Whatever it is that checks for tpm obviously needs tpm, or it wouldn't need a work around

If w11 changes something that relies on tpm, and you don't have tpm, surely you can see how that could cause a significant issue?

My old phone screen was fine, I just hate bright lights and OLED gets way darker.

My new phone doesn't have waterfall edges, presuming that's a curved edge thing. Flat display on all sides, no side bullshit.

Another benefit of OLED, at least in my case (nothing phone 2a) is there's no polarisation layer so I can wear my sunnies and look at my phone on any angle I please, instead of rotating it making the screen vanish. Laptop still does that and it's super annoying, if I'm outside watching videos on it I just can't use sunglasses.

As someone who has a good windows laptop at home, windows at work is actual garbage. We had a month where you just couldn't use the search function, because the act of typing in the search bar caused enough problems it would close the search bar.

Odds are your home computer is somewhat competent and your work one is a steaming pile of trash not fit for purpose.

When I replaced my 5 year old phone the only two benefits I saw was OLED screen (never going without again) and the battery life going from maybe a day to like 40 hours

Either way I'm blind if there's a big fucker next to me at the start, and it's about 1/5th of the car moved to see either way. I guess that's car dependant though, it's only my direct rear visibility that sucks and sideways back is fine but I've definitely been in cars where trying to see what's next to you and a bit back is hard.

Australian, I actually took a photo to show my point today. Technically didn't reverse back because it's back to back parks and you can drive through the first to be in the second, but same end result. My hood is 0.82% of the washington monument, presuming the information i found was correct (1400mm hood, 169m monument).

Sorry about it being a discord link, that's just the most convenient thing for me right now as apparently I can't just upload the image to the comment. Or I just don't know how, either way. Can't see shit to my left, I just happened to know there wasn't anyone coming from when I got in the car, but if I didn't it would be a massive pain in the arse despite leaving the park forwards.

So is 999%

And I've just learned percent is under two layers of keyboard menus so that's just fantastic.

We must have different parks, if there's a car next to me regardless of facing forwards or back, I can't see shit til I'm half out the park anyway. Part of that is most cars being twice the height of my previously normal sized car I guess, so I can't see through their windows anymore.

Don't literally all car manufacturers spy on everyone all the time to an ungodly degree? Not saying it's a good thing, but Kia and Hyundai aren't different here.

Significantly less turning going in forwards, with the exception of parallel parking where both are pretty even, but some people see you pass a park and go right up your arse even though you wanted to back in.

Also car has great visibility forward and fuck all backwards, rear view mirror is like double the size of the rear window (in the reflection, not side by side).

Cats tend to be exactly inside the box, I would expect them to park inside the lines every single time.

I had windows 10 do that while hibernating as well, so that part isn't new. Windows is just a prick.

A lot of religious people aren't inherently dangerous, whereas an active nazi or pedo is likely going to end up hurting someone.

Not that I overly disagree, fuck religion.

I love seeing when someone goes to find a months old comment and they pull out just.. meh shit.

They spent all their time going through someone's profile for the tamest stuff.

Valve is holding up the bar not because valve is great but because everyone else is so shit. I've had a ton of issues with steam throughout the years and it's just.. nothing else is better. I was actually excited for the epic store launch and it's... Well, not the worst, because being the worst is a challenge some places take seriously, but certainly not a good steam replacement especially for low data people.

Steam may not let me control the updates to steam, but it won't force refresh my library causing ping spikes all the time as an intended feature.

The true Bethesda killer was Bethesda themselves

Need a bigger phone so you can hit it with 2 fingers instead of one :D

That went really well, excellent plan, no flaws in sight.

Social security number is a national id isn't it?
