Depending on the context, it is a slur in English.

Vanguard is proven spyware. If you installed that shit, I’d wipe the OS and reflash the BIOS.

So absolutely nothing new? DLSS has always been slop.

EDIT: Lol @ the downvotes, enjoy your fake, blurry frames. Reminder that artifacting used to be only for dying GPUs

That’s still not it, though. Extracting maximum revenue is just the default state for all things in capitalism, so it is not a qualifier or distinction that is useful to identify enshitification.

Enshitification is a model specifically for platforms. It’s not enshitification if it isn’t a platform; that’s just sparkling greed.

Wow the person that wrote this article clearly does not understand how open-source or piracy works. Using a closed-source game engine is not a factor in mitigating piracy, at all. Using an open-source game engine does not make Slay the Spire 2 open-source “by proxy” or otherwise.

Okay, so yeah if you’re not a software developer, then forking it and developing the software is not an option for you. Your only option is to simply continue waiting for all of the software you use to be created by other people and handed to you, like you do already.

software gets forked and continued all the time

If you understand that this is true, then I don’t really understand your argument. If this happens all the time for other software, then why won’t it for Lutris? You’re just saying that people who are not software developers cannot develop software? Okay… yeah.

Those people are already completely dependent on software developers and their choices for all of the software they use, whether closed or open source, anyway.

It’s not like just anyone can fork any project and continue developing it.

Why not? Happens all the time.

I hear this argument a lot about many things

Perhaps there’s a reason you hear it so often about so many things?

This same principle also applies to the fediverse. An instance makes policy decisions that you don’t agree with? That’s okay, you can always host your own instance and make your own policies.

While I may not agree that letting AI write the code is a good idea, the complaints are dumber. It’s open source. Just fork it if you have a problem with it.

Trying to hide it is shitty and immature, though. Even more reason to just fork it. They are proving they don’t have the maturity or transparency needed to run a project like that.

I used to use https://html.duckduckgo.com/ as my search engine before I started self-hosting SearXNG. The duckduckgo website works fine on a phone, the same as desktop

Mobile firefox is compatible with desktop addons, so you can still use ublock origin on your phone. I also use pihole to cover my whole local network and wireshark to VPN my phone to my local network when out of the house. If you’re on iPhone you’re probably just out of luck.

I generally do everything in-browser and do not use any other mobile apps, so no youtube app, etc.

This is the first I’ve ever heard of following autoplay videos lol

Why would I ever want to see youtube comments? Literally zero impact for me.

I often entirely forget that youtube and most of the internet is plagued with ads. It’s a shock to use a family member’s phone or laptop that does not have adblock

That’s not at all what that means, nor does it make any sense.

Software would ask the OS for the age range of the user (under 13, 13-15, 16-17, 18+). The software would implement content filters based on these age ranges.

The OS is only responsible for requiring the user to set an age and providing the age range to software.

Yes you have.

So this is basically just misinformation. There is no age or identity verification as part of this bill, the age is self-reported by the user and you could select any age you want. The bill requires the operating system to have users select an age when creating an account. The intention is that parents will select their child’s age when setting up their child’s accounts on phones and computers, to age-gate them from accessing certain software or websites.

Regardless, I don’t support this feature being mandatory, because it limits parents’ choices. Parents should be able to choose to disable this feature entirely or allow their children to use an OS that does not include this feature, if that is what they feel is appropriate for their child.

Odd it’s not the guys who should be removed for being assholes to girls though.

Can you quote where I made this claim, please?

No, actually I’ve provided the solution to the problem. You just didn’t like it.
