Because both the Palestinian communities and anti-DEI communities have legitimate core messages, and both have members that spread hate.

If you’re willing to let any community get taken down despite them breaking no rules or laws, accept that it also can happen to the communities you support. It is as simple as that.

Where did you go for it to be associated with terrible people? It is one of the most used twitch emojis.

Pepe the frog and swastikas are the most common extremist symbols found on Steam, according to the report, respectively representing 54.6% and 9.1% of detected symbols.

So more than half of the “extremist” symbols are a meme that a tiny fraction of conspiracy theorists think is a dogwhistle for racism.

Game mods are also touched on in the report, which claims to have found hundreds of mods for games, most notably Garry’s Mod, “that specifically reference mass shootings.”

Who even thinks this is a big deal? This screams boomers being upset about violent video games all over again.

Are you sure they’re not just pissy about the DEI Detected community and want to force steam to shut it down?

Roger that!

Windows defender is not supposed to protect you from user mistakes. It protects you from viruses like ransomware, or spyware like google chrome.

It is a nice concept in theory. It has a bit of resemblance to the metaverse minus monetary enshittification, but there are some challenges to this.

It would for example end up just as dead if the other players got bored of it and stopped playing. Then there is server costs for something where there really isn’t that much realtime interaction in, and all these metagames would need to be just as fun with a global time at a set flow, or be OK with synching only at the end of the day.

These of course aren’t impossible challenges.

You could leave the “online” part to a simple global api backend and skip the gameserver itself to greatly reduce costs. You wouldn’t see the other players in person but you’d see their shops grow each new day, and there could be an NPC of their owner walking around.

You could bankrupt inactive players and give their lands to new players, and implement import/export costs for distant shops incentivizing local trade. You’d probably still want normal NPCs, but their interactions would have to be predetermined each day if you don’t have a game server running all day, and want to prevent cheating.

The implementation difficulty and cost greatly varies depending on how much interaction and fairness you want, but setting up an API server is fairly easy if you don’t worry about scaling in case the game really takes off.

Facing worlds.

I still listen to the unreal and unreal tournament soundtracks to this day.

Host it on the tor network.

Host it on web 3.0.

Host it outside the US.

Host it over torrents and i2p.

Hello mixed in vinegar.

Helvete!*

*It means hello in Swedish.

This is why I was secretly rooting for Aether to take off instead of Lemmy.

The one war I hope both sides get annihilated in.

B) No, you’re replying.

B2) First of all, you’re requiring out of box. Even windows has hibernation disabled by default, so it doesn’t come out of box like you want. Second of all, while yes, hibernation requires a little more extra work because it requires signing your keys with secure boot and therefore Microsoft itself (which any linux user is hesitant to do), it does work with a bit of extra work, and there are guides. It is not a big deal.

I neither use TPM due to the potential backdoors, nor secure boot because it serves no purpose other than to try to lock in users to Windows, and preventing piracy (besides, BlackLotus bypasses secure boot, so it is rendered completely useless). And on linux you are allowed to disable these. Secure boot in itself is legally in a gray area because it forces you to sign with Microsoft even when you don’t use Windows or any Microsoft products.

C) Me: windows is shit because it overrides my preferred settings in favor of Microsoft products. You: No it doesn’t. Me: yes it does. Here try this right now. You: That doesn’t count because you’re on windows using a Microsoft product. Me: the entire OS is a Microsoft product, so technically they could ignore your preferences at anytime, but that only proves my point harder. You: pardon?

Are we up to speed?

A) copilot and recall are embedded into windows explorer and many other features of windows regardless of whether you have it enabled or not. If you uninstall copilot+, windows explorer stops working.

B) it has to do with Windows if they collect information that they’re not legally required to collect. Most linux distributions don’t collect it, so that makes them superior in that case.

B2) it has been available in Ubuntu core for over 2 years now, and in arch for even longer than that.

B3) If you have to break a system in order to circumvent (temporarily) something that is being forced upon you, that only proves my point that the system is shit.

C) oh so now suddenly it is OK to have Microsoft products shoved down your throat because after all, windows itself is a Microsoft product.

A) Windows Recall and Copilot. Recall will screenshot your environment every second. Copilot is an LLM which has access to virtually everything on your system. LLMs are also notoriously easy to fool into giving away information it was specifically instructed not to, and perform actions it was instructed never to do.

B) The us government has no business collecting information about non-us citizens, but even for people living in the US, imagine having an abortion, and living in a state where abortion is illegal. In that case you wouldn’t want the US government to come sniffing either. But more importantly, privacy does not need to be justified.

With Windows, I have access to Secure Boot and TPM-backed full drive encryption (including hibernation support) out of the box. Can you do that with Linux?

Yes.

Also, you know as well as everyone else here that the MSA requirement is easy to bypass.

You know very well that if someone has to crack your OS to get it the way they want, that is not a quality.

C) Again, provide specifics. I don’t default any of my apps to Microsoft’s and this just doesn’t happen.

Press the windows key, write “how to open windows menu searches with firefox” press enter and let your favorite browser Edge look that up for you. A nice page will explain to you that windows doesn’t let you use your default browser from the windows menu and that you’ll have to install a script called “ChrEdgeFkOff” to circumvent it.

Microsoft just recently implemented a screenshot spyware on your computer and an AI with the widest attack surface for hackers ever on your OS and mixed it into your most basic tool, the file explorer, then blocked off a quarter of all users for using 2-5 year old hardware, instead of implementing software fixes to avoid hardware vulnerabilities.

It then forced you to use a closed source hardware component that likely has a backdoor, to store all your encryption keys, required you to make a Microsoft account just to use your PC, and then use that account to spy on your every move both online and offline. It is a privacy nightmare.

It then keeps overriding your default settings to make you to use Microsoft products over other ones, and have started baking in ads into various menues.

If you still don’t think that makes it the worst OS, you’re obviously coping. I have used Linux, Windows, and Mac, and out of those three, Windows is at the very bottom.

At the hospital on 100% copium ventilators.

When every other topic by windows users on lemmy is “windows sucks so much. Now they did X and Y, and everything is shit” linux users are going to reply with “use Linux”.

It’s like hearing incels complain about never losing their virginity. The brothel is right around the corner, just get it over with.

Just guessing, but maybe a 6.4 / 10 customer score. More copies sold than Concord, but not enough to go net positive. It looks polished so I doubt it’ll be overwhelmingly negative, but it just won’t be that interesting to gamers so most will probably just not buy it.

It’ll probably be review bombed in both directions.

A lot people are liking it because the people who didn’t during the early preview didn’t receive their early access copies.
