I think starlink is more than that as even more things rely on a (good) Internet connection ingeneral than rely on satellites, and traditional connectivity methods leave many people underserved even in countries like America let alone the world.
It definitely has its problems, if nothing else that it's privately owned and anyone who wanted to compete would then massively amplify those problems.
I think the argument of increased cheating has some merit, but less so in hugely popular games like fortnite. Because no anticheat is actually perfect and people who want to cheat will just use whatever method works. In a popular game like fortnite the demand is high enough that someone will find a way to cheat regardless of Linux support
it sounds like the unlikely outcome of two reasonable policies.
you might not get back the device you send in - say it's a simple broken screen and they're willing to cover it. its easier to just send you an already refurbished identical model and then toss your phone into the queue to be fixed later.
unauthorized parts may violate your warranty and whatever you send in isn't going to get repaired.
They should still just return it. but if you know it's not covered you shouldn't really send it in and it makes sense to cover their ass policy wise even if they do make an effort to just return them.
It depends on the package really. Sometimes you're better off without the fixes that occurred in the last 2 years if it means avoiding the new bugs in the last 2 years.
IMO the more you try to stick to the latest releases, the more important it is to continue to stay updated. but every upgrade is a chance for new bugs or just breaking changes, so for new users starting with a stable distro is a good choice.
.. except for browsers, where you both need the newest features but REALLY need the newest fixes.
Agreed but I think the intent is still interesting. My interpretation would be that you can still talk to friends, but not about the vacation. Id still say yes but I'm curious if that changes it for you.
The more simplified question would be just not bringing your phone or a camera, but then id say no as that just sounds like a dangerous trap and isn't really what the question is trying to ask- it's more 'would you go on a vacation and just enjoy it, or do you only want to go on vacation so people know you went? '
slightly off topic but I've been disappointed with ultrawide support and really advise against it for most people. Many single player games that do support it clearly weren't designed for it and just give you a prettier pillarboxed 16:9, like Hades adding some art on the sides.
And multiplayer games just crop your vision down so you have a weird FoV and see the same amount horizontally as a 16:9 user, but can't see as much above or below you as they can. Proper support would let you see more horizontally than 16:9 players and since that's the vast majority of players it's understandable.. but then anyone who does buy an ultrawide has to run it in 16:9 with pillarboxing or be at a disadvantage.
the content being scraped is from users, they do not control what bots are added to servers.
It's much more like the Cambridge Analytics scandal in that users posted content that was shared with friends but not explicitly shared publicly, but those friends then granted a third party access to all of the data.
the only slightly justifiable use of slotted is something like the face plate on a light switch or power outlet, where it doesn't have to be particularly tight and it's nice you can remove it in a pinch with a fingernail or dime.
.. but really if someone came and replaced all of mine with torx I can't say id complain, so its not like they're good in that use case.. just less awful
if there was actual choice involved you might have a point but it doesn't really matter what changes when you don't have the ability to decline.
but for the record I believe this update removed your right to legal recourse and forces you through binding arbitration, so yes, this one does have something worth being pissed about.
