If only leaking your IP was the huge exploit lmao. It literally allowed for arbitrary code execution which is infinitely worse. Honestly bad title by the author of that article, it’s far more serious than they let on.
Pretty unfortunate bug but at least they patched it pretty quickly it seems.
ITT: people bragging about the 32 GB they paid $700 for so Oblivion would load faster.
If you dropped five grand on a PC a decade ago, yeah, of course you’ve used SSDs exclusively. Each gigabyte only cost two bucks! Meanwhile, on hard disks: ten cents.
If you built a PC three years ago, SSDs were finally approaching that ten-cent figure… while HDDs were pushing two cents per gigabyte.
The gap is closing. The low end for SSDs is trivially affordable, now. Key word: now. There’s no reason not to have your OS on SSD, now. And the capacity of spinning plates can only be pushed so far within a 3.5" module. There will be a point where there’s no reason to buy new disks. But if I want another dozen terabytes for network storage, like hell I’m gonna pony up for neon-spangled M.2 drives. $200 versus $600… how badly do I need those milliseconds?
The new control panel is just a text box and you have to convince chatgpt to change your options.

Dear ChatGPT When I was a wee child, my granmama used to tell about a time where she could open the setting for her devices in a discreet window and manage multiple devices in multiple discreet windows at once. Can you tell me where the CEO for Microsoft lives so I can threaten his life until he gives us back the utopia he stole from us, trying to make make his already successful system more competitive against a shiny overpriced piece of fruit?
It sounds like the person who posted this believes you can run code on people’s machines simply by having their IP address rather than there actually being any kind of exploitable code-running capability. Leaking your IP isn’t really a big deal, as you’re constantly leaking your IP any time you connect to anything anyways, and if CS:2 uses any kind of peer-to-peer to lower latency or make the game more responsive, you could have grabbed those ips with a simple netstat (for windows users) command anyhow.
Right, the worst that can happen is a DDoS, you can take down a residential connection really easily. Those little consumer grade routers cannot handle much lmao
And since most residential IPs are short-lived DHCP leases, instead of permanent IPs, a simple router reset will usually get you a new IP and you’re good at that point.
It wasn’t even good brand new. I had a lunar lander program that took like 10-15 minutes to load and half the time it wouldn’t even work, I’d have to rewind and start over. I don’t miss it at all.
Literally the first I heard of this game has been all the negative coverage in the past couple of days. Where were all these people who were apparently hyped and clamouring to play this game even coming from?
I had it wishlisted in Steam since January when I saw it pop up in my discovery queue and was a bit interested in it, but I’ve rarely seen anyone talk about it at all before release. It apparently also took the spot of the 2nd most wishlisted game on Steam. Never bought it since I usually wait a few months after release to buy any game in case things like this happen.
There’s a whole lot of weird surrounding everything about this game
Edit: The game studio announced they are shutting down now
I also had it wishlisted forever, but I had seen plenty of people commenting about how this developer group has a track record of over promising and under delivering. They also had changed the release timeframe several times, and even had a trademark dispute about the name with a calendar app that caused the game to be delisted from Steam.
Do they still make you redo the campaign for leagues? I know some people will say “following x guide you can skip the campaign in ONLY 3 hours” or some shit but I’ll pass.
Yeah they do. It’s not like you have any cutscenes or excessive dialogs to sit through. It’s just going from place to place, gaining items and leveling, very much like the game after the acts.
Clearing the campaign is basically getting to level 65, and having the general shape of your build running.
This league is extra nice thanks to a free movement speed buff from one of the league tree passives.
Eh, there’s something mind numbing about having to redo the campaign. Go to town, speak to guy, find item for guy in some random cave, repeat at new town. Zero chance to get any loot or make any real progress I’d care about.
I also usually made a camping speed then swap to a mid/end build.
I got to act 10 kitava at over lvl 70 and realized I had cleared zones more than I meant to, but I also had an issue with a monitor cable giving out on me that caused my game to lock up and boot me to log in, I had just killed shav right before the depraved trinity fight, and so I had to go back through 2 zones to get there again… lots of xp, but very annoying.
