I can see dead memes!

Since almost everything on the right would be located in /home/<username> on the left, it should include some of the subdirectories of %windir%\

Interesting… I got the retail version back then and it was bundled with Steam and did check your account on every start (or required a steam client running with the title in the library). It even had a warning label on the box stating that it needed a steam account and that the CD key would be linked to your account. But I do not remember it using Securom. Which checks out, as I vaguely remember buying I after Christmas.

Maybe it got removed later? I can find some discussions in the steam forums arguing about the drm from about 10 years ago, and other more recent discussion where people are wondering why it has no more drm - e.g. this comment describing the same procedure as I did above

Fun fact: My Steam accounts lists that it was created in July 31st 2004, although Steam was released on September 12th 2004. I guess they just added a random date on old accounts that didn’t have a date registered?

Wait… Half Life 2 is the game that forced me to install steam, create an account and wasn’t playable without it is “now” in this list and is DRM free?

Companies need to get comfortable not owning my money!

In the end it’s about money. If one had to pay for environmentally damages (e.g. a new tax on $energyUnit, $resourceUnit,…) and you’d not only pay for the resources + some markup for the producing company and just external externalize the “worth” of the damages (read: the taxpayer,…), then it’s cheaper to use these services instead of humans.

Well, the author probably grew up and was socialized in a world that had books/movies, but not video games, so…

It’s encrypted anonymous communication capabilities.

Unless you enable it for every single chat (and IIRC only available for chats with only two persons, not group chats) there’s no encryption. Or did they change that? The only encryption that applies to most chats on that platform should be transport encryption via TLS.

The baffled men are meeting now their maker.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah!

Have you heard of buttplug.io?

Are there any cast-delays or such? Otherwise, you could just say I cast, as soon as they’re 30ft away

Tried to check it out - for me it’s neither on Google Play nor on F-Droid. Is it still supported and updated?

Depends, my setup is basically the same BUT:

When you access example.com, you see a generic site tells g you this is my Domain and used for some personal projects. On it is a link to blog.example.com (obviously a blog) and other public services like search.example.com (being a searxng instance).

But there’s a fuckton of subdomains that are not linked like nextcloud.example.com, myTelegrambot.example.com, etc.

Also not all are hosted on the same server and some subdomains point to other IPs. For some services I do have another domain, but in general, they’re just grouped with some logic.

Not sure what a reverse proxy would offer me here…

As a fellow Banana from Argentina I can say that this is a false narrative driven by the CHIQUITA

I wonder what the surface of the sun…

AaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAaaaaaAaAaAaAahhhhhhhh!

I’m donating to a few projects and also to some fediverse admins, whose instance I use.

I really like liberapay as a platform, but there are other ways I use for donations, too. Recurring payment is preferred for projects that are important for me, but one time donations are fine too. I just constantly forget that I should probably donate again for projects that don’t have a way for Recurring donations and they’re probably missing out…

all they want is pure confrontation about every single opinion there is.

Oh yeah? I don’t think so. Fight me if you want to try to change my oppinion!
