What search engine do you recommend that isn't Google or Bing?

I’m still trying to de-Google my life, little by little. I don’t trust Bing for similar reasons. DDG is feeling shady of late. What’s the search engine you all recommend that I can inject into my daily life? Is there perhaps a search engine that is focused on code, or have we just all moved on to AI for searching?...

Why do people hate on mobile games, call them "not real games" and mock them, when some mobile-exclusive games are the best games I've played?

The Infinity Blade or Minigore series, for example, or anything made by Illusion Labs. These games are genius and most consoles don’t even have a touch screen or utilise it well like some smartphone games do....

Because the big majority of mobile games are filled with ads, pay to win, made for ipad kids, have a very simple concept and are generally just copy pastes of the thousands of shitty games on the store.

What distro would you recommend for a 32-bit old Acer One laptop? (kbin.social)

It's an old model (Acer One D257) Processor is Intel Atom. Memory is 1GB DDR3 with 320 GB of HDD. I currently Have MX 21 running on it, but I need to reinstall because I forgot the root password. Since I'm reinstalling the OS, I thought I'd ask here for recommendations for an OS that makes the most of this oldie.

For people that complain, remember that its still more sturdy and easier than assembling windows.

Is linux good for someone tech illererate.

Now i’ve been considering moving to linux. I don’t have much of a history using a computer and find it tougher to use than my phone. But I also really appreciate the foss movement. I’ve currently got an old laptop running windows 11 I think and it would prolly speed up with linux too. But I’m afraid I’d fuck smth up...

Linux Mint is very easy with GUI’s for everything you need and the UI is pretty similar out of the box. Try it out on a live usb before making the switch.

Use it for caching more stuff to make your system even faster, virtualization and most importantly, browsers

What happened to the PC games (or what happened to consoles)?

I got out of video game piracy for a while, but I’m coming back. One thing I have been absolutely SHOCKED by is how finding PC game torrents is actually kind of difficult from my normal sources. Now it’d be one thing if I just wasn’t seeing games, but for some reason Playstation and Switch have far more uploaders and...

As I said, you can use UltimMC, its cracked, meaning that you have everything, but you cant join servers, only cracked ones. Good luck!

@jvrava9@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Its as easy if not easier. Download it from github and check it out. Its all the feautures of MultiMC with support for cracked. PolyMC is based on MultiMC so it might have a bit more feautures.

PolyMC is safe. If you read anything else, it’s simply political bullshit.

You can build it using the instructions here or download the artifact from Github actions here (You need a Github account).

Why torrent Minecraft? Use UltimMC (based on MultiMC) if you want a cracked launcher.

Just moved to Linux: a follow up

I recently made a post discussing my move to Linux on Fedora, and it’s been going great. But today I think I have now become truly part of this community. I ran a command that borked my bootloader and had to do a fresh install. Learned my lesson with modifying the bootloader without first doing thorough investigation lol....

Timeshift for backups is a godsend in these situations

I suggest using SearXNG and Startpage

100% vanilla distribution challenge

what does this consist of? Well, it’s easy, whenever you install a new distribution of Linux, don’t customise anything, nothing please!! Out of the box experience, you may install software but that’s all. And if you are already using a customised distro, then delete the .config file and reboot, but please be careful and...

I swear, OP does not know what he is talking about and is posting for clout, just look at his post history.

I dont’t think that you can forward ports other than 80 with free cloudflare tunnels.

jvrava9, (edited )
@jvrava9@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Use playit.gg instead of forwarding the port. You don’t need an account and it will provide you with a link that you can provide to your friends. Its very easy to set-up, just follow the following commands in the terminal and follow the on screen instructions.

I also recommend the Fabulously Optimized modpack for the best performance possible while staying vanilla. Here is how to install it.

Same here, cut contacts with 80% of my digital entourage, they don’t value speaking to me enough to switch to another app

I guess a web app manager like native a would work but I suggest paying for an account.
