Unironically: child safe websites should be under a separate DNS provider from your ISP, provided via a separate ISP router or modem. Setup a separate national level routing.
Seriously. Kids get curated internet only, adults get the firehose.
The idea of porn credits and voluntarily giving the government a list of everything you look at is utter insanity.
Dunno if it still happens, but getting a lobbies to remain invite only was something of a black magic trick for a while there. Can confirm this happened though.
True. But by the same token, if you attain a similarly high level of knowledge about Windows, you can do much of the same stuff. Including debloating it.
I mainly say this because I would love nothing more than swapping my relatives machines to Linux, but when something breaks it can be BAD and they are missing that basic background thst 3+ decades on Windows has earned them.
A vee emm you say?
Can I get that on the app store?
…
You gotta set the bar far, far lower. Hell being able to set up a VM easoly in a Windows home license machine is still something relatively recent, without using specialized software.
If Linux only appeals to tinkers then it will see about as much market share as 80s cars as well, and peak at single digits.
If you are someone technically inclined, I totally agree with you. But I think the newer distros in the past few years that are basically good to go after install, and feature application stores linked to reputable repos, etc, are the way forward. This takes a lot of the confusion and, frankly, fear out of attempting to use Linux for your average user.
When the initial player base numbers are fucking unsustainable, this is a necessary and expected correction.
Panicked headline aside, there are still tens of thousands of players online at any given time and the game is doing extremely well at for not having had a proper expansion or new faction, and just the steady drip feed of new gear and equipment.
I long for third spaces.
The mall is an ouroboros that demands I spend. But if it had a park combined with it, if it was just a series of semi-connected strip malls around a central or spread out park/walking path I’d be there constantly.
The mall just isn’t a enjoyable place to hang out unless you truly have no other choice, and even teenagers who don’t are opting to hang online because it’s less expensive and doesn’t require transit.
There’s a reason welding is not a common skill.
If you’re trying to proliferate welding, maybe this is a bad approach?
According to Qualcomm it would. It’s extremely Early days in this, but the claims from MS and Qualcomm indicate ARM x86 emulation being quite good, faster in some cases. MS is throwing a lot of weight behind their “Prism” x86 to ARM instruction mapper/translator. And without adding much in the way of power draw.
I’m not gonna pretend you can believe marketing bullshit, but there is definitely at least some real development happening here. And if you paired the newest Qualcomm chips with a chip like the Tegra, you could have some amazingly battery life.
So it’s no guarentee, but it’s a huge development happening that at the very is going to shake things up even if it doesn’t make a direct impact in the end.
I think people are discounting the recent Qualcomm developments too much here. Their pairing of their new Snapdragon Elite chip with Windows, but also targeting high level desktop performance means it is likely to be a very viable contender for any future handheld, especially if paired with a Radeon mobile or Tegra.
You. You are the reason they need to point it out.
Just move on. You think no one cares, but I care infinitely less about your comment on it than I do learning the background of an elected official, especially given the situation in Gaza.
I honestly could give a shit. You think games don’t report telematics internally back to devs? Who share them with publishers anyways?
Valve has so much telematicd data on you it’s insane. Same with other companies. Sony just isn’t good at burying the lead.
At the end of the day it’s the same as a GOG Account, an Epic Login, or a Ubisoft Account. They all exist and we lost this fight when we allowed giant super publishers to merge and control distribution, and when no alternative to steam has ever got off the ground.
Say what you will about Epic, but it is by f as R the closest anything is to breaking Valve’s iron grip, and it’s still a distant second place also ran.
So yea, Sony requires a login. I wish they didn’t, but literally everything does besides GOG. They all use Denuvo and DRM and lock the exe to the client. Sony doing it to run their leaderboards at least makes some sense.
There are still many difficulties.
This makes playing those ROMs are various platforms and architectures fwr more viable an option, and using far less power and hardware than emulation would require.
You should look up what the word “fraud” means in a legal context.
You would have an incredibly, overwhelmingly difficult tike attempting to prove that in court at this moment.
Fraud requires intentional deception and requires you to have lost something. This is a proactive action to prevent misunderstanding and from you purchasing something that won’t work, and refunds your purchase. The loss, and the intent, are both missing.
This is categorically not fraud.
Go on?
I attempted to sell you a car in the UK. I realize I’m unable to and issue a refund.
Fraud exists where?
The whole fucking point of the gamepass model is that you subscribe and provide them with a steady income stream between game releases. No big “boom” when a title drops, but also no “bust” when there are no releases.
The fact that MS has blinked and isn’t going to stay the course means that gamepass is unsustainable at present, and they don’t have the spine to triple down until it is.
I don’t want gamepass to succeed, but it’s a move thst only a company of MS’ size could even attempt. And it requires years and years of patience to pull off. But after the ActiBlizz buyout, investors lost patience and now the 10 year gamble is over.
If you’re banned on steam for shitting up the game, they don’t want you making a new account to shit it up on PSN. And vice versa. Currently you can get banned in game on steam and just pack up and move to PSN.
It means to be an incessant troll you would have to limit your account spam to the PSN side, which requires 2 factor, or make more steam accounts as well.
So halving the troll problem for Arrowhead by not having them chase two separate account systems.
It is likely also so that matchmaking and player counts on the PSN side can be accurate. If there are 300k people playing, but the PSN only reports half of that, it makes the game population seem much smaller for new users.
Honestly i treat it like Origin or EPIC. I don’t love having to have it, but the benefits out weight the demerits, and I have the account anyways.
It’s an older Kickstart Ed title, but has good bones. It’s just got some rough edges.
I read about this, and it’s the ads. Full wall animated ads.
I also instantly predicted this obvious outcome. And hope it happens go any place that installs them. Fuck billboards invading every inch of our lives.
Elon sweats in Vegas Tesla Loop
For real, it was that stupid. Reinvented the fucking trolly.
So you use SharePoint as well? Hahaha
