It’s smart. Also, developers have a solid benchmark to set their games to. Console has long had the benefit of a stable hardware set over the course of many years, which makes it easier to develop to the broadest possible market. Skipping incremental APU updates has a benefit of keeping a longer benchmark for game developers hoping to boost sales by targeting the market with handhelds. Valve was pretty clear in their communication in this regard, which is great.

Yeah, it’s been acknowledged and solutions have been discussed as future Todos

I imagine it should be prioritized though, along with some of the other malicious upload issue mitigation bugs.

My deck is more reliable at booting at all. I’ve got some sort of issue happening. I’m not sure if my video card is going or something, it doesn’t like sharing memory, or what, but it crashes constantly on my PC.

Steamdeck is worse performance, but at least I can play it…

Yeah, while it is annoying, I know there is a whole art form to those thumbnail images and there are other people I respect that are worse about them. I think they’ve talked pretty openly about how those are simply the annoying part of being in the YouTube business and if they didn’t, they would just be leaving views on the table.

That’s what I told her. I’m in Oregon and she’s in Minnesota. I think it’s just new and different for her. She’s afraid of an “unwelcome element” coming into her suburb 🙄.

I was using it as a description of the age of my mother. She just happens to also personify the stereotypes of her generation as well. I love her, but I roll my eyes when she tells me about her latest scrap with a city council member and the interaction she had with the developers of the piece of land being developed near her house.

My boomer mom is all up in her suburban town councils business because she’s afraid there is going to be a “marijuana shop” that goes in across the highway from her neighborhood in the strip mall that’s being developed.

Anti-drug propaganda really did a number on that generation

Would you hire a dev with no comprehension of the task, who can not reliably communicate what their code does, can not be tasked with finding and fixing their own bugs, is incapable of having accountibility, can not be reliably coached, is often wrong and refuses to accept or admit it, can not comprehend PR feedback, and who requires significantly greater scrutiny of their work because it is by explicit design created to look correct?

Not me, but my boss would… wait a minute…

Google Chat replaced hangouts and is not E2E.

Google Messages is the Android default SMS App, at least on Pixel phones. It is Android’s best equivalent to “iMessage”

Considering giving to any church 501©(3) themselves are considered “charitable donations” when it comes to taxes, this rings a little hollow. If you consider a church as a charity itself, and those churches are soliciting donations every week in services, of course you’re going to see higher charitable giving from areas with a lot of churches/religious. That said, my gripe is not with religious based charities, it’s with churches. Salvation Army can continue to do what it does, religious affiliated childrens hospitals, etc. The amount of money that is spent on congregations is just a waste and it’s a shame.

So do secular charities.

Just imagine what could have been done in the last 300 years if every dollar that was donated to churches went to some other cause, or back into the pockets of the masses. There is an immense amount of wealth that is trapped in the collective real estate, bank accounts, etc owned by churches. I’m not even talking about megachurches or the mormon’s giant stack of cash, just mom’n’pop little parishes that are everywhere across the US.

If ALL that money was still kicking around in the economy and in the pockets of people to spend on real things, building real businesses, etc…we’d be way better off.

Always makes me sad when I visit my in-laws who live in a particularly bible thumpy area and you go and there are spots there where churches outnumber normal businesses. It seems like it’s just a huge drain on the local economy devoting that much money into propping up churches of various kinds…

It’s…perfect. So beautiful.

Yeah, I tried one after many years…I had fond memories of the old PS2 versions.

PC port of Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends and janky everything was a barrier just too high to overcome.

Sigh… You’re free to go sir. Have a nice evening Mr sovereign user.

I have said “belay that order” to my google assistant so many times and they still haven’t figured it out.

Open, so that the air that gets pumped into my room can tell the Mr. Thermostat in the hall that it’s actually fine in there and they don’t need to call Mr. Furnace or Mrs. A/C.

Not while browsing on “All”, but this is easily remedied by maintaining a subscription list and browsing on “Subscribed”. Typically, porn is limited to specific communities which can just be not added to your subscription list.

Yeah, this seems really smart to me, as long as you can avoid the obvious problems with it being submerged in fucking corrosive as shit saltwater. Makes way more sense than using A/C since the ocean is a giant heatsink.

I am guessing OP is worried about either these things being a driver of why the oceans are heating up (not the blanket of CO2 around Earth in the atmosphere from decades of fossil fuel powered binging) or the ocean being too hot to effectively cool these things, which also doesn’t seem plausible outside of very specific locations/depths.

I think this would be better than doing it on land, however I also think that it’ll be costly and need to be over-engineered to survive the environment and not worth it in the end (as MS has apparently come to the same determination).
