Oh, was this why DuckDuckGo was down yesterday?
Oh, was this why DuckDuckGo was down yesterday?
Not OP, but I’m aware of it just from seeing it mentioned in threads like this. There might be a community or list available showing all these cool things but a lot of the time it just goes around by word-of-mouth.
Don’t threaten me with a good time!
I mean the minute you see “Copilot bad, from windowscopilot[dot]news” should surely raise some flags
I work at an MSP and while it wasn’t LastPass, when you search “Microsoft Authenticator” in the app store there’s a similar looking Authenticator app that’s also blue, and because it’s an ad it shows up first. Had a user install that and was confused why they weren’t able to get MFA working.
Hey, I just want to say you’re a real one for actually coming back with the Reddit comment and even a source essentially debunking what you said. This is why I love Lemmy, thank you.
I did a quick bit of research on this, and I wasn’t really able to find anything to corroborate this. I’d be interested to know if there is a proper source to this though
Edit: there can be some concern for those metal particles, although this is no different for any metal dust by the looks of things https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/do-old-hard-drives-contain-toxic-materials.1623183/#post-11646780
Steam also has so many features that cracks usually can’t or don’t offer. Friends system, anticheat, workshop modding, cosmetics, multiplayer (although this is actually a case of it usually being locked behind Steam), fast updates, Proton, just to name a few.
I mean you could easily get a cheap cabled headset to use with it.
I still have a early 2000s (I think that’s the era anyway) LaserJet 2200dn and it’s done nothing of that sort, even on my spare actual Windows XP laptop. Insanity that their more consumer brand printers had those problems by '07
I’m not 100% in the loop on things they’ve done, but I think the main thing is that there are better alternatives out there such as Signal for keeping in touch with friends and family, but oftentimes those friends/family just don’t want to have yet another messaging app so it leaves you needing Discord to keep in touch.
I’ve got one of those cheap Rockchip rk322x TV boxes and it took me fucking literal hours to get the Mali driver working and the performance, while noticeably better, was still way worse than if I ran it’s stock Android image on it.
Basically that’s how I use it, just a secure VPN tunnel to my home hosted stuff while I’m out. Painless to set up.
For me it’s gotta be Portainer, Vaultwarden, and Tailscale. Everything else (FreshRSS, Heimdall, Paperless) is just cream.
THANK YOU. I’m someone who loves Linux and daily drives it, but it feels like Lemmy’s userbase is just those who moved from r/linuxmasterrace who don’t understand that just because Linux doesn’t cost you any dollars, doesn’t mean it doesn’t cost time, time which people just may not have.
Good grief, I had a lady behind the counter try to berate me onto the store’s rewards card and she wasn’t as pushy as this comment.
Just from my observations from owning a 2015 MBP with 8GB of memory, it is easy to be fooled into thinking memory management is much better on macOS because you can effectively have more open than you would on an equivalent Windows laptop with 8GB memory.
From what I understand though, the SSD is used to compensate as swap a lot more than Windows, and I believe this is causing a lot of ewaste with the M1 Macs in particular being effectively binned because the SSDs are worn out on them from swapping and they’re soldered.
I still have my 1000H from 2010 and even used it for school and uni right up until 2019 when I no longer was doing on campus work and I could do everything on my desktop.
Granted, I went down the rabbit hole of Linux on it around the 2015 mark because Windows 7 onwards was too much for it, and it always had overheating issues, but it aided my Linux addiction and was the very laptop that got me interested in programming so I personally am happy I kept it.
That being said, I also totally get why a MacBook was just a much better value propositions, and if mine wasn’t my 10th birthday present I probably would’ve loved doing the same thing.
I’m in the same boat, really wanting a 2015 11" MBA to go with my 2015 13" MBP, but ultimately I decided on fixing up a 12" Latitude 7280 I got from e-waste (looked to be water damaged, keyboard was unreliable and battery would die at 40%). So far it’s been pretty great, and will likely entirely replace my MBP while also being more convenient to carry around.
Short answer: GeyserMC sidesteps that player authentication process Java players need to do
Long answer:
I’ve used and set up GeyserMC before. It sounds like the server you’re joining has online-mode on, which requires all Java players who are joining to have a valid Java account and current authentication.
GeyserMC, being a mod to the server, entirely sidesteps this entire process. Your Bedrock cracked client requests to join and GeyserMC, being the way your client communicates with the server, just let’s you in. It just sends your client the chunks, the entities, etc. and lets you interact with them, and Java players are shown an additional Player entity (being you).
GeyserMC actually has authentication a server owner can set up that does require a valid Bedrock account or valid Java account, but it seems the server(s) you’re playing hasn’t set this up.
