I was glad my server did this the other day to make sure the data Lemmy put into my database is secure.

If you're looking for the best bang for your buck nothing beats assembling it yourself. A pre-built is always much more expensive to pay for assembly.

Failed a test because of that the other day. I'm not even a motorcycle guy and still know that.

"Just distribute the server" isn't a requirement. It has never been a requirement. Who said that's a requirement?

It's just a possible solution. And to me it seems to be the easiest since that is the exact way it used to be done.

What exactly publishers will have to do depends entirely on if the campaign is successful and how the resulting laws are written. And may be as simple as an expiration date on all future game sales.

I think that was the original idea but they changed it to energy because they thought the audience wouldn't understand the CPU stuff.

Yeah, they did handle it correctly. All things considered. Even in an utopian future where the stopkillinggames.com campaign is successful. Personally I would still prefer to keep all games alive.

You actually can poison(?) yourself by drinking too much water. Seemed to be a trend to get high a few years ago. So I guess in that scenario you actually can get addicted to water.

Even if it's an absolute shit game.

This game could be a great resource about what not to do.

Is it even possible for a Chinese company to not be pro authoritarian?

Mantis shrimps are famous for their devastatingly powerful punch they use to kill other animals. In the movie Ratatouille a rat who is good at cooking sits on a bad cook's head under his hat and controls him to cook great meals.

Thanks, my daughter wanted to download something from YouTube the other day.

 

to see that AIs have as many problems as they do with drawing hands.

With every version of Android it seems to be harder and harder to get real time notifications anywhere near real time.

Twitch notifications, Signal, WhatsApp, I often get these ten to thirty minutes too late.

I've excluded them from battery optimisation but that doesn't seem to do anything. And I can't find anything else.

I don't care about battery usage. I'm always near a charger.

Android 13 on a Fairphone 3.

Edit: I've disabled DOZE according to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40204605/android-completely-disabling-deviceidle-doze-in-android-m Hopefully that helps.

FOSS AI painting with Krita

It's so awesome that I can let my kid paint with Krita and let her enhance the picture with AI live. She wanted to have an AI picture editor on her phone but I didn't like the privacy policy. But Krita AI Diffusion came to the rescue.

After testing it out myself I showed her Krita, the most important tools and how to use layers and before I could say anything she was off to paint a nice landscape. When she was finished I actually got to enable the AI plugin and show her the ropes around that. And after enabling live painting she went ham and added a phoenix and a giant hand.

Hardest thing about it was that she had to describe what she wanted in English. But she's already learning that in school so it shouldn't give her too much trouble in the long run.

Anyways, FOSS rules!

Can we get a scrollbar for the community quick search? I just posted one I didn't really intend to because I thought I was hallucinating the other one. But stupid me should just have scrolled down to find it. Is it possible to get some kind of indicator to see that there are more available?

I'm on the Android app on Android 13.

Does Arkham Knight get better?

I never completed Arkham Knight and only played the first two games which I really liked. But for some reason I can't get into Arkham Knight. I find myself overwhelmed by the controls that seem to do something different all the time.

Granted, I am much dumber now than five or so years ago when I played the first two. But as far as I recall they were relatively straight forward. But as soon as I reached the first tank segment in the beginning of AK I remembered when I gave up originally.

But this time I decided to soldier through. Until I got to a segment where I had to complete five or six boring ass tutorials which all showed me different unrelated things of which I needed exactly one to progress and which all could have been integrated into the normal gameplay. Three I already forgot and with one I didn't even know what I was supposed to be doing but somehow I completed it.

Is it worth it to go on playing? Do I have to know everything it's trying to teach me? I remember that it was pretty much needed to learn everything in Doom Eternal (as opposed to 2016). But at least all the controls were pretty consistent there.

Anyways. Should I keep playing? Or is Arkham Origins better? Maybe I should just replay Asylum and City instead.
