   You're absolutely right, but to some extent, that'll be covered by their platforms, who are pledging at least $50,000 to OBS (but I suspect much more). [1] [1]: https://obsproject.com/contribute

   In terms of bugs, I'd like to add a particularly interesting one, where for some reason, the latest Google Drive can cause UWP Icons to disappear. Now, this is some odd interaction between Google Drive and Windows, but it is... strange

   MacType works nice on the surface, but using it feels like a bit of a minefield, because if it interacts incorrectly with one of your programs, it can be an annoyance, and because you've gotten used to the font rendering, you might not

    In addition to some of the other oddities with the article (i.e. the absolutely wrong claim about Brave's ad blocker), I think the security between Chromium and Firefox is a bit too simplistic? This piece [1] might go too far in the ot

    As odd as this comparison is, it isn't even advice meant for you. It's meant for other Government agencies.

    What are you on about? The TF2 Source leak has not revealed any new vulnerabilities, and is not the cause of the bot infestation. Valve's inability to maintain a game, sure, but it isn't related.

    You can put in a Spotify playlist link, and pull in all the songs from that into a local playlist, but it can't directly play a remote playlist (i.e. updating when new songs are added).

    I know back in the day, there was a very similar tool called SARDU [0]. It is closed source from what I know, so if that was your breaking point, fair enough. EDIT: There have also been YUMI and Easy2Boot in a similar vein before Ventoy. [0

    I wonder whether Microsoft would try and tie Discord accounts to Microsoft accounts. I think it'd be a bad call, as unlike Mojang (to be fair, it took years for Microsoft to actually migrate them), Discord does have a proper accounts i
