World News@lemmy.world•Italy now recognizes the crime of femicide and punishes it with life in prisonEnglish
93·1 month agoSometimes people run over others intentionally, so drag supports the recognition of vehicular murder, but yes, it’s usually manslaughter. A prior history between victim and accused or history of hateful conduct by the accused should be used as clues that a deeper investigation is required.

24·2 months agoDrag tried Bazzite last year and hated it for the same reason as you. Now drag’s on Cachy and loves it. Drag did accidentally break the swap file entry in fstab and dealt with months of slow booting and freezing, but drag accepts that as drag’s own fault and fixed it. If a user is good natured about fucking their computer up with sudo, cachy is a great OS, and most users won’t even do anything complicated enough to risk breaking their computer that bad. Bazzite is for users who can’t fix it or won’t accept it when they do something stupid with sudo.

111·2 months agoYeah, a lady got third degree vagina burns and a fused labia from McDonald’s coffee. She needed surgery and skin grafts. She sued them and asked for her surgery bills paid, but the judge noticed that McDonald’s had already got a lot of complaints about serving dangerously hot coffee, and he decided to award her one full day’s worth of profits to teach them a lesson.

Games@lemmy.world•Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows — as Windows 10 dies, gaming on Linux is more viable than everEnglish
3·2 months agoSome games with Kernel Level Anticheat do work on Linux, because the KLA doesn’t actually check if it has access. Drag can imagine that the next generation technology of Linux gaming will be add-ons to WINE that lie to KLAs and tell them they have access. Like how yt-dlp lies to youtube and says it’s a browser.
Corporations will claim using these programs violates terms of service and is grounds for a ban. Players will respond to the bans by submitting refund requests for games they got banned from. And if we’re lucky, Valve will respond to the refund requests by demanding corporations support Linux in some form, whether it be removing the KLA or making it work on Linux.

One of the games that was removed was a horror game about a stalker, which was made to raise awareness of sexual violence. Is that a rape game?
Heartbreaking: the worst person you know just made a great point

Games@lemmy.world•The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impactEnglish
8·6 months agoSony has to make a Spiderman movie every few years even though DVDs of the old ones are still being sold, but Ubisoft can just delete games forever and they can never be played again.

631·6 months agoCopyright was invented so artists would be able to sell their art, and more art would be made.
When copyright is protected on a product that’s no longer sold, less art is made.
When a copyright holder stops selling their art, copyright protections should immediately cease, and they should be responsible for copyright obligations - releasing the source code to the public. Use it or lose it!

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Splitgate 2's open beta doesn't support Linux desktopEnglish
71·8 months agoProbably more convenient to download the cracked version without the anticheat. That’ll work on Linux.
The idea of “voting with your wallet” doesn’t work in most cases, because your only options are to vote in favour, or not vote. Boycotts aren’t votes against a product, because they don’t hurt companies. They just refuse to help them.
Piracy isn’t stealing, but since companies think it is, piracy is the third option we need - the no vote.

Games@lemmy.world•"You can't just have Geralt for every single game" says his voice actor, and if you think The Witcher 4 making Ciri the protagonist is "woke," then "read the damn books"English
24·8 months agoThat’s why drag personally believes all RPGs with character customisation should have gender selection unless there’s a very good reason why not. The one good exception drag has seen is Pentiment - in that game you’re a mediaeval writer who hangs out with the monks at the Abbey. That story can’t be authentic with a woman player character. But that’s a very rare situation. Even games with named main characters can have gender select. Look at Prey and Mass Effect. It’s an accessibility feature.

52·8 months agoThis is understandable if someone has a strong gender identity. Most people don’t have much of a gender so it’s less important to them.

107·8 months agoWoke means being aware that an interaction with a cop is a life or death situation. Cops aren’t your friends, they’re not here to protect you. They’re a threat, motivated by cruelty and love of power. When dealing with a cop, you have to speak gently, keep your hands visible at all times, and declare your intentions for every action. Or you could die. You could still die even if you do all that.




Drag would like Arkham Origins please and thank you. Drag already played Knight and is curious if the rest of the series is good. It’s one of the few games drag 100%ed
