I don't feel like they're nitpicking you. I think they said FYI like a PSA and provided relevant, important context for some corporate propaganda people have been sold.
It's not a value judgement against you or what you do, it's just a PSA for anyone who might read your post and wonder if they should be worried about blue light. The answer is no, most likely no.
I agree it doesn't answer your question, and as the only reply when I commented, I can understand why that stings but like... Give it some time this is Lemmy.
I think there's more than 40% of the people on earth, at least in most major western country, that need to hear that statement. How about you calm down when talking to people trying to help.
I've been using Kagi for more than 2 years and I'm very happy with it. It gets me great results quickly and zero ads. Sometimes I use their AI to grab a bunch of data I'd have to collect myself.
My main complaint is grabbing images with them for specific resolutions they just give up or add AI slop at the end. To be very clear, it's amazing at finding 4k images 3840x2160. But if I flip that aspect ratio it starts to suck. That's like... Hella niche but still important to mention.
It's the best alternative I've found to the majority of options, besides self-hosting and I'm not doing that yet so I can't comment on if it's worth it or not.
See that's interesting because it's more cozy for me when I shoot on sight and more tense for me when I socialize. I've lost loot when I've tried talking it out and maybe that stings more because assuming I lose some of those engagements I must have saved more loot than lost when talking.
Idk, it's the social pressure like in a fictional apocalypse of like "will these humans be friendy or not", they're unpredictable. Also I think the map has an effect on friendliness as well. Like Dam had a lot of friendly people but blue gate was like 50/50 at best.
It's just so cool that the game can change so much from playing solo vs squads.
Arc Raiders is a fuckin blast. Having just as much fun with my group on this as we did in like helldivers and hunt showdown, but Arc Raiders has real depth that I think will keep us coming back. This game feels special and I hope it's can go the distance for my group and I because it's one of the best group games we've played in a while.
Solo is fun too, it's just a completely different game. It's more tense, more stealthy, and you're 100x more likely to find friendly players which is really cool.
I don't see anything on here that really improves the products I'm using (email, calendar, drive) in any substantial way. I also see a lot of wasted resources as far as I'm concerned (new VPN protocol?! Anything Lumo AI).
Couple this with the organization's politics and I am very keen on leaving for piecemeal solutions. Proton went from feeling like the good guys trying to do good, to tech bros using good policies as a way to become richer tech bros. I just don't want to support that if there's an equivalent or better solution being run by good (or undecided/unknown) people.
I've played it twice now (tech test 2 and server slam) and I'm absolutely pumped for launch day. This game is fantastic and I think it's exactly what the genre needed, a great entry innovating in the space instead of trying to copy Tarkov (like most of them) or veering a bit too far away from the bits that make extraction games unique (like hunt showdown, which to be clear is a fantastic game).
I haven't seen a single review that was mediocre. I know the algo can really silo people, but everyone who's touched this game seems to give it glowing reviews minus some early third person perspective gripes.
Having had hands on time with the game, I wouldn't sleep on it if you like fps games or PvE extraction games. My flatmate who hasn't really played a single pvp game has really had a blast with this one too, starting out "not getting it" and then by the end of a two hour session saying they were going to buy on launch day. I think this game will convert people who give it a chance.
As someone who currently sleeps, works, and relaxes in the same room these absolutes you're throwing out come off as hilarious. I've literally always lived in a room with both my bed and my computer, always worked and gamed from my computer, always slept within a couple of meters of my desk chair and computer.
You absolutely can work, relax, and sleep in the same space.
Does that mean I prefer that? Could I gain some meaningful benefits from having more spaces to dedicate to certain tasks? Absolutely. And the moment we tax the ultra-wealthy out of existence and therefore make housing affordable again, I'll make those rooms.
But working from home is not reliant on a square ft/m metric that the home must pass, nor how those spaces are organized or themed. I think saying it does only hurts my ability to stay at home, which is better for the environment, the economy, my productivity, and most importantly my life and mental health.
I did just this about 2.5 years ago because I could see where things were going (and honestly where things were). Could not recommend it more to anyone who thinks it's a good fit and can make it work.
It's like jumping forward in time by 20 years from a human-centric perspective.
There are Anti-Cheats that work just not one or two of the truly invasive ones. I'm able to play games like the Finals or Arc Raiders or CSGO or DOTA or World of Tanks or Insurgency or Battlebit without issue. I can't play some multiplayer games owned by EA. It's largely coming down to company lines based on what Anti-Cheat they've decided to go with.
It used to be not all games worked on Linux. Now it's most games work and there's a handful that don't for one reason or the other (like Anti-Cheat).
I already donate but I'll review my contribution and see if I can throw a few more euros their way.
Thanks for the explanation on truth in terms of mirrors, that helps me understand. I was offering server power but that might not be feasible or meaningful. And based on what you've said, it seems like the Disable focused warfare is the best approach.
Is there anything we can do? Like, pardon my lack of knowledge on the subject, but could I host like a mirror and therefore expand the servers... width (would that be the right word)? That way the bots have to hit even more end points?
Start of this year I transitioned to Arch Linux. Only regret is Battlefield 6 and I don't really care about that cause Arc Raiders is coming this week lol. Every other game has worked out of the box. Although actually RoboCop didn't work for me which was surprising but I think that's a temporary hitch.
I made a sheet for step for step instructions for my friends, hoping some of them convert soon with my help.
This is a random image on the web with no sources. Don't take it for fact. Checking your beliefs is good, checking them with other beliefs is circular logic and doesn't result in a more objective understanding of the world. Based off Kagi searchs black does on average have more caffeine, but also it varies and they're close.
