I couldn't read any further, so thanks for more context. I would really love it if we'd share more open articles here so there is the full context to digest and discuss

OneDrive automatically backups folders in Windows 11 without users' permissions ( windowsreport.com )

According to the latest reports, Windows 11 has made an independent choice by automatically turning on OneDrive folder backup for Desktop, Pictures, Documents, Music, and Video folders without your permission. This signifies that, whether you approve or not, everything is becoming coordinated with the cloud....

It's telling how you get downvoted, but someone saying the same shit about Apple in this thread gets upvoted.

I hate shitty practices like everybody else, but please keep them to the same standard.

Donut ,

As someone who found elementor the only thing that was working at the time - any suggestions to do better? I have no coding experience fyi

Donut ,

That sounds pretty good. Kinda like Terra Nil but you're tasked with "cleaning up" cities by rezoning them and stuff. Could be educational, a simulation, or both.

Maybe we should organise a game jam that's about finding alternative transport solutions

Even if god exists religion can't possibly be the way to god

So I thought about this in the shower amd it makes sense to me, like praying and stuff never worked for most people I know, so a direkt link to god gotta be unlikely. That made me conclude that religion is probably fake, no matter if there's a god or not. Also people speaking to the same god being given a different set of rules...

refreshing and clean

I have a level that is a tribute to The Stanley Parable in my game, here is my progress. Any feedback? ( lemmy.world )

My game is called Do Not Press The Button (To Delete The Multiverse) and in it I have a multiverse called A Universe Where This Game Was Made By People With Actual talent and it's a "What If" the Crow Crows Crows guy made my game. I think it's turning out good. What do you think? Here is my Steam Page

Donut ,

Is the level in the demo? Gonna check it out regardless, I love games that are meta and turn themselves inside out

Donut ,

What does them being circled signify?

Donut ,

Thanks. Work in progress, we'll call it

Donut ,

It might be the perspective but fuck they are shooting so low in the footage of blowing up the Ukrainian UAV that they seem to be hitting the residential buildings behind

Donut ,

With the Sync app you can still see the comment if you hit "reply", as the reply view has a top box for reading the parent comment and making text selection and for some reason it retains the comment contents. Just an FYI

Donut ,

I really like "All I Want For Christmas is the Beautiful People (Mariah Carey and Marilyn Manson)". I always like to share with people who complain about one of the songs during Christmas time, as they usually do enjoy this one!

I assume the PipedBot will generate a link, otherwise I'll edit it in later

Donut ,

What's the point in sharing paywalled articles?

Donut ,

Thanks chief, that was quite entertaining to read.

I don't object against paywalled articles/websites in general, but if you're sharing something accessibility is kinda important.

Donut ,

That's what the world needs. Smart notifications. And I'm not being sarcastic, this is such a good example of how something like that enriches the user experience that a timer on your phone could never achieve. Keep it up!

Donut ,

Leaving a comment to check back in later. I'm wondering what choices there are as well. Swiping to next post would be neat

Donut ,

I'm using Sync and when it was Sync for reddit I believe it was possible. Perhaps it's now a premium feature, idk. But I'm not paying for premium when the developer goes dark between updates. Not saying his development method is wrong, but it's just not for me.

Donut ,

Remember that reddit bot that would repeat the parent comment in all caps when someone said "what?" or a variety thereof? Good times.

Donut ,

It would make sense to require a company to release the code for players to host their own servers, which has been done by many games in the past. Not to continue to run it themselves.

That's basically what people are asking for. Instead of not being playable anymore, give consumers the means to keep it going for themselves.

This could mean always-online having to be gutted from the game after it's support ends so you can play it offline. Or server hosting files to host your own private or public server.

The goal is to have games not be impossible to play after X amount of time. How companies reach that goal is up to them.

Donut ,

Just seeing this makes me want to play again. I spent hundreds of hours on my GameCube with so many different characters. Never really enjoyed (M)MORPGs but PSO was my exception to the rule

Donut ,

While I agree with everything said, using Google to find out how many episodes your own podcast has just seems a bit lazy. Bookmark the page, and next time you want to do your admin work you can follow the bookmarks and be done with it. Easy fix.

Also, use DDG

Donut ,

Why do you need two apps on each platform to replace one? I would love to switch over things but this makes it sound so much more complicated than it probably is

Donut ,

No, that was the temp ban. The perma ban had to do with a lost song thread

Donut ,

What? People are just curious how they got a ban by the site admins instead of a subreddit. It takes a bit more to pull that off than just posting an unpopular opinion.

Great exhibit of Godwin's law, though.

Donut ,

One of my favorites sadly didn't make it because of too much water. Hoping to salvage it and start over

[request] Help finding a space movie

An astronaut crash lands on an elongated asteroid with extremely strong gravity. He manages to crawl away from his ship and finds that the gravity in the middle is normal and the gravity at the far end is reversed. Time is also affected by gravity and goes backward at the far end of the asteroid. His dog was injured and he...

Works on sync for me

Edit: wait it doesn't. It's missing the ) at the end of the URL

Donut ,

Why would Valve delist a game? Can you elaborate on what kind of speculation was made?

Donut ,

Only on the beta branch at the moment, so if you're on a different storefront you can't get an early peek.

Perfect excuse to start over for me. Even though old saves should be compatible, but with early access YMMV

Donut ,

Yeah it's so cumbersome, especially if you forget data being on.

At least you can bookmark the second QR code because it's always the same IP address. So once you're connected you can just directly navigate to 192.168.0.1/index.html and you're in.

Donut ,

Again, it's simply faster to turn off data and scan the QR code than it is to force my phone to connect to a network that isn't connected to the internet.

You have to connect to the network in order to transfer anything, so what do you mean? I'm talking the second QR code that's simply a link to the IP address I linked. I can just open my browser (after being connected to the Switch's WiFi) and type a 1 to let it autofill to skip scanning it at all.

Donut ,

I did. Those usernames are too distracting and shout "look at me!", so I'm filtering all of them.

Donut ,

Can you not whitelist each other as a contact that will override the mute?

Donut ,

Settings > Sounds & Vibration > Do Not Disturb > Select "Favorites" in the drop down under Exceptions.

Then in your contacts app, favorite each other and test it out!

My solo project roguelike tower defense game is having a free prologue ( store.steampowered.com )

Hello, I've been working on the game, Towerful Defense: A Rogue TD, for almost a year now. I'm about to release the game after Steam's Next Fest in June. And I'm about to release a free version of it, a prologue in May 8th. You can wishlist the prologue now to get notified on the launch day....

Donut ,

What made you decide to release a separate free app vs a demo on the original app? Not critiquing the choice, just curious what the reasoning could be.

I looked at the trailers and I think it would be helpful if your towers and other friendly buildings / units have a different coloured orb compared to enemies. I found it very hard to distinguish between friend or foe. That could be less impactful when playing, but first impressions leave me slightly confused. Put it on my wishlist!

Donut ,

For some reason I was thinking the prologue would stop being available at release like a demo, but that's just my sprinkled size brain being tired. I totally get it now, thanks

Anyone else get chewed out by their boss for just not getting the hint?

Sorry if this topic is stupid, I feel very stupid right now. I got transferred to a new department and I've had 2 or 3 clashes with the new boss about me not getting the hint. He finally gave me a metric, a number to get to. He spelled it out. I can do that, but I'm just freaking out that he's gonna fire me because I couldn't...

Donut ,

Why are you fretting because your boss sucks at communication? Establish your expectations and communicate these. They should be able to give you direct goals when necessary.

Donut ,

I understand. You're right that anxiety (or any emotion) isn't rational, but try to remind yourself that communication is a two way street.

They obviously hold a position of power considering they are your boss, but it would be good to discuss expectations and boundaries to prevent miscommunication in the future!
