Mullvad VPN: Introducing Defense against AI-guided Traffic Analysis (DAITA)
  • No port forwarding really kills the utility though - I mainly use the VPN to do port forwarding (e.g. for video games, Plex, etc.) as my ISP is shit.

    Like I'm not worried about state-level de-anonymisation, I just want to be able to share services remotely and have a minimum level of anonymity.

  • EU must cut ties with Israel to prevent Gaza genocide - UN rapporteur
  • Hamas is still holding innocent Israelis hostage and sexually assaulting them.

    If Morocco sent gangs over the Spanish border to rape and murder (even babies) and took hundreds of hostages, no-one would ask Spain to negotiate a ceasefire while the hostages are still suffering.

    Hamas must be destroyed. It's disgusting that the EU and UN have been funding them directly.

  • Why aren't more people creating new operating systems, considering that macOS, Windows, and Linux were developed by individuals with computer science and programming skills?
  • Because now you can just use Linux or BSD. That wasn't the case when Linux was developed.

    So it only really makes sense for special cases - like Huawei's new OS for phones (they cannot use Android), or Google's attempt at a new kernel for Android too (they want to escape the GPL).

  • US embassy warns of imminent attack in Moscow by 'extremists' [March 8th]
  • Innocent people have died, why are you making jokes about a fictional video game (clear evidence the propaganda works) and accusing them of being executed by their own government like a 9/11 Truther?

    ISIS have claimed responsibility. We should show solidarity with the victims - we too have been victims of similar ISIS attacks in the UK, France, Germany, Spain, Israel, etc.

    Hopefully Russia can do well in the fight against Islam.

    The Santiago Boys - new podcast about Allende's Project Cybersyn

    open.spotify.com The Santiago Boys

    Listen to The Santiago Boys on Spotify. Cybersyn was a project created by the Chilean President Salvador Allende. His idea was to build a large digital network serving the socialist government. It was a sort of internet before the internet, that would have made centralization possible, allowing to p...

    Solasta has excellent Steam Deck support btw

    Solasta: Crown of the Magister has incredible Steam Deck support btw and is currently on a 60% sale. I bought it as I have some flights coming up and wanted to get more familiar with D&D5e before BG3 comes out.

    Obviously buying it right now is a bit like "we have Baldur's Gate 3 at home..." but I was pleasantly surprised by how great the Steam Deck support is. It's like they must've tested it on the Steam Deck specifically.

    There's a few minor issues with small text, but aside from that it's great.

    It's awesome to see games get official controller support for the Steam Deck. Hopefully Baldur's Gate 3 will have as great support as well.

    What are your favourite offline, low power-usage games?

    I'll be travelling soon and was wondering what are good games for low power-usage and offline?

    Previously I enjoyed:

    • Into The Breach
    • Baba Is You
    • Vampire Survivors
    • Super Mario All-Stars (SNES)

    At the moment I'm planning to set up:

    • Lufia 2 (SNES)
    • Shadowrun (SNES + Genesis versions)
    • Golden Sun (GBA)
    • A Link To The Past (SNES)
    • Minish Cap (GBA)
    • A Link Between Worlds (NDS) - never played it, hopefully the controls map well!
    • Fire Emblem: Awakening (NDS) - same as above, never had a NDS
    • Oracle Of Ages (GBA)
    • Chrono Trigger (SNES)
    • Ogre Battle 64 (N64) - not sure how bad the power usage is on the N64 emulators

    Maybe the Ace Attorney and Professor Layton series too which I haven't played. Also GTA1, London and 2 if they work. I love Advance Wars too but I've played it too many times already.

    Basically anything that is easy to run, low power, and easy to play with just the controls and small screen in a cramped space. Ideally nothing too difficult / stressful like Hollow Knight that could be hard to play without good screen brightness or cramped.

    I like a lot of older PC games but unfortunately they're difficult to play without a mouse and on the small screen - e.g. Ultima VII and Arx Fatalis.

    Is there a way to block images from auto-loading in comments?

    Ideally like RES used to be - you have to click on an icon to load and show the image.

    Unfortunately this image auto-loading has been frequently used for abuse already. But it is also quite annoying when amongst a lot of text comments and lends itself to low-effort memes.
