It’s also ridiculous to think it’s still the same language that was built in two weeks, like absolutely no work was done in it over time.

That Blizzard is selling their games on Steam at all speaks volumes about how poorly they are doing.

No, it doesn’t at all. All of this was just preparation for the Microsoft acquisition, by having Actiblizzard games in a third party platform as a way to show that they’re “not creating a monopoly”

Affinity Photo is $60 once and you own it forever, with free updates. It’s pretty much the only actually good Photoshop replacement.

I really appreciate you saying “if your situation and use case allows it”. I’m sick of people “suggesting” these kind of things by just saying “don’t do this” “stop doing that” while completely ignoring that not everyone has the same use cases, preferences and possibilities for such.

CS GO (now CS 2) has constantly been on the top 5 most played steam games globally for a decade now, so yeah, I think people are still playing this game.

With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder how privacy is still a word in the dictionary

And there’s NeoWin again with the Windows 12 clickbaits. This “leak” is just Windows 11 IoT Enterprise Subscription, and there’s absolutely nothing nowhere that even mentions the number 12.

Up to a month ago, people were irritated and would constantly complain about having to use “too many chat apps” to talk with people. The EU then demands messaging apps to be interoperable, now people are irritated and will constantly complain that they do not want to send messages to X service or participate in Y service group chats

It’s comical

“More reasons to Avoid the Raspberry Pi”

I didn’t know we even had reasons to avoid it

It’s funny how out of touch with reality Americans are.

Here in Brazil I’m paying around 20 USD for fiber optic 1000mbps down and 500mbps up without data caps. Brazilian law also only considers piracy a crime if there’s profit (i.e. trying to sell a movie I’ve downloaded), so there’s no need to hide anything.

Editing for more information:

My home internet speeds almost never drop below 90%, there’s also a law that requires ISPs to deliver at least 80% of what was paid for. You can easily port forward, there are no blocks or anything. We also have dynamic IPs, but you can easily get around that by using a DDNS.

My mobile plan is around $15, I get 45GB monthly with 5G at no extra cost (5G gets around 300-600mbps down depending on the time of the day), unlimited calling to any number in the country, unlimited SMS (nobody uses SMS though), and for roaming I get 1GB daily internet and 1 hour daily calling with no extra cost.

All of this is cheap and very accessible to everyone.
