Isn't the last version already that..well..last version?

If anything they could just leverage their work with proton that allows steam to play windows games on Linux to provide similar compatibility shims for old windows on modern windows

i think the simplest explanation is this:

If your game requires a server component to be played, let players run the server. Ideally from day 1, but at least as part of shutting down your game.

it's really not hard, that's how multi-player games worked until lootboxes took off and replaced modding.

it's also safer when wanting to charge from untrusted chargers, though you can still get an adapter to block the data pins or just bring your own wall charger/battery when traveling

see https://learn.adafruit.com/... for all the various things the cable alone can support

what devices can support is definitely an issue too though.

it sounds like you understand the value of using water to clean your butthole after you poop.. so why not spend the $30 on a bidet just in case you ever do have a poop and don't want to shower? or hell just so you don't use as much TP before hopping in the shower. or for anyone else using your toilet and not wanting to hop in the shower..

Yes. and why it's wildly complicated on Windows machines where you have an audio output device for headphones and for headset, and once something starts using the mic the output device itself changes.

So joining team chat in a game will either make audio sound horrible or break it entirely if you had specified the output device instead of using default device.

leagues are bullshit. the problem is having higher standards for others than for yourself. if you don't want to settle for someone like yourself, focus on improving yourself not trying to date.

i am not making shit up, I promise I've ran many game servers over the years. I am obviously generalizing as of course there are counter examples especially MMOs.

But then there is warcraft 1 through 3 that were peer to peer and quake, half life, unreal, painkiller, enemy territory, and just about every fps game of the era that came with the software to run your own dedicated server, or could host a listen server while playing.

If you want to just look at a single very mainstream example, look at call of duty. Everything up to and including cod4:mw came with the software to run your own server. nothing after it did, though a few let you 'run your own server' by paying their approved hosting provider to run a copy for you, but it was always under their control and not something you could just set up on hardware you already have.

I'm not sure why this shocks people. It's definitely not new or tesla specific.

Does your car have an app that let's you see data from your car or do anything to remotely control it like unlock the doors? then that can be done by the car company that runs the backend the app communicates with.

It's also not limited to app based things, cars have had this since OnStar was a thing. It's just much more obvious these days.

growing it like a garden is a perfect phrase imo

because on windows or Mac it may have just worked. ..until it doesn't, or leaves your windows scaled wrong or placed on monitors that don't exist or some other failure condition. at which point you reboot and hope for the best.

when it doesn't work on Linux I'd check logs, actual configuration, and even the source if I need to.and then I'd hopefully improve things and make it work the way I want it to.

Mega corporations like nestle get their money from us normal civilians not caring about what we consumes impact on the environment.

Like if you literally disbanded nestle over night, not even splitting them up or selling things off but somehow just got rid of them and all their product's... does the negative impact on the environment go away? or do new companies grow to meet the unmet demand and all that's changed is what company is providing cheap goods at the expense of the environment?

All I can think of are some variations of you trusting a service to validate your id and give you a token that just asserts your id has been validated.

But it's still not really privacy preserving because it relies on trusting both parties to not collaborate against your privacy. if at some point the id provider decides to start keeping records of what tokens were generated from your id, and the service provider tracking what was consumes with that token, then you can still put it all back together.

I dont have any specific llms to recommend but if you do want to go that route you could always run it remotely through something like Google collab.

But I don't know if I would trust the results of an llm doing this as any mistake would make your entire resume untrustworthy

it's not about using all 100 IP addresses for every atom

it's about having large enough ranges to allocate them in ways that make sense instead of arbitrarily allocating them by availability

There's a lot of things that make the Bluetooth experience better.. it's just almost all focused on mobile phones, maybe apple laptops if you stay in their walled gardens, but definitely not stock windows.

I say stock because if you do use windows and want to use Bluetooth you can improve things with a third party driver https://www.bluetoothgoodies.com/a2dp/ it's still not great but at least you can use better codecs than default

that's interesting because #4 is the famous example of the Brian Posehn joke, and he's actually a metal head. So if that's true it's possibly the origin of why he even used them for the joke.

another useful one is <(cmd here)

It's like $(cmd here) but instead of returning the output of the command as a string passed into the arguments, it makes a new file descriptor for the output of the command and returns the path to it, for use in commands that want a file as an argument.

So for example if you want to use diff to compare your local passwd file to a remote one..

diff -u <(ssh host1 cat /etc/passwd) /etc/passwd

Admittedly I can't think of many things I've used this for outside of diff and alternatives to diff..but I've used it there a lot, like comparing the results of running two slightly different queries.

The commerce should be regulated imo- there's a lot of bad things people will do for profit when not properly regulated.

That doesn't prevent you from growing your own or consuming your buds bud, that's just personal use and does not need to abide by the same regulations
