GOG reportedly suffering from staff turnover and poor management: “Current business model is likely running out of steam”

  • experienced this with BG3 on gog while my friends had the steam version, when it launched. Patches on gog were delayed by sometime a week, preventing us to play together.

    • Distro/software for living room/TV PC?

  • I have debian stable with xfce on a 2014 laptop. Increasing the fonts size and using KDE connect for remote on the phone to control the whole thing. Works smoothly for video and internet, just what I need.

    It's tedious when you need to run terminal commands so I have an SSH server running there too.

    For gaming maybe you want to consider moonlight utility, to stream steam games from your gaming PC to your TV PC. It's decent for most games but forget competitive shooters.

    • Which privacy-friendly search engines have advanced search functionalities similar to those Google provides?

  • I like to use https://searx.neocities.org/ It randomises your search across several searx instances. It's not always reliable as some instances are sometimes down or exceed request limit. But retrying often works. Worst case i use mojeek or ddg

    • I have ditched Windows and went with Linux: My Story with Windows, What apps should i get rid of.

  • A bit off topic here, but can I ask which digital store you'd recommend for buying music pls ? I know some of them only give back like 3% of the price to the artist. I wouldnt mind paying extra if it serves the artist. I'm interested in metal music of all kinds, if that's relevant.

    • I need a new phone but I want to do this right

  • Obligatory reply since that's exactly my specs too :P

    • Google is Working on a Recall Feature for ChromeOS - Thurrott.com

  • It's for your safety. Nothing will be collected without your consent. Obedience is freedom. Marry and reproduce.

    • Do you think people would be okay with 'Recall' if Apple did it?

  • You got me at trust

    • Tired of lame search engines? And don't have friends to share your instance?

  • Thanks for the reply. Tried again just now and it works indeed as advertised, sorry for the noise. Maybe because i removed it from my bookmarks (i tried that until i figured there's no shortcuts in mull). Or maybe some cache expired...

    Anyway, it works indeed, thanks !

    • Tired of lame search engines? And don't have friends to share your instance?

  • The bookmark doesn't seem to work for me on mull browser android. I've added the bookmark link as a search engine:

    https://searx.neocities.org/#q=%s&category_general=on

    But when i use it with "test" for example, without quotes, i'm just landing on the default page. The searched text doesn't appear in the searchbox.

    Maybe i missed something ?

    • Google Pixel alternatives?

  • Been using eOS for more than 6months on my old onePlus phone. I'm quite happy with it, but i'm trying to keep my usage as frugal as possible. Their app lounge lets you access the appstore so you could do the same thing as with the pixel phone

    • How privacy on the web is mostly a myth

  • What's your stance on e.foundation eos: https://e.foundation/e-os/

    Its a degoogled android with several privacy focused features like integrated vpn, fake location, tracker counter. Their appstore is aurora+fdroid+pwa

    The os still runs the google microG service though, so i'm not sure how it would do against a proper audit...

    • Google agrees to destroy browsing data collected in Incognito mode

  • I like cookieless, but there's also the history saving part. So... "Forgetful" "Goldfish" "Uprooted"
