It's a cracked version of the game that has been heavily compressed to reduce download size. This is why the installer will eat a lot of CPU resources during installation. While you probably won't be banned, I would generally avoid playing these games through steam as a precaution. Usually multiplayer doesn't work normally anyways.

But what does it actually infer? The article is very low on details on that.

I know this is the FOSS community but I personally recommend inoreader. It has great usability through its keyboard shortcuts and the ability to pull the full article from the website without clutter (similar to reader add-ons).

If anyone knows a FOSS alternative with similar features, I'd like to know.

As someone that told you to try MP:H, I think your review is very fair.

My view of the game is of course colored through the lens of nostalgia but I do remember it getting quite repetitive in terms of enemy encounters. So while the variety might not be quite there, the moment to moment gameplay was still phenomenally well executed.

Don't you need to play through the campaign to unlock all the hunters for MP? Or did you use something like ActionReplay to cheat them?

Sad to see Metroid Prime: Hunters missing from the list. That is an excellent shooter for the DS.

Lemmynsfw uses a custom version that that removes the blur for nsfw images but that's it I think.

Yeah I meant the intentional degradation. Good to know they don't do that anymore.

Unlike Apple, Android phones do not kill their battery life after 3 years. On the contrary, I swapped my S9's battery myself and have it a longer life as a secondary phone for traveling or backup. With the restored battery that old exynos chip is still good enough to run most apps to my satisfaction. Even my newer one is not a current gen model. For me, the only reason to upgrade anymore is security updates and most users don't even care about that. Okay, maybe the cameras still keep getting better but only marginally.

OSM is one of the sources for this and apparently the plan is for this dataset to feed back into OSM as well

Voidtools' Everything for Android would be cool indeed. But iirc androids filesystem already has a global database of files, no? So shouldn't any file manager be able to quickly find anything in there without walking the hierarchy?

This could mean that multiple lemmy processes can share that folder but it would be a stretch to assume that a single process can serve multiple domains.
