from your comment it seems like you think they deserved to die, and immediately copy pasted your wall of text when someone accused you of racism. not a good look i must say.

personally im fine with machine learning, what I don’t like is “AI”, a new marketing buzzword that justifies every shitty corporate exec decision and insane company evaluations.
it really wasn’t people just liked to compare both of them because both of them were “fps hero shooter” but the core gameplay and mechanics were very much different.
heavy. heavy is good. i like heavy. sandvich.
i haven’t played it that much since my ping was atrocious, but i would say no. IIRC beside membership and cosmetics that you can buy with gold, i think you can covert it into silver which you can use to progress faster and even buy gear but you won’t gain an unfair advantage or get something that’s exclusive to the MTX shop.
you should read what experienced players have written if you want a more detailed explanation, im just sort of vaguely familiar with the game.
Albion online seems like a good fit for you, although based on your location your ping will massively vary since they only have a few centralised servers.

thanks. 32% of malicious traffic is still a lot. the 50% increase in bad traffic in gaming is interesting though.
can’t read this article, can some explain what their definition of bot is?
is your country a member state in WTO? are your copyright laws compatible with that of the US? does your country recognise foreign copyright claims from the countries that your pirated media comes from?
your worst risk as someone who just pirates safe media for personal consumption is getting a letter from your isp and that only happens if there are laws against it on the books and your isp feels threatened. if your country simply doesn’t enforce its copyright laws it’s unlikely you’ll be chosen to be punished to set an example (they’ll most certainly target notorious distributors) and your chance of getting sued by a media company amongst thousands of potential defendants in what i assume is a third world country is almost non existent.
Roku is a pioneer in most of this crap but don’t be fooled to think that only cheap stuff is gonna have these and that somehow you are safe if you spend a lot on your TV. as it turns out high end and average TV producers would also like to squeeze the tiniest profit margins out of their consumers and if they could get away with it they would do the same.
in fact nowadays most TVs regardless of price are actually collecting and selling your data and in the best case it’s an opt out option in the worst possible place in the menu.
the actual update size for the application is logical as far as i remember, it’s the other stuff alongside it (i think related to graphics card) which is the real issue. it added around 500MB each update while the actual update itself might’ve been 10 or 20 MB.

purely as an end user i hate how much it downloads with each update and how much it uses the disk space although that’s much less of an issue. i know it’s solving a real problem and relieving a lot of the headaches of developers maintaing packages for each distro’s specific package standard, but it’s simply not the software distribution solution for people without at least well enough internet.
i wouldn’t use any distro with flatpaks as its main way of delivering software and i would in almost all cases always choose alternatives even if it’s outdated. i don’t necessarily hate flatpak itself but for me i don’t want to spend money on extra data cap and wait 30 minutes for a small update for my game launcher to finish.
the appimage of one of the applications i was interested in was 3 times less than the average flatpak update so redownloading the appimage every time would be better. if i installed more packages yeah the math would be better but it’s still wasted data per update no matter how small it actually is. i found out after a while of using flatpak that i wouldn’t just update and was stuck with outdated software anyway.
if you’re in one of the “far-left” instances or unmoderated instances that are sources of spam, you’re probably gonna get judged, otherwise no. i didn’t know lemmy.ml had this reputation and made my account here as well but i don’t really mind since i don’t have that many issues with moderation here.
“a normal guy without any politic side” is a very political position and i suggest you find an instance that agrees with that position since a very important filter on what you can or can not see is the admins of the instance you are using. i doubt you are missing much on lemmy.ml but you can always try other instances and see which communities they have there that isn’t present on lemmy.ml.
as a side note lemmy is, disappointingly, just another digital social media platform but federated. you’re still gonna see people fight, throw their opinions at each other and in general talk about politics. a large segment of people on lemmy are either reddit refugees or people that were rejected from other social media. yes on average people here tend to be older and more educated compared to general population that use the internet, but most people here are outside the “norm”.
sorry i don’t know enough about multiplayer or local multiplayer games although if you’re looking for a Co-op game i would recommend It Takes Two. it’s simple but has its own charm. beware it’s a third person game and has some shooting sections in it but it’s beginner friendly enough.
i think city builders and management/tycoon games would be great for these situations cause if you like them there’s no upper limit on playtime. cities skyline and RollerCoaster Tycoon are both great. if you’re looking for something like factorio satisfactory could also work.
of course adventure games or puzzle games are also a great fit since most of them tend to have simple controls but great story and humor and hard puzzles that can keep you busy while solving them is satisfying. i’ve made a post recently on this community asking for people’s recommendations so definitely check that out.
there’s also this lovely little game called Townscaper. it’s really simple you just add or remove blocks on a non-rectangular grid on a sea and the game tries to generate a pleasant looking town. it might sound lackluster on paper but it’s fun and you can get some hours out of it developing your town and discovering the town style rules (there is also some hidden structures that can pop up discovering those is also fun).
it’s completely ok to not like or even hate wayland but this ain’t it. i don’t know if that’s true, but even if wayland is so shit that every compositor needs a separate compatibility patch i still don’t see how that’s restricting your freedom or app developers’ freedom or any kind of freedom. if it’s so cumbersome to support wayland then devs won’t support it and people won’t use it. no one is forcing anyone to do anything no one is ruling through software even if apps drop xorg in a free software environment people can pay developers to keep maintaining for xorg.
genuinely asking how does it restrict your freedom?
why do you dislike it though?
yeah your empathy is really showing here.
