Steam lawsuits in a nutshell in c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world
[–] lorty@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 week ago

Remember when steam introduced the 2h refund policy out of their own volition rather than being forced by multiple governments? Yeah me neither.

Missing the classics "Why do you love me?" and "Are you proud of me?".

How can I wear a skirt at work if I'm not religious? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] lorty@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 weeks ago

Work from home or check the company's dress code before applying. But as most have said: if your presented gender matches the "expected" one for wearing skirts, you'll never face problems doing so, unless you want to work at a factory or something.

Do you prefer hanging out with the reactionaries?

Should I teach students who doesn't know computer science C or JavaScript first? in c/programming@programming.dev
[–] lorty@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 weeks ago

The fact that every computer has a browser where they can practice javascript probably makes it the better option. Python would probably require, on Windows, some setup that isn't what you want to spend time on, and may be a barrier to them trying stuff on their own time at home.

It's okay when it's OUR backdoor, it's not okay when it's their speculative backdoor.

I know we take forever with projects but there really isn't a reason to upgrade once you're well on your way right?

I know they are trying but so far it seems the ad-blockers are winning because I've not noticed any interruptions or problems with comments so far.

Worker regulations mostly. Since drivers aren't employees, they get no benefits whatsoever.

is there any reason to try CachyOS over EndeavourOS or are they pretty much the same? (lemmy.ml)

I'm currently on PopOS 22 and I'm in the mood to try something different. I mostly game but I do need my system to have support for the everyday tasks I sometimes need to do, so I fell bazzite is a no go.

I see a lot of people recommending Cachy, will it be a smooth experience for someone used to linux? Is Endeavour a better choice? Will I have issued with my PS3 eye camera and x52 stick?

20 years later, still holds up pretty well! (lemmy.ml)
 

Got Tachyon: The Fringe from GOG recently. I loved this game when I was a kid, and you know what? The game is still lots of fun! The graphics are still alright and it ran out of the box on Linux. My X52 even works with it!

I miss this era of short but sweet games.

OC looks like it's FF V inspired. I really hope the weapons look good (the hildi weapons didn't really do it for me).

How are ProtonDB medals awarded? (lemmy.ml)
 

I was looking at the protondb for Battlefield V and it has a gold medal despite the fact that it has been literally unplayable (the game won't even start) fpr 6 months now.

Are medals impossible to lose? Or do they run on some sort of manual verification? Is there some way to request a game to have it's grade changed.

For reference, the change in this case was the addition of EA Anti-cheat, which breaks linux compatibility and borked a considerable number of games, even older ones.

There's maybe one fight that isn't the best, and that's it. In fact the amount of work they put into the effects and presentation is above what we've seen so far.
