Inspired by the ongoing Resurgence giveaway, I thought it might be fun to discuss some of our favourite Trek games. Underappreciated gems are particularly welcome!
My fiance is a professor and things I’ve heard about the last few years blow my mind. It’s not so much what they are doing exactly, but how shocked and offended they get if she asks them to stop.
The Infinity Blade or Minigore series, for example, or anything made by Illusion Labs. These games are genius and most consoles don’t even have a touch screen or utilise it well like some smartphone games do....
The vast majority of mobile games are not designed to be good games. They are designed to be addictive vehicles for advertising and micro transactions.
Everyone seems to have a story like this, which makes me think that we might actually be just as loud as the people we complain about without realizing it. Think about it. It’s not like we can actually hear what we sound like from the floor below while we are “softly walking around” upstairs.
Checked Fediverse Observer and whole bunch of server has been decommissioned because of which users can’t login and because they can’t login , Lemmy is losing active users. Any plans to fix this ? I am more concerned about the content thats lost.
The Elder Lord Farzghiqud absorbs the data into his eternal glorious form where it will be analyzed and used for the eventual enslavement of your species.
I still like Google in general. I don’t agree with everything they do, but in total I feel that I get more value from using their products than I would be able to get from other products. In my opinion, the minimal cost to my privacy is far outweighed by the value-add.
If that’s not true for others, I’m not going to give them a hard time about it. Use what you want to use.
When you comment to Bluetooth, it asks your phone to share call, contact and SMS information.
So they are intercepting your calls and messages with your permission? I don’t see the problem. If you don’t want them to do that, click “deny” when your phone asks if you want to share them with the car.
No, it did really happen. Usually with apps that didn’t have very high installation counts. I have first hand experience with it as the author and publisher of an app. People could literally search for the exact name of my app and get all kinds of other results, but not my app. I’d have to send them a direct link to the listing.

I used to refer to going to the gym as the “farm work simulator”. It always amazed me that society progressed to the point where physical labor isn’t necessary, but we chose to pay money, so that we can pretend to do it, in order to live longer
How would you even go about enforcing this? Anyone with even basic skills can write a very simple web browser that just makes http requests and displays the output
Hmm, I’ve always felt the opposite. Every time I see something advertising itself as “premium” it always drops down a few quality notches in my head. If your product is that good, why do you have to tell people about it?
“Officials said that Israel and Egypt were prepared to let foreigners leave the Strip which is under heavy Israeli bombardment, but Hamas had refused.”
Landlords being allowed to permanently take rentals off the market (by pretending to do construction work on them forever) to artificially reduce supply and drive up prices is a major problem. This practice used to be blocked by inspection laws that were removed.
Republican Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, in his first remarks after being elected Wednesday afternoon, told Members of Congress that “Scripture” and “the Bible” are clear that they have been “ordained” by God.
For end users, a superapp is an application that provides a set of core features while also giving access to independently developed miniapps. For app developers, a superapp is an application integrated with the capabilities of platforms and ecosystems that allows third-parties to develop and publish miniapps.
I may be getting old, but that sounds suspiciously like a “web browser”
V carving refers to using a conical drill bit on a CNC machine, usually in wood, in order to create interesting patterns that can take advantage of depth.
I’m looking for some help researching how to clean long tubes, such as maybe 1/4 inch pickup tubes for a water pump that may be 20 feet long. I’ve been able to find hydration bladder cleaning kits that allow for cleaning the first 2 or 3 feet of these tubes, but beyond some sort of high pressure/high flow system with high...
Not that I don’t believe them, but it’s odd that none of the videos from YouTubers with early access have shown that kind of performance. It makes me wonder if they are trying to set lower expectations for some reason.
