Giant screens are a gimmick too. A practical phone would be a 4"-5" phone with a rough screen and a long lasting battery.

These giant phones and folding phones are boutique items.


You misunderstood. It’s not practical for YOU. It’s practical for Samsung who constantly needs a new gimmick to continue to hike the price of flagship devices higher.


If this lets you monitor the patch status of the end clients in your org, then it’s actually cheaper than existing solutions used for managing regular Windows updates.

The only questionable part is how reliable, trustworthy, and secure is 0patch themselves?

Allowing a third party access to patch system level files opens the risk of a rootkit install. (In fact their agent being able to access system would function much like a rootkit itself).

They could easily backdoor something into thousands, or even tens of thousands of PC very quickly. Make a huge botnet, steal data, etc, etc.

Assuming they are trustworthy themselves, if their security is compromised, either from hackers or even a rogue employee, the same results could happen and could take a long time to discover.


I haven’t heard it in years and it got stuck in my head true second I read the name above.



Fuck EA.

Yet another example of a situation where if a company refuses to maintain an IP they should have to give it up.


Tech sites say that it’s officially licenses by Steam, and it has the Steam logo on it.

Either they have Valve’s blessing on it, or Valve’s legal team is fuckin sleeping.



Saw a post today with the new “official” Steam Controller. It’s trash. None of the features that made the first one cool. Doesn’t even have rumble.



I’d actually be OK with a SC game that has tons of cosmetic paid DLC. Pump money into the game to keep them developing it, and add some visual variety on the map.i stead of fighting against 3 Teran teams that all look the same, you’d have 1 team that looks like zombies or a football team or other wacky shit.


Yeah, it really sux that Ububtu made this acceptable and Windows copied them.

You’ll downvote me, but it’s true. They did it first with fucking Amazon ads over a decade ago.


the goal was to not lock down their hardware to someone else’s operating system

The irony is now that the Deck is locked down to Valve’s ecosystem, while other devices can play games from Steam too but also from Origin, GOG, Xbox, EA Play…


With Nova selling out to a advertising firm, it’s time to find an alternative anyway.


The Armory Crate SE app on the Asus Ally does a great job launching games from all the different stores/launchers.

I’ve been wondering how hard it would be to get it working on another PC.


SBMM for single player? As long as it means actual focus on some good single player game content it sounds ok.


My prediction is Xbox Series 360 or they might skip that and call it the Xbox Series One.


I’ve yet to make it to the opening menu screen of this game.

Having to make a login that requires you to go to an outside website, then to have that website be completely unusable… Tried on two occasions and never bothered to try again.

It’s a shame because I was an avid PD2 player.




Why are you counting the One S annd One X as new releases, but not counting the refresh of the 360 that came out (2010)?


You said in your first comment I replied to that it’s on all their plans.

This comment you said it’s not on my plan.

So that’s not “all” of their plans.


It’s been an extra charge on my last three tmo plans including the one I got two weeks ago. AND each time, the hotspot has a different data cap than the phone’s main data.
