You can be backwards compatible without just being a hardware revision. Look at the Wii, while it’s definitely built on the GameCube, it has many more features


Isn’t this an art gallery in Doom though?


Nintendo has never really cared about their competitors.




Money (to stay in business, not for personal gain). Saved you a click.


Because it’s taking the piss from the drag events, not genuine.


Streaming what to what? Most support is built directly into each app.


Is that due to government censorship, or Google not wanting to potentially feed misinformation?


I asked it which island is north of the Philippines, and it said this:

The island located directly north of the Philippines is Taiwan (officially the Republic of China). Taiwan is situated in the Luzon Strait, which separates it from the northernmost part of the Philippines, specifically the Batanes Islands. Taiwan is an island nation with its own government, though its political status is a subject of international dispute.

However, I also asked it about world events in 1989, and it started answering the Berlin Wall, then when it got to Tianenmen Square the whole response disappeared and it said “Sorry, that’s beyond my current scope. Let’s talk about something else.”

Here, try it yourself: https://chat.deepseek.com/

Edit: it’s happy to talk about the great famine and the genocide of Uyghurs though, and even other student protests. Only Tianenmen Square is censored.

Another edit: but if you ask in Spanish it’ll tell you all about it. Ask it to answer in Mandarin Chinese and it won’t even try to answer, it’ll go right to the “beyond my current scope” message (in English).



Generally I don’t keep important stuff on my phone. That stuff is in cloud storage and synced down to my phone as necessary.

Personally I use Google Drive, but you could certainly self-host an equivalent.


A more fragmented OS/driver/GPU/firmware stack means less reliable suspend/resume. It’s prettu tricky to make sure everything is restored to the proper state that all parts are expecting. If not, crash.


the new policy brought that number down to a single device per year




Huh, I could have sworn it did. Maybe they took that away at some point.

In that case, I would just use nmap or a GUI wrapper for nmap.


Or Playnite (MIT license) which aggregates all your libraries, not just Epic.



If anything, I’ve found more guides for doing stuff under Linux than Windows, simply because you can do so many more things.



That’s true, I would prefer the people doing the most work get the most reward. But currently they’re getting none, so I would settle for some.


Sure, at the cost of the people doing the work to design the product not being compensated for their labor.



I’ve tried it a few times and never gotten it to work. It sees both devices, but the connection times out.


That’s what I do as part of my initial setup on a new phone. It’s so much nicer when you tap something and it just happens instead of waiting for an animation.

Yeah, it breaks some stuff, but only like loading circle animations that try to spin at infinite speed. Nothing bad.


Yeah, but you can’t make a TV ad about good writing.


Wildstar was cool. I got a free shirt and Logitech keyboard out of their booth at PAX one year. (Never played the game, though.)


As another guy that does, yeah we can push ediscovery apps to the phone and pull all kinds of data




Yup. It’s an open standard, but that doesn’t mean they will let your client connect.


Nethack.

The first few dozen times I played it, it felt like it took forever to get anywhere. The most recent time I played, it felt quick and easy to get to the bottom. (I got stuck on something, though, and haven’t been able to continue past the valley of the dead.)


Seems like it. No mention of the fuel efficiency either, which leads me to assume it’s significantly worse than existing flights.



Linux.

I say this as someone using Win11. I’m okay with using it, but if you don’t want to, then just go to Linux.



How? They could still revoke the key. You can say HWG5NJ-1YJCTU-RZPDFH all you want, if Steam says no, you’re equally SOL.


You don’t throw an object for that, you cast a spell, and I don’t remember being able to target it, but then I never really used those spells.
