Microsoft will charge $30 for an extra year of security updates on Windows 10 - NotebookCheck.net News
  • So umm... Could you technically pirate these updates? Someone could just nab the installer files and share them publicly. I find it hard to imagine that Microsoft built countermeasures for OS update-piracy.

    60 Percent Of Playtime In 2023 Went To 6-Year-Old Or Older Games, New Data Shows
  • Had a brief FOMO moment about Dragons Dogma 2, which luckily passed and i once more managed to put off upgrading my 1070.

    Funnily enough started to play the first "Kings Field" that runs at 20fps. Probably the same i would have gotten on DD2.

    Does this really fit this community?

    I totally forgot how terrible a non-ad-free YouTube experience is
  • That is actually how the Xbox user interface started to look like after a while. It went from "what you probably want functions" to 80% ad, whitespace and "suggestions" with a Play the game somewhere in there.

    Gym headphones
  • Since the OP is asking for headphones and hates earbuds, i'd guess that you are suggesting the over-ear WH series.

    I tried running with them, the problem didn't even get to the sweat part. It's horrible to run with the sealed cans doing a "toilet plunger" like motion when your head bobs up and down. It literally pumps pressure your ears on every step. It's one of those "never again" -experiences. (EDIT: it's fine on elliptical machines though, it's what i use indoors.)

    What i have used for running though is the Koss portapro. It's good if there's not lot of environmental noises. Like if you're not running right next to a busy road. The wire is also a problem, thus i personally modded mine with a bluetooth receiver.

    What games have you played due to FOMO?
  • Umm. It sounds more like that you are just trying out new things and genres and finding that it's not always a hit with you. That's healthy.

    I hate Majora’s Mask!
  • I just started OOT a couple of days ago for the first time. After setting it to run 60fps and dual analog, it feels perfect. A fun adventure where every secret isn't so obvious and leaves room for imagination. The game suprises you often. I even like how it looks after disabling the texture filters.

    The fire sound of the torches are killing me though. The PC port has a sound switcher but i can't find this annoying ear-tearing noise from it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AW6uTdDx7s8

    Plan is to try Majora next. I'm probably going to hate it like you as i don't really enjoy time-loop games.

  • Bip here. Bought 2018. Have been charging it literally only once a month.

    It relieved me from the battery anxiety of my previous sony smartwatch that ran the full googles smartwatch OS. That thing lasted usually a day. Less if i did anything meaningful on it. It made me seriously think if it needed a watch that would do everything, but ended up doing nothing anyway because of the battery life.

    is anyone else bothered by the lack of the 3 buttons at the bottom
  • I love the gestures themselves. I hate that they "try" to follow device orientation.

    It's a guesswork if the screen is rotated or if the media itself is just so. Also i've had multiple cases where the gesturebar is on the portrait bottom but the gestures are on the landscape.

    Oneplus did it correct when they had their own gestures. The gestures were always on the same spot regardless of the device orientation. You always knew where they were. Also i think they worked in fullscreen apps without first swiping the gesture bar out.

    edit: just wanted to add that i'm on android 12, i don't know if they are less finicky now.

    Voyager for Lemmy Released on Google Play!
  • The back gesture is actually stopping me from using it. It registers both in-app back gesture and the operating system gesture at the same time. It skips the main feed with the two backs, goes all the way back to the communities screen and forgets where it was on the feed.

    What does Lemmy lack?
    • Filtering posts with keywords

    User can specify keywords that are used to filter and exclude the users own subscription timeline from posts that include the words in the post-topic.

    For example: User adds the keyword "died" in the settings to a filter list. The topic "Great actor of movie X has died" will now not appear in the feeds. There also could be a more advanced version of this that allows to assign keywords to different communities.

    • Hiding posts manually

    In every post, the tools in the "three dot overflow"-menu should include an option for "Hide post", which makes that post disappear from the feed.

    • Filtering posts with keywords and hiding posts manually.

    Certain topics cause unnecessary anxiety, on reddit they were easy to avoid with RES. Here the only way to remove a post from haunting you from your timeline is to block the poster, which is bit overkill.

    How can I utilise my old Android device?
  • The re-usability of a phone is almost nonexistent thanks to the battery, that is a fire hazard. You leave it plugged in as a surveillance camera? Your home burns.

    If you can actually remove the battery and power it on without one. Just then is everything back on the table.

    If you can't? Recycle please.

  • github.com Build software better, together

    GitHub is where people build software. More than 100 million people use GitHub to discover, fork, and contribute to over 330 million projects.

    Outoftheloop? Quacker and fritter are twitter clients with no sign-in.

    I had no idea that fritter dev wasn't going to implement the timeline back again. I was reading the Issues posts and noticed that they recommend that you try quacker, a fork which took upon the quest to fix it.

    It's currently only on the Izzyondroid -repo. Though, it failed to install on me, so i got the direct download from github.
