Switch 2 mouse mode (such potential)
  • A 10usd Chinese knockoff Bluetooth controller works well enough for multi-player. The true little brother experience is to play with the shitty controller.

    For the steam deck, you'd have to buy 2 controllers (potentially both shitty), so the benefit for the switch is still there.

  • Switch 2 mouse mode (such potential)
  • From my 12y old kids perspective:

    The switch 2 plays fortnite and Mario kart. The steamdeck doesn't.

    There is no difficult choice for him.

    He doesn't give a fuck about anything else. Neither do his friends.

  • What is the longest word in your language, and what does it mean in English?
  • Dutch can do the same. You can just keep slapping words together. It never ends.

  • Does Dove hold a copyright on the shape of their soap?
  • 100% sure they do. It would be silly not to.

  • Is it possible to redirect WhatsApp and Signal calls to a landline?
  • Not to argue about the privacy issue, but aren't there better options than a towel? Get a phone without camera? Get one of those phones with physical switches for sensors? Get graphene OS and don't install anything but signal? I feel the towel wrapping is not the best solution for your privacy issue.

  • Warner Bros. Cancels Planned ‘Hogwarts Legacy’ Game Expansion
  • Tesla has a ceo that is arguably evil, his companies flaunt labour laws and he is actively trying to make the world a worse place through multiple means.

    The HP writer makes mean tweets and complains women use her bathroom.

    Both are bad people, but not even remotely at the same level.

  • Which non-US domain registrar to use?

    I am running a NAS at home, Minecraft server and some other stuff.

    I want to make it all easier to access by getting my own domain, both for myself and friends and family.

    Will also use it for my mail address etc.

    My main goal is reduce my dependency on US services for very obvious reasons.

    What's a good non US dns registrar to use? Found a ton online, but it's my first time doing this and I'm a bit lost unfortunately.

    Any help and/or advice is greatly appreciated.

    Tuta Mail reports surge of 148% of new paying customers amid buy European trend
  • I was considering to get soverein.nl, as they offer a custom domain with their mailbox for a small extra fee. Anyone have experience with them?

    Seems like a simple one stop solution.

  • Junk Store: BIG update on what is next
  • If it's a one time payment and it works well enough, chances are big I'll get it.

    If it's a subscription, I wish you the very best, but it won't be for me.

    Unfortunately the explanation seems to point towards the latter :(

  • Valve's DRM was inspired by an exec's nephew, who 'used a $500 check I'd sent him for school expenses and bought himself a CD-ROM replicator… he sent me a lovely thank you note'
  • To be honest, selling copied games also paid for my games, my CD writer and then some when I was 14-15. Took ages to copy a single CD, and it would regularly fail, but friends happily paid me 10 euro for a working copy of the latest fifa.

  • The Pixel 10 will have faster startup performance thanks to this Android change
  • Any references for that? First I hear of it.

    Not that I don't believe you, but I'd like to read up about it. I basically never reboot my phone, never had issues.

  • Britain issues travel warning for US
  • The father complained that his daughter got refused entry into Canada and was then detained in the US. If she would have had the correct paperwork for Canada, nothing would've happened.

    But I agree, my rant is a bit out of place in here. Not the right place to relieve stress about dealing with entitled white people :)

  • Britain issues travel warning for US
  • While the US is going batshit insane, fuck white people that ignore visa requirements.

    Most countries have very clear visa regulations, especially for short term visas. If you travel to the US and Canada as a European white person and you get refused entry because your paperwork is not OK, that is entirely on you. I deal with those entitled people on the regular. It's satisfying to see them not being able to use their white card. L2read and prepare.

    If you're not white and European, that's a different story unfortunately...

    (and just to be clear, I absolutely do not agree with what Drumpf is doing, the guy and his cronies and enables are criminals...)

  • Computer related pet peeves
  • Screenshots are so much faster than a link though on a phone. I do crop mine before sending, but I send a lot of Screenshots in my group chats.

  • Would you have a drink at lunch and then go back to work?
  • Where I work, it's a non issue. As long as it doesn't impact your work and nobody notices it (foul odor or behaviour), nobody could care less.

  • US says South African ambassador ‘no longer welcome
  • Have you seen his ears? It's Macro Dumbo Rubio

  • Valve "followed" 1.7 million Steam users for over a year, and now reports those gamers spent $20 million on microtransactions and another $73 million on games and DLC
  • Elaborate?

    It's easy to just spout generic steam hate, but I'd love to hear what steam does worse than other pc storefronts.

  • Traveling to the US - How to prepare

    I'm traveling to the US mainland for the first time in my life in a few weeks.

    I am not overly stressed about privacy, but I have read that US immigration can really overstep their boundaries. Are there any simple specific steps to take on my devices to protect my privace when going through US border control?

    Remove my main accounts from my phone/tablet and use dummy accounts? Or just removing my biometrics?

    [suggestion] require model/prompt to post

    I love the content posted here. As someone that has recently started dabbling in AI image Gen, it would be an amazing learning tool to see a) which model was used to generate the image and b) which prompt was given. With a) being most interesting imo.

    Is there any reason this is not required?

    (hope it's OK to post this here, didn't see anything in the rules about it)
