I still use redirects to visit Reddit (I don’t bother if they don’t work), mainly because one of the main communities I track didn’t really move here.
Does Youtube count? That’s pretty much the only other thing I could think of.

I’m not

I can’t even try using an alternative redirect because apparently all of them are blocked.

The first time I gave up was basically just too much back and forth with Windows. Wine was still not there yet and Proton wasn’t even a thing yet though.

I’ve used it a lot on laptops still, but haven’t gone to a desktop mainly because friends still like to bounce between games that I have to worry if my system will even support (for anti-cheat reasons not for normal compatibility reasons)

Currently using on steam deck and it’s great, am planning for next PC because it feels like too much work to do on a current one when everything is already working the way I want it to.

Gnome’s current state is too far from the UI interface for people who only know windows. Maybe if it was Gnome2.

Normalized???

It’s still literally rated as less family friendly than watching blood and gore murder.

If anything I’d argue that sexual repression is still going as strong as ever in some places. In some cases to unhealthy amounts.

Power supplies and motherboards for PCs

generally if either of them go the rest of your investment goes with it. Worst case scenario the power supply damages the motherboard meaning your cheap purchase made you lose more parts.

Warcraft III had maps called “RP Maps”, which were kindof like D&D placing things, except everyone had the same control over the map. So it became more about telling a story rather than one person leading a group’s game for them.

When wc3 kindof died off that kindof game along with many others didn’t leave it. SCII mapmakers tried but it had issues with the complexity, and with SCII not allowing traditional saving for long sessions.

A lot of sandbox games are cool, but built around FPS engines instead of anything third person.

Basically when I don’t feel like there are plans for immediate sweeping terrible decisions that will take decades to undo

I think it helped with a internet issue once, but I probably just needed to reset something.

I’m pretty sure it just does the absolute basic troubleshooting.

While it might not be an issue anymore, just make sure you look up driver support for wireless for whatever laptop you choose.

2 of the laptops I had in the past used a broadcom driver that was just a nightmare to setup on Linux

There’s a good chance it’s not really a big deal anymore, but if you’re new to linux just double check that it’s not something you’ll run into.

Given someone found it has an official name (Psychic Sports Picks Trick) i’m sure it’s not even close to impossible.

It should be mentioned though that it sounds like you’d need a massive pool of people for it to actually work.

Is there no government oversight for “Uhh no you aren’t?”

Given the recent animal testing results this seems like assisted suicide

That’s a hard question.

I want Firefox to be better. I’ve gone back to it many times in 20 years. I’m using it right now.

But I tend to always leave at some point due to performance issues that I can never resolve. I’m having a good run at the moment with the worst of it being a random lockup I can’t seem to figure out the cause of (and is pretty much just a task manager close, reopen, and resume…and infrequent enough to not really cause much headache)

But other times i’ve had memory leaks, or using most of the ram, or terrible addon management. I pretty much tried Chrome in the first place because back whenever Chrome came out, Firefox was using so much memory that I couldn’t play games while Firefox was open, and multitasking is one of the things I’ve always taken as the reason to play games on PC over consoles.

All in all, I think it represents something better, but whether or not it is better is always up in the air. I just hope people stay hard on them to keep trying to improve the system, because i’m sure there’s people far further on the fence than I am, and I think firefox is capable of just being a good browser.

Judging from the comments, I feel like even with an explanation there’s not enough context for people to tell who was right/wrong here…It feels like everyone is talking over one another…

It’s definitely somewhere in the middle. I agree there’s definitely a good number of cases where the person downloading also wouldn’t have considered it otherwise.

Just wondering, but if you digitize 78-RPM records, what is the actual difference between them and the digital copies existing on other websites? Just that they’re the original recorded copies?

I think it’d be completely unrealistic to think that there are no lost sales…whether or not the amount they’re losing is actually meaningful would be a better question…

One issue I found is that it gives a command for “Convert audio file to mp3”, but shouldn’t it just be any valid file? I threw an mp4 and a mkv in there and both worked without issue

Not like a major issue but it’s more specific than it has to be.

it’s not named after a man who owned the largest private collection of nazi memorabilia in the world, so, there’s that

…what?

He set most of it on fire the moment he purchased it, since it wasn’t even really worth that.
