Me šŸ˜¢

I have a critical work app that will not run in wine or with proton.

Iā€™ve even contacted the devs and they suggested trying to run the android version on Linux, but it doesnā€™t work either.

Thatā€™s a cool feature. I doubt the app would offer this as they probably do not want to allow the notifications to be turned off.

Thinking about it more, I like to draw the line there as everything after this generation had some level of internet connectivity. Also PC ports started to become common during this time.

Once the internet got involved i think gaming in general started to get worse with all the dlc, and micro transactions.

So the golden age of gaming, for me, is ps2 and earlier which I like to think of as retro.

I could be wrong, but I think Jellyfin has an option to give something a sort name. So while it would display the Italian name it would be sorted alphabetically by the name you type in.

This is so movies will be sorted in order. Iā€™m not sure if it will work, but please give it a try and let us know.

Iā€™ll add FFVIII since the controls are better on PSX. If I remember correctly they lost the source code. In PC you can only move the character in 4 directions or maybe 8, but on psx they can move in full 360 degrees.

This one needs to be illegal.

Apps that you need push notifications turned on for, but also serve ads.

For example, where I live the company that does riding sharing also does all kinds of deliveries. I get notifications about all kinds of restaurant deals.

The version of Amazon we have sends all kinds of unwanted messages from sellers if you add an item from their shop to your cart. It can be turned off, but it needs to be done one by one manually.

Even the mobile wallet apps that we use here send all kinds of ads.

Like, I need notifications about payments and that is it. Stop giving me full screen popup ads each time I open the app to make a payment. It just slows me down and frustrates me.

For me retro is ps2 gen and earlier.

360 came out when I was in university, so for me, that is jumbled into my adult life.

I have so many working phones that have not received security updates for a long time. It is a shame, as I need a second phone and they are perfectly suitable but I worry about how safe they are to use.

I still have all my old systems even the nes which I first gamed on, technically itā€™s my parents. But they donā€™t game at all so itā€™s really more mine than anyone elseā€™s in the family.

None of the characters were particularly interesting or like able.

I forgot about that. Iā€™m sure thatā€™s how I completed it as a kid.

25 for the bundle is perfect. Each of these games could probably sell for 15-20 alone.

Iā€™ll probably pick this up after seeing a review of it on the steam deck.

I played resident evil 3 first and fell in love with the series. God, that wa before ps2 was out. It was so long ago.

I always found this temple to be annoying.

Thanks for your post. Iā€™m nearing the end of dragon quest XI and have been wondering what my next jrpg would be.

I think this is it as it has been on my list for some time. I played a bit of it like 15 years ago, it I have no idea how far I had gotten into the game.

It would be great if we could get a steamdeck that runs one of these arm chips.

I wonder if valve is already experimenting with something like this. Maybe another they will have something like box64 too

I tried, but I could not get into that show.

What show is that from?

What is wrong with him? I think he legit needs psychiatric help.

Maybe the people who get this rich due so at the cost of their mental health. Maybe itā€™s not healthy for a single person to hold so much wealth.

Deep down, does he know what he is doing is wrong? Is his Twitter behavior an expression of some negative feelings he canā€™t cope with?

Well, itā€™s not a brain dead purchase when $20k doesnā€™t even register for you.

Got $500,000,000 in the bank? Who cares?

You family has billions and you just have an unlimited alllowance. Who cares.

Thatā€™s who this is for.

With that being said, Apple did it for one year and I think it was just a marketing stunt. Everyone talked about it and now people know what an Apple Watch is.

Iā€™d love for someone to just once elaborate on this.

What does it mean to work harder? More hours? Work harder at my current job?

Most people would not be allowed to work at their job for more hours due to overtime limits. Some jobs wonā€™t let people work a second job.

If I work harder at my current job, whatā€™s going to happen? Will they be grateful and just pay me more or will they create a position to promote me?

I donā€™t get what that means.

My only concern is that people are going to think that he only stayed playing civ all night because itā€™s exciting to do something. But thatā€™s not the case.

Innocent people are going to try this game and keep saying ā€œone more turnā€.

I loath this site. Itā€™s rarely loads well and the images never load for me. And itā€™s always so slow. Itā€™s probably because I have an adblocker.

He better get used to not making moneyā€¦

But who am I kidding gamers have 0 impulse control.

Either way I have enough retro games to last me a lifetime.

He ate a manā€™s brains and eye balls.

Eww gross.

He went to subway after eating the manā€™s body parts.

EWWWWW! GROSS!

For me, apps do not get to notify me unless itā€™s time sensitive.

The problem is when my food delivery app, or LinkedIn sends me ads when I just want messages.

Itā€™s annoying to not be able to only receive messages.

For me itā€™s also the measles thing currently going on

Itā€™s so weird that these consoles are in the latter stages of their life. Was it just this generation that was weird or am I just getting old?

It seems that they are not as popular as the Xbox one and ps4 were. Maybe I just checked out of modern gaming.

My wife finally are in a point where we can afford to have children, but we are kinda getting a bit old to have children. So we are also choosing the dual income no children life style,

But a big part of that is our age and how long it took to get to a comfortable place financially.

Now we want to focus on saving for a house and retirement.

You can use Steamā€™s proton even on non Steam games. It might work better than wine.

I live in a 3rd world country and I can promise you that this is going to lead to a large percentage of the population using an insecure version of Windows 10 or just using mobile devices.

I doubt many people here will switch to Linux, but I can only hope. Maybe businesses will do that instead of buying new hardware. Recently, I saw a shop using Banana Pis as their checkout terminal.

I wouldnā€™t really call it a hacker tool any more than you would call a hammer a thieves tool.

It just accesses the data that stored in an unencrypted format on the computers hard drive.

If someone had remote access to your computer they could use this, but I imagine they could also use the official tool too.

Since the data is stored in an unencrypted fashion, a hacker who had remote access would be better served running some script that will just transfer all this data to their offsite server and could be accomplished pretty easily.

I guess what I want to really say is that calling it a ā€œhacker toolā€ is misleading.

Sorry to be that guy, but Iā€™m trying to promote a community here.

The title should ask, ā€œWhy were Ronald Reagan and Nancyā€¦ā€

This is because the subject, Ronald Reagan and Nancy Reagan, is more than 1 person.

If anyone wants to learn English Iā€™m moderating lemmy.ml/c/englishlearning

Iā€™m happy to answer any questions.

There is no way they donā€™t offer extended support for Windows 10. Many PCs canā€™t get to windows 11. Imagine all the malware infected machines that will be out there.

Itā€™s like we are entering an economy where you are either rich and can afford basic things like a car and house or you are poor and feel like you are being kept out of this world.

I think isolating is not a good move. I think many people on Lemmy are here to get away from centralization.

I stopped using beehaw about a month ago as too many servers were defederated.

I know beehaw has a great community, but being closed off is not appealing to me and I imagine itā€™s not appealing to many others as well.

Iā€™d argue getting doom to run is a good way to demonstrate understanding of the tech.

My uncle is worried that us vaccinated people are going to spread something to him. Like something about the vaccine makes you dangerous.

I donā€™t know I donā€™t even care to be honest.
