idk I was using a 12 year old cpu and it worked fine for gaming. Only upgraded because I wanted to compile stuff in reasonable timeframes.

But they just personally don’t want that on their instance while they create the lemmy software that allows for everyone to speak their opinions.

Yeah noticed this when I started to make chatgpt write more sentences in essay’s I was doing. When you make chatgpt write the next sentence in a paragraph 9/10 times it just rewrites what you wrote in a different way.

You can just right click on the url bar to add search engines to firefox, I did that for the nixos package repository and youtube.

As for duck duck go, you can try searxng instances though you are putting your trust in some random admins in that case.

I think a big problem with apple doing this is that they literally decided to make the body of the device out of steel, which is much heavier than other materials like plastic. The bigscreen beyond is the currently lightest headset, but the only things in the headset are the displays, processing and tracking are outside of the headset and no passthrough cameras. So basically with current lens and display technology its still not possible to get glasses like formfactor in VR headsets, let alone with integrated cameras, processing, movable ipd, eye tracking, etc.

They also didn’t erase the game, they have a beta in CS2 for playing legacy CS:GO, although there aren’t any more official servers you can still play on community servers.

Cpus have had integrated graphics for years… My 11 year old cpu has awful graphics that I try to turn off usually.

osu! is a competitive game that is open source, and its arguably the most popular rhythm game right now and there’s not much of a cheating problem.

You can find a lot of old school websites hosted on neocities, though a lot of them are more of an art project than an actual website.

There are modern webrings. Dang the yesterweb webring shut down, that was a really good one.

That list doesn’t have literally every DRM free game, almost every VR game I have doesn’t have DRM and they are not on the list.

yt-dlp has a command-line option to download videos while using sponsor block.

Minecraft actually gets better FPS when you don’t limit its FPS. When I play at 60 fps, it usually dips into the 50’s and 40’s, while when its unlimited, there are no noticeable dips.

I’m pretty sure its technically copyright infringement to draw the characters (if they have a design in the book in images) or write fanfic, but no one cares. The only fan stuff that actually get taken down is nintendo fan games and in the past, videos on nintendo games without permission.

Its funny because a lot of people do this even though its completely unhelpful in solving their problem.

I think this might be changing in the U.S., because my friend group only talks on Discord. I don’t even have their phone numbers.

Clip Studio Paint and Krita are fantastic options for 2d art, and can be better than Photoshop for drawing and painting.

Simple terminal applications like ping or curl or yt-dlp. I also like using python -m http.server to access my files over the local internet. w3m sometimes works when my mobile data is very slow and can’t load web pages. I also do use ssh a lot. I don’t need it if I have an ssh app but it is nice to have, and I switched to android for it.

I use it locally.

Personally, I like using the terminal on my phone, and the only terminal I found for iOS is extremely slow because its emulating linux.
