It said it was free to download and use but a convenience charge for getting it on Steam.

But like you, I’m also happy with Heroic, and there’s also Lutris.

I’m only one season in, but they address this, right? basically saying humans are stubborn, and that they thought the Babylon project was the last hope for the human race so they really fought to make it happen.

Or if they give a bad review they won’t get a free phone to review next time.

Ai capabilities turned off in Europe

I don’t know the backstory but I’m guessing it’s slurping up your privacy so hard it’s illegal in Europe.

Haha, you never know if you’re talking to the Europeans that thing 1Gbps is slow, or the Americans that think 10Mbps is fast 😆

Oh speeds are great! Hundreds of Mbps. Depends on what you’re after. Not sure if they go into the Gbps, but I feel like I remember some locations do. My internet is only 300Mbps so can’t test higher. VPN speeds from a random local server are normally about 280Mbps. Not sure if that would be higher if my internet was faster.

I haven’t had any connection drops, and you can choose the location. Their guides also explain which locations work for streaming services if you want to check out the catalog from other countries. And they have specific servers that have P2P enabled if you want to use bittorrent.

I haven’t used Proton Drive for photos. It’s worth noting Proton Drive is a relatively new offering. The lack of Linux client is also a show stopper for me, as I don’t have a Windows computer to run it on. I’m keen to use it though when they get a client going.

The proton mail mobile app is fine, I use it and don’t have complaints. But I don’t like that I can’t use a different app if I want to 😆. It also doesn’t let you add other third party accounts into the app with IMAP so I have two apps while I transition.

I’ve used it, but haven’t used others so can’t compare!

What did you want to know?

I’ve recently signed up for Proton Unlimited, and have been playing with things. If you’re interested in the drive space, note there’s no Linux sync client (it’s Lemmy so I feel obligated to let you know), only the web client. There’s a windows client though.

The VPN is pretty easy. Log in, quick connect. Or manually select a server.

Needing bridge software for IMAP and having to use their email app on mobile is a bit annoying but it’s good enough that it’s fine.

I’ve found their help guides pretty good.

I don’t know why but I chuckled at this more than anything else I’ve seen on the internet today. Maybe just laughing at my dumb brain trying to work it out before seeing the text and realising it was AI.

Ah I hadn’t considered Ebikes or physical tools. With the example of alt text, I had thought the post was about digital tools like screen readers .

This is the first I’ve heard of people blaming accessibility tools for anything.

You gave the example of alt text being used to hide slurs, but I’d be pretty confident this would be handled the same way as if they used them in the open. It would be brought to an admin or mods attention, they would confirm, and take appropriate action. Trolls regularly use slurs in the open so I don’t see why this situation would be handled differently.

Are there other examples of accessibility tools being used for bad things?

I don’t think penguins are included in the population count, otherwise NZ would have another 500k population.

I’m pretty sure there’s a Big Antarctica conspiracy to keep penguins off the map, hiding their army of 44m penguins.

It’s there. I’d argue Australia is worse off in this map.

I’ve been watching Babylon 5. I’m pretty sure I saw it recommended on Lemmy some time back. No one mentioned it started with a movie!

So anyway, I’ve watched the first season, and then I watched the movie The Gathering.

I’m too worried to play this. Is it gonna feel like they made more levels for World of Goo or is it gonna redefine casual gaming?

Someone want to do the work?

I like KISS, because it’s different.

I have it set up with a blank screen, with a small number of pinned apps. So my home screen is a search bar at the bottom with 5 or so small icons above it.

When I tap the search bar, it shows me my most used apps. I can search for anything else, and choose to view the whole list if I want. You can also web search from it a bit like the Google one but without the data harvesting.

I also use gestures. A swipe left, right, up, or down on the home screen opens various apps for quick access.

Previously I used PieLauncher which was even more different.

Yes, exactly. This is from the article:

In 2022, Air New Zealand adopted a 2030 target to cut its emissions by almost 29%.

It was much more ambitious than a 5% reduction goal over the same period set by the global aviation industry.

The worrying thing is not that they can’t meet their goal (they probably knew it was optimistic), it’s that they didn’t announce a new target. They said they are working on one, but why not work on the new goal then make the announcement?

From what I’ve seen, they aren’t building the games, they are licensing existing ones. There are decent games in the mix.

Ah yeah though not directly mentioned, I guess it does imply that.

Are gamers getting older? It would be interesting to see how this breaks down by age.

I’m getting older. I have 3 kids and no time. 10 years ago I had no kids and 3 time. Now when I play, I just put it on the easiest setting and play it like an interactive movie.

How come the apps are controlling your keyboard? Shouldn’t it use your phone’s selected keyboard?

Not only that, but it had nothing to do with the content, and everything to do with how she was sending the link to loads of people (google said she was spamming, she apparently said she wasn’t, the top HN comment says sending it to alpha/beta readers though I didn’t see this mentioned in the article).
