_imnothere··on AnduinOS
Seeing the screenshot on the site with WPS Office seem like a huge red flag to me, while the distro might not be affiliated with WPS Office, I'll just put the link here to raise attention that WPS Office DOES NOT worth anyone's trust.

_imnothere··on Clarifying recent headlines on gaming content
I hope game makers and maybe Steam could cooperate and roll out some kind of stablecoin-like stuff, Steam used to take Bitcoin for purchases, but we all know that the price fluctuates, but it wouldn't be the same if we all use stablecoin.

And with stablecoin adopted, who needs evil middleman like Visa and Mastercard anymore?

Except that it's real and happening, it does not magically become non-existence just because that you don't see it or refuse to understand.

_imnothere··on Nintendo Switch 2 account bans continue: warning after buying old copy of Bayo 3
While Nintendo does make good games such as Animal Crossing, their behavior makes me find it hard to support them with my money.

I bought first-gen Nintendo Switch with the faith that maybe I should support the devs for doing nice work, but after getting into the community, I found myself regretting giving my money to wrong hands, it may not be much, but money is money.

_imnothere··on Chrome's hidden X-Browser-Validation header reverse engineered
And why should anyone with a sane mind (except for Googlers) allow this kind of validation bs to exist?
_imnothere··on 7-Zip 25.00
Maybe it's just me but I got weird feelings seeing 7-Zip-zstd repo having more stars than it's upstream.

And who would trust Huawei over (insert any Linux distro devs/providers)?
_imnothere··on Game preservationists say Switch2 GameKey Cards are disheartening but inevitable
Things like this happen at least partially because of people who'd blindly pay greedy companies like Nintendo, let 'em grow and have their way with their dark patterns.

Uhh... only if you're not a CJK-language-user, C-Space is a common shortcut to switch between IME state.
_imnothere··on Trump's 'Crypto Reserve' Is Such Brazen Corruption
The slippery slope fallacy is a logical error where it is claimed that a relatively small first step will lead to a chain of events resulting in a significant and undesirable outcome, without sufficient evidence to support that claim. This type of argument often exaggerates potential consequences to instill fear or discourage a particular action.
_imnothere··on Does iOS have sideloading yet?

F-Droid is indeed a nice alternative for Play Store, but still, it's not perfect.

_imnothere··on DeepSeek-R1
One point is reliability, as others have mentioned. Another important point for me is censorship. Due to their political nature, the model seemed to be heavily censored on topics such as the CCP and Taiwan (R.O.C.).
_imnothere··on Nintendo announces the Switch 2 [video]
Absolute friendly reminder: this is a device from the company which they do C&D and abuse DMCA to community devs
_imnothere··on /e/OS: A complete "deGoogled" mobile ecosystem
More like, /e/OS: A fork of LineageOS but for-profit and uses "deGoogle" to lure people while offering their insecure Nextcloud instance as some alternatives of Google services

_imnothere··on Microsoft is introducing hidden APIs to VS Code only enabled for Copilot?
I suppose this is somewhat related to previous discussion[1], Microsoft has shown it's true color for multiple times, why even bother trusting them?

_imnothere··on Google must open Android for third-party stores, rules Epic judge
Apparently you don't know enough about Android, a perfect example of this is eSIM, you simply couldn't use eSIM without Google Play Services.
_imnothere··on Nintendo isn't just attacking emulators [video]
Either way your so called "piracy" helps preserve the games and keep them playable for much longer.
_imnothere··on Redot Engine: A Fork of the Godot Engine
Forking is probably the only way that efforts from previous devs of Godot doesn't get ruined for nothing. I hope either Redot or other fork would succeed.
