In my experience, Microsoft is in weekly meetings with supervisory authorities, and they have a constant risk assessment of just ignoring EU regulations beyond GDPR going on. I've submitted a few GDPR requests that had an impact on Mic

You're missing the point. These are all games you likely play because your peer group does. Also, the experience on Wine/Proton isn't always the best. If you have high-end hardware, you probably want features that just don&#x

I hate to tell you, but attributing all feminist campaigning to some kind of misplaced compassion or lack of rationality is pretty misogynist. We got plenty of things that need and have benefitted from advocacy. Feminists and queer people a

I got the 6 months deal and I regret it. GeForce Now has now several times simply not synced back my savegames (Steam claims "upload not started"), including several hours of Baldurs Gate 3.

No, most of you seem to be comfortable ignoring when things turn into safety hazards for people who are not you. That includes Nazis for a sliding scale of people who are not part of majority culture (trying really hard to not say white m

Did you ever do a full writeup of this incident? I'd hope something came of the criminal complaint you filed regarding the assault, but i'm not holding my breath here.

We all know that rule essentially just means don't shit where you eat. But keep sharing "public information" here! If Josh wants to obscure the purpose of his website behind legal technicalities, he can do that. Doesn't

It's called the paradox of tolerance. ISPs aren't the right layer to police this, but every other layer has failed or isn't designed to deal with a death threat generation machine that keeps a proud count of how many people t

Let me restate: Apple does not consider GPT a consumer-facing product. It's meant to entice game developers do "see the power of metal". Proton being well embedded and all sure helps, but it's not the basic prerequisite,

That's not the point. GPT will never be easily accessible to consumers. As stated in this thread, Linux thrives as a platform for games by running Windows binaries very well, and macOS would do well to do the same. That Apple made GPT

If you want to know how neglected Steam on macOS is... it's an Intel binary (now using 100% CEF for its UI) and about 2/3 of the catalog doesn't work because they targeted x86 (not-_64). If you're looking for native Appl

This is a hilarious misinterpretation of history. Imagine if the nazis hadn't been beaten back during the Beer Hall Putsch. If you can level a criticism at violence during the Weimer Republic, it's that is was too unfocused, with

I get it, you want to point out how hard, or even borderline impossible it is to delineate who is a fascist and who isn't, because you think people use the word to loosely. Maybe they know the word better than you, though? Maybe they&#

We went from punching (a form of activism you might not agree with, but one that arguably works to make fascists afraid of public appearances - like milkshakes) a genocidal nazi to outright murder with a extremist religious motive. And you

to be fair, CSGO was a failure for the first few years of its existence. so it's likely you're remembering it best from around 2016. all I know is that I have the operation payback challenge coin, but no real memory of those maps.

Don't have one to recommend for NVMe. For SATA though... we have several Crucial MX500s 1TB that are approaching 2PB written, and none have failed. It's a shame this didn't transfer to their NVMe SSDs- they are all pretty har

My favorite story, of which I heard a few very similar sounding ones over the years, is the case of dead SanDisk SATA SSDs _sometimes_ timing out on all commands after booting up. So if you have one of those drives in your system and you ha

Yes, correct. If this is their best shot at a solution, it doesn't bode well for their interpretation of the AGPL allowing any UX-friendly version of this, let alone a normally functioning API Gateway.

We avoid it entirely. If it can't be done in Terraform, it must be done outside Terraform and fed in via variables. Though of course there's also teams that run ansible from it with lots of implicit settings, making it a pain to m

The ECAM is where one needs to look and start debugging. The pilots here didn't really do that. Audible warnings are only really used if they're extremely time sensitive (GPWS, Stalling, Dual Input). There is no "cacophony of
