This is the reason why pre-purchases are a thing. The whole thing could have been less severe if the game was available for purchase with preloading some days earlier.

Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube is now flagging accounts on Premium family plans that aren't in the same householdEnglish
1·7 months agoI pay for premium because currently it’s the easier option for getting no Ads on all my devices. Yes I could install a third party client on my TV, Phone & use uBlock on Desktop, but two of those require active upkeep.
- YouTube Music is included.
For sponsorships, YouTube Premium has the “Skip Ahead” feature which basically leeches off sponsorblock users where commonly skipped sections can be also skipped by you.
It’s just currently easier to pay than to pirate. I will say however, if it gets too shitty, I will resort back to pirating.
I can personally recommend Duck Game. It supports 8 player local play.
It’s a fighting game that plays on a single screen. Quite fast paced and not everyone’s kind of game but so far in my experience it’s been fun whenever guests come.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•An alternative to Contabo (VPS provider)English

[Moved to Piefed] Ask@lemm.ee•Music enthusiasts, who do you think is an underrated artist in your favorite genre?English
1·1 year agoI don’t really have a favourite genre, but recently I have been really enjoying the artist Rob Feather
I don’t really know how to describe their music but it tickles my brain in a good way.
I’m still so mad that power automate requires an online connection to start up and a Microsoft account.
Fair enough, though another possibility I see is that the automated training process for LLMs used OCR for those papers (Or an already existing text version in the internet was using bad OCR) and those papers with the mashed word were written partially or fully by an LLM.
Either way, the blanket term “AI” sucks and it’s honestly getting kind of annoying. Same with how much LLMs are used.
Wouldn’t it be OCR in this case? At least the scanning?

DRM@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Google is reportedly experimenting with forced DRM on all YouTube videosEnglish
7·1 year agoI pay for Premium and if they actually do this I’ll stop my subscription. Web DRM is stupid and I hate that other Streaming Services already have it. Apart from being another resource sink in browsers, it’ll stop third party clients which I use and it also turns off Nvidia Shadowplay which is annoying as it doesn’t automatically turn back on once the DRM content is no longer loaded.
Yes, Sync is Android.

Meta (lemm.ee)@lemm.ee•Which is the suitable instance for creating AI communities?
9·1 year agoWhy the hostility? I get not liking AI (I do not like it either), but being hostile is not necessary. Especially since the Fediverse (Sorry if this is the wrong terminology) is meant to be open and allow communities of all kinds. If you do not like something, downvote it or just block the community it is from and move on, no need to be hostile about it.
(Sync user here) Sadly there hasn’t been much activity from the Developer. I really like the App, but I’ve been seeing more issues lately. Nothing major, but it is concerning.
My very first concert I ever went to was Caravan Palace (2024) and initially I didn’t even want to go in the first place. Glad to say that I did go and now I’m regretting that I never went to concerts before.
Rain World Modding
I already know C# so I thought it wouldn’t be that difficult, but I was very wrong. Rain World is a game made with Unity, but the only part they use Unity for is rendering. And the game also doesn’t ship with debug symbols. Doesn’t help that the modding wiki is outdated at places and incomplete. Took a lot of guess work and looking at other mods to figure out what to do, but I got there at the end and learned a lot.
“Add ability to load sources which are not a nginx file listing.”
I try to be descriptive while keeping it short.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do I use uBlock to hide threads with certain urls?
2·2 years agoAh. Alright, definitely will switch to the open source alternative.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do I use uBlock to hide threads with certain urls?
1·2 years agoThat’s the first time I’ve heard that Tampermonkey is collecting user data. Could you please elaborate on that? I’m currently using it and will definitely switch if that is the case.
Space Station 14









I personally name my servers after Rain World iterators and creatures. I fear the day when I run out of names.
