Exactly. Locking basic services behind apps should be illegal. Services must be accessible to everyone.

NekuSoul@lemmy.nekusoul.deto Technology@lemmy.world•Google will require developer verification for Android apps outside the Play StoreEnglish28·3 days agoWhat’s extra funny is that I already did all of this, and yet, I’ve been informed that my developer account is subject to deletion because I’m not active enough. Since my game does not get regular updates I said F this, let them delete my account. It’s still available for sideload on itch.io anyway. Jokes on me for believing that.
So yeah, it seems like Google is actively hostile towards building a library of software/games that just work and intentionally only wants live service garbage apps on their platform because those make more revenue.
NekuSoul@lemmy.nekusoul.deto Technology@lemmy.world•LibreOffice is right about Microsoft, and it matters more than you think.English10·14 days agoThis, so much. Looking back, it’s just insane that pretty much every program you don’t regularly use will beg for updates on Windows. There are some bandaids like WinGet now that I appreciate, but it’s still nowhere as seamless as when the OS and the whole ecosystem around it are designed with a package manager in mind.
A huge chunk of the time I have to spend on tinkering is probably already saved by me not having to wait for updates.
NekuSoul@lemmy.nekusoul.deto Games@lemmy.world•Digital Foundry, the most trusted name in game console analysis, is going independentEnglish22·22 days agoI mean, becoming owned by IGN was ultimately a good thing, as the previous owners were apparently preventing DF from going indepent before. At least that’s how I understood it from their announcement video.
NekuSoul@lemmy.nekusoul.deto ErgoMechKeyboards@lemmy.world•Bootloader not registering as disk on my first ergomech4·26 days agoLooks like your keyboard actually has lots of revisions with different controllers.
Thankfully, this page on the QMK repository lists all of them and the different commands for compiliing: https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/bastardkb/tbkmini
You’ll have to figure out if you have the v1 or v2 of the Elite-C revisions and use that.
NekuSoul@lemmy.nekusoul.deto ErgoMechKeyboards@lemmy.world•Bootloader not registering as disk on my first ergomech7·27 days agoSo, based on the parts list on Github, I believe these actually have Elite-C controllers, which, as you’ve already noticed have an ATmega32 on them instead of the Raspberry Pi Pico. While the Pico will act like a disk when flashing, the ATmega will have to be flashed with the QMK CLI, or the QMK Toolbox on Windows.
At the very least you can still pay a small one-time fee for the DWD WarnWetter app (or enter a code for firefighters).
Best 3€ I’ve ever spent purely out of spite, even if the reason behind it is complete BS.
