  • Go into Steam Settings > Compatibility, and turn on "Enable Steam Play for all other titles", Steam will then ask to restart. Install your game (which should now not complain because it's getting the Windows version for proton) then go change the setting back.

    Edit: Added the correct settings section and proper option name, because I was originally winging it, writing this comment on mobile.

  • Dead Products (Death Date)

    • Mentioned in article:
      • Google Podcasts (Later in 2024)
      • YouTube Premium Lite (Oct 2023)
      • Gmail's "Basic HTML" view (Jan 2024)
    • Not mentioned in article:
      • Google Optimize (30 Sept 2023)
      • Google Domains (30 Sept 2023)
  • If you’ve never heard of this, that’s because it got a very small rollout to only Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden.

    This is in relation to YouTube Premium Lite, and not, as this shortened article implies, Google Podcasts.

  • True, I guess I was thinking more in terms of "media acquisition" when I meant integrations 😉

  • trakt.tv could be a good web-based solution. It wouldn't have the same integrations as the likes of Overseerr or Jellyseerr though, which would expect to be paired with Plex/Jellyfin and the *arr stack.

  • I think it's getting down-voted purely because OP's title is essentially "mIcRo$oFt bAd!" instead of describing the issue. It's not getting down-voted anywhere else this article was cross-posted to, where they used the article's actual title.

  • VS Code has an optional feature that can allow remote access, which could be [used/abused] to [access/breach] otherwise secure networks. Because the executable is signed by Microsoft, it won't be flagged as malicious by antivirus/malware scanners even though it could easily be used as such. The article shows the steps the author attempted to detect and block this tunnel functionality, with limited success.

  • Yeah, assuming you're talking about the US one, I have to agree it definitely loses itself towards the end. It just starts bringing in crazy caricatures instead of fully formed relatable characters because the goofier parts of the established cast were received well. Once Catherine Tate shows up, I'm eyeing the exits.

  • Regarding Bocchi the Rock I have to disagree, all I want is more of that show beamed straight into my eyeballs!

    I can't think of any anime that could be improved with less episodes, because I only continue watching something if I actually like it, and I can't remember anything I just walked away from. Maybe one of the two versions of Fullmetal Alchemist? That show really didn't impress me much at the time though, really only watched as much of it as I did because friends were so into it at the time.

    Non-anime wise, Dexter, Weeds and Supernatural all should've ended wayyy earlier and were kept in life support because of prior successful ratings, off the top of my head.

    1. You can start applications from windows command line. Depending on the program you might need to provide the full path to the executable though. Eg: Start chrome.exe
    2. Windows has a (preinstalled in Window 11, optional in Windows 10) software called WinGet that will update all recognized applications via command line. Covers stuff from Windows Store, and most popular software installers. Basically acts as a Windows package manager.
    3. batch files, software like autohotkey... automation can definitely be done in Windows too.
    4. You mean shortcuts?
    5. Pretty certain you can defer updates until the time suits, but Windows is definitely more forceful in pushing updates than Linux. There are ways of turning off updates too, but probably not without third party software or digging in regedit blindly.
    6. Rainmeter could provide something similar.
    7. Do you mean Command Prompt, or Windows Terminal? Terminal is actually pretty nice, and very customizable, both in terms of theme and functionality.

    I run Arch Linux (btw) and have a very neglected Windows 11 partition.

    I have a command set up in linux using ddcutil that allows me to tell my second monitor to swap source from HDMI (Chromecast) to DisplayPort (PC) and back as desired. No clue how I'd do that in Windows.

  • The flatpak thing is a known issue, where it doesn't correctly remove the 32bit package on update.

    This bash script should find the latest and remove the rest:

     `
        
    #!/bin/bash
    # Filename: flatpak-clean-nvidia.sh
    
    # List latest 64bit Nvidia flatpak (it doesn't leave cruft behind) and note the version
    FLATPAK_LATEST_NVIDIA=$(flatpak list | grep "GL.nvidia" | cut -f2 | cut -d '.' -f5)
    
    # List all installed 32bit Nvidia flatpaks, ignore latest version, uninstall rest of list
    flatpak list | grep org.freedesktop.Platform.GL32.nvidia- | cut -f2 | grep -v "$FLATPAK_LATEST_NVIDIA" | xargs -o flatpak uninstall
    `
      
  • All I could find was an anime named "Carole & Tuesday", which I think I'm going to add to my list too. Is that what you meant?

  • I don't watch much anime, but really enjoyed Bocchi the Rock! when I stumbled across it.

    Would I like this show too, or is the only similarity that both shows follow a band?

  • I'd say yes, but different people have different ideas of where "there" even is, tbh.

  • You can know Google are trying to stitch shit up in their own favor, and still wish !memes had less "cHrOmE bAd!" memes at the same time.

  • For me, I'd say it's a close call between GTAIV: Ballad of Gay Tony's "Gold Star" achievement for 100%-ing all the DLC missions, or Deus Ex: Human Revolution's "Factory Zero" achievement for completing the Missing Link DLC without using any praxis upgrades or weapons (This one was on Xbox 360, but it's in my steam backlog too!).
