Last Notes npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn I just noticed the #Dutch government is using advertisement space on some popular Dutch webshops for their #awareness campaign about #cybercrime, #phising, and online scams. Maybe people already knew, but I normally block ads. I guess this campaign is not on the block list (rightfully so) making it very obvious appearing suddenly in my screen 😅. Anyhow: less advertisements and more awareness. I love it 😃! Good job @nprofile…0gjx and other related parties! More info on the campaign here: https://veiliginternetten.nl/laat-je-niet-interneppen p.s. why is the ministery Justitie en Veiligheid not on Mastodon yet? I can only find their inspecting party... I guess poking them to come here is not within in your tasks @nprofile…q34g? #security #cybersecurity #awarenesscampaign #laatjenietinterneppen #veiliginternetten https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/117/548/134/767/085/414/original/636ce6bad2161940.jpg npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn Watching 90 Day Fiance to waste some time. In the show, there is a guy with a Russian woman who's pregnant, and they're in Russia for the birth before they can go US. Child got born with emergency C-section because it's too big. Doctor says "4,1kilos". The guy: "4 kilometers? How much pound is that?".

From old kernels full of vulnerabilities to simply insecure connections, and a lot of other issues. Better be careful with them anyways. Safest is not using of course, but if you do want to (which I get, I do too); understand the risks and mitigate. Only allowing them on your local network and segmenting them from internet-facing devices is a start. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn Would be great if the other local languages in this country could achieve something similar ❤️. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn Well great, let's have some "we recommend shutting down 3/4 of the internet" sized vulnerabilities today 😑... #php #security #cybersecurity #php2shell #infosec #vulnerability npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn I've been really enjoying #PlanetZoo2 🐯! It runs great on the Steam Deck. Controls are surprisingly complete for controllers and performance is good even after upping the graphics. Only bug I've had so far was ringtail lemurs launching themselves out of their habitat 🚀. Which was a bit frustrating but also kinda funny. It that got fixed in today's patch luckily. Now they behave like animals again, instead of rockets 😅. #steamdeck #gaming #gamingonlinux #linuxgaming #planetzoo #zootycoon npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn It's #autumn and a #redbreast has found my #garden. The past few days he sneakily comes around when the tits, doves, and house sparrows aren't looking. Today I finally caught him on camera. Meanwhile the musjesmob is so aware of the feeding, they're watching. When I open the bucket of food they stop their usual chirp, and once I filled it a different chirp starts. Smart little guys. My partner saw a hunting bird in front of the house the other day. He called me but I only saw it quickly fly off and couldn't identify it. With the many kinds of falcons, eagles, harriers, and buzzards in my country it's hard to tell. Even with half of them leaving in winter, there are many left (and with the hot after-summer some might still be around anyways). #bird #birds #RobinRedbreast #EuropeanRobin #robin #villagelife #countryside https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/117/440/035/401/819/374/original/dd27fade4174fca3.jpg npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn I found out one can still eat "bloedworst" when pregnant, as long as it's cooked. It's like a traditional Dutch version of black pudding. Made it roasted with sirup on it. The traditional and most delicious way to consume! Too bad it's expensive, so I can't eat it too often. It's a good one if one wants more flavourful and special Dutch food.

It worked well, now my garden is full of them. There are at least 11 house sparrows living in my neighbours tree that come to eat daily, as well as some great tits, blue tits, and Eurasian collared doves coming by daily. But now those house sparrows got a new trick. If I don't feed them, they start to attack my garden, destroying my fruit plants and their frames. We started to call them the "musjesmob" ("musje" is Dutch for house sparrow) as we need to pay their "protection money" to "keep our garden safe" 🤣🤣🤣. #birds #bird #garden #backyard #housesparrow #housesparrows https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/117/308/409/707/127/039/original/f06c766890c4b53f.jpg npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn Doing a passive play through of #Skyrim. As in, I don't use any direct damage skills. Needed to kill this "pilgrim" (hidden Dawnguard) for the vampires, and stay undetected while I'm at it. Talked him into following me, planning to go to a giant camp nearby and use a frenzy spell so he kills himself mindlessly attacking the giants and mammoths. Sounded like a fun way to kill him. Guy got a bit behind and met a wolf halfway. Died before I even could walk back to him. Well... that was an anti-climax.... #humor #funny #theelderscrolls #theelderscrollsv npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…49d7 Lego still reuses as many bricks as possible, limiting custom ones tho? If you actually craft the sets you'll notice. Thry're quite creative, and it leads to fun things. Some examples in sets I own are car steering wheels which are the fans of a drone, a fork is the receiver on an antenna on a roof, and a peddle for boats is the pizza shovel. Either way, Lego basically has 2 markets: AFOLs and children. And for both there are sets in many price ranges. Collector sets for the AFOLs and play sets are sets children can enjoy. Any brick in any of them can be used to not follow the manual. In fact, the whole point of The Lego Movie wasn't about an oppressive capitalistic dictator that needed to be defeated. It was a diss at adults who don't let their kids play with their Lego sets using their imagination, implying one should be free to not follow the manual and just mix and match stuff and have fun with it. Tbh, I prefer the play sets for myself as well. They come with all these little gimmicks for playing that are simply fun and creative. The collector sets sure look good, but they're not nearly as fun imho. If I just want detailed looks, I go for statues and figurines and such. But that's me. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn "China orders no one is allowed to cooperate with @nprofile…fu0r's investigation into unfair state funding (there are laws about foreign subsidization here) during the MediaMarkt take-over from JD .com" No doubt that will make the EU waaay less suspicious :mastorofl::mastorofl::mastorofl: T̶h̶a̶t̶'̶s̶ ̶s̶a̶r̶c̶a̶s̶m̶,̶ ̶i̶n̶ ̶c̶a̶s̶e̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ ̶c̶a̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶t̶e̶l̶l̶ #china #eu #jd #jdcom #mediamarkt #europeancommission #sovereignty #sovereign #europe #european #europeanunion #funny #statefunding npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…jytn It seems Japan and Germany are the biggest when it comes to producing good pens. It's interesting to see it combined tho, hadn't noticed that happening before. Often the two countries have some differences. For fountain pens Japanese nibs are smaller than they're European counterparts for example (as in, a Japanese medium sized nib is similar to a German fine sized nib). Dunno if mechanical pens have much differences like that, but if so I'd wonder who's norm they'd follow in these kind of setups 🤔. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn My months (if not longer) old project to make an @nprofile…8zvc #watchface based on the #HatsuneMiku x #Seiko 15th anniversary watch is starting to look like something 😍! I always feel most Vocaloid (and other anime-styled) watches end up looking dollar store cheap or too weeaboo, or the theme is hard to recognise unless you know. This specific Seiko watch is one of the few very clearly themed yet still stylish watches I've seen. There are some small issues I need to fix in terms of alignment and positioning, but overall it's getting there. Being absolutely NOT a designer or frontend person and having hand drawn the dial in @nprofile…g05d I feel quite proud 😇.

It's from the (current version of the) privacy policy used on a #cardiology device (with mandatory smartphone app, mind you) called #Kardia that is given to patients within The Netherlands (and some other countries) by some cardiologists 🥲. I send them a nice mail that the EU-US Privacy Shield became invalid in 2020 and the current EU-US DPF has been disputable since January 2025, so it might be time for a policy review. Figured someone got to let them know... It's a sad thing of the current state of this world, that we cannot even trust devices given by doctors to be compliant. #privacy #healthcare #zorg #gezondheidszorg https://mastodon.nl/system/media_attachments/files/117/070/818/283/179/951/original/29de036d6abe3765.png npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn Sta er gewoon 4x in deze maand 😱.

Always actors using it to try to improve their schemes. Some examples we've seen ourselves go from general phishing improvements (especially obvious in non-English languages and follow-up conversations) to using generative AI when trying to infiltrate the company by applying to remote job positions (using it to alter voice and video during remote job interviews). All kinds of "improve your social engineering when your reality isn't good enough" things. We've also seen an increase in found vulnerabilities since people put AI on that, which then get actively exploited. But those we're kinda happy with. Yes it gives us more work. But while it might not have been knowingly exploited before that, that doesn't mean it didn't get exploited without people noticing. Some of the worst actors are good at covering their tracks. And while you try to catch that ofc, anyone who thinks their 100% secure or monitored is just being naive and with that extra vulnerable. So far no big impact caused by the incidents as they got caught in time, but definitely the attempts are getting better and more common. For us it is something we've seen happening ourselves, and therefore are actively watching out for and taking into our defence tactics. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…lfkr It's not all schools, and I'm not sure how wide spread it is not to. Schools can choose by themselves in this. When my youngest sister (9 years younger than me, and I'm 29) went to primary school I noticed there where some who didn't teach it. 2 of my nieces and an older sister of mine studied teaching and also noted some schools don't while others do. So it's not a countrywide system, but it's a thing multiple schools do for sure. The idea is that people mostly type and read printed material, and block letters are more widely used and sometimes required. Also that some people struggle with good handwriting and block letters are easier. Personally, I have unfavourable opinions on this. I think cursive is good for developing motoric skills and needed for reading text by people who do use it. It's useful for quick penning too. Block letters are simplified from cursive, and can be taught later. "More easy" is a bad excuse, learning cursive will also improve block letters due to the improved motorics, and in extension only doing the "easy" thing will also affect those badly. I know some countries with other writing methods often only teach block letters too, especially in Asia. But those countries already went over their people's motoric skills when teaching whatever system is used locally so it's not really comparable. I also think the old way of using fountain pens first is good. It teaches a good grip and movement, as it will make a mess otherwise. That too is also good for motorics, as well as learning to write without cramping. But I guess that cán also be thought with a ballpen, it's just more difficult to do so as it's more forgiving and less noticable when done wrong. But that's just my 2 cents 😅. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…lfkr Meanwhile primary schools in my country phase out cursive handwriting, switching to block letters only. Disregarding the motoric skills developed by writing cursive first and lowering the ability to read despite others still using it. And most high schools are full of iPads and Chromebooks. I can only hope they do something similar here... I still write all my notes by hand, much better to remember everything. In a nice cursive writing, with a fountain pen. As a kid, we where forced to and we couldn't wait to be allowed to write in block letters with a ballpoint. Now I wouldn't want anything else, and am glad I was forced to learn it 🤣🤣🤣. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn It's a bit "pepernoten in augustus", but we brought home some #mooncakes #today 🥮🤩!

And as I learned myself to type blind by doing it rather than the official courses, I tend to cross my hands and fingers all over the keyboard making it looks extra random. It really gives funny reactions sometimes 🤣🤣🤣. But in this show the guy was quite average with his typing. Probably why I caught it while playing phone 😅. I'm more amazed at how on TV they can switch between 20 terminals quickly without ever needing to double-check which one they're on, read output near instantly and know exactly what to type to follow up within milliseconds. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…lwur Oke, blijkbaar checkt hij pas bij posten, en dus niet automatisch tijdens het typen zoals de meeste instances hun website.

Brits Engels kan hij ook niet verifieren, dus ook daar standaard error daarover, en Mastodon (iig mijn server) lijkt dit überhaupt naar gewoon Engels te zetten. Da's dan weer jammer.

The guy was checking a reporters phone and found that, surprise surprise... it was bugged 😱! How did he find it? By using his terminal to check a folder called "Smartphone" on his local C drive of course :mastorofl::mastorofl::mastorofl:! But hey, #terminals are scary.

The Dutch tech site Tweakers for example, which includes one of the most active fora in The Netherlands but also brings tech-news and does extensive testing of hard- and software (using a lot of custom build test set-ups, making them the only or first to be able to test certain things). Paying is a source of income to keep the site running. But on top of that it gives you no ads, a discount on merch, entrance to a yearly event at the headquarters of the website, and you can join a monthly lottery (with a pretty decent price, like newly released videogames or cool tech stuff). If you pay more, you get a different colour bling, but also on top of the other pro's get another yearly lunch with the management, the community manager will send a gift twice a year, and your name is displayed at the headquarters. Bling itself is optional and can be hidden, the website and it's contents itself is fully free. Well, technically there is a members-only section on the forum, but it's used for stuff related to the paid perks only. The site tries to make ads not too bad for non-paying people in hope they turn off their ad-blocker out of support, but ad-blockers work regardless and aren't actively blocked. Oh, and of course active users get a discount. Because they're content is part of what makes the site interesting. The discount is permanent no matter if you take a break from subscribing or stop being active, as your contributions are not forgotten. Haven't had a Discord account in years tho. Who wants to be on that shit anyways, let alone pay for it? npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn I see a lot of "the #Rabobank #app doesn't work on @nprofile…8d0p anymore" going around again lately. I can confirm it works just fine 😉. Some people just share hearsay they heard from others, while others confuse it not installing trough the #GooglePlayStore as the app not working. Which was broken ages ago, nothing new there. Afaik that's still a thing, but I don't use #Google's #PlayStore so not sure. Regardless, the app works just fine when installed with #Aurora #appstore or using any other method.

Hoe je contact op kan nemen staat in de link. Zoals gezegd heb ik hier verder niks mee te maken behalve dat ik gebruiker ben van de website in kwestie en meningen heb over deze casus 😉. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…xl02 @nprofile…rw95 Inmiddels is die idd opgezet: https://whydonate.com/nl/fundraising/rechtszaak-tegen-bokt Bart wou ff de juridische implicaties onderzoeken voordat hij dat deed, maar dat lijkt minimaal. Maargoed, dan nog zijn de kosten van een advocaat zo aanzienlijk dat alle mogelijke hulp welkom is. Je hebt het met standaardtarieven al gauw over getallen met 5 tot 6 cijfers zeg maar 🫤. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…rw95 Zeker eens dat een eigen rechtspersoon niet voor iedereen mogelijk of passend is. Het ging me er vooral om dat het iets is wat men nu zelf kan doen. Maar inderdaad, eigenlijk hebben we gewoon wetsmatige bescherming nodig. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn Ik hoorde van iemand over de cookiebanner. Ik heb hem gezien, maar daarover het volgende: Ja die is lelijk. Maar... het is een website van 1 ZZP'er die niet diep in de privacywetten zit. Hij doet echter wel z'n best het bij te houden, en zit meer te vechten met dingen als "hoe zorg ik dat persoonsgegevens verwijderd kunnen worden over het hele forum heen" Het is geen commerciele website noch 1 die expres onnodige data verzameld. Advertenties zijn eerder om hostingkosten enzo te betalen. De website draait op 25-jaar oude software (die dus niet gebouwd was op welke privacywet van nu dan ook) die hij zelf onderhoud, en hij is druk bezig te vernieuwen maar dat is gewoon veel werk voor een enkeling naast een betaalde baan. Ook ivm hoe groot het is geworden na 25 jaar. En dat allemaal op vrijwilligersbasis van hem en een stel moderators De website is voor hem en menig gebruiker geen "1 van de laatste big-tech vrije sociale media" maar een passieproject van een stel paardenliefhebbers (wat over het algemeen geen IT of privacy mensen zijn). Het is dat in de praktijk geworden door de passie van hem en de gebruikers Dat die een zeer lelijke cookiebanner heeft (die hij waarschijnlijk als 3e partij plugin erin heeft gezet waardoor er ook allerlij partner bij zijn gekomen) vind ik toch een heel ander verhaal dan een commercieel bedrijf. Als we dit soort websites die wel hun best doen op elke tekortkoming afrekenen, is het internet ook snel dood Mocht iemand hulp kunnen bieden wil hij vast wel de cookiebanner en partners aanpakken als bedankje 😉. Het is geen onwil naar mijn idee, maar gewoon de limitaties van een enkeling die alles alleen doet met gelimiteerde kennis op dat specifieke stukje Again, speculatie van mij gebaseerd op wat de afgelopen jaren op het forum is gedeeld. Maar BartVB is naar mijn idee echt geen kwade npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn 2/2 Waarom post ik dit? 2 zijdig. Aan de ene kant wil ik aandacht leggen op hoe kleine websitehouders kapot gemaakt kunnen worden zelfs als ze alles goed doen. Van Fediverse serverhouders tot forumhouders en noem maar op. Het is een uiting van onvrede over het systeem. Maar ook een waarschuwing en roep tot actie. Bereid voor voor zo ver dat kan, en zet je website in een eigen rechtsvorm om niet persoonlijk aansprakelijk te zijn. Aan de andere kant heb ik in mijn netwerk vermoedelijk vooral techneuten, maar een hoop van deze geven net zoals mij geven om een vrij internet en de vrijheid misstanden te kunnen bespreken (online of offline). Hoewel deze lang niet allemaal op een paardenforum zullen zitten, zullen deze wel geven om het inhoudelijke probleem: onethische bedrijven met geld gebruiken rechtzaken om mensen die het geld niet hebben juridisch terug te vechten met de mond te snoeren. En wellicht dat iemand in mijn netwerk wel connecties heeft die zich hiervoor willen inzetten. Ik zet het niet vaak in een bericht erbij, maar gezien de hulpvraag voor een ander: Boosten = ❤️ Note dat ik verder niet betrokken ben, buiten dat ik op dit forum actief ben. Voor meer info zie deze post van de eigenaar van het forum (BartVB), waaronder hoe in contact te komen als je kan helpen: https://www.bokt.nl/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2139695 #vrijinternet #wegbijbigtech #nobigtech #internet #fora #forum #hulpvraag #hulp #jurist #juridisch #advocaat #Bokt #paarden #paard npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn 1/2 De pijn van het open internet: Grote bedrijven kunnen websites aanklagen, wetende dat ze niet zullen winnen, maar de eis zo hoog maken dat het naar de handelskamer moeten en een advocaat noodzakelijk is. De kosten hiervoor zijn zo hoog, dat de website-eigenaar deze vrijwel nooit uit eigen zak kan betalen. In je recht staan en je recht halen zijn helaas niet altijd hetzelfde. Dit gebeurd momenteel met Bokt, Nederlands grootste en oudste paardenforum. 1 van de laatste grote, actieve social media in het land los van Big Tech en de Fediverse. Waar een stal, die berucht is om het handelen van paarden met een oneerlijk verhaal omtrent gedrag en gezondheid, boos is dat men dit bespreekt en Bokt heeft aangeklaagd omdat dit daar besproken werd. Iets wat Bokt netjes actief modereert waar nodig, maar natuurlijk toestaat binnen wettelijke kaders. Immers, ervaringen (die op Bokt al enkel uit eerste hand mogen) kunnen delen is van maatschappelijk belang. In eerste instantie is de zaak pro bono opgepakt door een Bokt-moderator die in betaalde tijd jurist is, maar daar dit niet het vakgebied van diegene is kan die niet verder. Die heeft de eigenaar geholpen tot de kantonrechter, maar de stal in kwestie heeft de geiste schadevergoeding nu boven de 25K gezet waardoor ze dus door moeten naar de handelskamer, waar het officieel hebben van een advocaat verplicht is. Helaas is zo'n advocaat niet te betalen tegen vol tarief. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…umer well I guess that's one pro for sun allergy then 🤣🤣🤣. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn If you need to have any #allergy: don't choose the #sun.

But indeed, most of it is still unssuported and we're a long way off seeing that changed. Linux was stuck in the cycle of too small market share, therefor no devs are interested, therefor the marketshare didn't grow much. Valve seems to have broken that cycle a bit, causing devs to care more, causing more people to give it a chance. But it'll need time to really get a foot. I do think we're at a point where it's usable for mainstream people in general, but only with a big but that we need to be honest about the limitations and accept that not everyone will accept them. Some will be fine with it and just play another game until there is a fix, others will find it unacceptable and skip Linux for it. As much as the mainstream likes to overstate the issues of Linux (especially when compared to other systems that are deemed good enough), we Linux-fans tend to understate them. Personally, I think some nuance and realism is important to improve and gain long-term stability for gaming on Linux. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn The main issue still with #GamingOnLinux: 9/10 times "it just works". And really, it does! It's great! But when it doesn't... Let's say I just lost 2 days of my live getting #TheSims4 to run on my #SteamDeck again due to it breaking on the latest EA app. Couldn't find a fix yet online, so had to test some stuff myself and come up with my own solution. Uploaded the whole procedure to #ProtonDB, so with the next content refresh it should be public. But really, people who aren't as deep into it Linux and the technical side of gaming on it likely wouldn't have figured out how to make it run. My eventual fix made sense if you know how Wine and Linux work, it's not that complex once you got the answer. But for a random gamer who's not further into the topic (and just wants to play anyways)? A bit much to figure out from scratch... Luckily it does get better at rappid pace the last few years, I haven't seen these kind of workarounds needed in ages (so don't take this post too discouraging). But it's a good reminder that these issues aren't gone yet, and will be a blockade (in bigger or smaller degree) for mainstream usage until they are. #LinuxGaming #Gaming #Sims4 #Sims #TheSims #games #videogames npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…p9pq That sad feeling when this is pretty much the only certain information that can be posted about it at this point.

Verdict: a few tiny finicky things, but other than that even my GUI addons are working well. Definitly much better than before, and very playable. Which is great, I have a feeling it'll make me pick the game back up much more often. @nprofile…jnzr npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…v2dk @nprofile…jnzr Yeah I have that enabled. But Steam Play is only for Steam games afaik. Non-Steam games are but a mere shortcut to Steam, and getting them to use Proton is a pain hence using Lutris there. And you cannot link a Steam and non-Steam ESO account either, so simply installing it from Steam doesn't work either unless I want to loose 15 years of progress. Which might be good. The reason I have a Zenimax account for it rather than using my Steam one is because historically, the Steam client has been offline more often than the Zenimax one. Things like Crowns and ESO+ have also been easier to get with sales, although that kinda ended ages ago when physical sales of those stopped. But indeed, who knows. I don't think Zenimax will be likely to say much about it. Well. I'll test tonight 👍. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…v2dk @nprofile…jnzr I mean, I run it from Steam too. Non-Steam shortcuts are nice to have your whole library in one overview, especially on Deck 😝. I asked my partner to turn it on for updating, so hopefully I can test tonight when I get back from the office. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…v2dk @nprofile…jnzr I tried with a DS4 controller on Manjaro back then. But since it was a few years, I'm eager to try again. Dunno if the controls itself changed over time, but eager to try. And who knows, maybe if they didn't change, I did. Seems like a good moment to retry again regardless. Do hope these extra Steam Deck compatibility changes don't only work with Proton but are made on the side of ESOs code. I have the Zenimax launcher version and it's running in a regular Wine prefix setup with Lutris. Which overall works quite well. Since it came with update 50 I'd expect it's indeed a ESO code update and not a Proton update, but there's always a chance they got in contact with Valve or pushed some changes to them in the process of update 50 I guess. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…jnzr Oh cool. I once tested controller support years ago but it felt horrid back then so I stuck with mouse & keyboard. I mean, tbf every MMO either didn't work or the controlls where horendous and ESO was better than most. But it still wasn't a nice experience compared to M&K. Nowadays I rarely feel like taking my mouse and keyboard out to play games, meaning I rarely play ESO despite it being installed on my Deck. But this sounds promising! Perhaps it's time to give it another go with a controller 😏. #elderscrollsonline #ESO #TESO #elserscrolls #steamdeck npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…umer I mean, I never said need.

Most of my country still thinks the "Duitse bloed" in out anthem refers to Germany as we know it today, but explaining that it comes from "Duytsch" (and in fact is written as such in the original lyrics) which includes The Netherlands results in people still "correcting" about it 2 days later. Corrections which are almost all of them entirely in line with what I said, but add some context or focus on a different detail 🥲. And no, they're not meant as additions as they literally start with "you are wrong".

Can't order that with excludes flavours online tho, it only works in-store. My guess is Dominos knows but employees are paid too little to care. Reminds me of my student life hack of rigourously altering a pre-made pizza for sale. Pre-made options are often cheaper than the same pizza made custom, but each ingredient removed can be replaced for something else of the same value using the full custom-pizza value. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn Gothic I Remake actually released.

Er worden oorzaken en gevolgen door elkaar gehaald om te doen alsof die behoefte er niet is. Er worden geen gezinswoningen gebouwd zonder behoefte. Er worden geen gezinnen gesticht omdat er geen passende woningen zijn, en degene die er zijn niet te krijgen zijn door wie ze moet krijgen (waarvoor de waardedaling waarvoor gewaarschuwd wordt juist hard nodig is). Ik zeg dit overigens als iemand die met heel veel moeite en een hoop geluk op 2 boven modaal inkomens nét aan een gezinswoning heeft kunnen kopen vorig jaar. En als iemand die daar echt op heeft moeten wachten om zwanger te kunnen worden omdat het in de voor ons beschikbare appartementen daarvoor geen optie was. En ik ken velen anderen van mijn leeftijd die precies hetzelfde probleem hebben, waar het bij velen ondanks de degelijke banen niet lukt om een huis te kopen waardoor hun leven stil staat. En dan niet eens enkel in het westen van het land, maar ook midden en zelfs noord. Ter vergelijking, mijn ouders kochten ooit nog een gezinswoning voor minder dan 1,5 ton op 1 ruim onder modaal salaris. Dat is 1 generatie verschil. En als er te kort is aan stroom en dergelijke, laat dan bedrijven als Microsoft minder van die gigantische datacenters bouwen. Dit jaar weer 3 torens erbij puur omdat ze om de regeltjes heen werken en de overheid daar zogenaamd niks aan kan doen. En alle energie daarvan gaat naar belachelijke diensten als AI-services waar ze niet horen, tracking van burgers voor commerciele doeleinden van Amerikaanse grootbedrijven, en data die nooit AVG-compliant opgeslagen kan worden door die grote bedrijven. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…34kh Ik ben niet overtuigt. De waarschuwing is in mijn ogen in het belang van de investeerders en huisjesmelkers, niet de mensen die huizen nodig hebben Een gezinswoning kost je in het westen van het land al gauw een half miljoen momenteel, ook in dorpen etc. Die waardedaling is juist enorm gewenst voor starters. Starters die nu geen gezin stichten mede omdat ze in kleine (vaak veel te dure) appartementen zitten of thuis blijven wonen, en daardoor geen ruimte hebben voor gezinsuitbreiding. Ja, dan krijg je idd minder gezinnen.. Je kan zeggen "ga dan niet op zo'n dure plek wonen" maar half het land is inmiddels "dure plek" en de rest van het land is ook flink gestegen. Daarbij zitten daar de meeste bedrijven, waar mensen werken. En ook tegenwoordig is het vrijwel niet te doen om aan de andere kant van het land te wonen dan je werk Leuk dat er woningen over 25 jaar vrij komen door vergrijzing, maar dan zijn deze starters rond de 50. Die gaan geen gezinnen meer stichten. En vervolgens mis je een hele generatie een families, en naast dat dat voor die mensen kut is zullen daardoor dus ook volgende generaties niet komen Leegstand vind ik ook een rare in deze "gezinswoning" context. Woonhuizen worden nog steeds in weken, soms dagen, verkocht met enorme overbiedingen. Enige wat langer leeg blijft staan is het duurdere segment (de villa's, woonboederijen, en andere grote vrijstaande woningen). Maar die worden lang niet zo veel bijgebouwd. Dat samen gooien met starterswoningen onder de noemer "gezinswoning" geeft vertekend beeld Er zijn nu woningen nodig. Als er over 25 jaar overschot is door wat er vrij komt, kunnen woningen dan altijd nog afgebroken worden. Als je niks doet, krimpt je maatschappij hard in door het gebrek aan nieuwe generatie en wordt het vergrijzingsprobleem enkel erger, en dat bouw je niet ff bij npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…fetz Can I add "people can't predict weather on sight/feeling alone due to weather apps" to the list?

It's no magic, just feel-able things that hang in the air caused by things like humidity and air pressure combined with looking at the clouds and such. I was rather surprised when I moved towards cities and people just can't tell the upcomming weather that way. They didn't believe that I could until they saw for themselves over a longer period of time that mostly, I'm right when I say it will or will not rain soon. In fact, I'm right more often than those weather apps, which will never be just as local unless you have a weather station with you all the time. Weather apps got better in rural area's, so I'm afraid it will soon be lost entirely. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn Up to this day, I love how #Linux wins the #ERBOH between #SteveJobs and #BillGates. Imagine kids: Once these shitvideos where made by people dressing up as lookalikes, actually acting out the whole thing, filming and recording everything which rarely goes in one take, and then editing it by hand. And they where more funny than 95% of the AI shitvideos nowadays (I'll give you 5% because some áre really funny. A waste or resources, sure, but really funny). #shitpost #oldinternet #beforeAI https://youtu.be/njos57IJf-0 npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn When the #HR systems asks for a "reason" for filling a pregancy leave request on a dedicated custom pregnancy leave request form on a dedicated pregancy leave request page accessed by a dedicated "pregnancy leave" button in a different flow from a regular time off request. #truestory.

It keeps many workplaces locked in (not just at my place). As well as that it keeps people believing compatibility is shit and everything breaks between the two. I mean, sure it would be great if we all just switch to open software like LibreOffice. I'm all for! But such a big switch is not something I can get passed management and my hundreds (or EU-wide thousands) of colleagues easily. Not to forget there are always third parties that will be using MS Office, which will cause issues if not compatible with what the business uses. Now if I can have people use open formats from their current work spaces, that is something I can easily flow in. And the more we work open, the less compatibility with proprietary stuff becomes an issue and the easier it becomes to sell using open software instead. Which is most likely exactly why Microsoft doesn't feel very pressured to implement this properly... At least we can still use LibreOffice at work, as they've done a great job at ensuring those MS Office users' files are working pretty much flawlessly. Great love to them for that. Hopefully, one day it becomes redundant. npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn @nprofile…nxff wat zie ik nu? 1848 characters voor een post in plaats van 500? NICE :awesome:! npub1q3nq4nfwv6krdkg3dvxsl2x5qcjg9qzhdh3zunwpu26wl9m2s7cs76hs7j Cambionn I noticed today that #MSOffice Online now has an option to save files as #odt instead of #pttx. It made me wonder, can we change our files at work to open formats and have the MS using colleagues use them properly? That would be a great step :awesome:! Sadly, it seems not. Saving in MS Office breaks a lot of design in the files. Opening the pttx in @nprofile…e762 works perfectly fine. Saving from there as odt does as well. But then MS Office considers the working odt file "corrupt", disallowing online view. Seems like MS Office their implementation of open document standards is still lacking, so for anything requiring collaboration with MS Office users we're still stuck in proprietary formats.

Google doesn't advertise the Play Services requirement. Where the Play Integriti API thing is mainly used by big organisations (like banks) that have the resources to know better, reCaptcha runs on all kinds of websites. Including those from very non-IT people who think at most, they send some data to Google (which they likely underestimate already).
