Projectivy Launcher stopping BBC iPlayer working. in c/androidtv@lemmy.world

Using this version of iPlayer got it working for me but I'm glad you found another way. Hopefully there are no further issues with it.

Has anyone else had this issue and is there a fix? Thanks.

'The Gentle Art of Tramping': Chapter 6 - The Companion (www.audible.co.uk)
 

This is literally my favourite chapter of any audiobook. If you love the outdoors, then I challenge you to find a more life affirming, heart warming call to spend a night under the stars.

Audiobooks like BBC's Roger Deakin Nature Collection, where both the narrator and their environment are recorded. (www.audible.co.uk)
 

I love listening to audiobooks about nature, the environment, climate, hiking etc. One of my favourites is 'Roger Deakin: A BBC Nature Collection', specifically 'Cigarette on the Waveney', 'The House' and 'The Garden', as they are narrated by Roger himself and the recordings capture the environment Roger is in not just his voice.

Are there other audiobooks recorded in this way that are worth listening to?

Thanks for your help.

New game from original creators of The Elder Scrolls has almost been backed on Kickstarter. in c/pcgaming@lemmy.ca

There are potential pitfalls with procedural generation, and Starfield definitely did it poorly, but as a fan of TES since Daggerfall I'm happy to get behind this. I'm sure it's possible to make proc-gen work well and I'm hopeful they'll manage it. Only time will tell I guess.

It just hit 100% 🥳

I can't say it's something I noticed, but I'm sure there will be options to adjust that. It also seems like the kind of game that will attract modders, just like all TES games.

This new project from some of the folks who worked on the first 3 Elder Scrolls games looks great. It looks certain to be backed as well as it's already at 99% on Kickstarter with a couple more weeks to go.

Moving away from Surfshark in c/vpn@lemmy.world
[–] AnAnonymousApe@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I too stream IPTV, which is what the VPNs primary use is. I'm glad Mullvad has worked well for, it's the one in thinking of sticking with. Fortunately, I'm able to try it for a month for the same price I'd normally pay, unlike their competitors. The only thing that's holding Mullvad back are their comparatively poor apps.

Moving away from Surfshark (lemmy.ml)
 

My Surfshark sub is almost up and I'm looking for my best option.

I'm so glad this little community has popped up, as looking for reviews on Reddit and elsewhere online is next to impossible, since every review is simply an ad in disguise.

I need a VPN primarily for streaming, so need it to be fast, and obviously security and privacy are key concerns too.

I've narrowed down my choices to Mullvad, Proton or sticking with Surfshark. Surfshark has been ok, but I assumed there must be better out there.

What are everyone's thoughts on the best performing service at the moment?

Thanks.

Does anyone know why a website may not work in LibreWolf? in c/librewolf@lemmy.ml
[–] AnAnonymousApe@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It does. I found a workaround. but it required changing settings. Librewolf is a little too secure for some websites to work correctly it seems.

I'm testing LibreWolf with a view to moving to it from Chrome, but I've noticed some websites don't work, for example: https://apps.sentinel-hub.com/eo-browser/

Does anyone know why this may be?

Thanks.

Has anyone used the Palit Jetstream RTX 4080? in c/pcmasterrace@lemmy.world
[–] AnAnonymousApe@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the feedback. My thinking was if by going with Palit or Zotac I can get stretch my budget to include a 4080 (if going AM5) or 4090 if going (Z790 or B660 + 13600K) etc, then it would be worth it, providing these basic cards would prove reliable. I just don't know their reputation as I'm unfamiliar with the brands, since this will be my first gaming PC.

Wow, just wow. The planet is breaking. Antarctic sea ice extent. There was actually a net *decrease* in ice extent day over day, and it's mid-winter there, peak freeze season. in c/technology@lemmy.world

Has anyone used the Palit Jetstream RTX 4080? (www.palit.com)
 

I see the Palit Jetstream RTX 4080 is the cheapest 4080, and I'm wondering if anyone has experience of it? Have they cut corners to make it this cheap, and is it still a solid card? Thanks.

Lemmy apps don't appear to work well with Lemmy.world (lemmy.ml)
 

When I started using Lemmy I joined Lemmy.world and downloaded several Lemmy apps, to find one I liked. After a short while, the apps seemingly became incompatible with Lemmy.world and refuse to display the communities I'd joined, or show any content on the main page of the app if I selected Subscribed rather than Local or All. I also couldn't see posts I knew to be there in some communities. Due to these issues I tried Lemmy.ml and fortunately it doesn't suffer from these problems when using the apps. What's going on? Is Lemmy.world broken?

Sorry if this is a stupid question.
