    I’m not changing mine until (1) after the 30th, (2) game is back on for purchase in restricted countries, and (3) Sony doesn’t backpedal yet again before then.

    Look, I honestly get the sentiment and AH deserves the praise for sure, but at this point I honestly can’t confidently say I trust Sony to not just be doing all this for positive PR.




  • The first time I tried a sausage sizzle from Bunnings, I was a bit disappointed. Maybe it’s because all my mates have been recommending giving it a try and hyping it up and whatnot, and I was really looking forward to it when I finally got around to it, but I didn’t really find it all that after the fact.

    I mean, it’s not bad. It’s a couple of bucks, it’s a great sausage on white bread, I’d get it again no worries. I kinda just expected more I guess.


  • Not the OP, but if youve got your own domain, you can register it with Proton so that you can create email addresses on it that route to your Proton inbox.

    How it’ll work is:

    • Proton will ask you to verify you own the domain (by adding a few TXT records on it)
    • then Proton will give you some MX records you can add to your domain so that mail routes to Proton using your domain.


  • Had an appointment for an NBN tech visit yesterday morning, cause the internet in the place we moved into was shot. Mate came in at 830 in the morning.

    He quickly determined it wasn’t our box that’s the problem, but a faulty thingamajig on the street post, but he didn’t have the right parts on him. He had to leave, but he promised he’d get it sorted within the day. We were prepared to wait it out until the Monday, but mate came back on at almost 7pm on a Friday, just to get it sorted like he said, and sorted it he did.

    Just thought that was so nice of him, and I really appreciate it. Gave him a drink early on, but wish I gave him more of it, and hopefully he doesn’t mind all his work went into a night’s worth of very bad Dota.



  • I actually thought the organization stuff is pretty good, coming from keepassxc myself. The way we have it set up is that each of the members of our family all have VW accounts, and we have a common organization shared among us for stuff we all use (e.g. home devices). It’s all in one installation, so it’s pretty convenient. I don’t think I can do the same as easily with keepass.

    That being said, keepass is a really solid piece of software. I’d recommend it myself.

    Yeah I just wish the lemmy ONI community was a bit more active. I should be above 2K hours in now too, and I haven’t won yet. My current run I’m trying to get up to 20 dupes while also trying my first attempt at something magma power.



  • I’m admittedly not as knowledgeable about it as I’d like, but I also have a similar system. A primary encrypted Linux partition wuth a dualboot into Windows for times I absolutely need to go into it (which admittedly has been coming up less and less).

    What I tell myself is that, sure, in the best case that everything works as I’d like, the rootkit can never bleed into the Linux side of stuff, and I’m really only ever at risk when I’m actively on the Windows, and even then if Riot remains a good citizen, nothing will happen. It’s an (increasingly) small window of vulnerability.

    Thing is, I’ve seen complete systems go down because of “small windows of vulnerabilities” before. Catastrophic failures, more times than I’d have liked. Who knows, maybe someday someone manages to exploit that window and use it to, for example, piggyback into your home network and access your devices. I dunno, call me paranoid.

    In my head, installing something like a kernel anticheat is really not worth it. It’s a huge over reach of privilege for so little gain for the user. And frankly, I don’t trust Riot to be a good citizen with that much privilege on my machine.
