I joined the waitlist months ago and all I heat is Bluesky is growing but I still have no news about being able to use it…

For the next time, if you want .flacs, just use Soulseek.

Option 1: Firefox (or any firefox variant like Floorp, Waterfox or LibreWolf) + uBlock Origins, if that doesn’t work -

Option 2: avoid the sites, don’t give them traffic, and -

Option 3: if you really need to read that article, use 12ft ladder and it will probably work.

How do you know what he meant?

Because he said “Hamas sympathizers” in lieu of “Palestinian sympathizers”.

Wait, I do a similar one to the twist and tuck but what I do is that I twist it and then partially re-cover the remaining breads, would that put me with the twist and tuck people or an I something else?

They can obviously track pirated installs.

They use computational predictions and quantum mathematical calculations through a software called trust me bro.

I think this is better tbh, I personally don’t like it when piracy forums/sites/whatever piracy related thing goes too mainstream. Maybe it’s gatekeeping, I don’t know, I just don’t want another Z-Library incident.

Either way, they probably aren’t even against piracy, they’re probably just lazy and don’t want to deal with any of the issues they could potentially face down the line.

Edit - grammar

Yep, every driver is up to date. In fact I just did a fresh windows install once again, updated all drivers once again, and the problem still persists.

The games however are stored in a secondary ssd, so the next thing I’m gonna do is install them on the main, and some of them on an external one, just in case it’s a faulty SSD.

If that’s not it then I have no clue.

Yeah I’m about to give up with these games as well and just not play them, I just finished a clean Windows install again and it still didn’t work, I feel like I’m going insane here haha

I’ll definitely try that tomorrow when I wake up, I just did a fresh install of Windows 11 and it still won’t work, thanks for that recommendation, I have an external ssd so maybe it’ll work like that.

Definitely something wrong with my OS and I’m currently making yet another clean install, because the weird thing is that I’ve played all these games before (except BG3) on the same laptop, I was just replaying them for fun.

I just wanted to see if there was someone else with the same issues or something similar.

Specs are fine

AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, RTX 3050Ti, and 32GB RAM, it’s a Legion 5 (2021)

All games mentioned run 100fps+ on High and I was watching the graphs, temperatures of 60-80C on the CPU and 50-75C on the GPU so those were fine (at least for a laptop)

What you’re saying makes a lot of sense, but, the weird thing is that, except for Baldur’s Gate 3, I already played all these games in my laptop before. I was just replaying them for fun, I just didn’t know if somebody else had the same issues.

I think I’ll just make another clean install and see what happens, this situation has me so confused tbh haha

This is a thing that I think only happens in the US.

I moved to Brazil from the US and my wife found it super weird that I asked her how much would they charged me after she asked me to activate my hotspot.

I use Internet Download Manager and it has worked like a charm for me. It’s paid, but you can find the pirated version easily!

I tried JDownloader but it didn’t work for me, I’m kind of dumb though so it might have been my fault that it didn’t work in my browser/computer.

Edit: wanted to add that for torrents I’ve been using Qbittorrent, imo it’s the best

You lose it and never hear from it again. Happened to me, had to open another account in another instance because of that, it’s a shame but I guess that’s the risk until we get something that is some kind of Backup->Restore->Move account or something.

You can find it on Rutracker, that’s shere I got it from, it’s not the latest latest, but I have the v2.0.0

After reading this post I was looking on rutracker to see if they uploaded a newer version, but the website seems to be down for me at the moment.

My mother is like this as well, when I was little she used to only say “come here!”, and if I wasn’t showing up right next to her she wouldn’t say what she wanted to say, she would just stay silent. Sometimes it was only to let me know it was someone’s birthday.

She even says it unconsciously now. She lives in Venezuela, I live in Brazil now, and during calls she still says “come here” and every time I tell her “Now how am I gonna go there right now? Are you paying for the plane tickets?”

It’s not just you, you’re not mental, it’s fucking frustrating and at some point in my life I just decided not to react to her “come here” and keep quiet until she tells me what she wants, otherwise I’m not interested.

Shit, forgot to write about Summit, it was one of the ones I liked the most but only when I’m viewing content as a “list” as opposed to “cards”, IMO that’s when Summit shines more than any other app.

I feel like Summit works more for me as a news site rather than a “social media” app, so I like that a lot. I’m still jumping in between apps atm.

Oh, and Voyager JUST released as an official app in the play store, I just saw the post a few minutes ago.

Tbh I didn’t notice the ads haha I have ads completely removed from my device using a private DNS so none of the apps I use show me ads.

I prefer supporting devs via donations whenever I have the extra money but I’m waiting for the lifetime donation for Sync, I not doing aubscription models and I have 0 tolerance for ads.

Like you, though, I’ll be jumping from time to time to other apps because what I’ve been loving about this Fediverse experience more than anything is how every app has been evolving and updating, it’s just amazing.

I’m also waiting for Boost and Infinity to realease, god damn this is why I love competition.

I use Sync because it’s just what I’m used to. I’ve been using it for more than 3 years, but I’ve also used Jerboa, Thunder, Liftoff, Lemotiff, Connect and Voyager.

Here’s what I think about those:

Jerboa is good, maybe a bit laggy and things take a bit to load, but overall good. Nothing that stands out.

Thunder is very good, but I’ve been unable to reply DMs and comments from my notifications, I’d have to go to the browser or use another app to reply. I’m almost sure it’ll get fixed in the future.

Connect is very, very good, but, and it’s a huge BUT for me, every time I’m commenting and I want to change part of my comment, I click on the part I want to add or erase more text but instead of doing that it selects the text from where I was to where I clicked, and it happens with every comment and DM, to fix it I have to copy the whole thing, go back to the post, paste the comment again and keep on writing. I stopped using it.

Liftoff is very good, but I don’t like that when I collapse a comment it says “comment collapsed, tap to expand” (that’s it, it’s just nit picking, everything else is good), I still sometimes use the app.

Lemotiff I can’t log in but the idea/design is good.

Voyager is one of the best but sometimes it jumps to random parts of the timeline, I also prefer having an app not a PAW (or was it PWA? I don’t remember the correct term)

Lemmur says my instance doesn’t exist so I can’t even try it.

Haven’t used infinity or Boost yet, just downloaded Sync and it just works perfectly.
