YSK There’s someone running around Lemmy posting misinformation against Wikipedia
  • Or even better, donate to wikipedia. I know I just did.

  • You need a VPN for everything when it comes to pirating.
  • I use a seedbox abroad and secure ssh to transfer stuff to my own server. Don't see what additional security a vpn would give me.

  • Which keyboard app do you use on your phones? Do you enable clipboard history in it?
  • I use swiftkey. I type in 3 different languages daily (even in individual conversations) . Swiftkey does this very simply and automatically. Almost no fucking around with changing languages. It just does it by itself.

    Would love to use other keyboards, but none of them comes even close if you need multiple languages all the time.

  • Japan ranks 92nd in English proficiency, lowest ever: survey
  • Half the foreigners survive on the shitty education system though. No need to organize mass deportations in Japan. Just stop English education and 50% of white guys are gone instantly.

  • Mastodon vs BlueSky - differences
  • Could just write your tweets in notepad you know. If you don't want anyone to see what you do.

  • Any meteorologist that can help me figure out what the heck this line is?
  • How? They orbit quite a lot higher than the highest clouds.

    Highest clouds are like 70-90km. Starlink Sats are 500km+

  • is it possible to download Tiktok videos on mobile?
  • The revanced version of tiktok also allows you to download videos iirc.

  • A short story about two army 'pals' in the city of Lamas, by Dionnet & Gal. [13 pages] [mature]
  • I just read the entire bd. Fun read. The story of Arn, the final one in the book, was a great read. Felt like an ancient Greek myth. And the art was phenomenal at times.

    Thx for the recommendation.

  • A short story about two army 'pals' in the city of Lamas, by Dionnet & Gal. [13 pages] [mature]
  • Cool little story. Always a big fan of that style of artwork. I'll have to look into that series, had never heard of it.

  • How to get a refund for Planescape Torment on Steam?
  • Several months and the 8 minutes probably lead to confusion. You haven't my answer yet. Why do you speak like an orc in third person?

  • How to get a refund for Planescape Torment on Steam?
  • Why do you write like an orc? Is there an rpg reason for this? Or is this something personal I am totally missing?

    "I" is gender neutral no?

    As for your actual question, steam is insanely flexible with refunds, but you're pushing it with a request 7.5months after the generous 14days.

  • The most promising Disco Elysium successor studio says workers must unite to topple Valve's 'digital fiefdom' of Steam
  • Gog support sucks tbh. Steam refunds everything no questions asked. Bought elden ring on gog, wrong region, couldn't activate it back home. They told me to suck it. Fuck gog

  • Epic Games is suing Samsung (and Google) for making it harder to sideload Android apps
  • I'm very happy my 12y old kid can't just sideload shit nilly willy. He legit Googles minecraft hacks and downloads random apks and stuff if he gets the chance)

    (his phone is also fully locked down with parental because a 12y old should have free reign on the internet, but that's beside the point)

  • Movie(s) with best soundtrack?
  • The blade runner soundtrack is my go to relax soundtrack. Have listened to it thousands of times by now.

  • Logitech CEO Wants to Sell You a Subscription-Based 'Forever Mouse'
  • Really? Been using a logitech trackball at work for 14 years now. My k750 keyboard lasted me almost 10y until the battery completely gave up and I wanted to upgrade. My Mx keys has lasted me for years since.

    Similar stories for my mice, none of them have failed, I've only upgraded because I wanted lighter, more/less buttons or for other reasons.

  • Kamala Harris statement on Trump's promise to end democracy
  • Trump is an absolute POS, but if you look at the full speech, this seems to be what the actual speech was about. Getting them to vote just this one time.

    But he's running for president and words matter. Good for dems to press him on that

  • There's European countries who can have several different prime ministers in the span of three months
  • And Belgium, and Holland, and...

    This happens all over europe

  • Traveling to the US - How to prepare

    I'm traveling to the US mainland for the first time in my life in a few weeks.

    I am not overly stressed about privacy, but I have read that US immigration can really overstep their boundaries. Are there any simple specific steps to take on my devices to protect my privace when going through US border control?

    Remove my main accounts from my phone/tablet and use dummy accounts? Or just removing my biometrics?

    require model/prompt to post

    I love the content posted here. As someone that has recently started dabbling in AI image Gen, it would be an amazing learning tool to see a) which model was used to generate the image and b) which prompt was given. With a) being most interesting imo.

    Is there any reason this is not required?

    (hope it's OK to post this here, didn't see anything in the rules about it)
