Mostly here to kill time. Big fan of open source game engine recreations/source ports, firmware modding, Linux, and gaming in general.
Good point. I had forgotten about disabling network access. I think a majority of the games I paid for work off the idea that if you connect a few times or have a certain amount of plays times you can then play offline. Well the ones that check that is.
Maybe I’ll give this a go. Thanks for the advice
What data would be sent off having Google Play services installed? I get that you can disable certain permissions and can also use profiles.
Ideally I wouldn’t want to use profiles. I could use something like Shelter on a rooted device but that kind of slows down multitasking
Thanks but I’m shooting for as little contact with Google as possible
I’ve tried lucky patcher with a few games with minimal luck. I haven’t tried it with Stardew Valley though so maybe there’s a chance
Wonder if they forgot their Steam login
Or a net in the toilet to catch your shit so it doesn’t splash and give you a so-called poseidon’s kiss
Why interfere with natures bidet?
Due it being like this since I got it, an intermittent issue, and a common issue online I don’t think it is the unit. Killing Oculus’ software and restarting it would occasionally get it to work so I feel like it might be that. I spent sometime reading Oculus Support threads and others shared my suspicions.
My only other thought would have been my motherboard or power supply. My CPU, GPU, and RAM should be enough.
I have tried that. I unplugged everything except a wireless keyboard I used to navigate the menus and it didn’t help
I find a lot of admins forget or neglect bridges which can be frustrating
There’s a few open source front ends for Twitch that I’ve tried but I’ve had the occasional issue with video playback either stopping and being unable to reload or if I’m watching a VOD it won’t consistently remember my position so I’d say I prefer the official app.
Normally I use open source ones when possible such as NewPipe or Invidious for YouTube for example.
I carry a 40 pin connector adapter as well
Honestly USB C adapters. If you EDC a portable power bank it’s worth looking into a USB C to micro and thunderbolt adapter. It’s a lot easier than carrying around multiple cords and an easy way to help out friends and coworkers.
I think I got mine for a few dollars on Ali Express
Mostly for tinkering. If I’m setting up an abandonware game or modding a game I prefer to do so in Lutris. It makes it easier to hop back and forth.
I also use desktop mode for a lot of indie games I may only be playing for small amounts of time
If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck. Chances are it’s probably a duck.
That said they may be taking it as a sign of the other person’s larger ideology. For example if they have a strong anti immigration stance they might come to the conclusion that the person is racist.
There’s sometimes the mentality if you give this person an inch they’ll run with it so they may say it to stop things from derailing
There’s also a ton of dog whistles the alt right use. Remember when the milk emoji was used on Twitter? What about the okay sign? Hawaiian shirts?
It doesn’t hurt to be cautious. Trusted sources have occasionally included malicious materials and blindsided users
If you are using Steam Link you still require a PC
That would be nice. If it got popular enough it might be a platform where you can assume someone is somewhat tech minded because they use it.
It could be a baseline for something in common.
GRIS. An absolutely gorgeous game with some relatively easy platforming and puzzles. It was published by Devolver Digital.
If you are lightly toasted ECHO can be a lot of fun. Great visuals and plenty of ways to cheese your way around puzzles.
Cloud Punk is a super chill cyberpunk taxi game. I don’t think I ever felt stressed playing it.
You need to have sound on. She’s getting cussed at for what she’s doing
