The best thing about steam is you can buy keys from other sites

The worst thing about those sites is in most cases it results in the developer being ripped off because the keys are either stolen or purchased using stolen credit cards.

Countless devs have said they would rather people pirate their games than buy keys from those sites

War in Ukraine is still very much covered in the print/digital news. My two go-tos (the guardian and the bbc) both have dedicated section for the Russian Invasion.

I don’t watch television news, but I can imagine there is less coverage on that simply because there is not much suitable video content to be broadcast and what there is is usually several days, or even weeks old for operational reasons.

So if you had been trapped your while life in an open air prison camp. With limited food and water, electricity for just a few hours a day, and being bombed regularly, you would just sit back and accept that that was the way of the world?

Or would you fight back?

I don’t think any of us can say how we would react if we were Palestinian, but my gut feeling is, that having watched women and children killed in bombings for two decades, we would probably say all bets are off and do exactly what Hamas have done

I wouldn’t be surprised if it was real. But I’ll just assume Putin anyway.

I’m sure there was a mushroom involved somehow. Perhaps tripped on a mushroom which caused him to fall, get his head caught in a noose and inadvertently pull the trigger on a shotgun that just happened to be sitting there. The resulting blast blew him out of a 4th story window.

Mushroom poisoning…

Or what are some films that are significantly better than the book they were adapted

One of my favourite books, High Fidelity. I think I am in the age range and demo it was written for, so much rings true. When I heard there was a film coming out I was so excited, and then I read it was being moved from London and re-set in Chicago, and my heart sank.

Boy was I wrong. John Cusack was great, Todd Louiso was histerical, and it was Jack Black’s breakout performance. (I honestly am not sure he has been funnier since)

And the Chicago setting 100% worked, better than London would have

Cycling might be.

Cycling the sport isn’t. The sheer volume of support cars, media cars, motorbikes at every race is utter insanity.

That’s before we get into the sponsorship from oil and chemical companies, and at least two sportwashing teams

Yeh, little worried dev is gonna get a huge bill from Reddit

It’s been very quiet on that front

A lot of people (myself included) are using a modded version of Infinity that allows you to put in your own API key.

I can’t decide. I have used Infinity for years on Reddit. Been using connect and liftoff for Lemmy.

In some ways it feels so warm and familiar to be on Lemmy in infinity, but in some ways, I’m thinking, it’s Lemmy, not Reddit, it shouldn’t feel like Reddit.

I’m very torn

yup.

I’m on several linux channels, and im a mod on a fairly busy mental and physical health support site.

(the latter also has a web interface so 95% of the young un’s dont even realise they are on IRC)

Im on IRC daily

exactly this.

The first rule of Fight Club…

There’s a few providers who have lasted the course, some as long as ten years, but they don’t have superiptv.xyz websites, they don’t have facebook groups, or twitter accounts. They rely on word of mouth and handle their business on telegram/discord etc

Combination of constan tleft sided subscriptions list, and posts in overlay mode, really is a pleasure to use

The other 30% are the COD players currently missing somewhere in Ukraine

For many years comodo firewall and AV were one of the best, least obtrusive and consistently did well in detection charts etc.

Then I stopped using Windows so no idea what they are like now

Instances can just defederate with those servers

what is this wizardry

same. tried a bunch, liftoff has been by far the most reliable, and the best layout.

dunno about elsewhere, but the EU (and still be default the UK) has pretty strict regulations on mercury levels. In white tuna its a concern, but skipjack which is the bulk of canned tuna, its not an issue (if you are in the EU)

Just checked: Skipjack tuna which certainly in the UK is the bulk of the tinned tuna, is considered “low” for mercury, alongside things like trout, whitefish, mullet, salmon etc.

Tinned tuna. Inexpensive, high in protein and fish oils, low in fat and calories.

Probably not great in huge quantities because of iodine, but generally very healthy

I have been with the same ones for 6 years and they have had their ups and downs but on the whole have been reliable.

BUT…

Its like Fight Club… the first rule of having a good iptv service, is don’t talk about your iptv service.

Honestly, the good ones, are the ones that do just that and try and stay under the radar. If its got a megacheapiptv.com website, or a facebook group, then chances are it wont be around long.
