Best mobile games with 0 microtransactions?
  • LMagicalus LMagicalus 1d ago 100%

    Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a really good roguelike for mobile. Ton of variety, no ads, only thing you can buy is a supporter pack that gives the ui a different fringe color, and that doesn't get pushed.

  • Google threatened with break-up by US
  • LMagicalus LMagicalus 1w ago 100%

    Alphabet is the company that owns all the products and companies and whatnot. They are the owners of google, android, chrome, google drive, chromium, a ton of stuff. Too much stuff.

    Them getting broken up means that the different parts of their business will get split up. So google search and android and chrome etc. Will all be different companies.

    The best in example I can think of is AT&T. They used to own pretty much the entire American telephone network, but they got broken up for being a monopoly. In this case, they were split up regionally, into over 20 different companies.

    How medical insurance works

    Right, but it might still have to be you paying, insurance or no.

    How medical insurance works
  • LMagicalus LMagicalus 2w ago 100%

    It might be that you HAD to be the one to pay for it. When I hit a certain age, all the insurance cheques were made out to me, and I had to deposit them and transfer the money to my parents.

    (Though this was insurance for therapy, so maybe it's different?)

    My strategy is to add updates to an hourly cronjob, and curse profusely when it downloads a bad update.

  • I'm getting ready to run Icewind Dale, and noticed some of the maps have this marking in them, but none of them call attention to it or explain it. Does it indicate height, or something weird like "this ramp is a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 30 feet" or "30 feet extra ramp here we didn't have space for, stretch it out when you run it"?

  • The Dislike to Ubuntu
  • LMagicalus LMagicalus 3w ago 100%

    It's the little things. One of my biggest gripes is that EVERY TIME you run apt update, it shoves an add for Ubuntu pro at the bottom of tge output, which shoves all the info I actually care about offscreen. Pure bullshit. It sounds small, but when I need to check which packages are getting updated, it makes my life a bit more inconvenient. And I do most things through CLI, so I see this a lot.

    Shit like that has been my entire experience with Ubuntu. I deeply regret switching to it, and I'm switching off as soon as I can get another hard drive to swap in.

  • I'm currently working on setting up a proxy on my home computer to bypass my school's blockers, and want to see if I can make any improvements to security. To be clear, I haven't opened this to the internet yet, I'm asking BEFORE doing that. The setup is thus: I have a squid server running on my linux laptop, which will only allow authenticated users through. It's no longer listening to the default port (3128) and is instead listening to a port in the 10000-20000 range. I would have both my router and modem set to forward that same port, and my laptop's local IP address is static. This is a consumer internet connection, so Dynamic DNS, but I have a NOIP address ready to connect once I open the ports (already have the client installed and running, just throws an error on the website because it can't get through the port.) I'll be connecting to my proxy server through the FoxyProxy extension, rather than through the Windows 11 control panel on my school laptop, because I dont have access to that specific part of the control panel. That's the sum total of the setup I've got thus far. It only needs to be able to support my lone connection, I'm not sharing this around. Any improvements to be made?

    ...no? Fantasy Football has basis in the real world, with added game layers on top. D&D is entirely fictional.

  • For younger generations, what was it like growing up with the internet?
  • LMagicalus LMagicalus 2mo ago 100%

    Latish Gen Z here, it never really needed to click. Its been there the whole time, so it's just a norm part of life, like it's always been. Like, I get that it's insane, but it's not out of the norm for me, because it IS my norm. My parents were decently strict when I was little, but once I hit my tweens they gave me a LOT of slack.

    I'll be playing a game, and then one day it won't work. After updating my graphics drivers, it works again. But the game didn't receive an update, so why does it just break?

    I know it's bacteria, but where is that bacteria coming from? Why doesn't brushing, flossing, mouth washing, or getting a deep clean at the dentist get rid of it entirely?

    Game is Journey of the Gods, for anyone else looking! I only remember the first big fight; you had a crossbow and sword, and were fighting a tentacle thing made of black ooze on a farm. The game overall was about becoming a god, with the gods being birds and you collecting feathers to ascend. I originally played it on the Oculus Quest.
