If you haven't played this series, it's pretty fascinating. Hitman is essentially a "social stealth" puzzle game set in large sandbox levels with clockwork behavior. Want to carry a knife? That's suspicious, unless

On the flip side, we switched to our own hosted-on-k8s GitLab summer 2019 and it's been rock solid since. I patch it monthly (via Helm) and it's painless. About 100 users and it handles all of our CI, which runs on a separate GKE

Arena shooters in general are kind of a dead genre. Quake Champions, Diabolical, and a few others all collapsed. Even Halo Infinite couldn't sustain a player base.

But most apps, at least for me, were distributed as shareware. The developer got 100% of the cut because they sold it on their own website.

Because Brave's business model is to replace the website's advertisements with their own, and give you monopoly money crypto tokens. Just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

I love Linux, but IT can't control it so I can't use it. I wish a BYOD policy for workplaces was more acceptable.

I'm probably spectacularly unlucky as I play Siege, Destiny 2, CoD MW2, Hunt Showdown (#63), and the occasional Fortnite (EGS) and Valorant (Riot), none of which work. Battlefield 2042 is on Steam but not supported, though I'm not

Well there you go, use Signal. Telegram only has opt-in secret chats and they only work 1:1. I'm not willing to have all of my personal communication sitting in plaintext controlled by an unprofitable company founded by Russians and lo

It's fine. I only use Windows to play games and Auto HDR is a decent feature. But it's just riddled with design inconsistencies, PM driven "features" like Teams in the taskbar, and advertisements. I've been pointing

The issue is that flipping that EAC switch means you're effectively disabling a lot of its checks, which is why not many developers want to do it. Maybe this will change as the Steam Deck becomes more popular.

Mastodon just doubled its active user count to around one million; it's already benefited. It doesn't need to replace Twitter to succeed, just provide value to its userbase.

What's the alternative? My mom onboarded my entire extended family to Signal, and she's not technical. I'm not sure of anything else, outside of Meta-owned WhatsApp, with that kind of simplicity.
