  • Never have I expected to be hacked on Discord. Thank goodness I caught wind of it just as soon as it started.

    If you only downloaded a soundtrack, you should never had gotten an executable with it. That's a major red flag. Only thing you can do once you get an infostealer is do a complete reinstall of Windows and change your passwords, but if you did that without getting hacked again, then thank god you got it sorted. Sorry to hear about that, DragonMals.

    Reminds me of the good old days when downloading .mp3.exe files off Limewire was a real threat.

    What happened?
    There was this discord server I used to be in called "All Things Linux." Its a wonderful server that gotten me into Linux, and when I needed help, people who've helped were kinda easily accesible.

    Fast forward to today (or a couple days ago), and the server gotten destroyed, rebuilt, and nuked all cause of the main owner being outed as a pedophile.
    I am really temped to make a blog post on either my website or here on moderation and the way for it to be effective on the long run.
    can you voluntarily ask the mods to be banned off a section of the forum so that you don't have to ever interact with such

    I remember vins saying to someone or someone saying to someone that they had apart of the forum removed for something I forgot
    man, how long has it been since bluesky has been down? i want to see the replies poeple have made to me talking about the post that i made on here

    I don't get supporting so many different social media sites, if the same people are going to join it which it will it will eventually just become the same garbage.

    The only reason I use Bluesky is because the muting and blocking of words and people actually works, and I can even disable the timeline considering all I see is nothing but people complaining about everything on there

    I also want to have a better place to post my reviews since for them to be on the discovery feed for the website I use, I gotta pay for it
    Where do I go to talk about major issues that I have with this site? The mobile version of accessing DMs is incredibly broken as foe a while, i havent been able to press the "post reply" button yo talk with someone meanwhile when you press ctrl+enter given the right conditions it works. It even works fine on desktop. I wished for it to be fixed because the convenient of using it is broken

    Posted a new arcticle regarding the Neo Geo AES+. Making these are so incredibly challenging given how doing this stuff is new to me, but I'm hoping that I'm doing a decent job with the ones I'm doing so far.

    OH MAN! I ACTUALLY GOTTEN ONTO THE FRONT PAGE!

    also I assumed that scarlet have done some changes to make it better? Thank you! If you're able to tell me what exactly you've done to make the thing better, please let me know so I can continue improving :D

    Congrats, you made it to the top! :grog::toot:
    I am TIRED of being in places where the moderation is too soft. People like to think that mods have too much power, but I refuse to believe otherwise since the more power they have, the more they're able to tone down incompetent users that don't follow the rules.

    Im glad to be here, this place got good moderation in its finest: Active mods both silly and serious, and ain't hesitant to put actions against arguments

    even though there's been suggestions regarding reverting it back to how it used to be, banning people as what they're supposed to, the thread has closed and so far no changes to the system have been made.

    Really wanna appreciate this forum to its fullest due to the concept being extremely useful and resourceful but they need to beef up their mods

    "Reader mode" effectively sounds like the same thing as using the site logged out, which you could still do if you were banned.

    Word of advice don't always get involved in drama you have no control over. If you show less irritation it will eventually annoy the person causing the problem more.
    I wonder if there'll ever be a place where your opinions on AI won't be flabbergasted by either sides of the hatin or lovin AI coin.

    I hate it personally considering that the perfect use case for AI is overshadowed by by the worst cases (e.g: GenAI, DLSS5, + replacing ppl's jobs), but there's nothing worse than having to see people argue about it like it's some of form of a political opinion.

    The heated discussions are taking into a point where things that are even unrelated have people making assumptions on other members who disagree with them on their take on AI or something akin. I remember talking in a forum about good mobile browsers, and-

    Someone brought up a web3 based browser (which I remember web3 being cryptocurrency and NFT based), and didn't want to use it due to such, and that same person thought I was a technology demon.

    These topics brings the worst out of people, and all I just want to talk about is games and actual good use cases of AI.

    As long as it is still a trend that is sensationalized beyond reason there can never be a good time to discuss it without making somebody act irrationally
    Who uses the blog section of GBATemp, and which was the last logged blog so that I can watch their thoughts (similar to how I do on my website?)

    Before GBAtemp had an upgrade to XenForo 2 the blog section was way more visible. Comments appeared in the recent content box, not only new entries.
    Notifications are completely broken. Quoting another comment works and tagging users with @

    I didn't even know that the blogging system had been broken! I hope that it eventually gets fixed since I honeslty like reading other people's blogs on this site.
    Looks like my HP Elitebook 840 g1 is going back to Windows 11 after having so many problems with Linux. I guess I really can't get used to it personally. But don't worry, PeppermintOS is on two other PCs of mine (that I don't use much)

    Nahh this is just standard Windows 11 Home. Last time I tried to do a Tiny11 fork using that, I used one that had this weird time limit to that
    My phone lost the ability to wipe the cache partition. Can I get some suggestions on alternative phones to the S24 Ultra?

    Samsung deserves a place on the no-buy list.
    * Killing bootloader unlock worldwide <-- (repeating fake news in this regard),
    * Imposing questionable rules for third-party repair
    * Getting rid of testpoint based rescue methods (Emergency USB Booting).
    * Now baseless restrictions in standard recovery

    You mentioned using DeX if I remember correctly. Some screenshots look impressive. Desktop mode as part of standard Android is in eternal "planned", "alpha" and "developer options only" state. If Desktop mode worked I would be using GrapheneOS as my main OS for online activities.

    KleinesSinchen I don't understand why everything has always have to be a security measure when in reality, it's limiting our abillity to customize Android to our liking. For 23 years, Android was the better alternative to iOS for developers, and the push to basically making it Apple is unnessasary. I don't even use DeX anymore cause I find it impractical.
    Wow, taking off animations makes scrcpy much faster on the long run. I don't understand why on some cables it's borderline unusable sometimes, but without animations it makes it a lot better to control and whatnot.

    if there's one streaming application that I'm glad about having on Linux it would have to be this one since that's one that I wished from my times using Windows to have on my eventual Linux machine.

    Even though nobody is using it much, the Linux Mint HP Elitebook 840 g1 still holds up with it being on there but...

    for some reason in the BIOS,it's adding so many entries to various Linux Distros that I added into the system with no way to take them down and whatnot. I know this PCs old but damn. Also, I appreciate the Linux community for having Wii/PS3 Bluetooth Functionality come out of the box
