I have like 40 empty prescription bottles in my sock drawer

lol I have 3Mbps down .5 up for 40$

I saw my first cybertruck in traffic yesterday, I initially thought that some redneck had every part you need to make a car except for the frame and body, and was like “I don’t need none of that fancy shit, I got square tube and steel plate!” and welded together the laziest design they could think of. Then I realized it was just a cybertruck, and promptly laughed at it.

It’s the vengeful spirit of that 2012 mac mini that I put out of its misery last year!

I followed a tutorial meant to bypass Easy: Anticheat for VRchat. I manually defined the hardware names and versions of some of my computer’s components in KVM’s XML code. It wasn’t very difficult and only took about 30 minutes in total, setting up GPU passthrough was difficult though.

Oh my god it’s back? I was hoping we’d seen the last of it back in 2023.

Update: It’s now working.

I’ve finally banished Windows to a virtual machine, and am gearing up to fistfight Easy: Anti-cheat Rootkit AKA Fucking piece of shit that does precisely fuck-all to stop cheating despite having access to kernel space in order to get Sea of Thieves working on my virtual machine.

After Chinese spyware banned, users of banned Chinese spyware migrate to not-yet banned Chinese spyware.

Oh he might of gone on living

if he hadn’t made the fatal slip

of denying the claim of the ranger with the big iron on his hiiiipppppp

(yes i know it wasn’t a revolver, unfortunately)

Elite: Dangerous, because every time I tab out of the game to check INARA for the closest outfitting or something there’s about a 30% chance of it crashing and becoming unlaunchable until I restart my computer. Hence writing system names down on paper before launching the game.

I use paper because the game tends to crash when I tab out to figure out where I was supposed to go. And then it won’t launch again until I restart my computer.

I mean if you’re mechanically talented enough and sufficiently motivated, you could probably rip out the digital controls and replace them with mechanical analogs, getting rid of the computer entirely. Extremely difficult, but probably doable if you know what you’re doing.

That aside, we shouldn’t have to do that to get out of being spied on.

Yeah, due to the nonexistant moderation TF2 voice chat tends to be the most intolerant thing I’ve ever heard in my life.

Oh yeah you’re right, here it is. 🏆

If lemmy gold was a thing, I would award it to this comment.

I honestly didn’t like factorio, which is odd because I’m pretty much the exact target audience (autistic). I bought it after buying Mindustry, played it for about 20 hours and then put it down and didn’t pick it back up again because I realized that it just felt like work. I think the reason I didn’t like it was that you spent 5 minutes coming up with a solution to some problem, and then spend 50 minutes implementing it, which bogs down the gameplay with monotonous block-placing.

Anything sensitive is encrypted and I never decrypt it while running windows.

I bought Sea of Thieves about 5 years ago. Recently, they added kernal-level anticheat (which does precisely fuck-all to actually stop cheating). While that is annoying, I’m not particularly worried because the studio that makes that game is owned by Microsoft, and like all Microsoft products, it was banished to my windows partition with the rest of the spyware.

Musk probably hit it with his signature offensive odor
