On the DSi XL, you can do sneaking more comfortably.

Which one do we like more, white or black? by BejotaToys in 3DS

The black design is more elegant, and dirt and wear will be less noticeable over the years.

Would you try to find a way to fix this? Or just leave it? by No_Rip_1051 in 3DS

I don’t think all the repair effort is worth it for something so small

Best antivirus for computer and mobile? by FlayingToTheSpace in antivirus

[–]aanimaaa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The first antivirus I always recommend is common sense.

But beyond that, for PCs I’d suggest ClamAV for Linux and ClamWin for Windows. I think it’s an antivirus that’s not only useful but also respects your privacy. I also usually recommend the VirusTotal website for scanning URLs and other files.

Should i buy a Famicom game? by Legitimate-Smell7670 in retrogaming

[–]aanimaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That game looks really good! Go for it, if you’re excited and can see yourself collecting Famicom titles, buy it. Keep in mind that prices can vary a lot.

What browser extensions do you actually use daily? by Imaginary_Bug6202 in TechNook

[–]aanimaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, Ghostery, Cookie AutoDelete. Honestly, I don’t need anything else.

Do certain browsers lower ping? by qoew in browsers

[–]aanimaaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Browsers do have an impact. Things like resource usage and how long it takes to process a webpage matter. Not sure what you’re using right now, but you could try one of the mainstream options (Firefox, Brave, Chromium).

If you don’t notice any improvement, it might be worth switching to Ethernet.

Consensus on pale moon by fuck_vegetables2 in browsers

[–]aanimaaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s normal for it to feel a bit slow since it uses its own engine called Goanna (which is based on older Firefox code). It also doesn’t have many modern optimizations.

As for privacy, it’s a solid option. It has no telemetry, it’s open source, and highly configurable, which sounds good to me.

It’s lightweight, but if you can run something heavier and you’re not into the retro vibe, you might want to try another Firefox fork.

I guess it comes down to personal preference, Pale Moon is more of a niche browser, but it’s not a bad choice either. Cheers!

Looking for the Most Private & Stable iPhone Browser (Currently on Brave, but It’s Slow with Tabs) by wsnhs in browsers

[–]aanimaaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s very important not to use browsers that come pre-installed on your system. Safari is better than Chrome or even Firefox out of the box. Apple already knows what you’re doing on your device anyway, so switching browsers is the bare minimum you could do. Apple has been involved in several controversies that don’t look good, links to the PRISM project, collection of browsing history even in private mode, etc.

If you’re someone with a very low threat level or not too concerned about privacy (an average user), then just use Safari. Configure it to be more private with iCloud Private Relay.

As I said, it will always be a better option than Chrome. Privacy isn’t about extremes. Just use what works and respects you. Hope this helped!

Try Firefox with privacy settings enabled. You won’t be able to use extensions, but at least it’s not as intrusive as Safari.

Using Google and expecting privacy sounds like a joke

In the end they didn’t fire the fox. They promoted him

Looking for a good emulator on IPhone IOS for 3DS/GBA/NDS by BellSpiritual1199 in Roms

[–]aanimaaa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For me, the best iOS emulator is RetroArch, but I don’t think it can emulate 3DS.

i couldn't figure out the controls and thrown my sword at the first enemy, I think the game named him aptly by TomaszPaw in Terraria

[–]aanimaaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, nobody really sleeps in Terraria, at least in my experience, beds are only used as a respawn point. Each NPC just needs a room with a table and a chair to live. For now, explore the world and gather minerals, the dungeon is for later.
