So a guy on twitter made up a story about Vance admitting to fucking a couch in Hillbilly Elegy, which is verifiably false.
AP posts an article which says as much, but it's titled 'No, JDVance did not have sex with a couch', which is a slightly different claim. Since they can't affirmatively prove that Vance hasn't ever fucked a couch, they took the article down.
The game "logic" you're talking about is tied to the frame rate by default. Or perhaps it is more accurate to say that a game's frame rate is a function of available compute power and the complexity of the logic that must be solved every update (every frame).
Accounting for this usually isn't difficult, but developers are only human and it's easy to make mistakes when your game is being developed for very few hardware variants. The original dark souls was ps3/xbox360 only. Since the game performed the same on all it's target systems, the oversight wasn't obvious until PTDE released for PC much later, which was apparently ported by a skeleton crew with very little time and budget.
This doesn't happen as much these days because developers are much more aware of PC (and its limitless hardware variations) during development. Also, there are more console variations to account for, e.g. the Xbox series S vs X. Devs just can't get away with being lazy with frame rate variations anymore as it will become a problem very early in quality assurance, and may even cause compliance violations which can bar your game from launching on consoles.
There's a very pervasive idea in the corporate and governing world that private industry can be more secure, and that people not having knowledge of a software's codebase is itself a security feature, not a bug.
The obvious counterpoint is that open source code has more eyes on it, so vulnerabilities are more likely to be found before they're exploited. I generally agree with this argument, but it does beg the question: how many people are actually taking the time to vett open source software?
There's also legal considerations. If your company leaks a bunch of data due to a Windows bug you can sue Microsoft (or try to, anyway). If the same happens due to a bug in an open source program you probably won't be able to recover much in damages from the rag-tag gang of free-time developers who made it, assuming you can even figure out who to file suit against in the first place.
A robust and well vetted set of tools with reliable GUI interfaces for managing very large numbers of users, their permissions, and the computers from basically anywhere on the network.
There's nothing AD does that couldn't be done in Linux, but nothing even close to the scope and maturity exists yet, as far as I know. Even Apple doesn't have anything truly comparable.
Managing a large number of Linux users probably means relying on 3rd party software which isn't baked in to the OS, which can have reliability issues, or developing user management tools in-house which is pretty hard to justify for most enterprises.
I voted for him in the 2020 primary, but if were pushing Biden out because he's too old then the same certainly applies to Bernie. Even if he's more coherent and effective now, how will he be in four years?
I actually watches the first season of the boys recently. Killer show. Its stunning that any real person could have ever looked up to Homelander in any capacity.
For software and devices running locally, sure. Much of what MS does these days is cloud based where the bulk of the electricity is being used in a data center somewhere and the customer isn't (directly) paying for it.
No, didn't know about this. My graphics card software has a similar feature that I suspect is slightly better for performance and works on everything, not just steam games.
Not only do all former presidents get a detail, all frontrunners with a credible shot at winning get secret service protection. I'm not sure what the exact requirements for that are, but Trump would almost certainly meet them.
This is really cool. I do wonder how often "third-party rights or security concerns" will be deemed to apply, though.
