  • Alexander Avdeyev also threatened journalists and residents with fines if they shared unofficial information about the blast.

    ah yes, i always threaten journalists when there's nothing to report

  • well, at that point the numbers lose their meaning.

  • How many hit points had the Pope, an high level archpriest? he was sick, so he definitely wasn't at max hp, but he fumbled that roll hard.

  • that was literally me yesterday when i had to backup my wifes windows pc. maybe i can get her to switch on her old pc when support runs out...

  • I dearly miss Playnite on Linux. Having Games from a lot of different sources, only Lutris supports more than Steam/Epic/GoG, and it's missing a lot of features from Playnite and it's plugins. Managing my Gamelibrary without it sucks.

  • i am befuddled - just a few moments ago i took a glance at the image preview and thought i saw a chocolate cookie, and was very freaked out that it was a spider body when i took a closer look.

    hmm maybe a good time to finally go to sleep (damn nightmares, they make me fear the nighttime)

  • as a pedestrian i have to say that i never use my blinker.

    joke aside, there's not much that aggravates me more than drivers not using their signals when they can turn either left or right, but cannot continue forward, like near the street i live in that i frequently have to cross. since they HAVE to turn, i have to wait for them to either remember that they have turn signals, or wait until they have enlightened me about their decision by making them a fact.

    don't be an ass, use your turn signals to make your intentions known for the weaker parties on the road.

  • That's an education problem, not a privacy issue. Children also deserve privacy, especially when they have awful and potentially abusive parents. Also, we shouldn't embed the thought that they are being observed 24/7 in our children - that makes only for self-censoring adults.

  • If you want an alternative to Slay the Spire i can recommend Monster Train; you mainly summon different Hellspawn and cast spells, which gives it more of an Magic the Gathering feel.

    If you want an ARPG fix and have thumb buttons on your mouse you can try Chronicon, don't let the gfx stop you, it's an excellent hack&slash game, and you can put all your skills onto 1 button if you like - i use the middle and the right button for most builds and thumb keys for pots

    If you want a new spin on Darkest Dungeon, give Iratus - Lord of the Dead a try. Or if you played a lot of Darkest Dungeon and want more of it, try Black Reliquary, a huge (and free!) mod with a lot of new mechanics!

    Going into the same direction as Into the Breach is Shotgun King - the final Checkmate. It's really fun and the higher difficulties really make your brains work out. Workshop support with lots of extra content included! Also great for Turn-based Tactics is Invisible Inc., putting you in control of an spy agency which has been hit hard and tries to recover.

    For arcade games i can recommend Utopia must fall - it really captures the spirit of old arcade games, but feels real fresh. You can also go for Nova Drift, which is also an excellent arcade game.

    Then there is Cultist Simulator and its spiritual successor, Book of Hours. It's basically a card based riddle game, and very atmospheric.

    There is always Shattered Pixel Dungeon - it is also available on Steam or Gog, but you can download and play it for free from the link i provided.

    I think your collarbone might have healed until you've finished that list, have fun!

  • This is just wrong. People who are sexually assaulted by women in general do not report the crime - getting a conviction for male perps is already hard, getting one for female perps is borderline impossible, and lines like yours are one of the reasons.

  • they are not rare, but they are not concentrated enough to make mining worthwhile. that will change when the price starts approaching infinity, but it takes years to ramp up production. and while you are sifting through huge volumes of stone and rock for meager results, the rest of the world runs in circles around you.

  • yeah, i didn't want to get into the private tracker stuff, since i never used one before; i described pretty much the ressources you have as a "commoner". I am aware that there are many specialized sources out there, where a lot more obscure material is available, but most of those take special effort to gain access to.

  • If it's hard to find, first i try searching via jackett integration into qbittorrent. if unsuccessful, i go over to xrel.to and search for it there (its a pure information site, don't ask for downloads there pls). You can verify if there has ever been a release of the specific title, and if, you can see the exact name of the release. if you can't find it there too, you can be pretty sure that there never was a release, neither p2p nor scene. if it's newer content, you can try to search later; if its older content, go buy it and upload it yourself (safely!) so the next person doesn't have the same issue.

  • well, it's official: Argentine's democracy is a lot healthier than whatever the US are doing

  • eh, it was more fun 40 years ago from what i've heard. everything is pretty sanitized these days.

  • funnily enough, there is an area in vienna, austria that is unofficially called "bermuda triangle", owing the name to the large concentration of bars.

  • i'm pretty sure that there are laws regarding required archival, but laws seem optional for this administration.

  • The white house trusting signal is nice, but using it to circumvent official communication tools which document messages for the archives is not the way it should be used - they used the "disappearing messages"-feature as well. This usage is more in line with criminal organizations like the mafia or yakuza.

  • thanks, i love it! i'm just browsing, and the channels seem all to be really the good stuff! i'm a bit weirded out by the secret agent radio, but it's a good kind of weird lol

  • I don't have any opinion on them regarding their performance. with proton there exist case files which show that they do not keep logs when not court ordered to do so (in the case i know about, they had to be court ordered to activate logs for login attempts to a specific mailbox). I haven't heard anything bad about Mullvad either.

    Windscribe seems to be fine, but they had at least one big misstep where a private key for OpenVPN was saved locally on a server that then was seized by authorities. PIA, on the other hand, had no issues hiring a criminally convicted CTO and merged with Kape Technologies, which was in the business of creating browser toolbars containing potientially unwanted programs.They have been audited in 2022 tho, so maybe they are alright now..
