My two cent is put the PKGBUILD version itself. That is, if the build script is version 1, then just put that. If the PKGBUILD are updated in the future, bump it up as usual

EAC can work on linux already. Dev just choose not to opt in to it because I think it offer less anticheat protection

Or they are visually impaired and their a11y stack is not there yet

SEA market is not a good one for high end stuff. Until they can get big enough to make budget level THEN they may get into Indonesia officially

It does make me wonder tho, because I know universal power supply exists. But the question is how efficient it is and how much would it save cost by having a single type of optimized manufacturing line compared to 2.

Edit: Hmm, I just realized they could make a variant of the same PCB so I guess the cost saving is moot point

I re-read the post and somehow missed the DRM free part so that is on me. Thanks, yeah I can see why someone would be confused by this. Still I think it has merit because of the possible metadata in addition to the game itself

[–] bitfucker@programming.dev 1 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Oh I know that to run it you only need a single executable. What I'm talking about is more like sometimes there's a registry that is needed somehow by the game (maybe a form of DRM since the installer asks for keys back then without internet). But then again, the last time I tried doing that is when copying data over CD/DVD was still a thing. I have no idea how modern games actually handle the registry now or if they are needed at all because I use steam and if anything is wrong with the game after reinstalling windows, they do some magic in the background to fix it.

I feel like I'm missing something still. From my understanding just copying the file doesn't always work (unless it is an installer). So option 1 would still need more work? That's why my assumption goes to running the game directly off of the NAS

[–] bitfucker@programming.dev 1 points 2 months ago (6 children)

The latency not to mention the speed of NAS would be limited compared to local NVMe. So if you install a game on NAS, it may take a while to load. Of course it also depends on the specific games, but generally it is not a good idea to install heavy programs on a network unless that program is specifically made for network use (think, collabora)

This is how bluesky does it. So as I mentioned earlier, it is the user that opt to be moderated and they can choose their moderator.

[–] bitfucker@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I would like to add something too because I only remember it just now. But I recall someone mentioned that bluesky moderation is unique and I quite like the idea but I've never used bluesky myself so idk how true it is. Basically, an account chooses who to trusts to be a moderator for said account. So that content that is curated by said moderator is the one that the account sees. If the account opt to not be moderated then it can see everything

Because whether you agree or not, sandbox is a necessary for banking app. No other app should ever be able to EASILY (emphasis on easily) perform arbitrary read on the banking app data.

 

So I usually browse the internet at random and sometimes stumble upon some interesting games. Today as I was going to sleep however, I remember I saw a game that I cannot for the life of me find the name again. Not even in my search history (as I regularly wipe those). Can anyone help me find it again? Here is what I know:

  • I didn't find it from steam. And if I remember it correctly, the developer doesn't publish it there either.
  • The game website is quite "old" IMHO. Their website is styled like space with galaxy and stuff.
  • The game features advertised on the very front page is freedom to become anything. Either a trader or even space mercenary
  • I remember the screenshot of the game UI is like stellaris, with a star view, ship control and such
  • I don't really remember if the game is online only or not. But most likely not

I know that seems very generic but I am really hyper focused on finding it and failing. I think I also found the game by recommendation somewhere on lemmy.

Edit: It is Starsector
