Really they need to work on power usage and temperature of x86 so the chips are easier to use in mobile devices without a fan and dying in 3 hours. Stationary devices seem to be chugging along with x86 comfortably, but the chips are currently impractical otherwise.

Is it much different to something like Pop_OS? I usually hear of Bazzite as a third-party ROG Ally OS.

With anti-cheat being one of the major things causing games to be Windows dependant, that is hilarious.

I’m just happy I only need to use it on one PC ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Gonna get to enjoy some reg edits on that machine then!

Edit: So I just looked at that machine that is set to take all new updates, and it doesn’t look to be installed like it is for that guy in the video. However, it looks like this machine hasn’t picked up 24H2 yet, which is strange as I thought it was meant to be worldwide now?

MS really can’t make stuff easy.

On my Windows 11 machine I just uninstalled Copilot via the normal app uninstall process. Unless I’m misunderstanding, I don’t think it’s tied into the OS in any fundamental way. I assume most debloating scripts include the step anyway.

Kinda crap that it’s installed by default though.

Does holding Alt in Baldur’s Gate 3 fall under this? It doesn’t have any kind of visual effect, but I do often find myself needing to use it to see what can be picked up or interacted with in the area.

I always feel like an old granny when I read about passkeys because I’ve never used one, and I’m worried I’ll just lock myself out of an account. I know I probably wouldn’t, but new things are scary.

Are they normally used as a login option or do they completely replace MFA codes? I know how those work; I’m covered with that.

One of my mates has been pinged for it before, but it seems like he just got a stern letter.

I put my setup behind a VPN anyway. Proton hasn’t done me wrong yet.

“They have to get rid of it unless they decide not to.”

I assume it’s just gonna be inherited by Mauritius.

Will we ever see an official HTPC ISO release? I’m currently running Chimera and liking it so far, but wouldn’t be against dropping it if something 1st party comes along.

But I don’t see any reason why they “wouldn’t be able” to have a deal anymore.

It’s this part of the article that stuck out to me:

the DOJ suggested limiting or prohibiting default agreements and “other revenue-sharing arrangements related to search and search-related products.” That would include Google’s search position agreements with Apple’s iPhone and Samsung devices — deals that cost the company billions of dollars a year in payouts. The agency suggested one way to do this is requiring a “choice screen,” which could allow users to pick from other search engines.

What’s the likelihood these cameras even stay up?

Any guesses on how this would affect Android and Firefox?

I’m not 100% on how the Android business works so I’m not sure how important Goggle’s involvement is.

Firefox relies on Google’s ‘default search engine’ bribe quite a lot, and they might not be able to offer that anymore(?)

Anyone interested in a successor should check out Restitched.

Sony seem all-in on Astro Bot as a mascot over Sackboy, so LBP might just be buried as an IP outside of crossover references.

Fun fact: It’s been as long between the release of RDR to this port as it was between the release of RDR and the launch of the N64.

Saying it’s AI even when it’s completely irrelevant makes it modern and cool though.

Maybe they should build a city in the ocean where these intellectuals have full control. Maybe experiment with some cool drugs.
