I'm not saying I support this legislation but I'm really sick of the "parents should be parenting" excuse. Parents can be doing a great job with their kids and those kids will still see porn because of the way platforms push things (not to mention the ease of access of porn, which just needs to be outright banned).

The only solution, barring well-written legislation, is to not allow your kid to have a smartphone until they're late teenagers, and ensure their access to computers is restricted to a public room, with appropriate monitoring.

That's my plan whenever I have kids. However, something tells me a lot of people on Lemmy will take issue with that approach.

Just use Kotatsu (if you're on Android). Best way to read manga online by far. https://github.com/KotatsuApp/Kotatsu

Genuinely have no idea how to dump my games. I have quite a few GameCube and Wii games myself, just wouldn't know where to start trying the process of dumping.

If you're on Android, you really need to use Kotatsu. If one source is taken down, you have a couple hundred other options and it doesn't change the overall experience.

The ACLU is a freaking joke, not sure why you'd trust them. They're literally making up excuses to try to prevent this from passing. Makes you wonder about their reasoning.

I genuinely wish nothing but the worst for Denuvo. Scum of the earth. DRM sucks, I do my best to avoid games with Denuvo.

Let's hope it passes this time. The "controversy" seems to be the typical, forced nonsense. It'd be nothing but a win for children's privacy and mental health.

What I'm saying is that it doesn't matter where the information is. If it's absolutely crucial information, archive it, but if it disappears from Reddit or wherever, it's not like someone else will be incapable of asking again, here or elsewhere.

At this point, I actively encourage people to boycott this thing. Steam Deck is better anyways.

A good first step. FOSS projects have GOT to stop using Discord as their primary engagement and documentation method.

Eh, if the information already exists on the web somewhere, why reiterate it? Seems excessive to insist on asking on the Fediverse unless that information can't be found on a search engine or through AI.

I agree entirely. An argument could be made about native Linux releases being too much but most games run with Proton if the devs don't intentionally cripple it through kernel anticheat or other arbitrary limitations.

 

Does anyone know of any good DOS games that fit the Easter, spring, colorful aspects of the holiday?

I'm in the mood to play something festive later and I've been on a retro PC kick lately, so I'm just curious if anyone has any suggestions for me to try!
