  • Windows does have its own command-line package manager. I don't know if it can remove Recall, but last I checked it could remove Cortana. It would just get reinstalled soon after, but that could be prevented with some file-naming trickery. If you give a file the same name as the folder used to have and make it read-only, it couldn't remake the folder and wouldn't reinstall.

    I wouldn't be surprised if you can still do that now.

  • The 3d gloop mentioned in the video is a solvent that's used for welding PLA. You could definitely use that to properly seal it. And being built from blocks like in the video (which is due to a limitation of the size of a 3d printer) means that any leak would probably be limited to a single block at a time and probably not catastrophic.

  • Not OP, but that's one part of it. You can turn down graphics, and games will still look fine on the small screen, but some games just need some extra power.

    I haven't played RDR2 but something like Returnal runs okayish on the Deck, but runs great on my PC. If I want good framerates on the Deck, I need to turn everything down, and it's acceptable on the go, but at home I could run it at 60 fps easy with better graphics if I stream it.

  • I'm gonna pick up Selaco again at some point, but my experience with it so far has been just okay. I'm particularly annoyed at the color schemes and the dark areas combining with the low resolution to make enemies really hard to see. Sometimes I'm low health and sneaking around to avoid being seen, and I look down a dark hallway, see nothing at all, and then bullets start flying at me and I don't see the enemies themselves until they come closer.

  • Starbucks sizes aren't really descriptive. Tall is the small size and the only one named in English, grande means large in Italian but is actually the medium-sized cup, and venti means twenty in Italian which is meant to be twenty ounces but the name doesn't tell you how big it is compared to the other sizes. It's dumb.

  • uBlock Origin and similar ad blockers stop YouTube ads. Occasionally YouTube changes something and ads sneak through until someone updates the filters.

    Now that Chrome has essentially neutered its ad blockers, the only option for many people is Firefox on desktop and mobile, which still has a working version of uBO.

  • At that point, what even is the purpose of defining it? It's such a specific term that was designed to only apply to their hardware. It's like creating a new word for a car because you added air conditioning to it.

    Sure, they had the first GPU because they coined a term that only applied to one specific product.

  • And also the concept of your collection of souls being recoverable from your last point of death.

    I know the "death bag" mechanic had been done before, but the disappearing cache is a core element of Soulslike gameplay that has been repeated so many times since then. It adds a sense of urgency and FOMO to the recovery of your stuff. If you die again, it's gone for good.

  • The first GPU card sold to the public was the GeForce 256 in 1999

    3dfx cards like the Voodoo and Voodoo2 were 3d accelerators that predated nVidia's offerings.

    And even from nVidia themselves, the Riva TNT was a GPU released before the GeForce models.
