  • Good AA single player games?

    Jump

  • Helldivers 2 is currently occupying my mind 24/7. Yes there are a few bugs here and there, but the game is just so good they don't really matter in terms of spoiling the experience. It is a 4 person co-op game and its really fun if you find a group of friends you can play with, or a good group of randoms who communicate. However, you can play solo, you just need to change up your playstyle for certain missions, like go a bit stealthier. Honestly try it, and if you want to try the group aspect of it join the official discord where there are lfg channels you can find people to play with.

  • Open letter: Mass surveillance and undermining encryption still on table in EU Council - European Digital Rights (EDRi)

  • Honestly i think as citizens we should start setting up guillotines outside parliaments. That should remind them that they may feel invulnerable but we can always get them.

    Bonus: to really scare them, set up a little cooker thing with a table next to it. The phrase "eat the rich" comes to mind, though in this context it would be more like eat the powerful

  • Statement on EDPB "Pay or Okay" Opinion

    Jump

  • Not surprising that they used the Irish Data Protection Office to implement these. They probably paid them off quite handsomely, or they are simply incompetent. Im leaning more towards a mix of both with incompetence being higher given how my reddit case was handled with them.

  • No worries, fair mistake :)

  • "Employees speak new languages." Is what translate gives me, but I would translate it more as "The ones working speak new languages" or "Those who have employment speak new languages". I still dont get the meme though, so the context might matter more and my translation could be off

  • Which scientific discovery or technological advancement do you hope to see in your lifetime?

    Jump

  • Evidence of life elsewhere in the universe. It would be so cool. I just hope its far enough we cant get there and fuck everything up for them (or that they cant do the same to us)

  • The Microsoft-Dilemma: Europe as a Software Colony | Reveals the backdoor deals Microsoft uses to maintain their monopoly, and how the conservative Gov in Munich destroyed the LiMux project.

  • Very interesting doc! Its sad how this is the state of things, but something must be done. I hope with the news weve been receiving from Germany recently that this will change long term, and not just for the current government. Hopefully it will snowball and have a ripple effect on other EU countries.

    JUST TODAY I was going to buy WinRar. I've used the software forever, for free, and I just thought... I appreciate this, they've never given me grief, and I'm going to pay them.

    Jump

  • As far as I remember it was so that they couldn't use it to create their own paid version. I think the dev wanted it to be free, but found this loophole. If I find the video I'll edit this comment and link it

    Edit: i was partially wrong above. Its not for the reason I thought it was, but rather as a business strategy. Individual users keep it relevant so theyre allowed to keep it for free, while businesses have to pay for the license to avoid being sued. Businesses are its main source of revenue. Here is a video explaining it. Its not the video I remember watching, but it seems to be correct.

  • Correct me if im wrong, but I think I read/watched something a few years ago which basically explains why winrar has a free trial but never actually enforces it. It had something to do with copyright law details, and how making it a paid product extends the copyright protections on it so that corporations cant legally use the code for a longer time. Im not sure if I'm even remembering it correctly, because it was several years ago

  • Idk but it seems to work pretty well for me

  • Can someone demystify computer Ports for me? Please? Blocking, unblocking, opening, allowing, VPNs and their effect, what ports are and what they do, step by step, when you have to interact with them?

    Jump

  • To add to your analogy if i may, the firewall is kind of like a security guard or doorman at the building entrance. All mail has to go through him first and if something is addressed to a closed flat (port) he simply doesnt let it get delivered.
