You can use Aegis and/or Yubico Authenticator instead, that's what I do.

Never give up,
each eye you poke out is one less they can use for data collection.

It's a slow process and they'll grow more eyes,
but the less they have on you,
the more private you'll be.

My "nExT gEn" update experience:

  1. Get baited to re-play Fallout 4 through the new TV show + Next Gen update
  2. Be disappointed since the graphics aged like milk + Official HD texture DLC sucks
  3. Be disappointed since the update broke nearly all mod support
  4. Roll back to the release before the Next Gen update + Uninstall the Official HD texture DLC
  5. Install 205 mods, and happily play with nearly everything in 4K

FYI, most mods I installed are from:

Correct, ChatGPT is proprietary spyware.

If the interface would support self hosted (local/offline) LLMs, then I'm sure people would be much more interested.

Suyu is the most popular + actively developed afaik.
https://suyu.dev/

They host their code on their own Forgejo instance:
https://git.suyu.dev/explore/repos

Which is more DMCA proof then Github/Gitlab.

I hope ForgeFed will go into production soon,
then we can synchronize the code in between multiple Forgejo instances in a federated fashion.

Citra, internal resolution x9,
and you've got yourself an early access to this :)

No need to pay Nintendont, the law-suit company that makes games on the side, again for a game you already bought in the past.

Points that can help them change to FOSS:

  • Cool new features not available in proprietary alternatives
  • Awareness of privacy risks & issues
  • Battery life improvements
  • Storage size reduction
  • Security improvements

Sites that can help them find FOSS alternatives:

In my experience it's extremely hard to make someone not interested in software to try out new FOSS apps though..

I won't disclose where I store mine.

But I'd recommend to:

  • Not backup your PW manager's database + key file in the same location
    (That would decrease security, x1 data breach would allow them to easily brute force your PW DB since they'll have the key)
  • Not go with a PW manager that does not allow you to choose a location where you desire to backup to (Seen plenty of mainstream PW managers getting data breached by now, so going with a cloud, which is not solely used for PW managers, has an advantage imo, since they tend to be less targeted by hackers)

I've been happily using KeeWeb + Keepass2Android for years now:

2 words for you:
Password Manager

Get around to using one :P

I only remember my password to my PW manager, which additionally is encrypted with a key file to increase security.

The rest of my PWs are 128 character long random generated PWs, with capitals, numbers, special characters etc..

They might have been doing it for longer then I've been aware of.

But this is a (small) list of things that caught my attention and made me despise them:

  • Garry's Mod takedowns
  • Yuzu + Citra takedowns
  • Relic Castle takedown
  • Palworld Mod takedowns
  • BOTW Mod takedowns
  • PointCrow DMCAs
  • Gary Bowser's life ruined
 

Just finished writing out a lengthy comment,
with the up/downsides I can see
on each of the code forges I currently deem promising,
on the Github Discussion "Alternatives to GitHub"

And I was wondering, out of following 2,
which code forge would you guys prefer and why?

 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/12733354

As you all know or may not know,
Nintendo has taken down Yuzu,
see following post for more info on that:
https://lemmy.world/post/12728163

Now it's important to preserve the code base of Yuzu,
so hopefully someday, once things cooled down a little,
an active fork can stick it's head up.

After looking at the Azure DevOps Pipelines
of yuzu-emu/yuzu,
I noticed the latest pipeline ran 8 hours ago
as of writing this post:

Which tells us that the latest commit,
was a merge of PR #13198 from
zhaobot/tx-update-20240301020652

This fork,
is the most up-to-date one / contains the latest commit
done to Yuzu before the take down:
https://github.com/zhaobot/yuzu/tree/tx-update-20240301020652

I encourage you all to pull, star and fork this fork,
not only the master branch, but all branches!
The more copies floating out there,
the better the project will be preserved.

You can pull the code base to your local machine, with:

git clone https://github.com/zhaobot/yuzu.git

(Requires https://git-scm.com/)

And you can pull in all the branches,
as described in this Github Gist:
https://gist.github.com/grimzy/a1d3aae40412634df29cf86bb74a6f72

PSMD in Citra looking neat! (discuss.tchncs.de)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by Rikj000@discuss.tchncs.de to c/pokemon@lemmy.ml
 

Playing some Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon,
through Citra Canary v2798 with:

And I gotta say,
I'm happily impressed by how good it looks!
Apart from the low resolution font/texts,
I'd forget that I'm playing a mobile title from 2015 😄

Edit:
I disabled the High Resolution Textures,
because they cause:

  • Random game freezes in connection orb screens
  • Slowdowns while in villages / dungeons / connection orb screens
  • Incorrect black / white rendering of clouds / earth during cut scenes

Am I the only one getting agitated by the word AI (Artificial Intelligence)?

Real AI does not exist yet,
atm we only have LLMs (Large Language Models),
which do not think on their own,
but pass turing tests
(fool humans into thinking that they can think).

Imo AI is just a marketing buzzword,
created by rich capitalistic a-holes,
who already invested in LLM stocks,
and now are looking for a profit.
