I think my next challenge run should be beating the PS3 without reloading. If the game crashes or I clip into a rock I need to start over.

It’s for work

Me too

No.

The man in the photo reminds me a bit of Brutal Moose.

Maybe it’s just the facial hair.

Thank you!

Good point. I had forgotten about disabling network access. I think a majority of the games I paid for work off the idea that if you connect a few times or have a certain amount of plays times you can then play offline. Well the ones that check that is.

Maybe I’ll give this a go. Thanks for the advice

What data would be sent off having Google Play services installed? I get that you can disable certain permissions and can also use profiles.

Ideally I wouldn’t want to use profiles. I could use something like Shelter on a rooted device but that kind of slows down multitasking

Thanks but I’m shooting for as little contact with Google as possible

I’ve tried lucky patcher with a few games with minimal luck. I haven’t tried it with Stardew Valley though so maybe there’s a chance

It doesn’t hurt to be cautious. Trusted sources have occasionally included malicious materials and blindsided users

That would be nice. If it got popular enough it might be a platform where you can assume someone is somewhat tech minded because they use it.

It could be a baseline for something in common.

I think Wikis themselves are more useful than ever but I don’t know how well a political Wiki would go over. I could see it being very easy to get accused of being biased in one direction.

You may want to do some digging and see if something similar exists though I doubt a lot of websites would be open to outside submissions.

If you do decide to create one I would be interested to see a historical background section. For example if a page is dedicated to improving failing infrastructure in the United States including when and why it was developed, prior large pushes for maintenance, and the history of funding.

I feel like knowing how things go the way that they are should be a bigger part of people’s political views. That is unrelated to your question though; just an idea.

Yeah like I said I wasn’t sure where to get information on orientation.

I’d be curious how those numbers overlap with average dating apps and match statistics.

I am not sure how reputable Zippia (or other sources) are when it comes to statistics but if accurate and similar 2022 the tech industry is still mostly men and caucasian.

I wasn’t able to find statistics on sexual orientation. There are a lot of companies vagluely bragging about how inclusive they are and not much in the way of stats.

With more and more people leaving mainstream sites like Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook I could see not having to login with another social media platform being what drives people towards a privacy focused dating app even if the actual privacy portion is more of an after thought for most users.

Thanks for the tip on Drunken Slug registrations being open. Just signed up

Yeah I’m wondering what exactly they meant. Maybe they were referring to the mobile applications?

I could see them having issues with the smaller user base or how a federated platform works with things like finding communities outside of your instance but those aren’t bugs.

I read some of their comments and it seems like this is a re-created account and they got into contact with the old moderators about it instead of going the /r/RedditRequest route. They did post on /r/RedditRequest about /r/LinuxQuestions.

They are aware of Lemmy and have commented the following

I use lemmy via the browser on my iPhone. It’s not amazing and it has a lot of bugs but I believe it’s a good platform - it’s just not ready yet

and

I’m very pro lemmy but as you say, it’s not quite ready yet. In the meantime, there’s an opportunity to help new users and maintain a decent space for everyone

In /r/Linux’s pinned post they stated that we have new mods despite being the only moderator but commented the following

(We’re waiting to hear back from another user who might be available)

At least so far it doesn’t sound like they are doing it maliciously or squatting on the subreddit. I feel like waiting until they had additional moderators or stating which moderator(s) gave them the go-ahead before making a pinned post along with mentioning that a lot of the community has attempted to migrate to Lemmy would have been a good idea.
