   I would have looked at this if I hadn't already jumped ship. It sounds like the problem I was having.

   That is a very good point, what on earth was I thinking, I didn't try pinging it from my steamdeck. Actually, I'll try that, but now I'm back on windows the ship has sailed. Good point about AI too. This is on mint Linux and

   I've done this several times over the last 18 years or so. The most recent was a few months a go. And my steamdeck persuaded me. Unfortunately I ran into the same WiFi networking issue I've never managed to resolve. Even on differ

   That's not how I see it at all. Steam has some abusive policies like not allowing your game to be on other platforms for a cheaper price. They take 30 percent cut. Compare that to epic takes nothing on first million revenue and then 12

   I might be misreading you, but are you saying that the whole Qanon thing isn't a baseless conspiracy theory?

    I don't understand how the placebo effect is a human bias. Is it?

    Just get rid of the ads and stop presenting passive aggressive sign up screens that don't have a no button just a remind me in 3 days button. Oh and stop resetting preferences on update.

    Yeah... I was thinking about what I wrote above, I came to the conclusion that actually there is a limit. Because some people are awful parents, and that is reflected in how damaged some people are. I guess I could see the woman in the muse

    All kids are different, my second has about 20 tantrums a day. I've no idea why. It's getting really hard to deal with. But it will pass. Honestly the only certainty is that unless you have been 100 percent responsible for a very

    Optional field can be addressed with good defaults. Well, that is how I think about it. I.e. if they aren't passed in then they are set to a default value.

    Uk gov already talking about age verification (my read: identify verification) for VPN services. Grim. I'm guessing they'd block Firefox if they don't comply.

    I heard him say that too. And he's probably right. But it's more like every knitter now has access to an automated loom. Oddly I feel AI is getting me off the endless learn new tech churn. I was looking at a few odd ball programmi

    In cinemas in the UK that I've been to, the ushers actively tells people to turn off their screens, there's also announcements at the start saying this.

    Everyone I know with an Espresso machine still goes to coffee shops. Beer is cheaper from a super market but everyone I know prefers pubs. For some reason this does not hold with cinemas. I way prefer the escapism of the cinema to sitting

    But the overall picture is they are creating a lower regulation burden than California etc but you think this favours incumbents?

    I got one about 1992ish I think. I had a Gameboy before that. And a spectrum before that. To be honest the game boy was a revelation, smooth fun polished games. My spectrum crashed all the time (thanks Alan sugar and your cheaper manufactur

    I can never understand why so many people resort conspiracy theories when the obvious answer is supply and demand. I know well educated people, who do this when they talk about the resential property market. (Including an accountant).

    I use passwordsafe https://pwsafe.org/ Sync the file to Dropbox. Available on all my devices. 2fa protection in password safe - yubi + password. This is probably not the most secure system in the world but I've been us

    What exactly makes you think they are "hell-bent on proving something that may not actually be supported by evidence.". The only thing they've done is observe that the drug dealers outside their house weren't white.
