What are you're favorite FOSS games to play and why?
I love Endless Sky, it's honestly one of my favorite games! I have a pack of cool SciFi art that I found on Nexus and I've been slowly replacing the stock photos for my personal game. I'm also a sucker for TeeWorlds, it is delightfully infuriating and hillarious to play. I know that's baby's first FOSS games but I'm new to open...
Alphv ransomware group claims to have hacked Reddit, threatens to leak data unless money paid and API changes reverted (feddit.de)
With all of the instances having different URL's, what's the best way to "google" a question and get Lemmy instance answers?
For example, I could search "best blender reddit" and browse tons of threads and gather advice. Is there an equivalent we can do in the future with Lemmy/Kbin?
Is Bromite no longer supported?
The app hasn't been updated in six months according to F-Droid when I used the official Bromite repo. I mean no disrespect to the Dev I'm just concerned about security vulnerabilities in the browser. Bromite was considered one of the best in the privacy space and I'd hate to see it go. If anybody could shed some light on this...
Calling all refugees! *Reddugees?* What has your experience been since migrating from Reddit to Lemmy?
I've had a great time here. The people on the various communities I've joined are very nice and actually constructive! I haven't encountered any rude or sarcastic responses or one word answers....
Does anyone think that the Fediverse would make a much better next phase for the web then all of this Metaverse bull?
I'd much rather see sites like Lemmy, PeerTube, and Mastodon see widespread adoption then the dystopian cyberpunk fever dream in the head of Zuckerburg. Did you not read the novel dude? It's a freaking warning! That's like Jeff Bezos reading Fahrenheit 451 and going "holy crap dude, gotta make that a reality like, yesterday!" I...
Smart-homes: The future, or harmful? (beehaw.org)
What do you guys think of the idea of smart homes? I could make a basic setup using https://home-assistant.io to control my home temperature and lighting; the tools for doing this are everywhere nowadays and implementation doesn't seem too horrific anymore....
Hello, do you have any recommended openings (W or B) for a 1300ish elo player?
I’m a little over 1300 elo, and I feel it’s time to start really getting down and dirty and learning openings. I know a little bit about Scandinavian, very little about French and I’ve recently got interested in Ruy Lopez but I wanted to get the opinion of you guys to see where the next step in my chess journey should be?
Need help coming up with some hacker style stunts and aspects for my character. (Very new to Fate Core)
I'm about to be in a near future hacker campaign in a watchdogs style Fate Core setting. I'm playing Robert Conrad, or known by my handle as DirtyOlHobo. I'm the closest thing to a grifter we have in the Binary Syndicate....
I just deleted my reddit account, and it's long overdue.
I should’ve deleted my account when I switched to lemm.ee to begin with. I’m glad it’s over and I hope you’re all enjoying this site more! I feel relief. Wanted to see how others are adapting to being on lemm.ee instead of reddit?
Hi! Do any of you have any art of what your MC looks like? (lemm.ee)
Here’s mine. He’s a vigilante hacker in my future L.A. universe. I think this couldn’t describe how he looks in my head better. What does your character look like?
Where do I start reading Iron Man?
I’ve been a comic reader on and off over the years but I wanted to really sink my teeth into it lately. I’ve read a few of the more popular stories. Most notably, Extremis, Hyper Velocity, and The End. What stories do you recommend to get into Iron Man more?
Rumors of a secret meeting under NDA between big Fediverse instance admins and Meta
Apparently there was a secret meeting between admins of big Fedi instances and Meta, closed under an NDA, and of course they're not saying anything....
Downsides to chatgpt?
It just feels too good to be true....
