The company also has a vested interest in keeping PC players on their OS, while simultaneously treating the platform like a second class citizen for years. Anybody remember the abortion that was Games for Windows Live? And it isn’t like Windows Mixed Reality or ‘this is now a tablet OS’ are doing them any favors either.
God am I happy I didn’t buy any software on the Microsoft store.
It continues to gather interest. If you don’t pay it down, you will have a larger loan in the future.
Pay your debt.
Hell, you can even burn C4 and it does not explode.
Good. Gun rights are human rights. All people have the right to defend themselves and those around them. Taking that away by banning the only tool that evens the playing field is not OK.
Paper ballots with machine scanning seems like the ultimate combo. Full paper trail and counting is still fast for 99.9% of the votes. The other 0.1% might take some deciphering if the smudge is actually a mark or an erased mark, or if that tiny dot is intended to be a mark. But, given we are talking 0.1% of the votes here, it generally won’t matter, and when it does, having the full paper trail is 100% worth it.
Yeah, this is a place the US is much further above others. You don’t have to answer police questions and not answering them cannot be used against you. It’s kinda important, because the police are real good at basically tricking you into admitting guilt. Not having to answer questions is an extremely powerful tool that many fail to utilize.
O&O Shutup for Windows is also a solid tool for disabling telemetry and bloat. They have a recommended set of options to flip, all of which can be flipped at once, which is real damn convenient.
Yeah, I’m with you there. Don’t pirate an OS. That is just asking for shit to go wrong.
Always, always, always get OS images from the first party or first-party identified mirror.
Linux asnt an option for … Davinci Resolve
Davinci Resolve has a Linux download button on their website. So it should be ok. Admittedly I haven’t used that specific program on Linux, so I can’t say for sure it’s ok or not.
leap into the realm of Apple silicon with an M4 Pro Mac Mini
Yeah, Apple did a real good job with their processors in the last few years. Intel was holding them back hard. It’s amazing how much better the new systems are compared to just a few years ago.
This whole Win 11 mess is what finally convinced me to switch. I still can’t get over that Settings hasn’t reached feature parity with Control Panel yet. Figured if I have to re-learn how to do settings for the 10th time, I might as well do it in an OS that isn’t shoving ads in my face.
Thank you for the solid points. People are dooming way too hard, simply because their preferred candidate lost this round. There is an opportunity for Democrats to improve themselves. They had that wakeup call 8 years ago, and they didn’t take it. Hopefully they will this time and strengthen the quality of the party and the candidates. Simply being ‘not Republican’, their primary strategy, isn’t enough.
teetering on brink of another civil war
Shit has to get much, much, much worse before people are willing to take up arms against their own family member 'en mass. A civil war isn’t one in which you fight a far away enemy, a civil war is one in which many of your family members and friends are on the opposite side. We are nowhere near a civil war, not even close.
Assuming you are talking about who won the US presidential election. Happened 8 years ago too, it wasn’t the end of America then. It won’t be the end of America now.
Why would Pennsylvanians hate carbon-free power?
This day, day 999 of the war, Ukraine certainly hasn’t lost. Enabling strikes to cripple Russia’s war machine will certainly make sure Russia doesn’t win for the next many days too.
In this war of attrition, all one has to do is not lose.
You would rather power it with natural gas? Because that is what would largely power it otherwise. The datacenter does not turn off at night.
Trees are carbon neutral. They pull the carbon out and sequester it in themselves. When they rot or burn, the carbon is returned.
the most advanced armaments available were bolt-action rifles
At the time, individuals owned top-of-the-class warships complete with cannons. It’s what made up a good portion of the continental navy.
The Lewis and Clark Expedition even used the Girandoni rifle, complete with a 21 round magazine.
It’s not a ban on ownership
According to the AP, it is most certainly a ban on ownership. “Illinois banned the sale or possession of semiautomatic weapons”. This is the core reason the law was overturned, it’s unconstitutional to ban arms in common use.
Maybe they should spend less money. Something like Hollow Knight was made at a fraction of the cost of a AAA game, but is excellent.
If you spent a tenth as much on each game, you only need one or two games to do well for the whole set of ten to be a success.
