If I wanted to cancel Skyrim Grandma, I absolutely would say that out loud. Why in the world wouldn’t I?

This isn’t an ethics dilemma. The BDS movement is specifically calling for this boycott. I’m trying to stand in solidarity with them in my own small way.

Not casting aspersions or trying to cancel Skyrim Grandma, but the BDS movement is calling for a Microsoft (and by extension Bethesda) boycott. If you’re thinking about buying Oblivion Remastered, maybe don’t.

It’s always disappointing to see how much people on here hate people with mental disabilities. Under no circumstances would anyone be OK with comparing Donald Trump to another minority. I think even insulting him by calling him fat is perceived as too gauche. But ableism? 100% OK by most of Lemmy.

How did the breaker not trip on that? It had one job

Not quite the same thing, but there’s a project that lets you use TPM to protect your host keys: https://github.com/Foxboron/ssh-tpm-agent

[edit: its primary function is to work with clients but buried in the readme it also explains how to use it for host keys]

I mean… someone has to say it, right?

The ToS forbids satirical reviews. I’d start a review by reading out this portion of the ToS and then make a list of things I hate, just saying I’m not allowed to talk about this aspect of the game, or this aspect of the game, etc, etc.

I completely agree with his points but enshittification is such a cringey word

As someone from the US, a hearty thank you to Europeans. Not all of these will directly benefit me, but some of it will. Also, Apple has to be so fucking mad that they can’t keep their app store monopoly, even if just in Europe.

Here, I drew the word “Just” in this post

Ok, but we all should admit: .net is a terrible name.

IMO the best way to ensure that traffic always goes through a VPN is to use network namespaces. The wireguard website has an article describing the process. In a nutshell, you create a dedicated namespace to put the physical interface in, create the wireguard interface in that namespace, then move the wireguard interface to the root (“normal”) namespace. That way the only way to get traffic out without the VPN is to run a program in that dedicated namespace.

Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is released under a license in which the copyright holder grants users the rights to use, study, change, and distribute the software and its source code to anyone and for any purpose.

I had really hoped that by time we would finally have got beyond good & evil.
