Maybe because it’s an unreleased game, so regardless of dislike for previous iterations you can’t really judge it.
Also there’s a difference between “I wish these games were good” and “I wish I liked these games”. Like no shit you’re going into a thread only interesting to people that like a series and say “the series sucks” completely unprompted, adding nothing of value. Of course you’ll get booed out of the room.
Does the steamdeck use NTFS? That would seem like a very strange decision, and it does explicitly mention steamdeck support.
4x8 feet is a whole lot less than 4x8m. That’s less than 1.5x3m if im remembering how long that cursed unit was correctly.
Still not a super small area to just have available, but probably more realistic for many people. I could probably arrange for that in my 40m^2 apartment
Yes, and the laws (so far) are exactly that: you input an age, and provide that age to applications that want it. No further identity verification or anything.
I don’t like the law for the precedent but as it stands it’s a harmless, potentially even useful feature.
I doubt it, honestly. It’d likely catch a lot of misinfo, yes, but it would likely also classify any new findings that run counter to previous assumptions as misinfo. LLMs can’t keep up to date. And they still have the same issue that whoever trains them gets to decide what is and isn’t misinfo, which starts being a problem when it’s an ubiquitous social media site.
That’s why I think the law is bad, but it doesn’t really apply to open source software. You see the actual limit crossed, you can still fork the version from before that.
Even the law itself, as it stands, is pretty alright. It’s effectively just a parental control system, the OS needs to provide the user age to applications, but that age is just whatever you type at install, without any verification. In general, if enough applications implement it, that’s not a bad system to help protect kids without invading anyones privacy. Of course, it can be circumvented by the kid installing the OS themselves, but that possibility is a feature, not a bug.
The problem there is the slippery slope though.
An IME.
I’m sure it’s possible to get it to work, but all I found the one time I tried to set it up was solutions that completely replace my existing keyboard, which is an issue because I use a custom layout. I tried making something work but only succeeded in somehow breaking everything (I forgot how I fixed it but I eventually did)
Arch with KDE btw if anyone happens to have the solution
Afaik it’s a displayport issue (because DP has the feature to detect if PC is on). I’ve had the issue on multiple monitors that it wouldn’t turn on the next time I booted the PC. After a lot of unsuccessful googling I finally found that the pc off-> monitor off -> pc on-> pc doesn’t see monitor -> monitor stays off apparently happens because of a capacitor not discharging properly, getting the monitor stuck in “pc off” state. Flipping the monitor power switch (or disconnecting the power cable) for 15-20 seconds has so far always fixed it for me.
But maybe there are other reasons too.
It has definitely gotten more expensive in the last 20 years. Döner used to be 3-4€, now it’s 7-10. Maybe more in some places. Afaik that’s a little above inflation, but it’s not crazy. And eating out in general has always been an expensive thing to do. From what I see online US prices are a lot worse, but I don’t know how they were 20 years ago.
It’s just p2w with extra steps. Pay to get stronger, or pay someone to play for you to get stronger. When games are designed to either make you play a lot or pay to get stuff to make you stronger, some people will gladly pay to either feel powerful, or just skip enough of the grind that they can focus on what’s fun.
I kind of get it, but at the point where I’d be spending hundreds or make someone play for me, I’d just look for a different game.
Just fyi you cannot really stop seeding completely, torrents work in tiny chunks and the moment you have one of them you can provide it to others.
It would need to have an atmosphere, so asteroids and most (all? Idk not an astronomer) moons are out.
Mars might be feasible at some point in the far future, but there’s still the lag problem of 3-20 minutes depending on time of year, so not very useful for anything user facing.
I should’ve clarified, with “this” i mean more the general sentiment about regulation of these lootboxes that I’ve seen in other contexts as well - other than the general topic I don’t really have an opinion on the lawsuit other than it seeming a bit ridicous to reimburse every customer in full.
There is one core difference to most other lootboxes, and it’s that the skins you get from them have a tangible real world value. It is actually, in every way, resemblant of a slot machine. Put in money, receive an amount of money that is less than what you put in on average (though I guess it’s never 0).
I’d have far more support for this if we didn’t have something matching this entirely for decades, completely legal for kids, with the only difference being that you get a physical item instead of something digital. Of course, I’m referring to trading cards. By all means regulate both, but regulating the digital version while not touching the physical one is insane.
I’ve always acted assuming this to be possible, but it used to require either an unhinged individual or some other reason for a very dedicated investigation. The barrier being potentially that much lower is scary, particularly for anyone with a bit of internet fame that would rather stay anonymous
Having steam installed both ways was the easiest way to be logged in to 2 steam accounts simultaneously.
But also why does it matter, the whole point of arch is that you can turn it into whatever the hell you want. If that means using discover as your main source for programs, then so be it.
Nitro is pretty popular. I know a lot of people including myself that cancelled it over the age verification bs.
They still clearly make money through ads and at the very least they scan messages for spam prevention, but also the fact that they are able to guess users age based on discord usage implies they’re profiling users. For which they probably also utilize message content.
I am nervous walking in the dark by myself. I simultaneously am relatively tall and will be perceived as male by anyone, so I also try to be wary of how I might make anyone else nervous.
The actual experience that most women have of smaller aggressions even in safer contexts probably also plays a role. I’m probably nervous walking alone at night because of a combination of being physically quite weak in spite of my looks, having experienced bullying throughout my childhood so “unpleasant random encounters” is a concept engraved into my brain, and because I’m affected by reading/hearing about any kind of assault happening to people walking alone.
Replace the bullying with “random men being assholes/threatening/worse” and most women have all 3 of those factors as well.
Someone… touched what some stranger is wearing to remove it… and it wasn’t an emergency???
What the fuck is wrong with people
I skimmed over the full text earlier, it gives reasons for why it was the gravest crime against humanity, and in general did seem like it meant the gravest that ever happened (that we know of at least).
It also mentions (and really is about) reparations which I suspect mightve influenced the abstains even more than the assertion that it was the gravest crime. Easier to weasel yourself out of doing anything/keep reparations low if you can say you never really voted yes on that.
