PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Remedy [Control, Alan Wake] is 'not satisfied' with its Q3 results after FBC: Firebreak's flop, and has 'moved development resources' to other games in productionEnglish
13·12 days agoThat’s exactly what they are doing with Alan Wake 2 and Control 2. It’s pretty clear Firebreak was meant to be a way to make a quick buck, and live service games are seen as free money printing machines. For some reason nobody told Remedy that the market is cutthroat and half-assing it won’t be even remotely enough.

11·24 days agoKDE Plasma automatically shows low battery notifications for my logitech mouse connected in non-bluetooth radio mode. It works through UPower daemon, though IDK how it gets the info.
UPD: it works through Logitech’s proprietary protocol which is implemented in the kernel: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/hid/hid-logitech-hidpp.c

World News@lemmy.world•Ultraconservative Sanae Takaichi on track to become Japan’s first female prime ministerEnglish
4·25 days agoWell the usual response to this is that people who don’t want to be in position of power would do a shit job at it (to the point of being net negative).
Most people don’t want “bear the responsibility”, they want someone else to do it.

222·25 days agoI don’t they care about other women. Or people in general. If you an upper class woman running for politics then such policies would never affect you personally. Consequences are for “lesser” people.
This is just what she choose to built her political career upon, because such views are popular in Japan and therefore she would be able garner support and boring base. What matters is that it will get her to power. I sincerely doubt she actually believes into any of that.
That sounds too fragile

Sleep for 4-5 hours every weekday because you don’t want the next day to begin so you put off sleep as long as possible, then sleep through the weekend.

Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•The internet provider on my dorm explicitly allows legal torrents
2·1 month agoNo, it’s about detection of people who seed/download. This encryption setting in torrent clients only protects you from passive external inspection of traffic done by ISP. Your ISP will still know that you use torrents (this is impossible to hide without VPN), but with encryption it won’t know specific torrents that you download/seed, and won’t (easily) know ip addresses of other peers (though it’s also detectable since you connect to them in order to transfer data).
However there is no protection from another peers spying on you. In order for BitTorrent to work you need to tell other peers what you are downloading and advertise your IP address. Which means that there is an implicit trust between peers. A common tactic used by IP holders is to start downloading popular pirate torrents (for which they own copyright) which gives them IP addresses of everyone who seeds/downloads specific content illegally, allowing them to proceed with legal action.

Cars - For Car Enthusiasts@lemmy.world•When SatNav was going to be radio basedEnglish
1·1 month agoUsing lasers for satellite communication is hot new thing right now actually. Although not for navigation, lasers’ advantages (bandwidth) are not relevant there.

Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•The internet provider on my dorm explicitly allows legal torrents
4·1 month agoThis can be easily bypassed by joining the seeding/downloading of popular torrents which gives access to peers’ IPs.
