What streaming services do you pay for?
  • HBO Max comes with my ISP's fiber plan, and I like that they get 4K releases relatively quick out of theater from certain studios. If they ever fuck with the pricing or bundle I'm on though, I'm outta there.

  • How many people here are Private-Tracker only?
  • After joining TL, I really only use it and Nyaa for torrents, and Soulseek for music.

    The "why"is just that there's rarely anything I can't find on TL.

  • Steam Deck is #1 seller on Steam
  • top seller by revenue

    Yeah same reason the Index was previously always on the "Top Seller" tab as well, since the damn thing is $1000 lol

  • Do you prefer x264 or 265 HEVC?
  • It's not like a ton of people have compatible hardware anyway. It'll eventually become more common as more uploaders can encode and downloaders can decode.

  • YouTube is testing a more aggressive approach against ad blockers
  • There are plenty of tools to get around news sites with "article limits", so I have some faith that someone will find a way around any kind of video limit as well.

  • Minecraft is leaving Reddit
  • The "equivalent" is already / has been pushed hard in the launcher and youtube content. Mojang / Microsoft already has it's own Feedback forum-style thing.

  • Skullgirls bombarded by negative Steam reviews after devs alter old artwork they felt was in 'poor taste' | PCGAMER
  • That's such a disingenuous argument lol. I have a hard time imagining anyone paid for Skullgirls specifically because of the content that they altered in this patch.

    It's such insane outrage over nothing, and anyone complaining so vehemently using takes like that is just hiding the fact that they're just terminally horny.

  • going back and changing stuff wont do any actual good for anybody

    I don't think it's so outrageous to think the developers / artist came together and said something along the lines of "hey we're in a different place than we were back when we released this, and are no longer comfortable with the social/sexual/racial/etc. overtones in some parts of the game."

    It's helps them, it's their work and their expression being put out into the world; they have every right to want to alter it as their moral compass shifts.

    The only actually shame is that their initial work seems to have attracted a pretty weirdly rabid & horny fanbase that can't stand their change in tone.

  • Skullgirls bombarded by negative Steam reviews after devs alter old artwork they felt was in 'poor taste' | PCGAMER
  • It absolutely is the right choice, and literally 99% of all the twitter replies to their official announcement were just horny accounts mad about the game being less horny. It's pathetic.

  • Multiplayer boomer shooter without Microtransactions?
  • Does anyone else feel like this game is getting super heavily marketed / talked about out of nowhere? Did they pay some big streamer to play it or something ?

    It's a remake of a game from 2017/2018 that had ~100 peak players, and now it has 40K average players? just seems a little weird.

  • VPN Recommendations?
  • I moved off PIA after they were bought by a former ad-ware distributor, and I've been on Proton VPN since.

    They do currently have a Linux GUI, though it's extensively lacking compared to the Windows client, and the CLI / DIY methods for using their service is much more flushed out.

    That's not to say it's a bad client, it's just very much not what they advertise feature-wise. The speeds and server-availability are all great, and these days it's all bundled into a "Proton Account" that gives you VPN, Email, and Cloud Storage based on your tier.

  • Anyone got any sites that post .flac music?
  • Like stems? Probably not all that often, but some people do share some weirdly specific stuff on there.

  • Anyone got any sites that post .flac music?
  • I know this isn't what you're asking for, but with so many scam sites posting fake zips or pretending to upload them behind endless ad-survey walls, I think you're much better off just using soulseek for music piracy these days.

  • ToTK Yuzu Steam Deck Almost Stable 30fps Setup + New Settings [Steam OS 3.4.8]
  • Why would you be running the Static 60fps and the Dynamic FPS mod together?

  • The developer of Sync for Reddit is working on a Lemmy app
  • Artemis is specifically supporting kbin

  • What's the correct way to link to a community on a different instance?
  • For kbin at least, there's currently a Firefox add-on that adds an icon next to any full or relative links that sends them to the corresponding kbin magazine version of the lemme community.

    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/kbin-link/

  • What's the correct way to link to a community on a different instance?
  • Well from what it looks like, on my instance, is that your !technology@beehaw.org is linking to https://kbin.social/m/!technology@beehaw.org.

    I think what OP is after, is a way to make it link to the reader's own instanced version of technology@beehaw.org

    I was under the impression that the exclamation mark was designed to do exactly that: take everything after the ! and interpret the community@instance.example into whatever the user's instance uses for links (m for kbin, c for lemmy).

  • What's the correct way to link to a community on a different instance?
  • Did you mean to link that specifically to kbin?
