As much as I hate Reddit this is just continuation of the UK government steamrolling and destroying the free Internet, ruining the adult experience.

One of the wonders of the Internet was that it was wildly unregulated - if you wanted it and you could disable safesearch you could get it, with the caveat of ISP-enforced content locks on all mobile data subscriptions under the name of a legal child (under 18), workplace and school security and filters, unremovable Safesearch on most search engines etc. Broadband required an adult, who in turn could activate parental controls. I couldnt wait until I turned 18 so I could finally access many sites for porn, news, gaming, forums and anything containing keywords without being blocked. I had a list of proxies for bypassing school filters.

In short there is significant existing protection in place and we know that this is simply more evidence of Orwellian enforcement.

It's Meatcanyon's creation, probably from here. He specialises in deeply disturbing caricatures lol

I also recommend Heroic Launcher - it can be used for Amazon and Epic if you have games with them, say free giveaways, but is great for GoG and manually adding installed Steam games. With some finicky steps I managed to get Sims 4 to launch from it. The FOSSibilities are endless

I use Freesm. Looks like ElyPL is geared for custom skins and externally hosted servers. Both is good I guess.

I own the game, I just don't like relying on server logins to fucking play single player/locally. Freesm lets you have the whole game without a M$ account. Combine that with a self-hosted server in offline mode and I can play multiplayer with an offline profile.

Yes, and their doc pages and personal site of the same name. Here's hoping they don't resurface the same code under a new name

+1 for 'lap dogg'

Yeah, when knowledge was the greatest form of wealth. It still is in practice, but it doesn't equate to being able to afford basic living arrangements. In many countries everything is monetised to the point many classes can't progress beyond corporate servitude to earn money.

I don't think there's a straightforward way like a HACS integration yet, but you can access Ollama from the web with open-webui and save the page to your homepage:

Just be warned, you'll need a lot of resources depending on which model you choose and its parameter count (4B, 7B etc) -- Gemma3 4B uses around 3GB storage, 0.5GB RAM and 4GB of VRAM to respond. It's a compromise as I can't get replacement RAM, and tends to be wildly inaccurate with large responses. The one I'd rather use, Dolphin-Mixtral 22B, takes 80GB storage and 17GB min RAM, the latter of which I can't afford to take from my other services.

I agree - some games are alluring for their unique style, some for recognisability and comfort. Plus, normally I don't like too much of a departure from realistic physics in favour of fun factor, like being a damage sponge or tilting and boosting a horse in a different direction, but as a whole this definitely looks great to play. Even has breakable structures that crush enemies, it reminds me of 'Pursuit Breakers' in Need for Speed Most Wanted

Black Knight? Great film

Same problem but when I migrated from Black Ops 1 to Modern Warfare 2 or something similar - couldn't name my class containing assault rifles "assault"
