(because “save as” isn’t available on “modern” websites)

I think this is also more of a mobile issue with apps more than just websites. Like, hence why those screenshots are so often from phones. Generally one’s that are more obviously from a computer are social media posts, presumedly to facilitate sharing on other platforms easier.

Because on desktop, even if a website doesn’t allow it, using the dev inspector usually allows you too. I wonder if it would be possible to create an extension/userscript that automates that on hostile websites.

The mechanism for how it works is that as a remote instance sends in it’s downvote count, Beehaw immediately drops the message without modifying the database. Part of this exchange is an expected response of the total updated downvotes. However, Beehaw sends back “0” and the remote instance knows it can’t be zero, so it treats it’s local count with higher validity.

Essentially, this all ends up meaning that what ssm will see is the total of all downvotes from users on their own instance, and nothing else. This might be just their own downvote, especially being on a smaller instance. But I’ve seen lemmy.world users be confused about it bc the count they see is say, -5. Have been told my instance obviously has them enabled 😅

Remote instances don’t communicate their vote tally’s with each other for a third instance’s post.

Yes. I completely agree that there should be. However the other poster’s claim that it makes Apple just as bad as Microsoft turning a syncing feature on without user consent is ludicrous imo. That just feels like giving them a free pass on what is, I believe, an as before unseen escalation in the erosion of user privacy by large corporations.

Wow. I genuinely can’t believe people are upvoting you for this. Like yeah, I super agree it’s a dark pattern. Stealing people’s data is WAY worse though, uploading potentially sensitive photos or documents to their cloud with no user input. But according to you that’s fine because it’s less obtrusive and annoying? Yeesh I’m glad I don’t have your priorities.

Edit: Like, have you seen most people’s home screens? They’ll have a dozen other “red dots” and it becomes part of the background. In the same way as you talk about with Windows errors. Here’s mine:

Oh noooo, a red dot on the Settings app…with all the other red dots…

Oh no, an annoying red dot. Microsoft are straight up hoovering up users data into the cloud by automatically enabling syncing. These two things are not even close to the same.

No, it’s a mobile-only feature. On desktop the game only saves once the day ends, either via bed or exhaustion.

If you haven’t played since relatively early in it’s release, I believe that was a bug that has now been fixed.

Hey @Thorned_Rose@sh.itjust.works the last chapter of this video is called redscreen, are you David Plummer? lol

Ahh, that sweet yellow and black split screen 😌

Capitalists have an answer to this, it’s called the Pinkertons…

As of last month, I can now, in fact, store my driver’s license on my phone. Can’t wait to use it for nights out with friends, no risk of losing my purse and the app even hides your address unless you specifically allow it, so no skeevy bartenders can read my address when they “card” me :)

You say this like destroying the technology wasn’t their way of targeting the systemic issue? Destroying expensive machinery has been used by labour time and again as a tactic to get the capitalist class to cough up.

The difference comes when they actively *block* installation (just like Mint does).

Dude’s anti-Mint as well. From a different comment, seems like he works (or worked) for Ubuntu.

You know what seems more anti-consumer to me? Trash-talking your competition for making different choices to you with your FOSS they’re legally allowed to re-distribute with any changes they like.

It’s almost like if people don’t prefer those changes or something then they won’t be popular? Oh wait, Mint is hugely popular…

Let’s get even more technical with MacOS X then. Which, btw, doesn’t exist anymore as macOS 11 was released in 2020 (tho it still maintains the BSD-legacy in the same way Windows 10 does the NT legacy). It is based on the NeXTSTEP operating system from NeXT Computers, who Apple bought in the 90s to famously also bring Steve Jobs back into the fold. The initial release of NeXTSTEP occurred in 1989, pre-dating Windows and Linux…

There are plenty of people who need a better editor than GIMP considering how long it’s gone without a major refresh (this isn’t a whinge it’s been over a decade). For anyone that actually cares about their sanity there’s Krita, that actually tries to build a program for professionals.

Edit: Let alone Krita can actually be used by schools, while GIMP isn’t because of the name.

*Framework has entered the chat*

In my experiences, Sunshine/Moonlight are a little bit more performant. But what’s nicer about them is they are far more configurable, at the disadvantage of being less ready to go out of the box.

Edit: By this I mean you can do things like run bat/bash scripts on connect as well as disconnect. You can also launch straight into games themselves rather than need to connect to big picture mode first.

Okay, so full disclosure, I haven’t used Netris at all yet, but I have used Sunshine/Moonlight extensively.

Moonlight is an app that’s compatible with the Nvidia Gamestream protocol. You can stream directly from Geforce Experience to Moonlight, but Nvidia have deprecated it. Thankfully, an open source implementation of the Gamestream server exists called Sunshine, that is fully compatible with Moonlight (I don’t know how much of this you already know but other people will read it too). However, due to limitations in the design by Nvidia, the Gamestream protocol is a 1:1 connection. You get the display out from your PC and Geforce/Sunshine handles launching the app. So if you want a single card to handle two different gamers at once, you have to split it and create VMs, then install Sunshine individually to each one. These resource partitions are often also static.

Netris on the other hand is based off of GeForce Now. Nvidia based it off of Gamestream, insofar as the connection between client device and server. But in terms of the software Nvidia runs on their servers, it’s designed to handle dynamic scaling of hardware to accomodate multiple clients. It handles getting however many 720p or 1080p or 4K streams out of a specific card, and can often split them unevenly when needed. As well it handles syncing of cloud saves and the creation and destruction of VMs. So to me it seems Netris is the full package needed for sticking a 3080 in a server and having 4-5 users all be able to utilise the one card to game concurrently.

This will hopefully grow to become an excellent choice for smaller-time cloud providers to compete with Nvidia. And self-hosting it with a beefy CPU setup and SSD storage so it can handle multiple gamers at once. However, if you just want to stream a single PC for a single gamer (or even two seats using a VM running on your desktop) then Sunshine & Moonlight are going to be the better choice.

With Invidious, it would have to block every single accessible instance for that to work. You can proxy the video through the instance to avoid censorship.

It entirely depends, but I don’t think “Stable” is necessarily synonymous with “Release” versions. You can have a “stable” version where it functions correctly and there’s no critical bugs that crash the program.
