I dearly miss Playnite on Linux. Having Games from a lot of different sources, only Lutris supports more than Steam/Epic/GoG, and it’s missing a lot of features from Playnite and it’s plugins. Managing my Gamelibrary without it sucks.
Ah yes, the famously communist Russian Federation. The RF is nakedly an imperial fascist regime that doesn’t even have communist window dressing, it boggles the mind that self-proclaimed communists and anti-imperialists support them.

about 5500$ in 20 years, so
edit: i’ve gotta remind myself to not fall asleep while commenting
first, i was shocked seeing the amount, then i calculated the daily costs, which were around 0,60€, and was relieved.
as a pedestrian i have to say that i never use my blinker.
joke aside, there’s not much that aggravates me more than drivers not using their signals when they can turn either left or right, but cannot continue forward, like near the street i live in that i frequently have to cross. since they HAVE to turn, i have to wait for them to either remember that they have turn signals, or wait until they have enlightened me about their decision by making them a fact.
don’t be an ass, use your turn signals to make your intentions known for the weaker parties on the road.
That’s an education problem, not a privacy issue. Children also deserve privacy, especially when they have awful and potentially abusive parents. Also, we shouldn’t embed the thought that they are being observed 24/7 in our children - that makes only for self-censoring adults.
If you want an alternative to Slay the Spire i can recommend Monster Train; you mainly summon different Hellspawn and cast spells, which gives it more of an Magic the Gathering feel.
If you want an ARPG fix and have thumb buttons on your mouse you can try Chronicon, don’t let the gfx stop you, it’s an excellent hack&slash game, and you can put all your skills onto 1 button if you like - i use the middle and the right button for most builds and thumb keys for pots
If you want a new spin on Darkest Dungeon, give Iratus - Lord of the Dead a try. Or if you played a lot of Darkest Dungeon and want more of it, try Black Reliquary, a huge (and free!) mod with a lot of new mechanics!
Going into the same direction as Into the Breach is Shotgun King - the final Checkmate. It’s really fun and the higher difficulties really make your brains work out. Workshop support with lots of extra content included! Also great for Turn-based Tactics is Invisible Inc., putting you in control of an spy agency which has been hit hard and tries to recover.
For arcade games i can recommend Utopia must fall - it really captures the spirit of old arcade games, but feels real fresh. You can also go for Nova Drift, which is also an excellent arcade game.
Then there is Cultist Simulator and its spiritual successor, Book of Hours. It’s basically a card based riddle game, and very atmospheric.
There is always Shattered Pixel Dungeon - it is also available on Steam or Gog, but you can download and play it for free from the link i provided.
I think your collarbone might have healed until you’ve finished that list, have fun!
I’ve watched Hellsing Ultimate at least 8 times now, and i’ve had the itch for a new run for the last few days. I will never be able to get through my watchlist… Watching Nazi Vampires vs Catholic Crusaders is simply great, i just love the invasion of london part
yeah, i didn’t want to get into the private tracker stuff, since i never used one before; i described pretty much the ressources you have as a “commoner”. I am aware that there are many specialized sources out there, where a lot more obscure material is available, but most of those take special effort to gain access to.
If it’s hard to find, first i try searching via jackett integration into qbittorrent. if unsuccessful, i go over to xrel.to and search for it there (its a pure information site, don’t ask for downloads there pls). You can verify if there has ever been a release of the specific title, and if, you can see the exact name of the release. if you can’t find it there too, you can be pretty sure that there never was a release, neither p2p nor scene. if it’s newer content, you can try to search later; if its older content, go buy it and upload it yourself (safely!) so the next person doesn’t have the same issue.
i’m pretty sure that there are laws regarding required archival, but laws seem optional for this administration.
The white house trusting signal is nice, but using it to circumvent official communication tools which document messages for the archives is not the way it should be used - they used the “disappearing messages”-feature as well. This usage is more in line with criminal organizations like the mafia or yakuza.
thanks, i love it! i’m just browsing, and the channels seem all to be really the good stuff! i’m a bit weirded out by the secret agent radio, but it’s a good kind of weird lol
I don’t have any opinion on them regarding their performance. with proton there exist case files which show that they do not keep logs when not court ordered to do so (in the case i know about, they had to be court ordered to activate logs for login attempts to a specific mailbox). I haven’t heard anything bad about Mullvad either.
Windscribe seems to be fine, but they had at least one big misstep where a private key for OpenVPN was saved locally on a server that then was seized by authorities. PIA, on the other hand, had no issues hiring a criminally convicted CTO and merged with Kape Technologies, which was in the business of creating browser toolbars containing potientially unwanted programs.They have been audited in 2022 tho, so maybe they are alright now…
Thanks, I will take a look in the morning!
I use protonvpn, which has a very nice windows client and a not so nice, but functional Linux client (don’t know about MacOS). Port forwarding works either way, and you have the option of using wireguard or OpenVPN. Their website has a lot of tutorials.
I liked mullvad too, and they are cheaper, but I switched a few months ago because I got a deal for protonvpn and wanted to check out if port forwarding makes any difference for getting my share ratio back in order (and with a seedbox already in mind)
thanks, when the time comes i will do so if i’m stuck :-)
thanks for the suggestion, i will take a look at it!
protonvpn does portforward, i am currently using it that way
thanks for the info! I’m already covered on the VPN front incl port forwarding at least, opsec is a thing for me since the music industry started sending out love letters to napster users in europe :-)
i’d rather do it myself, since i want to learn as much as possible, including setting up an -arr stack. what hoster is performant and not too expensive?
I had the same issue with my router, and i had to go into Advanced -> Socket Backlog Size and set it to 1 (default is 5) to completely fix it. Do you have a TP-Link router as well?
that was literally me yesterday when i had to backup my wifes windows pc. maybe i can get her to switch on her old pc when support runs out…
