The problem with this is that Alphabet already collects and sells your usage data. When you use any of Alphabet’s “free services” you are the product. What they’re doing is double dipping. Not only that, but they’re getting very intrusive with the ads.
I can remember a time not long ago when the only ads on the platform were in the form of banner ads placed in the bottom of the video and off to the side next to recommended. There were no ads in the player. If they went back to that, I would not mind disabling my ad blocker.
I think shifting baselines is a real issue with car bloat. It should be going the other way where a Focus is seen as a mid-size and the like of the Fiesta a compact rather then sub-compact.
Quote from the article: “The inclusion of intrusive DRM softwares [sic] like Denuvo is a choice that yields an unfair punishment on the consumer,” Running With Scissors says. “Respect the consumer, make a game they want to play, and you will never feel the need to fight piracy.

I’ve seen Denuvo combined with the always online requirement with the latest Far Cry 6 on steam. The always online requirement makes a cracked version worth it in my use case.
Multi-threading should just really be called “intelligent scheduling.” It’s making more efficient use of a CPU core by scheduling multiple different lines of code to run on a core at the same time. Some bits of code take longer to run then others and don’t make full use of the CPU during the time they run, so the CPU will schedule another thread/code snippet to run in that gap of downtime.
I’m certain someone will correct me and add clarity to this explanation, of course.
