Well it's happening again. Bought a game years ago on Epic - Snowrunner. Last week the AWS outage stopped me from playing my save because the game/store didn't think I had the DLC's I bought. Then I couldn't log in and play it at all. Today, another Epic fail with login issues.

It's a singleplayer (with a multiplayer co-op option) game. There's no reason at all for requiring an online connection unless you want the multiplayer function. But now I have to wait until they fix their server issues. And the next time something goes wrong with something else on the internet, I'll have the same problem. Or if my internet connection goes down.

I haven't pirated a game in decades, since I was young and broke. Now I'm thinking about getting back in the groove. Good work Epic store for actually encouraging pirating. It's going to be hard to resist getting the DLC I don't already own, given the amount of effort I'm about to go through just to play the game I paid for.

Is it possible to reinstall Linux (or distro hop) without losing my Dropbox install? Could I move the Dropbox install to my home folder so it survives the OS install?

The International Criminal Court (ICC) will switch its internal work environment away from Microsoft Office to Open Desk, a European open source alternative, the institution confirmed to Euractiv.

German newspaper Handelsblatt first reported on the plans. The switch comes amid rising concerns about public bodies being reliant on US tech companies to run their services, which have stepped up sharply since the start of US President Donald Trump’s second administration.

For the ICC, such concerns are not abstract: Trump has repeatedly lashed out at the court and slapped sanctions on its chief prosecutor, Karim Khan.

Tried to register a Loudly account using my email from Tutamail, but only got "invalid email".

Sent an email asking what was wrong, this was their reply (guess they only accept US emails. And here I thought Loudly was European) :
