You’re gonna have a hard time convincing people this is legit with a brand new account with no post history. Regardless, good luck. My dog just cost me nearly two grand for surgery last week.

You can say Nazi. Self censorship doesn’t help anyone other than advertisers

Am I crazy or is the aspect ratio on that screen a little weird

Put a Pi hole on your home network

Come on, Satya’s bonus depends on it!

Not sure this is actually newsworthy, but I burst out laughing at the one I saw where a family was blessing Ultraman Tiga. With that said, I’m off to get my poopie butt cleaned

I could see this being turned into a clip with footage of the plant being struck with the Curb Your Enthusiasm music

There was a time I’d watch V for Vendetta every November 5th, but that’s fallen off in recent years. Still a great movie; it’s one of those few films I think is better than the source material. I have also probably seen Billy Madison 500 times. There are a ton more I could list but those are jumping out in my head

I think some people can be overly smug about their lack of belief, but I don’t think that means it’s akin to a religion

I’ll usually put a pint in for 10 seconds or so. It softens the ice cream pretty uniformly, just a bit more on the edges than the center.

I hit the same issue a couple weeks ago. I wonder if it’s tied to the Fediverse Chick thing or people who were spamming CSAM

This is reminding me of how Ars Technica recently metaphorically stepped in it in regards to AI BS in a story less than a month ago. What an information nightmare we’re wading into

Windows Central? They’re not affiliated with MS, unless they also don’t like the nickname.

Quick resume is pretty much the only thing about the Series X that has stood out for me. It’s nice being able to hop into multiple games without waiting for loads and being right back where you left off. It’s by no means a must have though. It’s way better than the PS5’s equivalent.

Windows central is reporting that the windows 12 rumor is bs. I think they went so far as to call it an AI slop fabricated story.

Yeah, I’m hoping they don’t wall that stuff off from the general PC space for business reasons.

Their emulation work is one of the few bright spots of the Xbox platform on the past decade. Things like FPS boost and Auto HDR are nice for improving older games. I’m not sure if any third party emulators can do the same, admittedly.

The PC cannot currently play non-ported Xbox games at this time, though. I get why you’re saying “just a PC” but that’s a distinction worth noting. I hope the PC platform in general will gain the ability to play all Xbox games and not just Xbox branded hardware. I also hope PCs gain the ability to use some of the features that are nice about Xbox (mainly Quick Resume).

Yeah I’d agree with that. I guess the question then is what wins out, their desire for revenue or their desire to lose a regional adversary. I guess that’ll depend on how quickly, if at all, the US navy can secure the Straight of Hormuz
