Thanks for sharing! That’s a sub from me!

I thank you for your service. Memes get me through to the next day sometimes.

Another one is how most 2g and 3g services (some SMS and voice connections) have known vulnerabilities. Unfortunately not just software security vulnerabilities, but also bad actors that can lease access within that system. That combination can allow for attacks within the underlying systems that make the target completely unaware for periods of time that their messages and voice calls are being intercepted, including 2 factor authentication content over SMS.

Veritasium has a cool video about it. https://youtu.be/wVyu7NB7W6Y

If possible, it is best to not rely on SMS authentication for privacy.

If I recall correctly it sorta changes over the course of the games. I think DS1 was primarily focused on character level, or souls spent on levels, while DS2 had a separate tracking system based on how many souls you have collected in total. Can’t speak too much on DS3 though.

For DS1 and DS2 at least, you definitely can climb those ranks to the point it’s difficult to find someone else that’s online and in your bracket, yeah.

Bassist here. This is already more attention than usual.

Really cool to see “mainline” titles getting this prior to release. Had a friend get pulled into Marvel Rivals who mainlines Linux at home, and he had actually 0 issues getting it running at the time. Literally just download and play. Civ also seems like the perfect game to play on a Deck, so this is a no brainer, but cool to see this stuff is getting more popular to support out-the-box.

Maybe not exactly what you’re looking for, but I’ve been playing Gloomhaven Co-op recently. Dungeon delver, turn based strategy with RPG elements and an interesting mechanic for managing your attacks and movement through an encounter.

A short electronic instrumental that really isn’t all that complex or terribly interesting, but holds a true wealth of emotional context for me. It feels like the awkward first steps in a relationship until something clicks, and ends with a touch of melancholy to my ear.

Hell yeah, fixed it in one

This comment is how I always hope my info dumps go when someone asks me a technical question about something I have good experience in using. 10/10 comment, love it.

First answer to me is Chris Christodoulou, who did everything for Risk of Rain and Risk of Rain 2. The man knows how to let ambient vibes build to boss music

From what I can tell, it’s a juxtaposition thing. Many of the other shooters used in memes have stances that appear outlandish, and have gear that looks a little strange, almost trending towards ridiculous. The man you’re referencing, Yusuf looks incredibly casual in comparison. His stance is at least recognizable as a shooting stance (even if it’s almost appears too casual), his hand is in his pocket, and he isn’t visibly using any of the gear that many other shooters are.

I haven’t kept track very closely outside of the memes, so I can’t comment on Yusuf’s performance in comparison to the others, but the memes paint his character to be someone that gets the task done with minimal resources, where the others are given the role of a “tryhard” for the sake of the meme.

Evidently the imagery of these competitive shooters resonated with enough people that Lemmy had a small breakdown, but I always love to see my Lemmy feed trend into one topic for an evening or two. We all remember the beef stroganoff incident.

I appreciate the informative reply!

Now I’m just curious about you, after seeing your posts. I’ve seen a couple of games come up more than once, but a pretty wide variety of games that usually take a lot of time to get through. Have you been hopping back and forth between some “new to you” games while you come back to Skyrim every now and again? I’ve seen a fair amount of RPGs of some variety, are those your mainstay for games?

I personally have not moved to Linux as my daily juuuust yet, so I’m relatively uninformed, but I am curious. What were these “proprietary” versions the article mentions before the open source ones that it’s comparing against? Were they also Nvidia released, just closed source, or would those be from OEMs (Dell, Lenovo, etc) who include Nvidia hardware in their laptops/desktops that are shipping with Linux installed by default?

I do love me a blurry graph. Really helps me understand how fast.

Thank you for taking the time to post the quotes like this. Interesting to read, and makes me think I should probably see a therapist.

I can only sympathise, and thank you for posting this because I need to hear good things right now too.
