Yes but you only get the subsidy if you buy Melania’s book

If the phone saves its state before rebooting, why would that help? It will still be accessible after the reboot. What’s the attack vector?

Yeah, won’t work well with multiplayer games though since they typically have anticheats that don’t play well with Linux.

I own my PC. The annoying thing is that I might have to pay a subscription for the gaming OS that I dual-boot to sometimes. Might just make me buy a console instead. OTOH, Sony already charges exorbitant subscription prices for the ability to play online.

Horizon Zero Dawn, Planet of Lana

You know what? I don’t care and I stopped reading this article after one paragraph because I found that I couldn’t be bothered to go on. During the reddit exodus I was pissed off about how they would ruin something good, but I’ve long since lost interest in what happens on that site. Honestly I was a tiny bit surprised that it still exists. Like who the heck goes there still?

Why does it need to reach 1 million names exactly? This is a petition, right?

I don’t think it’s a big deal where you start. The latest iteration of Riven will likely be the most accessible and that’s probably what matters most if you’re just starting out.

Much of the appeal (for me at least) is that the storyline is a Tolkien-like epic story spanning thousands of years. Myst takes place before Riven, and if you wanted to consume it in chronological order you would start by reading the books (which are surprisingly good). But it’s fine to go back and “fill in the blanks” if you play in a different order. It’s like reading The Hobbit after you read The Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Also note that Riven and Riven 2024 are the same story so there’s no need to play both of them. Same with Myst, just pick the most modern iteration of it. The versions that allow you to move and look around freely take away a lot of frustration with trying to make out what the world looks like and finding clues.

You say that as if it was easy, and as if it doesn’t come back again a few Windows updates down the road.

But because it’s all opinion, it gives me nothing except “some guy on the the internet has an opinion”. I can’t do anything with it, especially not form an opinion of my own. It’s just a waste of my time. Mind you, I already am of the opinion that Tesla is going to shit but I found very little in this article to substantiate that opinion should I need to argue for it myself, and the headline is just a plain out lie that that has no basis in the body text. It’s poorly written at best, and intentionally misleading at worst.

Zuckerman vs Zuckerberg. Who will win, the man… or the berg? Either way, they’re both Zuckers.

I was lost when he built that Nether portal at 2:45

In a corporate setting there usually isn’t

And I don’t see why Arch is relevant to the discussion. My point is that software being non-proprietary is not a guarantee for preventing fuckery like Microsoft’s. Profit-maximizing companies will maximize their profits, proprietary software or not. Canonical, which sells a non-proprietary Linux distribution, is an example of this.

I mean canonical also tries to monetize its users. The problem is more shareholders who want profit than the software being proprietary.

I have lost all interest in playing any future Bethesda games because of their engine. It was pretty crap (but acceptable) back in 2011. Now it feels like a scam to pay for their games. Like one of those “GameStation 5” you can buy on Wish.
