I don’t really understand how people make the review threads, but we’re sitting at a 77 on OpenCritic right now. Many were worried about game performance after the recommended specs were released, but it looks like it’s even worse than we expected. It sounds like the game is mostly a solid release except for the...

Yes, with a limited set of federations you can have the user make that choice beforehand. But sometimes the options are changing all the time and/or you don’t want to announce all the services you’re federating with, or it wouldn’t make sense anyway.
No offense, but nothing you wrote here makes any sense. You’re right (if I’m ‘translating’ this correctly), but you’re mix-and-matching various concepts here.
10 years ago, I’d have put my ability to visualise at 0 out of 10. Practice and occasional halucinogen use has got me to 2 out of 10. It causes no end of problems in day to day life, so I’m interested to hear if anyone has tips or just experiences to share so it doesn’t feel such a lonely frustrating issue....
Wait. So when you look in a mirror it’s a surprise every time? Im also unable to draw myself, but that’s more of a drawingskill issue than anything else I guess…
Not really impressed with how the free AdGuard works for me, I’m interested in either free or paid app suggestions and I’d like to hear experiences from people who use them. Thank you!
A while back he (Musk) posted that individual blocklists are relatively expensive (cpu wise) to run, which is true. This has been getting much worse with the whole blue check debacle. People are blocking those idiots en masse. I’m fairly sure this is just a cost saving measure.
Yup, I second NextDNS. It works perfectly, and the free tier is enough for my mobile, wife’s mobile and my desktop. AdGuard is included, as are dozens of other (selectable) lists.
Yeah, I’d be a bit more careful about making statements on physics education. The setup in itself is breaking physics itself. Arguing about what would happen is like saying “if we ignore the rules, what would happen according to the rules?”. It’s theoretical either way and there’s no correct answer.
This is very troubling, and I’m not even sure where to start. I recently received an email message from my ISP which alerted me to an incoming update. I didn’t worry too much since this is obviously not the first update they’ve ever pushed through....
In that case you totally don’t. But many ISPs only allow their own routers/modems or require some very specific abilities from 3rd-party routers usually only found on more high end (expensive) models. So sometimes the last resort is double NATing (which is fine for most users).
At least two brands have said they will suspend advertising on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, after their ads and those of other companies were run on an account promoting fascism. The issue came less than a week after X CEO Linda Yaccarino publicly affirmed the company’s commitment to brand safety for advertisers.
My wife is pregnant. In her last month now. The discomfort and sacrifices woman go through… I’ve been joking that if it were men being the ones going through pregnancy, we would’ve perfected incubating the fetus in a machine or something decades ago. Also, 12 months of paid paternity leave, at the minimum. I’m not sure I’m joking…
Like, I’m on a plane. I don’t want to watch Toy Story when I can do that at home, I want to see what the pilots see. And that way every seat has technically a window to look out of.
BUT YOU’RE FLYING! You are sitting in a chair. In the air!!! You’re like a Greek god right now… YOU ARE FLYING!!
I swear the Wright brothers would kick us all in the cunt right now if they knew… “Hey Orville, they’re gonna make us wait on the runway a bit.” “O shit, it hardly seems worth it then.”
