Do a look-through of that XML folder as well. Images could be base64 encoded in those XML files. I remember several instances where XML was used as a template “language” for old style GUIs. (When XML and HTML diverged, a lot of that kind of thing was happening.)

There are some kind of instructions in this video that go through a logo change process. I don’t know if this helps, but I tried: https://youtu.be/QrobPTgu7C0

Also, does it use some kind of database? The images seem like they would be small enough to jam into a blob and just store alongside regular inventory information. If there is a database, it’s probably third-party. If it’s third-party, I would see if it had its own installer packaged inside of the application installer itself. (A third party database would likely be outside of the main app folder.)

Just dumping random thoughts.

That’ll be interesting when Nintendo just turns around and sues YouTube for allowing videos of emulators on its platform or for every time a creator even mentions the name Nintendo in an unapproved context.

Observe while participating is what I meant. The intent is to give a person a heads up that cliques still exist on Lemmy and it may take a bit to understand them. In my case, I found the first instance I wouldn’t participate on when I was classified as a fascist baby killer for some reason. (Some instances hadn’t been mostly defederated back then.)

I would tweak that a hair and tell people just to make an account somewhere and observe for a bit. Lemmy can have some very distinct groups that reside on very specific instances. Or not. It’s a “pick your adventure” kind of scenario, IMHO.

It took about six months or so for me to settle into .ca after bouncing around a bit. It’s not really a pain to switch instances, but I personally like my chat history in one spot and I like the concept of a ‘home instance’.

Depending on your client and your settings, your feed could have a bias that leans in the direction of the posts on your home instance, so that is something of note. Not saying that is bad or good, it just is what it is.

Oh, was I using the correct lingo for hundred year old methane powered shit gushers? I had no idea. Lol!

use spent oil reservoirs

Ok, that lead to some giggles thinking about some company drilling in the future thinking they were about to hit a strangely untapped oil field.

Add a hundred years of methane pressure build up and that could be really interesting gusher.

The fan is good, but the orientation seems like it would struggle pushing air between the drives. Maybe a push-pull setup with a second fan?

My general attitude is similar to yours. Let OP figure out that the reporting and blocking is basically just creating more noise that has to gets filtered out and bot supply is basically infinite.

“It’s a learning experience.”

Good luck with that, I suppose. Botnets can have thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of infected hosts that will endlessly scan everything on the interwebs. Many of those infected hosts are behind NAT’s and your abuse form would be the equivalent of reporting an entire region for a single scan.

But hey! Change the world, amirite?

That comment is pure gold and I am archiving it for future use.

I looked into that and the only question I really have is how geographically distributed the samples were. Other than that, It was an oversampled study, so <50% of the people were the control, of sorts. I don’t fully understand how the sampling worked, but there is a substantial chart at the bottom of the study that shows the full distribution of responses. Even with under 1000 people, it seems legit.

There is a place for that. It’s called 4chan.

In this study, we conducted a survey (n = 742) including a representative U.S. sample and an oversample of gender minorities, racial minorities, and disabled individuals to examine how demographic factors shape AI attitudes.

I have been using 6ghz for about a year or so now and I found it to be quite fast. MLO can be super weird sometimes and seems to get confused, but it works. (It’s probably just a driver I haven’t updated.)

There seems to hundreds of studies on that and there seems to be a fairly uniform “Yes” and “More than you would guess”, etc.

Here is one: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.3233/ADR-220062

B is for Buy n Large (and billionaire) your very best friend.

This has been a thing for years now. While I am sure it might annoy some pirates, it’s likely aimed at easily executed malware.

I deal with spam filtering on a daily basis and about 90% of it originates from Gmail. Most of that is just fishing/fraud. It would really suck if my users could easily detonate malware attachments, so this Gmail policy is a good thing for me.

I think you nailed it. For me personally, if I move to PieFed, it’s not because I want to “hurt” the devs, it’s because I really don’t want to be part of what they stand for.

Banned from /r/Movies for calling out Tom Cruise as a scientologist piece of shit and encouraging people to boycott his movies. It was on a Mission Impossible circle-jerk post, so it likely did ruffle some feathers.

(I got a 3 day ban for something dumber, but I consider the /r/Movies ban more brag worthy.)
