I did in my house which was built in the 1950s or 60s and it works. With that said, it was only ok and I wouldn't use this for anything but internet access and some light streaming. This was 10 years ago so it is possible they have gotten better. I have since moved to mesh wifi and it literally solved every issue I had and the whole house has incredible wifi no matter where you are. Plus I use the AP's to plug in my more dedicated stuff since it's faster than wifi to use the backhaul the APs use to communicate with. I do wish I could afford to redo my house and put in ethernet wiring everywhere and have a dedicated switch for everything.
As much as they are pushing to stop 1 time purchases of office, they do still offer it. I purchased a license for like $20 off a discount site for Office 2021, and i have no clue why people need a subscription plan for this. It would take some very specific needs for that to ever be needed and I'm sure a huge percentage would be just fine with the 1 time purchase that lasts 3-4 years of support.
As for businesses that part stinks... once you get integrated with all the services offered, it's going to take a lot to back out since it's not just office they are probably subscribed to but everything else that enterprise has to offer. They are absolutely banking on people to suck it up and accept the position they are in and give in. It's awful, but at the same time if your business went all in and didn't anticipate this then they didn't do their job if you ask me when vetting everything. This feels similar to the recent buyout of VMware and are now pushing insane new license costs. The problem is they went to high where despite the effort it will take to change products people have to. We can only hope Microsoft is on the edge of crossing that line.
To bad they didn't hear about Loops. I don't use this stuff so I have no idea if it's good or not, but it's not Chinese or collecting your data so it would be worth a try. Although if 400k users flooded it I have serious doubts they could scale to meet a demand like that.
Thanks for the update! So in reality, this boils down to not enough bribes, and US competitors (fb, Twitter, etc) most likely encouraging officials more than it has to do with national security.
That's what I said. Really though, that is basically what all consoles are. They just used to get really dramatic upgrades because the period of time they released have been big growth periods. These days? Everyone has conformed to the same thing and given up on proprietary stuff. Then I thought about how this really is odd for Nintendo since they genuinely strive to offer something unique and new each time. Then I realized it's also called switch 2 so I don't feel like they did anything wrong since what did I expect to change when they are literally telling you what it is which is pretty much defined already.
In the end, I think it's a smart move. It's the least disruptive path and probably the cheapest route for them to continue on and as long as the thing is really powerful I think it's a good idea to continue the brand for another 5 years. I do have my doubts that it will be powerful so that we'll just have to wait and see. Nintendo has never been big on offering up the most powerful hardware, so I expect it to be a few years behind already.
That is correct. This only started when Trump was last in office, and he fully supported it. I wish the rest of this country wasn't fooled so easily by crap like this...
People love this stuff. I feel like this falls into addiction territory and they know it. The saddest part is would it kill them to throw you an extra free donut or drink after unlocking each one? Those are some crazy milestones and the only thing I see is how terrible I am for going here so much if I did this so at least give me a reward for doing it at the least?
I feel like this game will do good, considering how long it's been in development already. Plus, with the success of the first game, I feel like it's a low risk that this one will not deliver at least something somewhat decent.
Probably. I have 2 kids, and I still love Nintendo games. It does depend on a few things so I will wait to see what its capable of. I also don't see myself buying it at release, I'm to old for that FOMO.
I can't stand that family. I really am at the end... I just can't stand them and the awful shit they spew. They should never be listened to, and it's sickening anyone thinks they deserve to be heard. Constant sow of hate is all I ever see and hear.
I always thought the entire point of them releasing this was not to make crazy money, but see how to improve upon what they built by having everyone beta test it for them. They really didn't have much info on how to make VR successful since none of them are really big. Sure, there's a market, but they want to know what it will take to get everyone on board not just the enthusiasts. Personally, I think it's going to take more than just an app to get there.
It will be interesting to see what big changes they make to the next version since I bet they are willing to change just about everything if they think the data collected proves it's needed. At that point I feel like version 2 will really be the product I want to see. I'll never buy or own one of these, and I hate apple products, but it's interesting to see what they will bring to the table since they obviously are investing a ton of money into this.
As much as I want to love rogue light games, I just can't get into most because I do not enjoy repeating the same thing over and over. It's especially exhausting when you start doing 30-40 minutes runs and I am just like, nah, there's no way I'm doing another run once I die. With that said, my favorite by far is also Slay the Spire because a run doesn't take very long and is lighthearted, so it works perfectly. The other games I enjoyed were Dead Cells, and Children of Morta. Hades was great as well, but you mentioned that.
Just imagine how much that war will cost. Even if this did happen and ended up with Greenland, how long would it take before any of those things benefit at all. It's disgusting this, and any of the other things being talked about are even ideas...
I gave mine up spring of 2016 and never looked back. Surprisingly it didn't have to do with the election either. I remember talking to a few friends a few months later and they said I got out at the right time since it was the start of the crazies coming out of the woodwork.
I have no clue how people can be so addicted to stuff like this that they make all the excuses in the world to not go through with it.
