Don't Noctua fans generally go in builds made by people who like silence? In which case they'd have silent cases with no glass panes, because those are thinner and a possible source of vibration. They may even glue (opaque) sound

So the low contrast UI was designed by Claude?

by nottorp 6mo ago
Oh right, it's still there. Nothing on my wish list has it :) I had to go to the store page for NBAsomething to see it.

Well I asked an "AI" and it pointed me to a bunch of accessibility guidelines including how to pick pairs of colours that are contrasting enough. I'm no designer so that's where I'd start at :)

The top of the page starts great, but then it goes to grey on grey on the item descriptions for that low contrast Apple like feeling. Firefox/mac os, dark mode on. Edit: no, dark/light doesn't seem to matter. Edit 2: Time to

Are Denuvo using games marked on Steam these days? I've been getting mostly indies so I feel safe, but maybe I should check...

Oh the 2018 should still work with an external monitor and keyboard. I could even get the display cable replaced. What I can’t do is replace the keyboard with ont that won’t break again in 3 months.

The Guardian is in the UK, but I've seen dialogs like that even on some german sites, so i guess it's legal.

That's the charm of Lidl. You go in to get milk bread and meat and come out with a tool that you don't need but it's nice to have.

These mention 25-30 fps, so the mechanism may cost a bit to be that sturdy. I wonder if anyone makes cheaper versions that you're only supposed to update at 1 frame per minute or less...

Also the chatbots are more eager to please than a table saw. Wouldn't surprise me that you could get one to confess to murder with the right prompt.

Yep, there's some mention of automatically resigning the apps every 10 days so it's definitely using the dev tools.

Probably requires a jailbroken ipad? I'll take it as a lesson to not even look at games on iOS [1]. I added it to my wish list on Steam, i might get it on a sale. [1] Not that iOS has many games. I can't afford the free ones.

by nottorp 6mo ago
Meanwhile, I can't install an iOS game i bought in 2021 (Azure Saga if it matters) because it's delisted from the app store. Damned if you pay them, damned if you don't.

Maybe not, but the USB consortium hasn't got around to polluting the USB4 namespace yet so it's safer to buy stuff with the USB4 label. Of course, just give them some time and they'll come up with USB4 "gen classic"
