I can't wrap my head around that as well. Given OP's expertise and experience with technology, how was this option better than using a credit card. Obviously I'm not claiming it was OP's mistake, that wouldn't make

That’s actually part of the problem. Pretty much every company will contract a 3rd party service to perform those checks, making sure they get as much bang for as little buck as possible. Said services are usually the weak link that shares

It's so strangely creepy, it always feels like a it's cropped from a Giorgio Armani perfume ad or something.

It sure beats giving up, laying on the ground and letting the moss reclaim us.

I too won't be getting one, especially since I already have enough power at my desk. But I love how amazing of an idea it is. A form factor and ease-of-setup of a console that brings all the best features of PC gaming (inter-generation

This legislation has a potential to "radicalize" a lot of people. I don't agree with many of the decisions by the EU, but at the end of the day the pros do outweigh the cons and in a hypothetical Brexit-like referendum I woul

Wow, it’s always crazy how the folks who have nothing to hide get mad when the lock on the stall door in a public bathroom doesn’t work…

As far as I know , CDMA, compared to GSM, didn't have a SIM card equivalent. The identity information was baked into the handset and if you wanted to move your number from one phone into another, you had to get in touch with your carr

Totally agreed. The one thing I don’t see criticized enough is the lack of a SIM card slot in international models. I understand they physically couldn’t fit it in, but I bet it's a deal breaker for everybody who has no experience with

That's why they do it so stealthily, most of the time encryption isn't even mentioned. What they often do is talk about the need to "protect the children" at the responsibility of the service provider, who in order to co

I'm pretty sure A Minecraft Movie has already made more money that the game had made when he made that promise. Back then he couldn't have foreseen the size of the money printing factory that the game would become.

I don't think that the god-awfulness of Windows Update is in any way related to the hardware you're running when anything else on the market designed for the same purpose outperforms it. Updates take ages to download and even long

According to the SHA256SUMS from Canonical's official download page at https://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/24.04.3/release/ that is the correct checksum.

Try pressing on the original link and opening it in another tab, that usually bypasses opening the app for me.

Every installer there comes with an executable and those files you mentioned, for some reason they are always split into 4GB chunks, that’s why there’s so many. AFAIK download all is not available, you will have to get them one by one. But

I'm a Linux user who buys a lot of games on GOG and I've never had a problem running them using Wine stable, with the only exception being games that supposedly don't even work on Proton yet. Majority of the games there don&#

It seems to me the UK isn’t all that aware of just how gone are the days of the British Empire. I can imagine the OSA being somewhat relevant internationally in the pre-handover days, but not today.

A couple days ago there was a post here about how most LLMs enter an endless replying loop if you ask them to show you the non-existing seahorse emoji. Asking it to show you one and minimizing the window might be enough.

It's rooted in what smartphones are and have been since 2007, locked-down rectangles where the user has minimal control over the software. On a PC anybody can install anything, be it a program or operating system, this wouldn't be

I tried asking ChatGPT to generate an image of the seahorse emoji, ended up with a pretty sane result, though complimenting the picture and asking what the Unicode code for it is makes it enter the same loop.

The confusing nature of product naming is I think pretty typical of MS. It’s just like with personal accounts, where there is no Outlook or Hotmail domain for logging in, it’s still live dot com, and Windows Live hasn’t been a thing for at
