The ideal is “plays fine at lowest graphics settings on old hardware” while having “high graphics settings” that look fantastic but requires too-of-the-line hardware to play reasonably.

Generally this is almost impossible to achieve.

That’s fair. App Store as the GUI equivalent of a package manager makes sense.

You need a browser to install a packages manager on Windows or Mac.

I used to do that but using eating out as an excuse to walk ends with me spending a lot more money on eating out than I should.

I once messed up something I was writing by hand and instinctually wanted to press ctrl+z

I had a relative visiting the US for the first time who was really excited to try turkey meat.

Lemmy feels a lot less mature than Reddit, for what that’s worth.

This is that “enlightened centrism” false equivalence.

I honestly can’t believe that in good faith you can compare Biden and Trump as equals.

One is a president whos platform is making minimal change.

The other is a president whos platform is to tear down democracy and human rights.

If you honestly can look at these two and say they are equal than I have to conclude you are at least indifferent to maintaining democracy and human rights.

I know the “counter argument” is about Biden and Israel/Gaza, but the thing is, that’s not really up for debate because I don’t believe there’s any chance Trump would be better about Gaza.

There are 2 options:

• death in Gaza and status quo in the US
• death in Gaza and loss of human rights and possibly our democracy in the US

The assumption is OP isn’t a Trump supporter.

And they aren’t going to come close to winning so if you really don’t like facism it’s probably best to vote for the only non-fascist candidate who has a chance of winning.

• legal immigration ban (thankfully got overturned)
• overturning Roe v Wade, leading to several abortion bans, leading to a serious decline in healthcare for pregnant women in general in affected states
• attempted coup, and stated plans to try again

It’s not “scare tactics” when it actually happens.

My grandpa refuses to get a cell phone. Not even one that makes only calls. He regularly drives across the country, relying on libraries to print out maps and send emails to stay in contact with family.

Using ProtonVPN probably isn’t doing what you want it to do, since the port they will give you is random, but for your website you will want ports 80 and 443 exposed.

CloudFlare will hide your IP will properly forwarding traffic (and other benefits, like caching images on their CDN, if you want them). Also their free tier is more than enough for something like this.

iOS natively supports JIT (by which we mean writable and executable memory) but Apple locks it down to only two use cases:

1. The JavaScript engine in Safari
2. Support for running a debugger

AltStore launches a debugger and connects it to your phone. Even though it’s not actually doing anything with a debugger, that’s enough to convince iOS to let your app use memory that’s both writable and executable (the key feature needed for JIT).

Without JIT you need to either resort to a slower form of emulation or do something creative.
