> MuseScore has patched the LibreScore App. The server will be down for the foreseeable future until I find a solution (possibly by the end of August). In the meantime you can download MIDI, MP3, and PDF using the browser extension.

Watch as they force the B.NET launcher to be used either way. It's just an extra hoop to go through for end users.

Looks like OW2 will run directly through Steam, without Battle.net required: https://twitter.com/Qwik/status/1681720303389667328

Exciting to see. Hope they pull through with this.

From the polygon article: https://www.polygon.com/23799285/blizzard-pc-games-steam-ove...

> Blizzard says that players on Steam will still need a Battle.net account connected to Overwatch 2 to play the game.

Connected account makes sense but that doesn't necessarily imply the launcher is required too.

True. The Ubisoft games on Steam launch the UPlay app in the background, so it'll probably be the same.

OW2 can already run without Battle.net running, but launching it through Battle.net takes care of auth for you. Presumably they will modify the Steam OW2 client to include the Steam lib and handle auth via Steam. I think it's actually reasonable to have hope that Steam can launch into OW2 without B.net.

I'm sure they will just add steam account linking to battle.net and treat it like any other platform.

As does EA Origin.

EA with it then you can't play PvZ Garden Warfare.

I hope not. Blizzard games run pretty well on Linux through Wine, but the launcher eventually didn't (classically, and perhaps on purpose), locking you out. I love launchers; they're such a cool value add!

Will you release the code for this?

I think so. Though it’s not nearly as sophisticated as you might think.

Are you interested in hosting an instance of it?

Having an equivalent of Nitter and Invidious would be amazing! I would love to host an instance of this API, you should publish your code!

Apps like RedReader will be impossible to modify and use in a libre manner without a replacement API implementation like this.

Something like https://teddit.net/ ?

Have you tried https://libreddit.de ? It can also be self-hosted

What will they do if many people do. Make the site inaccessible without signing in?

Even LinkedIn has not gone quite this far, usually the first page is viewable without logging in.

Getting PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR on Firefox, anyone else?

I was too.. I then disabled DNS over https (which was pointing at nextdns) and it started working. Not sure if that was coincidence or an actual fix

Classic. I think the latest multikeygen had 214 games? It's the largest one in the my collection. Fun fact, the older iterations of the keygen had different music![0]

You sure?

Would be nice to try, until I got banned yesterday for trying to connect two Colab runtimes together via SOCKS5. Turns out connecting to any proxy at all immediately suspends your Colab usage for "suspected abusive activity"!

appeal in product and we're usually pretty forgiving

Already did, but I accidentally did this once before and appealed and got unbanned some hours later. It's been almost 48 hours since now, so I don't think they're too forgiving for repeat offenses.

I have no dog in this fight - but your actions give the appearance of probing for weaknesses if you already knew this was not allowed from your prior accident.

Not really, I just wanted to bypass ratelimits from certain download sites so I figured that maybe rotating notebook sessions would work. Silly me for not checking TOS every other week :P

May I see it?

No.

I highly recommend that everyone should check out Chex Quest 3[0], created by Charles Jacobi[1], who is the lead artist for the original Chex Quest games. It's a compilation of the first two games with an additional third episode. One minor note is that it was developed to be run on more modern source ports (e.g. G/ZDoom), unlike the original game which ran a modified version of the Final Doom engine.[2]

Doom 1/2 has a very rich history and I love to see posts like these get attention.

If I'm not mistaken, if you gave Heroku a valid credit card, it would add a few hundred extra hours for your dynos.

that's correct, you could be have it on 247 with trick!
