  Just say you are doing it, until a few million in you don’t even need to start it.

  You can make a lemmy community in a few clicks if you don’t want to run your own instance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Starting today, Heroic Games Launcher is indexing their Discord server⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Agreed. Discord is a chatroom not a forum.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A note about the security of your Steam account⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Unique is probably the most important thing. Well, and not using “password123” of course. As long as its not easy to guess the main thing you want to avoid is password reuse because you don’t know how securely its being stored. May well get leaked as plaintext some day which some of mine certainly have been over time.

  That is when I learnt that no, a “very secure” password that you use everywhere isn’t very secure at all.

  From this patch onward, gliding will be performed using a glider rather than with Pals

  How? Nintendo don’t own flying mounts surely. WoW did that ages ago and I am sure other games have as well.

  The only phone I have that can run a web browser is running Linux.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So user error

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Perplexity CEO says its browser will track everything users do online to sell 'hyper personalized' ads⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I presume this browser is going to have an install base of about 1? Depending on how many testers they have.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Liz Truss to launch her own ‘uncensorable’ social media platform⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That actually sounds like a good idea. Can you post images? Might start a twink of the week poll.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X4: Foundations, the space sim that lets you take an empire to war, will let you just talk things out in its next update⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Diplomacy. Interesting idea, don’t see it catching on. Far more pleasing to build a huge empire that can outproduce your enemies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo is Bringing Us Kicking and Screaming Into the $80 Game Era with the Switch 2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Been playing Veloren lately. Lot of time in CDDA too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo is Bringing Us Kicking and Screaming Into the $80 Game Era with the Switch 2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Hardly kicking and screaming when you can just turn away.

  My game purchases this year have all been under £10. Last year the most expensive was Factorio: Space Age which I bought directly from their site. Most of my playtime this year has been in FOSS games and a few small indies like Soldak games.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I love Easy Red 2 on my deck!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I like games where bullets are lethal, played Verdun, Tannenberg and Isonzo quite a bit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I love Easy Red 2 on my deck!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Bought it ages ago but didn’t really play much. Might try and actually join multiplayer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨China announces plan to label all AI-generated content with watermarks and metadata.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just add a 6th finger to all images. Shame that joke made more sense a few years ago.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My SO got a steamdeck today, and it's a lot better than I imagined it to be⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Linux has never required you to sign up with an online account, you can always just make a local account.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How The Myth Of The Solo Indie Dev Makes People Think Indie Games Are Cheap To Create - Aftermath⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Cheap is relative. Was speaking to an indie dev who lost half a million of his savings on making a game that wasn’t very popular and eventually he had to stop working on it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Power bank to Steam Deck full chrages.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What is the typical power consumption of the steamdeck when in use? If you wanted to get an approximation as to how long a battery would last for. Also how much is efficiency likely to matter? If it was 30W and you had a 30Wh battery how likely is a 1 hour lifespan going to be? Would efficiency just be a rounding error or something like cut in half.
