One thing that has helped me is using addy.io for creating aliases for any service/website that I sign up for.

It has made it incredibly easy to switch email services without having to update each and every website I have an account with.

For example, recently I didn’t like the name of the email account I had on proton. So, I created a new account, went to Addy.io, changed the setting for where all my emails get directed to by default, updated the PGP key for encryption and at that point all future emails were being routed to the new email address. I could have just as easily switched over to a different provider.

Proton gets some bonus points because they have a tool that will allow you to export all of your emails as well as reimporting them into another account.

While it doesn’t support logging in to Steam, it does have an “Add to Steam” option for every game which is very useful for devices like the SteamDeck.

Yeah, there’s a notice that “adtraction” is blocked if you have some sort of dns level ad blocking in place.

To all those wondering: no, this is not a new trailer. It’s the same one from 6 months ago.

Actually, it’s already a feature with some smart glasses. Like these:

Does blorp support showing crossposts the way that PieFed handles it? (Displaying comments from each community on the post).

API refugee. I went to Lemmy first, then jumped over to PieFed because of the awesome features and devs. I still use my Lemmy account for a particular community.

I’ve seen some streamers set up so that they can stream on multiple services simultaneously. It might be something worth looking into.

I’ve been using Voyager, but it sounds like I’ll want to check out Interstellar now.

Are there any plans to add this to F-Droid?

Star Citizen is built from a heavily modified CryEngine/Lumberyard engine. The hooks for VR were left in there, and players were able to find a workaround to get VR working. However, a few months ago, Star Citizen had to force EAC due to some cheaters wreaking havoc in the servers. This also put a stop to the VR workaround.

They had previously quietly allowed users to bypass EAC in order for Linux players and VR users to play. They were able to flip the switch in EAC to allow Linux users to play, but VR users were left out.

A dev spent some time fixing up the game engine to work with VR again as well as OpenXR to support the latest devices. So, now Star Citizen natively supports VR without any workarounds needed.

PieFed has this feature. Just click the little bell icon on the post.

Found a way to workaround the limitation of only being able to crosspost link posts. You can crosspost image posts (and maybe discussion posts as well) with a PieFed account using the Voyager app.

Just crosspost with the app and PieFed is still able to track comments from both posts.

I agree that people should be able to delete their posts, but the problem is that they end up nuking everything in the comments itself.

Ideally it should be handled in a similar way to how Reddit does it: The post itself is “deleted” but the comments remain.

I’m going to put one out there for the Star Citizen character customizer.

Players upload their creations to the website here: https://www.star-citizen-characters.com/ (I recommend sorting by most downloaded, but there can also be some good stuff under the default latest sort).

And they frequently hold competitions on who can make the best characters.

Super late reply, but for anyone else coming across this thread later:

The bypass plug allows you to bypass the normal filter in your fridge and hook it up to an external filter.

It does contain an RFID chip.

For Sim Copter, my favorite was making a city in Sim City, then there was a way to place a military jet that would become a military chopper (usable missiles and all) in Sim Copter. I think either the first or last tile placed of this would become a military chopper.

I also remember practicing landing a helicopter if the fuel ever ran out (pitch forward, then pitch back at the right time to force the rotors to spin up and slow your descent just right to be able to land softly).

Then there was always driving around your own city and just destroying everything in Streets of Sim City.

Subnautica

Granted, with all the planned obsolescence happening, you could also argue that engineers “knew” what they were doing.

Never used any of these hotlines.

What I did use were the magazines you could find at most stores at the time. Those would have walkthroughs and guides for most of the games available at the time.

Additional context from his pinned comment to that video:

I’ve been away from internet all day and it sounds like I got my hands on a couple of bootleg/counterfeit sets here! That’s neat. Love that. I’m going to leave this video up as it is because the overall lesson here remains mostly the same - but I am embarrassed this thought never occurred to me, especially with The Good Place Blu-rays. I honestly thought a Blu-ray release of that show would be niche enough that a run of pressed discs wouldn’t be justified and didn’t question it. I’ve not been paying attention to physical media for nearly a decade so I’ve missed some memos and made one too many assumptions!
