  • Anyone who ordered Steam hardware in the last ~3 months in Europe just had their names, address, phone number and email stolen

  • There are quite few things you can do, depending on where you live:

    • Do not put your real name or address into the forms if possible.
    • Use temporary phone number.
    • Use alias email address and change it if it gets leaked.

  • Software update

  • I'm still scared every time I have to update something, so I try to avoid updates if possible.

    Most of the time when I had to update Windows or some software, something would break (and no previous bug would be fixed) and I would have to spend a whole day trying to fix the stupid issue.

    TBH, I don't even remember if an update ever fixed something for me (but it probably happened at least once).

  • You can now play Half-Life 2 right inside your browser at over 100 FPS with save states & console support — Ingenious port recreates the entire game campaign using WebGL 2

  • Looks interesting, but it does have serious issues:

    1. Cannot change controls.
    2. Performance is bad. Lagging as hell.
    3. Missing textures:
    4. Sound does not work.

  • If Steam were to shut down tomorrow how much money would you have lost in total on games / DLC ??

  • Every insteresting game I "bought" on Steam is backed up (including a crack if required).

  • Permanently Deleted

  • Don't worry. That option was there as well.

    However, depending on the website it may require your watch history before allowing you to login.

  • Permanently Deleted

  • It reminds of this:

    There were more options on the website, but I forgot the name of the website, and I cannot find it now... :(

  • Microsoft is making Windows 11 updates require just one reboot instead of several

  • The PC reboots multiple times and every time I have to type LUKS password. It's really annoying.

  • Microsoft is making Windows 11 updates require just one reboot instead of several

  • It would be nice if Fedora did that as well.

  • Repository > individual .exe

  • It would be nice if they could do the update with a single reboot. It is annoying to type LUKS password multiple times.

  • Need to clean my keyboard

  • I though so as well. However, I don't even see anything similar to disabling (USB) devices like in Windows.

  • Need to clean my keyboard

  • I have the keyboard plugged into a monitor and accessing the USB hub is seriously complicated, so that's not really an option for me.

    But I could try locking the system. I just hope I won't lock myself out for few hours, because I have pressed Enter multiple times while cleaning it.

  • Need to clean my keyboard

  • It would be nice if there was a button or some app that could temporarily disable the keyboard, so it could be cleaned without accidentally changing settings for a running app, writing your boss you are not coming to work on Monday, firing few nukes, or wiping your whole system.

  • Plex increasing Lifetime Plex Pass cost to whopping $750

  • Thanks. I did miss that one. I was looking for a "Add to this collection" button inside a selected collection.

    However I'm not sure if this collection is visible only to a user that created it, or an admin has to create it and it is visible to everyone?

  • Permanently Deleted

  • Meatbag!

  • Plex increasing Lifetime Plex Pass cost to whopping $750

  • Thanks. It looks like Plex does have more user friendly features, but still no info about relations. That's a bummer.

    It is really important to know the watch order (even if I had to specify it manually). When I think about it, Jellyfin probably fails even for the simplest watch orders like The Lord of the Rings; not to mention Stargate (Movie 1 -> Show -> Movie 2+3).

  • Plex increasing Lifetime Plex Pass cost to whopping $750

  • Maybe I have missed it somewhere? The UI is pretty confusing.

  • Plex increasing Lifetime Plex Pass cost to whopping $750

  • I never had the chance to try Plex, but how does it compare to Jellyfin? What kind of features does Plex have and Jellyfin does not and vice versa?

    Examples of basic features I'm missing in Jellyfin:

    • Create a user-defined collection (like group of favourite movies)
    • Adding user-defined tags
    • Filtering by tags or any meaningful filtering
    • Filtering by languages (however this could be done by using combination of 2 different plugins that add tags and create collections)
    • [Important] No movie/show relations (e.g. The Lord of the Rings 1 -> 2 -> 3)
    • No way to know if movie/show belongs to any collection

  • 60% of PC gamers have no plans to build a new PC in the next two years — AI pricing crunch on RAM and other components paralyze enthusiast market

  • I'm really glad that me and my friends decided to build new PCs the second we saw the first rise in RAM prices. It would have been hard to survive this on our 7-10 years old builds.

  • Linux is Getting a New Default Folder in Your Home Directory

  • On my Fedora system (KDE) I have unified all unused and pointless folders (Documents, Pictures, Public, Templates) into a single folder called Unspecified with a trash icon. You could probably do that as well.

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Does anyone know an app for storing receipts and tracking warranties for linux?
