  • How to rip copy-protected DVDs on Linux in 2024
  • ThemboMcBembo ThemboMcBembo Now 100%

    DVD readers often don't let you read from DVDs until opened by a valid program.... But stay unlocked after that.

    What I've done is open in VLC, close immediately, then use dd to copy the contents of the disc to an ISO

    I've never been able to get it to launch on Linux (Ubuntu 23, 16 GB, AMD Ryzen)

    "unciv" is a good FOSS Civ V clone! The gameplay is addicting and it runs on anything

    I wouldn't put too much stock in what they say, the clip is fine and I can't find anything disagreeable about the voice. I think this user is just upset at YouTube, not your content. Good work on this :)

    What are some good games that have a bad reputation due to unreasonable expectations?
  • ThemboMcBembo ThemboMcBembo Now 100%

    Definitely No Man's Sky

    It was bad at launch, sure, but the expectations of the game were way outta proportion to what a game could deliver on

    I would use some kind of CAD software to design a backplate, making sure to add things like physical supports with screwholes that match your motherboard's mount points and vents at the right spots. You can get things like that 3-D printed, would be an inexpensive way to prototype it :)

    Accessibility. People who can't grab or use an XBOX controller with their hands need to use custom controllers, including things like foot pedals.

    In my country, strikes are almost universally smeared as the worst evil anyone could possibly do. I would LOVE for a political leader to reinforce the validity of striking like this.

  • What is the current thinking about what platform Beehaw should be on? Stick with Lemmy or try something else?
  • ThemboMcBembo ThemboMcBembo Now 100%

    I sympathize with the large flaws in Lemmy that cause huge problems for moderators. I'd personally prefer to stay with it and continue to push the devs / community for upstream bugfixes (through PRs, open issues, or bug bounties), but I do understand if that becomes unmaintainable.

    If the user experience on a new platform is similar I'd likely stay; if it does change significantly, I most likely would switch to actively use a different Lemmy instance.

  • Do you prefer playing with Keyboard or controller more, and for what type of games?

    I spend all day at work with a keyboard and mouse, so I try to use a controller for absolutely everything else

    A friend recommended these for me, as a good pair to wear while out biking. I saw on Reddit, though, that they got delisted from Amazon for farming fake reviews. Do y'all know about this brand? Is it worthwhile for passable audio+mic, or just cheap shovelware?
