Exactly. Climate change we have the chance to mitigate, and very possibly prevent / reverse. The heat death on the other hand is not only just a theory as to how the universe might end, but also something that would likely be completely out of our control, assuming that humans even survive a fraction of the time until then. Most likely, there’ll be something else that kills us first.

You do realize that the heat death of the universe would only likely take place in literally trillions and trillions and trillions of years time? Climate change is happening now.

Surprised I’ve not seen more people mention this. Will of the wisps music was bomb too. Gareth Coker is an incredible composer.

Yeah, I was super gutted when I found out. Apparently it did use to work in the past when they used to serve the ads from different servers, but not any more, unfortunately. It’s not completely pointless to install, though. It provides some great software out the box to monitor internet traffic on your network, and I’m pretty sure that in some cases it can speed up your internet by acting as a self-hosted DNS server.

The reason UBlock works, is because it has direct access to the HTML, CSS and JavaScript sent to you. It can alter the web page directly. UBlock scans all the web pages you load, and automatically removes anything it recognizes as an ad. There’s a lot more to it than just that, and it’s a really clever tool, but essentially what it does is directly alter the code of the web page. Unfortunately, this isn’t really possible to do from another device on your network. I did look into somehow setting up a device which scans all incoming traffic like Ublock does, and then removes adverts similarly, but this isn’t really possible since HTTPS traffic is encrypted. Any attempt at removing the encryption would likely result in a heap of issues to using various services, and you’ll likely get constant warnings on your browser about a page being insecure e.t.c.

Am using it without root on my phone at the moment. Perhaps it’s a bug with the patcher

Not sure if you meant pihole or not, but if you did, I thought I’d just mention that a pihole doesn’t remove ads on YouTube due to the fact that the ads and the videos are served from the same server. You block the ads, you block the videos. Made me quite sad after I set my one up.

Unless you didn’t mean pihole, in which case do enlighten me as to what a pinhole is :))

Obviously my opinion, but infinity for lemmy has worked really great for me so far on Android!

Additionally, many newer games use Denuvo which is known for making your games run slower. Sometimes the pirated copies not only take up less space, but also perform better.

I might be completely wrong here, but I don’t believe that the GDPR requires that the user themselves can delete the information. I imagine that as long as instance owners / admins delete user data upon the user’s request to do so, that they’d be operating within GDPR standards.

But again, I probably don’t know enough about GDPR to be commenting on it :P

Yeah, the person who initially recommended me the game told me to not even watch the trailer. I watched it anyway, but the point he was making was to enjoy the game the first time, as you won’t get that same experience again.

I guess you could say the same applies to every story game, but from what I’ve heard, it applies so much more so to Outer Wilds. Wish me luck on my adventure, I look forward to it!

I really enjoyed both the Ori games, Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will of the Wisps. The dev studio more or less got scrapped, but the two games they put out are honestly my favourite platformer games ever made. The music, combat, platforming, story and artwork are all so well done!

I’ve yet to play it, but I’ve only heard good things! Looking to purchase it next time it goes on sale

There is a save feature, at least on the instance I’m using. Press the three dots next to the comment, and then hit the star icon :)
