From the Grayjay FAQ:

Does Grayjay require a subscription?

No, We offer a way to pay for the app once. The app will function identically without paying.

Yeah that’s not very typical, I’d like to make that point.

Out of the 133 countries where Helldivers 2 was previously locked out of, now there are only 7:

1. Belarus
2. Cuba
3. Iran
4. North Korea
5. Russian Federation
6. Syria
7. Viet Nam

Update: now there are 8… Japan was added to the list: https://steamdb.info/sub/137730/info/

However it looks like Japan has its own individual game package so players aren’t actually locked out over there.

Announcement from the Institute for Justice, which took up this case:
https://ij.org/press-release/u-s-supreme-court-sides-with-atlanta-family-in-wrong-house-raid-case/

A deeper dive on the case here:

Body camera footage is also included lower on the page under the “Video” section.

Definitely a great nonprofit firm that does a lot of good work bringing cases before the Supreme Court. Especially for those that can’t afford to do so.

Has it been? I just got the email from Steam a few hours ago that it’s Live now. They must be really late to notify everyone in that case.

Looking through the community it looks like they had originally planned to release the demo today, but ended up releasing it early on June 5th, and the game will only be available to play until the 16th.

Edit: typo

That’s the one, looks like they switched names about a year ago?

GrayJay if you’re on Android. Go to download, then select None for Video, and choose the audio quality at the bottom that you want.

There’s a desktop application for GrayJay as well that should also support downloading it.

Here’s an open letter to the Organic Maps Shareholders with the most info:
https://www.comaps.app/news/2025-04-16/1/

Which is referenced in the article here:
https://news.itsfoss.com/organic-maps-fork-comaps/

And discussed on the OpenSource community here:
https://lemmy.world/post/30461779

Basically some drama went down between the devs.

• Organic Maps has remained an LLC instead of transitioning to a Nonprofit.
  • The projects finances have not been made public (they’re not required as an LLC) and there are concerns about how that money is being used.
• There was a decision made to include Kayak affiliate links in the app: https://web.archive.org/web/20250602163403/https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/pull/6523
• The current board only consists of 3 people: Roman (@rtsisyk), Viktor (@vng), and Alexander (@biodranik). Major decisions can’t be made if only 1 person objects.
• The code for their map download service was closed sourced when an MIT license was removed and there were concerns about Organic Maps keeping in line with its open source values: https://web.archive.org/web/20250523094656/https://github.com/orgs/organicmaps/discussions/9837#discussioncomment-11569196
  • When these concerns were raised, Alexander (@biodranik) revoked Roman’s (@rtsisyk) access https://web.archive.org/web/20250427142515/https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/pull/9860
  • The situation was resolved about a week later with the code for the map download service becoming public and With Roman’s access being restored.

Edit: ‘to’ the shareholders, not from

You could use Ruffle since its an emulator for Flash:

Websites like HomestarRunner use this so you can still experience the site as it was intended.

I mean, it really depends on how you define scam. If you’re so loose with the definition that you would have considered No Man’s Sky a “scam” when it first released, then I can understand that.

Otherwise it’s not really a scam. There’s a free trial going on right now in Star Citizen.You’re free to check out the game for yourself. It’s in a really good state compared to what we’ve previously seen (not even close to bug free, but way more playable than before).

Sure, larger businesses have more developers to get more work done. But there comes a time when throwing new developers at a problem convolutes the process and actually slows things down more than it helps.

Something that seems simple to you like a flashlight attachment may not be so simple under the hood.

Solo indie devs have an advantage because they’re familiar with all of the code. They’re the ones that wrote it.

They don’t need to learn a new part of the code when making fixes or changes. They don’t need to explain to another dev that “you don’t change how this information is passed in here because you’ll need it to look just like that in some other section that you’ll never touch”.

Additionally any decisions/changes/etc. are all decided by one person, no need for meetings to get everyone on board and explain exactly what you want to do. No need to try to get everyone to understand your vision for what you want to happen.

A famous comic might explain this process a little better:

Thanks! This will definitely help me to remember it from now on.

Then there’s also the download then upload into the comment approach:

It’s not an easy answer, but the best way I’ve found so far is to use GrayJay.

If I find that one of the content creators I follow on YouTube happen to post their content on any other platform, I switch my subscription to that platform.

Besides YouTube they support Nebula, Twitch, Odysee, PeerTube, Dailymotion, Bitchute, Kick, BiliBili, Rumble, Patreon, and more.

Yeah, they definitely should focus on adding more RAM to their flagship phones, but smaller models are ideal for smartphones.

Smaller models are quicker to run and use up less battery. Besides, if they’re using some AI models I would rather it be run locally than have my data uploaded to some server somewhere (big assumption that they wouldn’t do that anyway, I know)… Or at the very least I can still run it even if the network goes down.

I doubt it would work well, but with enough training data it would be able to pick up on some areas. Especially if there are large landmarks in the frame (mountains/hills/rivers, etc.).

One interesting alternative would be the Visual Positioning System (VPS) that Niantic has built from Pokemon go player data. Basically you can take a picture outside and your phone will know exactly where you are:

https://www.nianticspatial.com/locate#vps

https://arstechnica.com/ai/2024/11/niantic-uses-pokemon-go-player-data-to-build-ai-navigation-system/

Too bad they’re getting close to being bought out by a company that’s notorious for squeezing out every penny from their player base.

Edit: Correction, Pokemon Go is being bought from Niantic… The company itself is not being bought.

I’d say the chances are pretty high.
