Simple economy actually. Supply exceeds demand, value on the market is lower.
On the stock market, you can do all kinds of fuckery to gain from this.

File name file system! Looks like we broke the universe! Wait, why is my MFT so large?!

Even if nuclear war breaks out, at least the bank will still have records of how much we still owe them :)

Well, it depends.
This specific application here is for usenet, so it is of no use to those who torrent.

If you do casual coughs torrenting and search for your stuff once in a while and download on your main machine, then no. Theres no need for anything else.

If you self host a media server, maybe a torrent client on the same machine, an arr stack can help out with it to the point that you will no longer visit a torrent site again. Once set up, instead of searching directly on a specific site, you would visit a self hosted page for say, movies, and search there. The search would be handled by another self hosted app which would search from a list of torrent sites you configured.

Its not that I don't agree with you but I figure there has to be a business case for it if Toyota is willing to keep investing in it for 25 years. Surely, at this point, they would have thrown in the towel but they keep at it. And to make maters more interesting, they don't seem to give a shit about full electric either. It feels like they know something we don't.

It is, at its core, an exploration and infrastructure building game. A lot of the gameplay is "take X to Y" and the infrastructure you build helps you do it and determines how hard your task is gonna be. Combat is not plentiful, but it is there as an extra obstacle to overcome. If you dont find this core mechanic engaging enough, it probably isnt a game you would enjoy.

polarity issues

Not an issue, you can swap line and neutral freely. It becomes an issue if you want to use three phases and a three phase motor (because the order of phases is important) but that is covered by other sockets. Plain old Schuko is one phase, LNG.
EDIT: thought about it some more, yeah, devices with switches on L may be pose a shock risk in some cases if you swap.

ERROR: Restore point "monke" not found. Latest restore point is "shrew", would you like to return to it instead?

I need to make more frequent backups...

Easier than you think it is. Hard to keep at it. All you need to do is stop using a phone or computers. Death cert is only needed when you've been compromised and people are out to get you. Gold isnt really usable unless you stumble onto a secret underground society where all trade is done in gold. Realistically, you'd sooner be trading goods (or services) for other goods (or services).

This level technically shuns technology and that brings its own challenges. Its like saying you cant have privacy with technology. I dont necessarily agree with this statement so I'd say don't go to this level.

No performance impacts on regular browsing? I never dared to run a DNS on a wifi only device. Or are you using some kind of Ethernet over USB thing?

I once downloaded a 650MB movie in less than 10 minutes. I dont know how that was possible at the time as I had a sub 1 mbit line. I just know I went to the bathroom and came back to a downloaded movie. Always figured it was a bug of some kind on the modem as apparently the cable modem was doing the rate limiting.

Did they really? Microsoft championed Teams and its pretty accepted in corporate environments today, especially if they are already on Microsoft.
Afaik, Skype for Business was merged into Teams. Skype for non-business consumers has been virtually dead for longer. The way I see it, Microsoft let go of the brand, the value of which is questionable in this decade. When they bought it, I remember the rumors saying it was because of its voice codec, which probably got used in everything from xbox live to teams in the end.

The PS5's price is higher than it was 4.5 years ago at launch, a device with identical function. While we should be seeing a lite version at 30% the price, we see a pro version at 50% more. Crazy.

Old DOOMs up till 64. Halo 1 was also very repetitive in its lookalike hallways and got me lost multiple times. I don't miss the get lost mechanics of these games. Especially in doom where the function of the many look alike chambers was unknown to me so the architecture made no sense.

Thanks. I just shoot what I see on my travels.

Try Minami Lane. It's a soft and cozy very light management game. Short and sweet. No romance or pink though.

Yup. The reality, while shitty, Microsoft still publishes games on multiple platforms (2 at minimum - PC and xbox). On PC, the games are sold on multiple storefronts with varying discounts and sales. Oblivion remastered just launched with a 17% discount on another store on PC for example.

Nintendo has a complete monopoly on the platform they publish for and completely control the prices.

For me, all these price increases are doing is moving me more towards PC. And to a larger degree off AAA titles all together.

This game is really pretty. Here's some shutterbugging I did this week. Mostly nature.

I absolutely need a camera mode. Right now, I'm just using a mod to remove the UI.

I had a similar dilemma and just went with bitwarden because I don't trust myself not to fuck up. Bitwarden can't access the passwords without my master pw (afaik) so I feel safe knowing that. I use it on all my devices so it gets synced there and even if the service is down, I have my passwords.

I'll self host it when I reach the next level of paranoia.

I see a lot of people downplaying the remaster as a fresh coat of ue5 paint. I'm playing the game, having disliked the original, and I'm loving it. I'm kind of impressed with what they did with the game, basically remaking the world elements in ue5 and leaving the gameplay as it was with minor tweaks. Fresh coat of paint feels more like rip out the drywall and do it again. Just leave the structure alone. Like, the electrical and plumbing is still there and feels the same but it looks completely different.

Games like this dont come very often, so if anything, this remaster and BG3 should raise the bar on what we should expect from a new TES game.
