ChickenThoughts is one of the things I miss from Reddit :(

Wow that guy was kinda a dick
It's really hard to take calls to action like this seriously, when they unironically talk like this:
You cannot pass this invasive “browser check” without enabling JavaScript. This is a waste of five(or more) seconds of your valuable life.
Most of the other points are either grasping, misleading, or make the classic FOSS-centric assumption that we live in a fantasy land where all hosting is free and companies don't need to exist.
I'm not out here trying to say Cloudflare is vital to society, but come on, these arguments are toothless.
This was fixed already, but a new release of Lutris has not been published with the fix included. The exact line in your screenshot was specifically removed in this commit:

Granted. The house fire subsides and there is no structural damage.
However, the house is now empty. Every belonging or piece of furniture has mysteriously disappeared.
You could only save one thing. You chose your house.
I really thought this was satire until your comment.
Who thought this was a good idea to publish...
Moon Channel, a lawyer who dives into some of the legal topics surrounding the gaming industry, most of them Nintendo related. Really well researched information about emulation legality, modding, even copyright infringement Nintendo themselves committed in the 90's (in the Mother 3 video), all sorts of stuff.
He also has a few other things, like a REALLY LONG video on JRPGs, or commentary on MMOs.
Does the missing comment show up in the Lemmy web UI?
I think this just happens when a comment gets deleted. Sync can show the child comments, but the Lemmy UI just hides the entire thread.
I've seen people have similar issues on my issue tracker. Turns out it was caused by Cloudflare's JS minimization or rocket-loader being enabled. Something changed in 0.18.3 that made it incompatible with those Cloudflare features. If you use the Cloudflare proxy to serve your site, you will need to turn those off.
Aw, thanks! :D
No. It's very likely. Not every company is run like a FAANG company with everything under a microscope. At your average company, it's extremely common for individual teams to just have their own cloud service accounts for internal team use, not as tightly controlled as a company's production cloud services account. I'd argue most of them are very loosely managed by a single person, letting said person do pretty much whatever they want.
And if those accounts have thousands of dollars in AWS credit or something, this could run under the radar for up to 6 months uninterrupted, depending on when the credits expire. Most credits are handed out for free from the cloud service provider with no cost auditing or anything of the like.
I'm in a position where I could do this myself at work with very low risk of getting caught. I just have no interest in doing so, and I'd rather not be fired if I did get caught. But it's definitely possible.
I've been using Lawnchair for a while, but development is so slow, and they are so consistently behind Android updates, that I think I've given up on custom launchers and will just use the stock AOSP launcher.
It is disappointing, but Google has made it so you don't get the fancy recents carousel unless you use the stock launcher. Lawnchair does support that by pretending to be the stock launcher, but Lawnchair only supports up to Android 12, and Android 14 is about to come out. There hasn't been a hint of Lawnchair even starting development of Android 13 compatibility, so I'm not confident they'll be able to keep up with 14 and beyond.
