Same thing happened to me. 7-day ban evasion suspension instantly into a perma on three accounts at once all because a single subreddit mod threw a fit when I accidentally posted there again off r/all on an alt.

They were all made with the same email address so I could have easily made another alt by now and kept posting but I've taken it as an opportunity to do a Reddit detox

To me it feels like Reddit but before Reddit became so popular. That has both good and bad aspects, but overall I enjoy posting here.

Yup, every Reddit screw up is an opportunity to get more users here.

OP wants their Xbox controller to just work so I don't think Linux is the best option

I didn't care for the game much at launch and bounced off it, great idea but none of the systems were very developed. Combat specifically was very watered down.

Is it worth coming back now that it's had a bunch of updates?

Valve is probably perfectly happy with just making sure proton compatibility is good. They don't expect developers to change their whole workflow to cater to the Deck, that's why they've done so much work with proton.

I really hope the order of events is the actual order they happened in because the escalation is perfect

Nothing but respect for anyone that old who can change their mind when they're wrong. It's easy to fall into a rut of stubbornness.

Prigozhin sobering up early is one of history's big disappointments.

I remember insiders saying that he was scared he'd get shot even before it happened. Wouldn't be surprised.

Even if you turn it off the radio is still powered on and scanning in the background (wifi too), unless you specifically disable that as well. The battery drain is negligible

Lemmy has Nazis on it too you know

People grant kernel access all the time without thinking. Video game anti-cheat is a good example. It's a pretty potent vector of attack since you can never trust these companies to keep themselves secure.

That number would be even higher if everyone used untraceable and non-reversible crypto transactions.

Figure skating is a dance. Hell, gymnastics is basically a dance as well.

I think the most realistic alternative is to just have an 'earliest end-of-life date' plainly visible at the time of purchase. Keeping these games online forever isn't feasible, but shutting down something people paid for with the expectation of continuous service isn't good either. Just make it clear how long the developers WILL support the game for, at the very minimum, and let people make their decision based on that. And mandate refunds for any live service game that doesn't last as long as promised.

Yeah voice clarity is a so important. The narrator in Stanley Parable was just so pleasant to listen to.

If this was a "Trump idea", why didn't he do it while president?

J6 was only able to happen because Trump was the current president. They're in a far better position to be ready this time.

He mis-calculated who is buying his cars.
