Your IP address can be pegged to a location, so if you’re not behind a VPN or some other tech to obscure your IP, then someone may be able to determine who and where you are from your Lemmy account.

Just a heads up, if I disappear and someone is reading this comment history after the fact: I will never kill myself, and maybe you need to look into trethis. As I said, I received fourteen of these messages today.

Thanks, i just doubled checked to make sure my VPN was on for my phone as well… I got fourteen of them today. That’s… Weird.

To make the CLI even easier, just set up an alias in you bashrc file for it. I made it so I just need to type “yt” instead of “yt-dlp”. Small change, but helpful imo.

I played Anno 1800 with Proton a week or two ago and it worked just fine… I didn’t have to log in, I just exited Uplay when it popped up and the game still worked.

Dunno if that’s the case for all Uplay games or if I got lucky.

Will this affect Invidious, or apps like FreeTube?

I’m guessing yes…

Can’t speak to the build quality of System76, but my FW is built like a goddamn tank.

Nah you need to create a cipher in your head, then you tattoo the encrypted seed. Easier to remember than the seed itself, and only readable by you.

Maybe have a second tattoo to remind you what the cipher is lol. Then another for that one…

Monero if you need something that’s actually untraceable. However, I guess btc is more likely to hold its value in the long term.

I don’t begrudge you for not knowing this, it certainly wasn’t something that I was taught in school… But LGBTQ people, and trans people specifically, were among the first groups targeted by the Nazis in Weimar Germany.

I am well aware that communists were pretty high up on that list as well, but maybe there’s a reason why the LGBTQ stuff wasn’t taught to us in school…

Go ahead and do some of your own research on it if you don’t believe me.

How were the circumstances “MUCH different”? Do you think the Nazis happened overnight? Are you not aware of who they targeted first (trans people)?

Yeah, it’s kind of a bad take. Maybe we should teach people what the word actually means so that they can understand that the applies to everything they’re doing*

What do you do when those people are your family?

Easier said than done (though recent events have made it a little easier).

I would say that the initial problem here, is that people give a single shit what a 2000+ year old, bronze-age sex manual, has to say about literally fucking anything.

What a fucking stupid, useless reply.

What others said… I think I’ve even run the installer as a non-steam app through Steam using proton and that worked as well. Unless I’m misremembering.
