Mullvad Annouce Removal Of All Disk Infrastructure - Now RAM Only
  • I've been a subscriber for 5+ years and have zero issue with the loss of port forwarding. I use my devices for everything from gaming to torrenting, and haven't run into something cause a problem that required me to use port forwarding on mullvad.

    what has been an incredible source of frustration as a user of Mullvad tho is when websites block me or hit me with repeating captchas. I've also had a huge uptick of spam coming in from weird domains. Obviously not sure if thats mullvad-related, but sounds like the issue of "individuals have frequently used this feature to host undesirable content and malicious services from ports that are forwarded from our VPN servers".

    The removal of this feature seems to be a better of two difficult options.

    Women in China are telling each other to bring their boyfriends to see 'Barbie' — and to use it as a litmus test for their thoughts on feminism and patriarchy
  • Of course. I don't care for Barbie either, and never played with the toys during childhood so there's no connection for me. I went to watch with my fiance because it was something she was interested in. The movie was okay. Wasn't great, wasn't horrible. I think when it becomes telling is when people are somehow offended or pretend like it's the worst movie created.

    PAYDAY 3 will use Denuvo anti-piracy technology in its PC version
  • The comment was talking about broken games. If a game is broken, you will find out in two hours. If the game sucks and you buy it, it doesn't matter if you pre-order or buy 6 months later.

    PAYDAY 3 will use Denuvo anti-piracy technology in its PC version
  • There have been instances where it worsens performance. My computer is mid tier-ish at this point (3070, i7 10700k) and I haven't noticed any poor performance from games running Denuvo (latest I tried Dead Island 2). It's likely worse performance loss on older systems, but those older systems probably can't run new AAA games well as it is.

    I think most people don't like the fact that it takes a while to crack games running Denuvo, so they're not able to be pirated for that time.

    Google raising price of YouTube Premium to $13.99 per month
  • I can afford $13/month on my income and watch YT on a daily basis, much more than any other streaming service by a wide margain. Does that somehow make me an astroturfing troll?

    Lemmy.world active users is tapering off while other servers are gaining serious traction.
  • Yeah, I started with beehaw a month ago, then lemmy.ml, and then lemmy.world. I switch between ml and world bc i dont really care about my account itself. And if one is slow, I go to the other. It ends up being pretty convenient.

    As Threads app thrives, experts warn of Meta’s string of privacy violations
  • I don’t think we’ll ever get away from these weirdos. I think that even if some ‘independent’, small company twitter clone became popular, Zuck would just buy it up. He bought Instagram, Elon bought Twitter, etc etc.

    It's probably inevitable that these wealthy goobers will end up controlling whatever social media is popular.
