Adding commas makes this tweet more cringe

Not what I meant 😵

I'd never know that's English

Journey to the Savage Planet was Epic Games Store exclusive for 1 year

Who cares. They're obviously doing that because Steam takes 30% and they believe they can get more revenue from EGS.

EGS isn't as bad as you make it seem. It was the only viable strategy for EGS to implement themselves (this and free games). Breaking Steam's monopolistic position can only bring good.

If I really wanted to be upset, I'll be at playstation exclusives or Nintendo exclusives or similar.

Oh, I see, indeed, I didn't see it this way before you mentioned it. Nice analysis!

Eh, some manage to go around. Steam doesn't push this BS (but yea I guess they force you to pay an amount)

Proton mail also doesn't really go out of their way to check you... and Reddit is somewhat okay from what I remember

Nah, it's the aggressive tone and the GIANT anime picture "edgy" that cringes me a bit, + the "Karen" + the "your man cheats on you", as if us nerds don't cheat (which to be fair, might be a bit true, but there are a lot of exceptions)

I don't think it has cloud saving, easy wine/proton, API for achievements and shit... just overall unfit for "bigger games". It has similar functionality to GOG's offline downloads. I haven't really used it so can't say.

~~I probably won't try it if they also take a huge cut from sales like 30% or something~~ EDIT: They seem to let you choose whatever you want, and charge 10% by default (https://itch.io/docs/creators/payments#open-revenue-sharing). That's neat! However, payment method fees always apply. You can opt into them collecting the money through their account at seemingly no fee, and won't be exposed to chargebacks. That's incredible!

There's a certain threshold at which it becomes too cringe. Balancing it is the key.

Oh alright, thanks

I guess since I don't eat twix idk

 

When checking in other instances, like lemmy.zip, we can see that monero.town has federation problems. Not all posts are shown (very few).

This is a big problem for the fediverse. My instance admin told me that they contacted the monero.town admin about it but didn’t receive any answer. Monero.town runs an old version of lemmy as well

I’m wondering if we should create a new Monero community on another instance that properly federates. It would bring a lot.

 

BeReal is often included in the episodes, and each time it is brought up, a character explains what it is. It really feels like a badly integrated sponsorship.

It’s also pretty dumb because the characters and the people that watch HTSDOF probably don’t want to use such app…

Opinions on this?

 

It would be neat to have a feature where you can show a deleted comment's content, as well as who deleted it, by fetching it in the modlogs, if available.

 

I'm getting frequent Gateway time-out errors when trying to access lemmy.zip

The website is slow from time to time. Never happened to me before

 

Hi! I'm looking for an open-source, preferably FOSS video transcoding web interface.

I would like the transcoding to be done on the server side, be secured by a password if possible (so people don't 100% the server), and I want no data sharing. Most important feature: must allow web uploads. I don't want to automate transcoding, or transcode files that are in the server: I want clients to be able to upload their media and get it transcoded.

The transcoding aspect is important: not just a change in container / file extension, but a real transcoding (changing video codec). Being able to change the bitrate is a plus.

I've been looking at many projects and most are sadly either too simple for my needs (only container change, no real ability to choose the codec, or unchangeable bitrate), or focused on files that are already on the server.

(something like a ffmpeg web UI that runs on the server would be great)

Thanks :)

 

I feel like Crysis Remastered would have been interesting if it had multiplayer support.

When I learned that it only had singleplayer, I was so dissapointed. I had so much fun when playing in multiplayer, then in LAN when servers died, then in custom servers (sadly, most being Deathmatch and not the Power Struggle mod)

Does anyone feel the same?

 

Wondering if anyone knows good alternatives to Discord's screen sharing feature (good quality, good framerate, low latency, and sound support).

Preferably FOSS, but at this point I'm taking all answers. Feel free to redirect me if there's any other community I should ask this in.

 

6. How does Waterfox make money?

Waterfox has search partnerships. That is, the default search on Waterfox is monetised. If you search with it, Waterfox gets a share of the revenue. You are under no obligation to use the default search - but if you like what Waterfox does and want to support the project, please consider using it.

I joined this instance recently and I really like the cool custom additions and tweaks! It’s nice to have an admin that knows what they’re doing and takes the time to develop solutions.

I’m glad to be here :)

Until Then (store.steampowered.com)
 

I found this randomly on Steam and ended up really liking it!

I still haven't completely finished it yet, but I'm pretty impressed by how long and interesting the story is. The more you go the more mysteries come up and you want to know more.

The characters are lovely and I really like the 2D/3D style. Give it a try!

 

With the release of Season 4 coming in three days, I guess now is a good time to make a community specialized for this series on Lemmy!

(I hope making this post is okay!)

(Yes, the show's name is How To Sell Drugs Online (Fast) 👀)
