My QR Code Scanner app can recognize Qr codes in all sizes and from many angles but it won't ever scan the ones without border, like if I'm on dark mode on some websites

So they were trying to patch systems that use GRUB for Windows-only installs? What a load of BS. Why would anybody install GRUB to boot only Windows with that? Or am I overlooking something?

Furthermore, if GRUB has a security issue, they should've contributed a patch at the source instead of patching it themselves somehow. I'm a bit stunned at the audacity of touching unmounted filesystems in an OS patch. Good thing Windows still doesn't include EXT4 and BTRFS drivers because they might start messing with unencrypted Linux system drives at this rate

At the risk of sounding stupid giving a serious answer to a joke question; I don't know the details but lemmy might not work, because the 3DS doesn't support the ciphers lemmy uses. Other sites might work, because they support older ciphers for backwards compatibility. A reason why lemmy might not want to support those is, that it could give attackers an opportunity to "hijack" your login because they can decrypt what you're sending to lemmy. If you just wanna browse lemmy anonymously tho, you should be able to do that, yes

I guess it's next Saturday then. Also rip for having to get up that early on a weekend

Is Helldiver's anti cheat that bad too? am I at least a little better off running the game through Proton on Linux or am I just providing a compatibility layer to a rootkit?

Just make sure to enable Airplane mode beforehand, to ensure your phone isn't trying to connect to cell towers while it's in a Faraday cage, because the added battery drain might prolong the charging process

I had similar stories getting Wireless Networking to work on some devices before. Good thing is, there are drivers for most, if not all, default hardware interfaces directly in the kernel nowadays and if a device has any sort of popularity it will be supported before long if it isn't out of the box.

If I were American this would be my absolute priority too. I don't like driving too much but love being able to get everywhere I want to by train. I don't even own a car.

I don't think it's that sad. It would be if it were brown

The headline makes it seem way more clear than the issue actually is. As for me, I took issue with the bill potentially preventing more green energy projects which we are severely lacking, aside from hydro. Though I am very unhappy with the argument that we need to not block economic development since I am all for regulations in that sector, just not sweeping ones.

Yes, presumably on hardware that's just a bit too old or rare. Might be unlucky as Linux compatibility isn't high up on OEMs lists

I wonder if I can make my existing Thumbleweed installation a Slowroll one instead, without borking up everything

The war of the dark patterns is waging on...

I did as instructed and will find out if it was a mistake or not but so far it seems okay. But I guess switching bak is just as easy as swapping repos

What makes you say that? I'm genuinely curious

Same. I think those were streaming sites?

I remember having the same thing happen to me in RS

I think so too

I haven't modded as of yet but I started off with Java and am now a C# Dev and the transition wasn't too hard since most of the same principles apply to both languages. Unity games, that are often written in C# to me are the most moddable ones, especially considering that there's a ecosystem for Unity mods out of the box
