It's illegal when a regular person steals something, but it's innovation and courage, when a huge corporation steals something. Interesting how that works

Especially in comparison to some of the horrors we've seen released on Switch, from Nintendo's own first-party developers, the engine XC3 was built on is pretty damn impressive, for how much it offers on such limited and old hardware.

If they can somehow iterate and improve over that, and reuse it further, that's great news

Google claiming it’s a security juggernaut is the same as when my dad used to burn music on MiniDisk, after being convinced that it “expands quality” beyond lossless

Hope they win. Very well deserved nominations

This is really big. Having the same set of fixes across wine distributions in just one release is a huge step forward

Neo-nazis, or any kind of fascists, have no space anywhere. They can fuck off to the next platform, but they can’t run forever

If your CPU was one of the affected units with defective hardware, no amount of microcode will fix that. Otherwise get the update as usual

Oh no, not a new thing. Manjaro has a very long history of consistently fucking things up. I would not, in good consciousness, recommend Manjaro to anyone

Endeavour will benefit from it directly. There's nothing proprietary in the distribution, except for a repository with their theming, a keyring/mirrorlist, and a few alpm hooks for nvidia and dracut installs.

With Manjaro it's a little different, but who knows. They have other issues to worry about

I never found that to be an issue, personally. It's not as satisfying, as it is in other games, but i enjoyed it enough

It's not a review bomb if it's fully deserved. If you make a bad product, you deserve a bad review, and maybe Bethesda should have thought about that ahead of time

Post-2.0 Cyberpunk is one of the best gaming experiences I've had in a long time. You can tell it's a product of effort, and love for the project. They have taken in a considerable amount of feedback from pre-1.5.

Meanwhile, Starfield is a complete miss in just about every way imaginable, and the expansion has followed through the same footsteps. On top of that, the studio actively gaslit people who expressed disapproval, even when it was constructive criticism.

I genuinely just don't understand what's going on in the tech sector anymore

Short answer is that you don't have to do anything.

Slightly longer answer is that you can remove all existing nvidia packages, with any boot parameters they may have required, call it a day.

I don’t understand how giant corporations repeatedly get away with treating their customers like they’re completely fucking stupid.

Some manager purposefully ordered the engineers to put the ads there. That’s how they ended up there

Yeah, trickling down from billionaires to millionaires.

But the billionaires are doing great though, so what’s the issue? /s

When a colossal part of the population suffers from a whole plethora of societal issues, most of which either go ignored, or are actively being made worse by local government, no fucking surprise people want to end it

My uni provided a complete license for the entire MATLAB suite, but this piece of software is genuinely a nightmare to use. Every time i has to touch it, i wish i just had python instead

This would have been great back in 2016.

I used to really like my Home Minis, until Google enshittified the platform to the point of being worthless

My strategy for buying boards was always to start from the cheapest ones, and go up, until it satisfies my needs in IO and features. I genuinely don’t get why some people buy the top-end part, with a 4090, just to play league of legends, and never use a single feature they laid for
