Looks like everything is essentially in the same spot UI wise, but with a native application that hopefully gets moving a lot faster.

I’ve noticed that currently on Bitwarden, for auto fill it takes 6-7 seconds just to get authenticated with fingerprint and fill in the username and password field. That should hopefully be down to like 2 or 3 seconds.

It’s not “irregular”, and it’s been done before as protest. A Buddhist monk did it in the past to protest the slaughter of cattle.

They do like money, but Valve also loves providing a service to people.

Nobody uses Epic Games, Origin, Ubisoft Connect, or Battle.net because they want to, they use it because they have to.

Steam Awards is a bit janky sure, but to say that their inability to run pointless awards properly ruins the convenience and value that Steam brings to its users would be a gross overstatement.

It would be better spent in our hands. I for one would like to keep the money I work for.

B-but that’s communism! /s

Does anyone know yet if long COVID is an auto-immune disease? I only assume it is but otherwise don’t know.

I travelled recently, and was filled with disgust when I was told to scan my boarding pass and look into the camera to get in line. I would have asked to go through an alternative line but didn’t want to miss my flight.

What the fuck is wrong with people

The Samsung SCH-U740

It was a good one! It literally flipped 2 ways.

It’s possible competition will just recognize their advantage and pay workers more to get that step ahead.

You could even say, they cancelled Bud Light.

Oh wait no, they don’t do that! /s

Yeah but it doesn’t work on macOS, only Surface Pro and Raspberry Pi, and a few others I think.

The M2 chip is ARM, it just adds some hurdles. I think there’s some work being done for dual-booting Linux on the M2 chip, but as for Windows you have to use Parallels in macOS.

Older Macs with Intel processors will of course run any OS no problem.

I just worry about driver support as I do for Lenovo. They’re probably fine, but again, I haven’t used a Dell in a while.

Dell XPS might be good but I’m not sure, somehow I doubt it.

Macs of course will work properly, at the expense of having to use macOS.

My trio used to be Apple, Dell and Lenovo. But now it’s Framework and Apple.

Lenovo is shit. They really aren’t worth a damn anymore.

I’ve had fingerprint driver issues with my expensive Lenovo Yoga, and AHCI driver issues with an expensive Lenovo ThinkPad. Support is non existent, and if you do manage to find any help through their channels, they don’t help and don’t care.

My next laptop will be with Framework or some other company that doesn’t try to screw me.

You’re not wrong. And unless the controllers have some sort of TPM module in them then yeah they’ll be easily bypassed.

Given that Xbox is a closed console, couldn’t they just have rootkit anticheat by default?

Maybe I’m stuck in the past but it still seems as if consoles still don’t employ anticheats.

Not to mention that the 5 seconds countdown timer is bullshit. In actuality, the timer appears after about a second of playing through the ad, then locks at 5 seconds for about a second and a half, then slowly counts down to 1 where it locks for a second and a half again, and finally gives you the option to skip the ad. I’d wager it’s closer to 7 or 8 seconds per “5 second” ad.

Yeah I wouldn’t finish homework till like 8:30 PM, a lot of the time I just didn’t have the time to finish it… Homework is trash!

I hope this isn’t a “Net Neutrality, oh and we’ll also spy on you for the good of humanity” bill

Not sure why people are downvoting you. I’ve been in about 2 Valorant games where I’ve seen people straight up get banned mid-match. It terminated the match immediately.

On top of that, I’ve never seen obvious cheaters in Valorant. Go play Counter-Strike for long enough and you’ll find spin bots.

Is rootkit anti-cheat sketchy? Absolutely. Does it work really fucking well? Absolutely.
