So are we committing fraud if we turn on Spotify and leave it playing in an empty, sound-proof room??
That contractual agreement has nothing to do with the user or artist, its between advertisers and the platform. That can’t be what they got this guy for.
Its very unlikely you would brick the computer in the sense of not being repairable. Most likely mistake would be accidentally wiping everything that’s on the laptop currently. As always, backup your important files to an external device first just in case.
For now… But they like to just turn shit on willy nilly… They’ve done it with onedrive before (and promptly deleted the local copies of files). Even when they don’t force it on during an update, they have a ton of ridiculous pop-ups telling you that you should turn it on and people click them by accident. I know I don’t trust them to keep it turned off.
Same. Parts designed in freecad take me about 10 times longer and have about 1/4 of the “polish” and nice finishing touches compared to the ones I’ve done in fusion.
3d printing and even designing my own basic parts/items. Seems daunting as all hell to get right but honestly it wasn’t that bad to figure out. Fusion360 was a dream to learn. I’ve been trying to make the switch to freecad and struggling though. :(
Well god damn it, you got me. Lol
Here here. And I know some modern word processors already put a slightly larger space after a sentence, but it isn’t two full spaces and that mostly only happens in non-monospace fonts where a space character is barely a gap to start with. Two full spaces after every sentence. Yes even in SMS where there is a character limit. If I can’t fit what I want to say properly then I’m not saying it and these damn kids can rot in their unintelligible run-on looking dribble.
I’d like to suggest a game called Planet Crafter. Me and my significant other picked it up recently and it’s a fun and chill crafty survival terraforming game. There is no combat or monsters trying to eat you, survival is just like oxygen water and food bars, so that might be a turn off for some, but it fit the vibe we were wanting to play. Crafting / base building is similar to subnautica.
Yes. Unfortunately. “a virus? How did I get that? What’s an anti-virus? You must be wrong, I just do a little bit of web browsing and downloading music.” (this was in the windows xp days that I’m specifically flashing back to)
I feel like they fucked up with the first one because the poster already looked like a sequel.
Most users are fucking idiots and will continue to raw-dog the internet while visiting the most malicious sites possible.
I cannot for the life of me get bazzite to use the Nvidia gpu in my laptop for shit. Like proper 3d games refuse to launch and simpler 2d games run but at like 4fps. The icon in the system tray for gpu selection/info won’t let me select dgpu, only integrated and hybrid. Gpu basically never gets touched. I’m sure it’s less of a bazzite issue and more of an Nvidia drivers on Linux issue, but can’t really test full functionality of bazzite like this.
And that’s with the Asus laptop Nvidia gpu specific image of bazzite. Very disappointed because I otherwise love bazzite. I have been keeping the windows drive in the laptop specifically for gaming until I can figure out how to fix this. I wish there were more laptop options with amd dGPUs… Looked at microcenter today and there was only one option. :(
Oh cool. I somehow completely forgot about balloons in general, lol. Thanks for the history!
That’s like 20 years old… An i7 is more accurate to the comic about a 10-year old laptop.
“And then you can start imagining what would happen if companies start abusing this, like Microsoft and/or Apple paying to make sure only their OSes load by default.”
I’m convinced that this is definitely the end goal for Microsoft, especially with the windows 11 TPM requirement. We are in the early stages of their plan to mold the PC ecosystem to be more like mobile. This is the biggest reason I decided to move to Linux - it’s now or never in my opinion.
Today I learned… My mistake. I was basing solely on the experiences I have had playing with the phones of 2 people I know that have them (one is the fold, one is the flip), the screens did not feel like glass screens to me, felt more like some type of plastic touch screens.
They aren’t glass screens.
There are almost always ways to verify the correct owner for something like this… None of which it sounds like Microsoft was willing to do, as they only seemed to care about what the current password is.
You are making an assumption that the person can’t provide any way to identify himself as the owner. The story as written states they didn’t care about anything other than the current password.
I guess it depends on how “standard” is defined. Ie, its pretty standard for shirts to have 2 arm holes, one head/neck hole, and one body hole and therefore they work for the vast majority of users.
