depending on how the situation is dealt with, the next step would be a "stag-inflation", when inflation freezes for a while. Then, if the issue is left to grow, there are cases of deflation, but because people are in full contingency. And as manufactures lose notion of cost and demand, they stop producing as much, shrinking the already shrinking stocks, and making people go on a rush to stock up, resulting in hyper-inflation.

    But I suspect this issue is just a cover up for the world's general impoverishment/inflation from the past few decades, AIs being an useful scapegoat.

  • Brazil mentioned!

    (Also jokes aside, makes sharing with my fellow countrymen easier)

    Jump

  • You can even predict more or less how much you're going to spend by your expenses history, but configuring the formula for that on a spreadsheet, or at least figuring it out, is a major pain. But once done, helps a lot. =D

  • Dunno official budget, but miserable school system + potential ADHD or autism + some a bit more expensive hobbies forced me to learn by myself a sufficient amount of budget contingency/management.
