This… It’s not so much that I’d never advocate a windows install, it’s that linux should be the first port of call and Windows be the specialist fallback for when Linux doesn’t handle the use case well.

Put it on an isolated vlan, run your own ntp server and if needed spoof the ntp dns it uses… Easy 😅

Isn’t that the point, to fuck up digital advertising accounts so the data is unreliable and can’t be used?

While true, they tend not to bare the costs of the environmental damage, at least when these activities are poorly regulated.

But once you have it’s output, unless you already know enough to judge if it’s correct or not you have to fall back to doing all those things you used the AI to avoid in order to verify what it told you.

Aren’t you letting perfect be the enemy of good here? You are looking for a unicorn and likely will never find it.

They released the engines for the games minus 3rd party libraries they didn’t have rights to. Working builds were available within a day of the code being released as people found copies or wrote replacements for the missing code.

So much negativity, regardless of motivation shouldn’t we applaud big companies for doing the right thing and reward them? Or are we all just going to fall over ourselves to give TakeTwo our money for GTA6 after they’ve screwed with the community?

OpenRA is just a set of fan games though skinned to look like the originals, this code is the real deal to play the original gane content. OpenRA only has remakes of the early games too, the source release has Renegade and General/Zer Hour.

The switch itself implements the DRM and can play any official physical game without issue.

Nope, the game will work regardless of what Nintendo do, though you are right they can kick you off their online platform. That isn’t them deciding what happens with your physical copy though that is them deciding who can access their servers for what ever arbitrary reason they decide. In fact if they kick you off, the only games you’ll still be able to play are the physical ones.

Can I put second hand carts in my switch and play? Yes I can.

This isn’t strictly true because most games do still have a playable version on the disk. What is more is that it’s not as straight forward to revoke a disc, especially for passive media and the license is legally transferable due to doctrine of first sale as I understand it.

This feels like a tough one for betteridges law of headlines.

Bioware has been replaced a person at a time ship of theseus style with lesser quality staff, the magic has long departed and it’s just another mediocre studio now trading on a name.

These kinds of figures are pointless without knowing the starting number of users, it could be an increase from 10 to like 30 or something… Also, this sudden rush of articles mentioning rednote seems more like an attempt to induce movement to it, but that could just be me being cynical.

Just like pretty much all media ever really. It’s not like many novels, songs, movies and TV shows are world wide hits either.

All a NAS is is a separation of concerns, if you build a system who’s only job is to provide networked storage, then that system is a NAS. If you buy an off the shelf “NAS” and proceed to run a bunch of services on it, that is a home server, not a NAS. Build your own NAS and most of your concerns go away.

A baby doesn’t learn concepts by repeating words over and certainly knows what a mother is before it has any label or language to articulate the concept. The label gets associated with the concept later and is not purely by parroting and indeed excessive parroting normally indicates speech development issues.

I think the point is that it would have still been a fantastic game if it hadn’t sunk a load of money into looking like a movie.
