dedent() can help with that.

I would expect any random headset to plug into the headset and microphone ports and Just Work, and ditto for USB

For the most part these days, they do. But OP asked about wireless.

or Bluetooth headsets that report themselves as the appropriate device class.

The problem with Bluetooth is not the operating system or drivers, but Bluetooth itself. The spec famously lacks provisions for good quality stereo output with good quality input at the same time. This is why many wireless headsets use a (non-Bluetooth) dongle.

Ha... That is hilarious, and very much like Bethesda. (See also: the bee problem in Skyrim.)

I'm playing a lore bard with thief skills. I started with Shadowheart, Gale, and Lae'zel, but Karlach made me smile so much that I swapped her in as our tank.

We've been a pretty effective party through the first two acts on the balanced difficulty setting. Locks, traps, and persuasion checks are a breeze. Three fights between long rests is typical, and we barely touch consumables.

I might spend more time optimizing builds on my second play-through, which I expect will be in tactician mode.

You’re just giving the same companies even more money when you buy their much more expensive “dumb” digital signage products.

No, I am not.

(And even if I was, it wouldn't boost the sales numbers of spyware products, encouraging more of the same.)

Nobody’s been able to show me

If you don't want to believe it's a problem, I don't expect anyone wants to waste their time trying to change your mind.

(Jay did report seeing examples in the wild, though.)

This particular issue is important enough that I'm glad they did it. We needed somebody to do it, and if that means a tiny bit of funding was diverted from browser work, I think it was more than worth it.

(Also, the Mozilla Foundation is not the same as the Mozilla Corporation.)

You're assuming that the word federation means central governance over the component parts. It doesn't. That's just an element that happens to be present in well-known political federations, which are not the only kind.

OP clearly specified "When making posts on Lemmy/Kbin". That is the context for this conversation.

I'm with you in principle. But realistically, scalper-driven scarcity is a big problem in the big three TLDs, and nearly all the new generic TLDs have at least one of price, governance, or length problems that make them unappealing. Under the circumstances, I can't exactly fault people for choosing regional TLDs.

GE-Proton (proton-ge-custom on github) depends on and is built for use only in Steam, alongside Valve's official Proton releases. When installed, it shows up in Steam's "compatibility tool" list.

Wine-GE-Proton (wine-ge-custom on github) is a custom version of Wine with some hand-picked patches from Proton's source code, built to run without Steam, either standalone or with game launchers like Lutris.

Yes, GloriousEggroll is terrible at naming. But he's doing a good job with functionality, so getting used to his confusing names is worthwhile if you have a need for this stuff. :)

There's a big filterable list here: https://staticgen.com/

I've been using Pelican for a few years. It's reasonably lightweight and very flexible, although the configuration could be prettier.

It's possible that this is not about collecting money for third party app use, but instead about forcing people to use Reddit's apps (both mobile and web), which are designed for data extraction and tracking.
