Yeah… I’m just concerned about some kind of malware payload or spyware. It’s been ramping up in vectors traditionally free from it, so trying to be careful with something that is designed to literally constantly monitor web usage. A spyware recording all the inputs and outputs of like… your bank website or healthcare… sub-optimal.
Hate is always foolish and Love is always wise.
Always try to be nice, but never fail to be kind.
Never be cruel.
Never be cowardly.
Never give up.
Never give in.

Has anyone vetted this is actually from the main author and not a scammer posing as him? I see no mention of this on the main website or GitHub.

It’s a great northern blurred owl. /s ;)
It’s really hard to tell without additional information. I would start by grabbing the Merlin app and using the guided search. It will take size, location, habitat, etc. into account and give you a list of things that are most likely. It’s free and run by Cornell University so it’s safe to use and accurate. It’s got a bunch of cool bird ID tools in it if you are into bird identification, so it’s neat to have.
I put KDE Fedora on a MacBook Air circa 2013 iirc. It’s old heh. It runs well but it hates the new kernel. So after a lot of poking around to find a solution to the full hardware kernel panic lockups I found it was a problem with the wifi, as usual. You might get luckier than me since it’s only a couple chipsets they use that choke.
That said even with that issue I just locked the kernel at 5.15 and it runs just fine. I started with 38 and I’ve upgraded every release until current without any issue.
Durandal@lemmy.todayto Games@lemmy.world•Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss - Closest modern equivalent?English7·28 days agoI’ve watched a couple of reviews for this recently because a couple people I know just got it on recent sales. What I’ve seen is that it really does try to lean into the feeling of UU games… ie it’s not just a dungeon crawler, but has a fleshed out story and dynamic interactions.
Looks like the recent price discount just ended with the end of the Steam summer sale… but it also looks like it drops that low fairly frequently. Though it’s not like it’s super expensive to begin with heh.
Durandal@lemmy.todayto Games@lemmy.world•Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss - Closest modern equivalent?English22·28 days agoIDK how “modern” you’re looking… Arx Fatalis was meant to be Ultima Underworld III but couldn’t due to the IP being owned by EA. The people at Arkane were in contact with the devs of Ultima Underworld though, as I understand it.
Some do, but because of the prevalence of automatic coffee machines and microwaves there isn’t as much of a need outside specialty coffee drinkers.
The argument about speed and convenience doesn’t work in the US because of the outlet voltage as well. The 110-120v outlets don’t provide the same level of power to kettles so they can’t heat up as quickly. If you have a microwave it’s just as fast or faster.

Merlin app is a godsend for those situations. :) 🐦
Ah. Good info. ebird to the rescue as usual. :)
I must have missed that the cismontanus also had the signature dark hood when I was looking into it before. I’ve always known Junco to look like that and when I started trying to identify them I found that most places list “dark eyed junco” as a little gray bird and found out that apparently the one I’ve known my whole life in the PNW was a specific regionally named variant.
Either way, they’re adorable and friendly little guys that hang around all year. :)
They’re pretty chill birds. They will come out to food if you leave it out. They like foraging on the ground naturally so even if it’s just seeds sprinkled out. They’re also known as “winter birds” because they’ll just stay around even in winter. I go out in the snow and sprinkle seeds all over the top of the snow cover and they’ll hop around all over it. :)
Forgot to mention it in my first post because I was stuck geeking about birds haha. Nice pictures. I like the one where it’s facing the camera particularly.
I learned recently that this is a specific variety, the Oregon Junco. So it’s a PNW variety and unique to the region with its signature dark head.
Oh WTF. It’s not like we need stuff like that. I’m sure all these big corporations will look out for us on their own. 🤦

Awesome, thanks. github is a pain in the butt to navigate, so I must have just missed it. Appreciated.
