Some software installers still ask if I want to install for all users, which require elevated permissions, or only for me, which don’t. In that last option it will not prompt for elevated permissions as it will use one of my user’s folders which I have already all permissions for, obviously.

It’s a security measure that’s half assed. People are so used to it they just click allow but don’t actually look at the prompt anymore. Like I see a lot of people do with cookies on websites.

Thats a windows thing so it can put files in “protected” folders like program files

First the windows 11 start menu, now the linux terminal. Worldview in shambles.

What about the birds in quackshot? That game is from the 90s.

No more input until it’s already released?

Ps5 has the same problem. Is it the latest more powerful version? Can it take discs?

So many, depends on the booted OS and what I feel like or what the kids feel like playing.

Currently doing a mix of Quake 2 single player (100%ed it on nightmare but I keep coming back to it), Half-Life deathmatch (hilarious with the kids as we try to lay out traps for eachother), Reflex Arena, Planetside 2, Age of Empires 2, OpenRA, Fortnite (kids love it so I play along), Ion Fury, Fallout 3 and Red Dead Redemption 2. Last 3 are story modes, so they take long. Only Ion Fury is linear though, so it’s easier to come back to.

Again, which law? We don’t all live in the USA.

I just emailed my bank, that was literally all it took. When I log in to my banking website I can do it right there, too. I just emailed them because I was afraid there might be consequences, but they called me up saying they’d already done it for me and I should have no worries

Happened twice, so it’s not a one-of, and since I could even do it myself right from the summary of transactions… All direct debit. I don’t even have a credit card, so it can’t be mistaken.

What law? My bank will (and has) reversed charges.

Lots of American defaultism in this thread. I only want to state that outside of the US things can be different with regards to banking.

For example, taking up debt is discouraged, while in the US it is encouraged to get a good “credit score”.

You’re in America, right? This isn’t necessarily true everywhere.

I didn’t even know they had a client. I do everything via their website.

Scorn!

They applaud it even.

My PC has a tpm, the CPU is simply on the unsupported list.

What a shame, my kid plays this on our Linux pc, he’s gonna be devastated.

I thought it was your son’s computer, not a shared one

Why would your wife need to be convinced?

This isn’t 2D… I think of Mario or Sonic as 2D, what’s this though, isometric?

Veloren

Veloren is an action-adventure role-playing game set in a vast fantasy world.

VoxeLibre, what started out as a Minecraft clone is now trying to go it’s own way. Does what it says on the tin. Being not quite MC gives it something fresh, yet familiar imo.

D-Day Normandy is a Quake 2 total conversion mod that is a standalone game. Our website is currently reduced to a forum, but we hope to get that back on track soon. The admin is currently unavailable… Anyways, WW2 FPS from around 2000. Class-based, objective or fraglimit (or both in some maps). Runs on everything these days. We have a couple servers worldwide, more info on ddaydev.com.

That’s saying the quiet part loud

They were gonna axe the cookies in return for a generalized profile in your browser or something.

Thank you Microsoft, forcing everyone to buy new CPUs just to be able to run their latest iteration of Windows.

As long as you’re not giving market share to chromium…

Then use a fork.

See my other reply, you can automate this with a setting so you don’t have to edit it manually every time.

This is built into Thunderbird for a while now.

1. Go to Account Settings
2. Enable Reply from this identity when delivery headers match
3. Enter your domain prefixed by a wildcard (*), for example *@yourdomain.com
4. Close/confirm all your changes
5. Open an email that was sent to one of your catch-all addresses and click the reply button.
6. The FROM field should be the catch-all address and not your general address.

Mozilla used to have Sunbird, until they also rolled it into Thunderbird. Standalone calendars aren’t popular anymore, but in sure there’s some around.

I understand the mail integration, as appointments can be processed directly.

It works better for searching, it works offline, catch-all addresses just work with correct from address when replying, backup and archiving, can move mails from box to box without sending.

I also use roundcube, but only to read mails. If I want to reply to a catch-all mail I have to create an alias which is super tedious.

In the past there were games where you were given the option to install an optional HD texture pack. Can they simply do this here, too? Yes, they can. But no, gotta waste bandwidth…

It wasn’t the automated process unfortunately

I have 3 hours of playtime on ARK, which was 3 hours of going through settings, loading screens and crashes, and they have refused a refund.

In that case steam discounts the product, no?

They’re making so much money with Fortnite they could pick up this project again silently and release a finished product to the fans that were let down.

I use thunderbird at home and outlook at work and prefer thunderbird. It works nicely with my catch-all mailserver so it automatically uses the correct outgoing address.

Searching for mails is also a breeze compared to outlook.

I have a WAP phone, and to my surprise google loads
