OK they added a feature but is it usable yet? Gboard always seemed like the worst option to me. Never did do input right.

Expand the list, these are apps I would never put on my phone. Is there a correlation? I am curious!

I disagree. Black Mesa is Black Mesa. It is no Half Life 1. The atmosphere in one is completely lost with Black Mesa. Start with Half Life and play to Alyx. Go back to Mesa for a second way to view 1.

Care to elaborate a little?

My windows laptop does not want to conserve the battery, or use an 80% charge. It instead relies on a third party piece of software - typically the manufactures - that drags in all sorts of crap I do not want, with Eula’s I do not agree with. Linux doesnt do that, and properly preserves my battery. I don’t know whats wrong with your Mint install or laptop, but I have a laptop I put linux on 10 years ago, and it still works great and the battery is still within 95% of new, which frankly is amazing. Never had windows on it. And of course you can configure all of that with a GUI.

My other laptop had windows on it, and the intel driver would turn off features in my wifi card because I had not paid for that version. In linux it was a full feature wifi card.

My printer wont work with windows, even though it is supposed to be a windows printer. The drivers, which won’t install, even if they did will pull in a bunch of crap, and Eulas that I do not agree with. On my linux machine it just works. No drivers needed.

In Windows, it nearly bricked my Video card trying to update firmware from a driver update I did not ask for. Had to force a new driver, which in turn updated firmware. And once again, said driver adds a ton of crap and services and a Eula I do not want. On my Linux machine, it just works, AND does not require me to manage drivers at all. AMD.

I am not sure what you are trying to say about Excel, that is just a confusing sentence.

For me the world is the opposite. Linux is easy and just works. Windows is the pain in my ass and always does something annoying (exactly like this article is saying).

I daily drive Linux. Have for years. I choose to only remote into widows, and that is only if someone will pay me to do it. I have an MSDN and all MS software available to me, and even when it is free to me, I would rather not use it.

Guns don’t block a good chunk of the screen either.

But YOU do! That is why I do not like third person, I do not want to see me. All immersion is lost! \

But I started up my game, moused out to third person, and the gun sight didnt change at all. It is the same cross hairs based on gun accuracy either way.

That was two New Vegas and one VR title. Fallout 4 aiming doesn’t seem bad at all. You can manage with a sniper rifle as good as any other game. There is a slight chance that one of the mods I applied might have improved it, I havent looked through them, but it seems to me that FO4 was not nearly as bad as 3 and NV by default.

Interesting take. I very, very rarely use vats. My aim is much better, and certainly much faster.

Why do you have issues with the aiming system? I am making an assumption you are playing with a mouse and keyboard…

I think that is a bit overboard. I modded the hell out of F04 and it still is a brain dead, choices mean nothing, game. It is kind of interesting wandering around and fighting things, but nothing really ever matters and the story progresses the same.

The second more important thing for this game besides modding, is playing in survival. Anything else is like whats the point.

Like Skyrim this one is far more playable in third person

Wait, what? Fallout is much better in first person. How do you aim and shoot in third person?

I really dislike third person games to begin with, but this one just wouldnt work it unless you relied on VATS.

Does the legacy version contain all the same content and support all the dlc?

Thanks for the heads up about this on steam.

I have found OSM data (and therefore Organic Maps) more up to date than the others, at least for roads. In the past six months for me that was three different cities, and two different countries. Small sample size, but including my city there were several places that google had not updated for years.

As for your city to OSM integration: OSM does not take data dumps. But your city could encourage people to update the data in OSM or better still leverage OSM as a data truth and curate it, and load ArcGIS datastores from it.

You can help using Street Complete which is a very easy to use android app that fills in the details of whereever you are at: Is this road paved? What are the business hours here? Is there street lighting? etc.

Since they are auto backed up to my server, or icloud, or google drive, or whatever the person is using, we just link to there. Not public of course. I get that you save a step of course.

This experience is worse for many reasons, notably the terrible 500KB media size limit makes videos unwatchable.

I am trying to figure out why I want videos in my chat. Just link it. It is weird that media size if limited by carrier, not mms itself. So that is a pain, where the range (again depending on carrier) is say 3 megabytes to 500KB. Artificial limitations and inconsistency is annoying.

In any case I have Apple and Android, I have family with a mix of both as well, and I do not get all the whining. Messages work, group chats work, images work. so Meh. No big deal. Even with family in Africa, the UK, and the US.

Interesting. I have been using it for years. Are they any issues that need fixing or maybe it just works?

Meanwhile I am full red too. And love it. Absolutely no problems, smooth and fast. And best part of all, no drivers to install There is a nice opensource tool for monitoring/tweaking if I want, but I don’t have to use it.

Meanwhile Nvidia drivers are crap, and they still push for telemetry and want to know who you are.

Thats weird. I have never set up Bixby and I changed the button.

Settings > advanced features > side key (or button depending) set to open camera or open app.

No additional software needed

They are inside. So you have to open the case to set them, which is not hard. It is not obvious to anyone else that there are switches or what they are set to, so maybe being inside is a positive.

Although the picture doesnt show it, they are rather small.

yes, i believe they do. Although I only knew for certain that mine does. But it is older.

And are you really going to get your 12 year old the latest flagship android when there are cheaper options?

Looking at the kids I know, I think this is definitely one of the reasons they moved to iphones. A second line cheap android is basically a free phone, which is perfect for the first phone for emergencies and such as a kid. They break or lose it, it doesnt really matter. But the experience of having a crappy phone sticks with them and they want to move up to a “real” phone, which means “away from android”. Then all the kids get iphones about the time being in contact with friends is important, and suddenly imessage can tell you who is still using the “cheap phone”.

My pinephone has hardware switches.

Well I can only speak for myself, but looking through these comments there are plenty of people who see this as a positive! I just always have gone the extra step to get there even before google made the change.

Awesome. I don’t sit around youtube, don’t use the official app, and don’t subscribe to anyone with a real account.

Perfect.

How did they manage to take many of the elements that could make a good game and just make it… forgettable? I played it to the end, because I like walking around shooting things. I think that is about it.

Jerboa. It works for me. I used to use Relay and while it had more features, I really am not missing it that much.

Personally there is not much to into a decent app: after all it is just text and images.

Glad you made the comment, I now can hear them in my head too. AAAAAHHHHHH!

It already does. I dislike using Chrome. Firefox works better, looks better, and containers are really useful to me.
