I have been blindsided before, but honestly right now I’m in the same boat on that. Disney isn’t interested in app deployment or distribution, just to advertise their products to kids.
And even so, my copy of SAMHTR is still on my Steam account and the files are there to use with ScummVM (which I believe LucasArts actually did when the game hit Steam)
Yup. There’s a few old re-releases there, not sure if they’re patched up for modern Windows though. Actually, they had a publisher sale on Steam quite recently.
And not just that, when they acquired LucasFilm they not only got a backlog of old Star Wars and Indiana Jones games already on Steam, but also Sam & Max Hit the Road. AFAIK Sam & Max is an independent franchise but LucasArts and thus Disney own the rights to Hit the Road.
RGD is a pretty neat channel that goes through Nintendo’s history through the gigaleaks. Their wiki is inactive but still pretty extensive, too.
I don’t protest it, it’s just funny to see the companies act hypocritical.
How that still isn’t a built-in feature to Firefox, I will never know.
Consent-o-Matic for automating most of the cookie popups.
They actually used cracked versions of their games years ago. Rockstar were also caught red-handed using cracked EXEs.
I’m not enough of a Linux user to inconvenience myself so I’m just using Steam. The cloud sync is the killer feature for me - if GOG had something like it even if I have to pay extra, I’d so use it.
They say this but have some of their games on GOG lol
I’m waiting for Japanese-to-English translation tbh. I know it’ll take time, but it’s worth shouting it into the ether.
I’m not 100% sure if this is everyone’s experience, but when running Firefox with Wayland (not as an xwayland window), Picture-in-Picture windows don’t stay above by default.
If you are similarly afflicted, the workaround is literally ten clicks away (assuming you have a scroll wheel) using Window Rules. You could create and fill the rule manually, but now that I’ve mentioned the ten clicks thing I’m committed to only using clicks in this quick how-to.
Step 1: Right click an open Picture-in-Picture window. In the context menu, select “More Actions” -> “Configure Special Window Settings…”. This will populate most of the window settings for you.
Step 2: Click “Add Property…” and select “Window title”. The newly added row’s text field should read “Picture-in-Picture”. Change the dropdown option from “Unimportant” to “Exact Match”. (All PiP windows in Firefox use this title and by making it Exact Match the rule shouldn’t affect any other Firefox windows.)
Step 3: Click “Add Property…” again and this time select “Keep above other windows”. The dropdown in the newly added row should be set to “Apply Initially”. Select the “Yes” radio button if it isn’t already.
Step 4: Click “OK”. That’s it. No more manually setting Keep Above every time you open a PiP.
Limited essentially means the instance is put in quarantine. AFAIK it won’t appear on the federated timelines but users can still follow and communicate to them if they desire.
Yeah the detailed explanation would be very helpful. It’s nice that Lemmy has the page at least (and I learned something new today), though that is just Lemmy and the fediverse is much bigger than that. I believe Misskey and Pleroma share it similarly to Lemmy, while Mastodon allows admins to hide it from the public (which, as I said, will act as a barrier to those wanting to sign up)
Yeah there’s a similar tool for the wider microblogging part of fediverse (Mastodon, Pleroma, Misskey, etc.) but because it was made by an edgelord it gets dismissed. I get the vibe some instances just don’t want to share that information, which is important when you’re basically dealing with web infrastructure, and get mad when you seek that information out.
tbh this is a general issue with the fediverse. Some instances aren’t transparent about who is being blocked and why. It made it a whole lot more difficult for me to figure out what instance I should go for.
Was going to say that Consent-o-Matic wasn’t on Android but there’s now a banner that says when it’s compatible. That extension has really saved me a lot of time, got it on my Android phone.
Bypass Paywalls was removed by Mozilla IIRC. It is on GitHub though so you can just install the .xpi just fine.
I personally really like the way macOS handles multiple desktops and full-screen apps. Would love to recreate it in KDE.
Depends on your use case. TST doesn’t just do vertical tabs, it shows a tree view of child tabs which might be useful if you need that.
