Meh. Forces you to have the game on GOG. It’s blocking mods behind a platform and account paywall, just like Steam Workshop

Isn’t this exactly like GOG Mods?

It’s not every other improvements, it’s basic features requested for years.

Dumb things like being able to edit your reviews or delete them without mailing the support. Having the ability to download old versions of offline installers instead of being forced to use their app…

It’s pretty obvious that I meant that this addition is welcome, but I critize their priorities.

Even GOG Galaxy for Linux. Forgot this still wasn’t added.

But as long as you pay for green energy none of that money will go towards supporting non-green infrastructure. So it should incentivise the energy companies to invest more into green ones.

I believe people getting non-green energy will just get less green energy, at least that’s how I would imagine it if there was already enough green energy for the ones who demand it. Instead of making more green energy, they’ll just send less green energy to the people that aren’t paying for green energy. If your country doesn’t produce a lot of it, then yea it’ll certainly incentivise the production of it, but I feel like keeping green energy only for premium payers, without developping infrastructure is more worth it to them.

The components health section is probably nearly void, it seems like the lifespan of a CPU isn’t impacted if it doesn’t overheat. You’re probably right on that, I’m not a hardware expert though.

Mining seems not worth it imo, based on my experience, but someone told me otherwise 🤷

It is most certainly bad for the environment. Even if you use green energy, the infrastructure used to deliver the energy isn’t green when initially created and has a limited lifespan. Also, you probably remove green energy from people that didn’t care at the same time, so it ends up having a negative impact. If the green energy production % doesn’t change, then someone uses more non-green energy if you start using green.

You know that both of your statements are false in a specific way

I guess good thing, but what about improving GOG initially? There are many things to add and improve

You forgot the secret ingredient: drugs

(Nah please don’t unless you’re with people you know and trust)

No mobile payments, a lot of apps have integrity check which means I can’t really use them, no way to reset the unique device ID sent to apps so they can track you (why am I even using Graphene 🙄?), slow device, annoying to set up things like carplay’s android thingy…

Mobile payments, better UI, all apps working without Google play services… those are the needed things, but they won’t happen anytime soon

And them being in the USA as well

🤯

I believe if it was worth it to mine, everyone would do it until it is not anymore, especially in countries where electricity is extra cheap

After testing on my machine, I ended up losing more than 10x the amount I paid in electricity in France. I’m not sure it’ll be better elsewhere. This was at 0.20€/kWh

20€ worth of XMR will still be more than 20€ worth of electricity. It ends up the same.

When USA is closer to the African/middle east countries they hate than Europe

With so many pro-far left here it’s pretty logical we thought you were serious

Additional notes:

The initial crypto should be a relatively famous one with low transaction fees so you don’t lose a lot in the process. The two I wrote are nice.

For swapping, the higher the amount, the lower the fee % will be. Always try trading over $20 to minimize fees.

This is the easiest way.

• Use a centralized exchange (like Kraken, Binance…)
• Buy LTC, BCH, anything you want
• withdraw that
• Swap (exchange) those through a swap service, from the crypto you bought, to XMR.
  • https://trocador.app/ is an exchange aggregator that’s privacy friendly and Monero friendly if you want. They don’t take any cut and you can get better margins this way.
• Optional but I recommend it: churn your crypto by sending all of it to yourself multiple times, waiting a few days between each churn. Easier to do with Feather Wallet on desktop as it has coin control. This minimizes the links to your identity: Monero shines through multiple transactions, but tx to tx can statistically be liked. The more you do, the blurrier it gets.
  • On Feather Wallet (which is open source), there’s a “coins” tab where you can see each unit of crypto you have, and can “sweep output” to “yourself (churn)” easily.
• Spend your XMR, have fun :)

Can’t say about the second like, but reto is quite known and trusted

I disagree with the first part, but apart from that, yea retoswap is reputable
