Zaslav and whoever is influencing the bad movies at Sony are a danger to the industry. I do believe Warner Brothers was better before (like long ago) but they got in the make money fast mentality and took hostage good franchises doing cash grab after cash grab. Of course, making money is the name of the game but either you produce shit quick or produce a good product. That is how Marvel got where they are, with good products, but as you know they also switched to the quick-shit money making strategy.
I agree with you and I think he was more baffled about trying to pay than the tax itself. Which it is a very real problem in Germany for foreigners. Everything is too local if you don't have EC Karte you cannot pay. But that the baffling part, if you are a Customs office you need to accept ANY kind of payment, specifically something as standard as a Credit Card.
For those on Linux/SteamDeck, check LatencyFleX. It can be used with Intel, AMD and Nvidia cards. Careful with games with Anti-Cheat they might not like it and get you banned.
Agree, I own a lot of games in Steam but most come from bundles or were not bought a full price. I do buy full price games on GOG because I can have a backup offline.
Are you on the open source drivers or in the official ones? You should be using the open source as they are better in this case.
I have the impression it has to do with your monitor as well, could it be some HDR functionality? Try opening the OSD of your monitor and check if something changes when on the application
You can install shit in Windows too, it is exactly the same case when grandma installs too many toolbars in Internet Explorer 6. No one is warning you there that you might be installing malware.
What I mean is that there are already curated repositories for each distro that can be accessed easily by the package manager. If you go outside of your package manager and repos, gloves are off, you better know what you are doing.
Regarding custom ROMs, since you brought it up and being a custom ROM enthusiast, there are still a lot of complaints, nastiness and pressure from the users similar to this. Installing a ROM has definitely a higher knowledge barrier and that makes you aware of the risks, also you will brick your phone before you are able to install a ROM... if you don't know what you are doing.
Finally, the developer here in this very lemmy post mentions that the OP of that bug report was working with them in order to solve the issue. The one on the screenshot was just a random dude unnecessarily being rude. Free software is usually delivered as is with no warranties, specifically small projects and libraries.
There is always a risk using libraries from others. If you install something without knowing what you are doing and without considering the risks, you should not be installing it.
Not to pry, but "having fun" is subjective and therefore there is nothing "wrong". It is up to the subject to decide or feel that something fun is happening.
You are "subjectively right" but you are also "objectively wrong".
A clear reason is that Aim Assist was implemented to make the player have fun. K&M do not need this support because you can aim very accurately without previous training.
The barrier of entry, as you call it, is reduced artificially for the controller.
But alas, do what is fun for you. There is nothing to prove to anyone in single player games. I play third person (Souls games) games with controller and FPS (Cyberpunk mainly) with k&m.
Yes, but isn't the 40Mbps a bottleneck? If I have 3 devices with Netflix all at 4k (which supposedly uses 25Mbps) while gaming, won't the latency be affected due to the traffic on the line?.
Why do you need to connect over your Landlord's router, for privacy I would recommend using a VPN but I digress.
Anyway, you can just measure your speed/latency to any near server. I would just Ookla's speed test or any game that has that functionality.
40Mbps is not really much so unless the other devices are using the internet connection constantly you are at no risk. You could also limit other devices speed or set QoS so your PC or console has priority.
This is based on my empirical knowledge, so if anyone can correct me please do so.
That is actually a really good point, I was grouping all together.
That being said, as other user mentioned, to debloat and do other things like having a system wide adblocker you do need root. There are of course rootless alternatives but having root is more persistent.
Rooting is one of the very few ways to still get security updates for older phones. Of course, you have to trust the release group but at least there is something.
Wendy's is not in a position to do this, they will try it but the locations will die. McDonald's could pull it off but they know better.
