Do people actually pay for Paramount+? I figured people just got it for free with Walmart+.

Finally. It was announced in 2017, and then development was restarted in 2019.

I hope it will be worth the wait.

So how do triple rainbows work?

I know there was an issue not long ago where Sopuli had to defederate from kbin for awhile. Kbin had a federation bug that was endlessly spamming federation updates and it was causing Sopuli to fall behind on federation.

Mbin had a fix up pretty quick, but several attempts to reach the Kbin admin all failed.

I really respect that they added offline mode. Shows that they actually cared about the game, even if they were forced into it.

I misread your title and thought you were saying that the Boost for Lemmy app was now dead. I’m glad I was mistaken.

“Farmer Geddon” sounds like Armageddon, which is the end or the world.

This is pretty great news honestly. I see a lot of pushback against AI, but realistically I don’t think there’s any chance of getting companies to stop AI development.

If it’s going to infect every part of our lives either way, I’d much rather we focus on making it actually widely available to individuals, where people can use it privately for their own benefit, rather than it being one more way that tech giants take control of our lives.

Shadows of Doubt is an incredible game, and I highly recommend it.

The snipers missing their shots is a pretty funny problem honestly, sounds more like it’s an issue with how they identify that they have a clear shot rather than an actual accuracy issue.

Also, part of how the game simulation works is that when one of the simulated people decides to commit murder, they have to acquire a weapon to do so. So if someone decides to kill as a sniper, they will either already need the gun/ammo for it, or they will seek out a black market dealer to buy from. However apparently once they’ve bought ammo, that ammo becomes unlimited, leading to the huge ammo piles when they can’t actually get a clear shot on their target.

They’ve been working since the API price change, so nearly a year now.

On android, I would recommend using Stealth or Geddit to browse reddit. Stealth has a mode where it scrapes old.reddit.com (and bypasses the API), and Geddit uses the RSS feed to pull content instead of API.

Downside is neither app will let you interact, but I don’t have any desire to generate content for reddit anyways.

Yeah, my wife wanted to watch it together and we got burned out on the repeated catastrophes. At some point they move onto dramatic plot disasters that include a bunch of the hospital staff, to make it more exciting. The show went on for a ton of seasons after we dropped it, so presumably they found some way to make it even more dramatic than a disaster that kills a 3rd of the hospital every season finale.

Watching the show on netflix was also bad for emotional whiplash. They would build all season up to two doctors confessing their love in the season finale, and then immediately in the next episode (new season) they would be broken up again. I suspect it felt more natural with the delay between seasons in-between episodes, but watching them back to back like that felt jarring.

I know a guy who installed a large flood light on the back of his truck. He officially has it as a work light, but he uses it to flash tailgaters and people who follow him too close with their high beams on.

I don’t know exactly, I was just referencing what was said in the article I linked above, which has quotes and statements linked from both the hacker and some apex/eac teams.

I’m not entirely clear, but it sounds like the hacked Apex games were on computers at different locations, which would make me think they were likely hacked remotely without physical access to the hardware. The hacker claimed he performed the hack by using a vulnerability in the game process, and that his hacking method only let him compromise the game and didn’t give him any access to the people’s PC itself. The developers said that it was EAC itself being exploited, but that the specific exploit shouldn’t allow him access to owner’s PC.

The combination of statements makes me think this was a remote hack that exploited vulnerabilities in EAC/Apex Legends. Thankfully there seeming wasn’t an escalation to give full access to the PC, but considering the level of access that kernel anticheat has I would be very concerned about the possibility for any future hacks that compromise anticheat systems.

Kernel anticheat also doesn’t work, Valorant is full of cheaters, and Apex Legends players had their game remotely hacked installing cheat software mid tournament match. And an increasing number of cheats bypass the computer/console all together, and replace inputs to the computer to allow macros or aim-botting. Recently a monitor was announced for league of legends that will track enemy players movement and location for you from the video feed alone.

The best way to prevent cheating are with good server side anticheat. Another possibility is that companies can offer secure computers through a live streaming service like Geforce Now, which would be more secure than kernel anticheat without any of the privacy issues.

I’ve been watching this game closely for some years now, pretty excited about it.

Richard Stallman stretched out nude on the beach, no doubt.

I wasn’t able to find an original, but I would assume it was either talking about the fact that they’re crustations and not bugs, or talking about the different regional names for them (roly poly, pill bug, potato bug, etc)

I mean, that’s kinda a risk with any ED medicine from what I understand. All of those kind of medicines have warnings about if you have an erection lasting more than x hours that you need to immediately see a Dr. When you’re erect, the blood is trapped in your penis, and if it’s trapped for too long it can cause tissue damage and tissue death.

So it’s a risk with all/most ED medicines, just significantly more of a risk with spider bites.
