They are installing a new package through steam, "Ubisoft Connect Services" and are trialing it alongside Prince of Persia and so I removed both when I saw the download pop up. I'm so done with Ubisoft, triple a in general, and spyware entirely.

He's making fun of a disabled person in the first image specifically, but by all means give thia "evil person" all the cover fire you want.

91 and driving a Tesla. The well-to-do and decrepit get to keep their car keys at the expense of other people's lives.

Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves

Saw a sidewalk decal yesterday for the Houston Gamblers which is seemingly the "new" UFL football team hereabouts, and found myself disgusted at the name given the rise of sports betting over this past decade+.
Anyway, it seems rather obvious that Texas politicians want the public to piss their pay straight into the coffers of the wealthy.

Please just block Ubisoft, EA, Activision, Bethesda from showing up on the store (there is a setting in steam).

Did not know about this, thanks.

For anyone else interested, go to the dev/publisher Steam "homepage" and click the gear to ignore the creator.

Hopefully the Dubai Express stumbles into the jaws of Tropical Storm Eduoard. Anyone got a sharpie?

After the intentional moves Ubisoft made to distance Siege from Linux I am not at all surprised. They do not want us and have made this patently clear. Fuck 'em.

Hanging in there.

Ah, the reason I refuse to consider Framework. Rich tech bros love climbing in bed with the worst kind of people.

Hello World,

Lines of Battle is an evolving, simultaneous turn-based war game that simulates the Napoleonic, line-based clashes of yesteryear. It has excellent depth and the settings allow for quick or long games that fit the player's schedule. Ranked matchmaking is supported alongside custom matches and bot play to help get over the small learning curve. In addition, a map maker is featured, there is a quality community alongside clans (coalitions,) and the entirety of the game is free to play. An android client is also in beta for those that would rather tap and drag.

I've really fallen for this little game, it scratches an itch of mine I'd long forgotten about and is also very approachable while allowing for a ton of variability. Anyone that has sat down at a tabletop war game will appreciate all of the possibilities while also being impressed at just how very streamlined the gameplay is. It definitely isn't for everyone, but if you found these factors at all appealing, I hope you'll give it a go.

Have a great week Lemmy!

Mark Ruffalo spoke about what’s next, and told his followers we have our “marching orders”.
"No to Trump/Vance. No to the right-wing Christian religious takeover of our nation. Nothing wrong with Christianity; just shouldn’t be running a nation birthed from freedom of religion.”

Appreciate someone saying this loud and proud.

 

As an older, and increasingly jaded gamer, I'm having a hard time remembering when I've last been so excited over a release as this one. Riven is seemingly getting the gold-standard treatment with a ground-up remake that not only utilizes 3D (and VR) to give depth to the world but also adds new content while keeping the visuals near one-to-one.
My favorite part of Riven personally is the excellent soundtrack, I can't wait to hear it while wandering around and exploring this space all over again. Cheers, Lemmy!

 

Michael Hallett, a professor of criminology at the University of North Florida who studied the effects of “Cops,” said he viewed the NYPD’s forays into social media as a natural response to a digital media ecosystem that rewards speed and sensationalism.

The proliferation of body-camera footage and, increasingly, drones, have made it easy for police to create their own reality series, free of delays imposed by the TV gear and network schedules, he said.

“They now have a proactive and sophisticated messaging system that is designed and intended to deliver messages on behalf of the police agenda,” Hallett added. “In the negotiation for control of the message, that gives them the upper hand.”

 

Not sure if this is a log that Android 14 exposed but when I first got my 7a I could not get fingerprint actions working. Anyway it works now.

When setting a Logcat Entry event under Profiles, search for a "Biometrics/AuthenticationClient" Component in the log. Then try filtering for something like "onAuthenticated(true), ID:123456789", the individual finger ID. Tasks can then be fired off on unlock.
