Another excellent post, thanks for sharing! As someone who really likes rhythm games, Dead as Disco looks very interesting!

It seems a bit like Kickbeat mixed with Hi-Fi RUSH.

I know these posts get a lot of love already but it’s never enough, the effort that goes into each one is really appreciated! I feel like they add a lot of value to the community in terms of quality and activity so thanks!

As for feedback on the posts themselves, I really like the way they’re sectioned so they’re easy to navigate. Of course not every topic is going to be relevant to everyone but it’s easy enough to skip to the next section. The gifs are also great, I find they add so much like in the Expedition 33 example and they’re not overused.

I think by the way that there’s an image about tariffs missing in the 8BitDo section? Either that or it’s not loading for me!

I’d always heard that but I recently found out from a similar discussion on Lemmy that the pirated music story unfortunately comes from a different advert.

I remember liking that video the first time I saw it. If I remember correctly though, the creator of that video had quite a few sexual abuse allegations against him and I wasn’t really into it after that came to light.

This was really interesting! There were some cases where I felt like the low res quality of the image made it harder than it should be but maybe that was the intention. Does anyone know of a similar resource that also trains you to spot AI creations (outside of the obvious things like weird hands and feet)?

I saw they have two bags that are updated versions of existing models but now developed with AI and more expensive. I’m genuinely curious what “developed with help of AI” means here though - is it just a gimmick?

Just to add to this, I also like to use the “donate for a friend” option to gift friends a donation to Signal on their birthdays. It’s also $5 but a one-off thing, they get a neat badge for 60 days and perhaps it raises awareness of the donation option a little bit!

Am I blind or are none of these actually offered by Proton themselves?

I’m glad this is being brought up. As the article mentions, one of the affected games was the Ghost Trick remaster which received a 5.6GB update with no explanation. It was only through data mining that people realised Denuvo was removed in favour of Enigma.

The worst part for me is that Enigma lives up to its name and people have been left guessing about where it’s coming from. Some people think it’s Capcom’s in-house DRM while others are linking it to some Russian company with the same name that Capcom may have partnered with.

As I understand, this DRM has already been cracked so it’s not even stopping people who want to pirate the game. On the other hand, I love Ghost Trick and I wanted to buy gift copies for some friends over Christmas but this move really put me off.
