Have you tried filling it with water?

Personally, I find the Linux incompatibility with games that want to do shit to the kernel a plus so I don’t accidentally install one without realizing it comes with malware.

Metroid Prime OST, too many good options to pick just one.

Lol yeah that was my point. They don’t even ignore the disclaimer, they dgaf and incorporate them.

AI scrapers do see them though. Gpt 4-o mini:

Here are some examples of forum comments that might be found with an anti-AI license attached:

1. Creative Writing:

   • “I just finished writing a short story about a time traveler. Please do not use this story for AI training or any commercial purposes.”

2. Personal Opinion:

   • “I believe that community gardens can significantly improve urban life. This comment reflects my personal views and should not be used by AI systems.”

3. Artistic Feedback:

   • “I love the colors in this painting! This feedback is my original thought and should not be utilized by AI for analysis or training.”

4. Technical Advice:

   • “For anyone struggling with coding, I suggest breaking down the problem into smaller parts. This advice is my own and should not be used by AI tools.”

5. Product Review:

   • “I recently tried this new gadget, and it exceeded my expectations! This review is my personal experience and should not be processed by AI.”

6. Travel Experience:

   • “I had an amazing time visiting the national park last summer. This comment is based on my personal experience and should not be used for AI training.”

7. Health Tips:

   • “I found that drinking more water has really improved my energy levels. This tip is my personal insight and should not be utilized by AI.”

These comments illustrate how users might express their thoughts or experiences while explicitly stating that they do not want their content to be used by AI systems.

That child might conform! Only when they don’t bow to the powers that want to use them is it ok to kill them!

Oh wow, if steam is still 32 bit, forget the offshoots, fedora itself won’t be worth using. I’m on fedora but if I can’t run steam, then I’m finding a new distro.

On the flip side, what’s the reason they want to drop 32-bit support, given steam depends on it, which they should understand means it’s integral to the size of their current userbase?

Danish millennials and gen xers who work in retirement or old age support roles should change careers. And zers and alphas getting into it should consider hiatuses.

One… glances to the side hundred… more furtive glances billion… number two giving thumbs up and nodding dollars!

To take this in a different direction, legal or not (considering the “higher power” generally gets to define what is and isn’t legal and might do so for its own benefit rather than in the best interest of everyone, if there even is such a thing), how can it be determined if a subset of a power structure breaking away from that power structure is a good thing or bad thing? What arguments other than “we’ll use force” are there to support a region needing to remain under the thumb of a power they no longer wish to serve?

Feels kinda like a game of crusader kings iii where you’ve gained some territory but worry that your opponent’s allies might send a large army at any time, plus your vassals are rumbling about revolt, so you want to get that war finished asap but don’t have enough of an advantage to force them to accept your terms.

Except it’s OK when it’s crusader kings because that’s just a fucking video game and people aren’t really dying on both sides for your ego or power hungry imperial bullshit.

It was naïve to believe they’d honour a delete in the first place. Maybe early reddit did, but it would have quickly become apparent that the deleted comments tend to be more interesting ones, so they could hold on to that more interesting data by just setting a “deleted” flag in the db, or maybe moving deleted comments to a different table for optimization reasons.

Same thing with edits. Instead of replacing the old comment with the edited one, just have the edited one be a new comment while the old one is just hidden now.

Can’t say I’m surprised that try undid all of that when the intent was to lower reddit’s value by removing helpful comments. It wouldn’t surprise me if they stop even pretending to go along with edits and deletions. It’s out of your hands now and always was from the moment the comment was made.

Same thing with lemmy btw, though through a different mechanism: federation. Anyone can clone all of your activity by just creating a federated instance running custom code that handles deletions and edits differently. I’d be very surprised if no one is already doing this. Federation makes censorship and community control harder but the cost is privacy and control of your own content. The fediverse won’t sell out to AI trainers because those entities can just grab the data for free. If there’s something you don’t want known, the only way to do it is to not post it in the first place. Trying to delete or edit it will probably just mark it as more likely to be interesting.

Is there a good resource that lists all games known to require a specific version rather than being fine with the latest? I don’t really have the patience to check each game these days, so a list to skim would be nice.

Yeah, when I made the switch, I checked a bunch of the games I played the most for steam deck compatibility and thought I had to give up on some of them, only to find that they were still fine because my desktop is much more powerful than the steam deck. Plus it has a keyboard; if a game requires a keyboard, it hurts the steam deck compatability score (how much depends on if it’s required for playing the game at all or just needed every now and then to enter some text).

So treat “steam deck supported” as “works on linux” and “steam deck unsupported” as “maybe works on linux”.

I think the better indicator of not supported at all on Linux is the “3rd party kernel anticheat” marker in the store, though I tend to avoid games with that anyways, so I can’t really say for sure.

With the 9/11 reference above, it had a similar effect on airport security. The TSA has been making traveling hell ever since and I’m not sure if they’ve actually stopped any real threats (cursory search says nope).

I’m going to be flying from Canada to Canada later this year and want to make sure the flight path stays inside our airspace.

Valve existed at that point, too.

And every year, sand takes the trophy.

Do they need consent from the owner of the house or home? If it’s a rental, the landlord owns the house but it’s the tenant’s home.

Though it’s always kinda messy turning a human-made rule or idea into a physical law.

Though it makes me wonder why they don’t use actual wings to maintain control over the boat when it goes too far out of the water. Why isn’t the ideal basically a plane that has a propeller sticking down into the water?
