Privacy@Lemmy.ml: How can I remove the extra parameters in startpage.com URLs
  • This is how GET works, every single parameter is visible regardless of meaning.

    How about https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/clearurls/ ? I use it on default settings. There is a chance you can set it up to clear StarPage's GET variables too.

    But if there is an actual setting to use exclusively GET parameters by StartPage, they will just be populated again.

  • I am playing Iter Vehemens ad Necem, in short IVAN, on Winlator.

    Is a ~25 years old rogue-like game that uses MIDI as background music. Sound efffects are instead wave files. MIDI files are just a series of notes a sound card plays back with its internal musical instruments, much like a digital music sheet. Modern audio cards no longer have true support for this now ancient audio format (still used to this day actually, but only on specific music production devices), and desktop systems can run software based MIDI emulators to still hear this sounds (modern Windows has one preinstalled that is invoked automatically when MIDI is played)

    Sound effects work just fine, but there is no background music when running this game as it detects no MIDI devices. I need a way to get a software MIDI emulator running under Winlator, maybe even the default modern Windows one.

  • Nope, this was real.

    Google's new search AI did many errors at release. This can be found online and include but not limited to:

    • It's normal for cockroaches to live in someone's penis
    • You should mix some glue while preparing a pizza
    • Overcoming depression is done by jumping off the Golden State Bridge
    • You should eat one small rock daily

    This was fixed manually per search topic that got viral, but they probably changed its configuration by now to trust reddit amd 4chan comments less.

  • It's per game.

    Right click a game (or press Start in BigPicture/GamingMode), select Properties. Go to the Privacy tab, and there you can hide the game from everywhere but yourself. The game will only be visible in your own library when logged in, and people won't see you playing that game when you run it (you appear Online but not playing anything, your nickname in friends list remains blue). You also make the game invisible in your profile, both on the main page with the play time and on the full games list.

    You can also do it before purchase, now every time you put a game in the cart you are asked if you wanna make it remain public or hide it.

  • If we talking about modern Android, good to know. I used to run a launcher on a modded Samsung Galaxy Young (CyanogenMod11) that had a fixed notification option to prevent Android from killing it (the device had 512MB of RAM).

    I've tried base Wine and Wine-GE under Lutris.

    Base Wine has the issue I mentioned in the title, where the game would play no sound apart from the menu music and the in-game commentary (meaning the menu movements don't do any sound, and during a match you don't hear the ball kicks and the referee whistle).

    Lutris fully breaks audio with it's default settings. You need to disable fsync and esync to make the audio return (yet, it acts like base wine still)

    DXVK has no effect as the game uses DirectX 8, meaning it's running under WineD3D.

    A Reddit post mentions extracting the following DLLs from a DirectX8.1 installer and applying a override to use them, but doing so on my end just mutes the game: "dmime.dll dmsynth.dll dmloader.dll dmusic.dll dsound.dll dsdmo.dll"

    Using DgVoodoo has no effects on this issue.

    Hello. For a couple of days my browser has been failing automated captchas when it is hosted by Cloudfare. Any other captcha service works well and lets me go trough.

    This is happening on Firefox for Debian Linux 12 (apt). Doesn't happen on Firefox flatpak and Chromium apt.

    What can I do to check further or to give more info?

    www.steamgriddb.com Pokémon Trading Card Game Live - SteamGridDB

    Custom library assets for Pokémon Trading Card Game Live.

    I have reinstalled the game on my Steam Deck, only to notice all images in the database have been removed!

    I have read absolutely no news on this, and looking it up only the original takedown for the Pokemon Switch games come up and I even remember then still being up after those were removed.

    When did this happen? This is a PC game!
