It is definitely the person who pulled the trigger’s fault, but I don’t understand why we would want minors whose brains haven’t fully developed to have point-and-kill weapons.
You point out how awful these kids are, and then post in support of making it easier for them to kill. That’s strange to me.
Although I guess it makes sense, because you also seem to imply that deaths aren’t more likely to occur if guns are involved. I just can’t agree with you there.
Wait so then does playing a game that maxes out my GPU for two hours use enough power to charge 1000 smartphones?
Because that’s a lot.
Yes, a server owner can see what is played. But this is sending email summaries about what I am watching on my own server. Even if that friend is not invited to my particular server, and even libraries that I haven’t shared with anyone.
It doesn’t even matter if I’m embarrassed by what it sends. That information is private. Period.
I got blindsided by this in the same way. I was sitting next to a coworker and they said “Oh hey, a report on what you’ve been watching on Plex!”
Now, I thought that it was reporting what I’d been watching on his Plex server, and I’ve always known he can see what I watch. But he showed me the email. It was stuff I’d been watching on my own Plex server.
Now it wasn’t embarrassing stuff, as it’s my family Plex server, but I was absolutely livid. This is private. Period. I can think of many, many reasons that someone would want to keep this private, even if it’s not about porn.
I alerted my friends, and we all figured out how to turn it off. It seems like it shouldn’t be that big of a deal, but I feel extremely violated. I absolutely know that someone in that meeting said “Hey, some users won’t like this,” and they were overridden. Because some senior director had a metric to hit. And that means they no longer care about their reputation. It’s a sign that they’ve gotten too big to care.
hopefully this is just a ‘blip’ and rates of theft begin to fall again as the economy recovers.
If not, we can expect to see legal channels raising their prices again to cover the losses caused by piracy.
This is a crazy thing to write. Every streaming service already has their prices set at whatever they think will maximize profit. If they raise prices in response to piracy, they’ll push even more people away.
If anything, piracy will serve as competition, and it will cause the streaming services to lower prices.
Actually, you’re right, I apologize. I had it in my head that it was for a console. For general PC gaming at a desk I agree with Nobara.
This is nonsense. The desktop environment is a secondary concern when it comes to building a console-like experience, and it being 100% proprietary does not mean it’s not polished.
Don’t let this guy discourage you from trying it. I’ve been using Linux for over 20 years, and the Steam Deck is the most polished experience I’ve seen for gaming on Linux, even for non-Steam games. If you decide it’s too limiting, you can just switch to something else.
I would get a slight buzz if it had been a while since my last cigarette, but otherwise it was a satisfying of cravings. It’s been about 10 years and I still miss being able to smoke a cigarette during or after stressful situations, such as watching sports.
It’s kind of like sleep. If you get enough sleep, you don’t necessarily feel good, just normal. If you don’t get enough sleep, you feel bad. If you regularly don’t get enough sleep, you might think getting enough sleep feels good, because you’re so used to feeling bad and you have something to compare it to. If you’re currently in a state of being tired, it feels good to lie down and go to sleep.
The act of smoking is like waking up and snoozing your alarm and going back to sleep. It feels good to go back to sleep, but only because you’re tired and you’re satisfying that need. Someone who sets their alarm early on purpose in order to get that “go back to sleep” feeling when they snooze might seem crazy to people who just get enough sleep. And, like smoking, it might piss off the people around you because they have to listen to your alarm go off constantly.
It depends on a lot of factors, like how my productivity is measured, how long is the commute, etc. but in general I’d pick the 4 days in the office.
It can be hard to support the first amendment when you disagree with what’s being said, but that’s why it’s so important.
Agree with reducing power. A common mistake when using multiple access points is to set them all to full power.
Devices usually don’t constantly look for a better signal, instead they look for alternatives once the current connection quality is bad. Some devices will hold on for dear life until it’s borderline unusable.
Unless you’re looking for redundancy, the best case scenario is to have only one good option in every area of your home. That’s not always possible, especially where they overlap, but the closer you can get to that ideal, the more likely it is that your device will make the switch.
You should also be able to adjust the backhaul power separately, so you don’t have connectivity issues between the extender and router.
You mean literally every single other wireless mouse that you can buy.
I’ve also used this mouse for many years, and it is infuriating when it dies and I have to stop what I’m doing and just… wait.
No other mouse requires that I adhere to a “charging routine.” With other mice, I can just leave my desk. I don’t have to make sure I plug my mouse in before I leave work, otherwise risking getting out of the habit and then having my work interrupted by a hilarious (I know it’s hilarious because my coworkers laugh at me when it happens) design flaw.
I fixed the problem though. I had a wired mouse tucked away that I could use for a day rather than do the 2 minute charging shuffle when my magic mouse died.
