Smaller studios have been consistently putting out good games as of late anyway. Indy and AA studios have the freedom to make fun things instead of having to check every box on a spreadsheet.

It’s absolutely sexual harassment.

But, to your question: you can’t just say something has underage nudity when the nudity is of an adult model. It’s not CSAM.

Anyone with half a brain will certainly claim as much. Even if people don’t fully believe it, it will blunt the most serious of social consequences.

Taking secret nude pictures of someone is quite a bit different than…not taking nude pictures of them.

It’s not CSAM to put a picture of someone’s face on an adult model and show it to your friend. It’s certainly sexual harassment, but it isn’t CSAM.

Your best bet is to shoot for one with an AMD Ryzen chip, as they have by-far the best iGPU available.

Getting a dedicated GPU into a mini PC is a pretty big ask, but the above will even do moderate gaming tasks. My laptop with a Ryzen iGPU plays Guild Wars 2 just fine, for example.

A self-built Mini-ITX box might also be up your alley, as those can take proper PCI-E graphics cards.

If you live in the EU or UK, sign it.

These aren’t just a petition that can be ignored, these actually have a legal process tied to them.

It’s the summation of all of the above.

Does SUSE require a payment up front, as well as a subscription in order to continue receiving updates, as well as even more payments to ensure hoovered data resides in your country?

That is good to know.

Though the ask here is getting pretty large:

• The OS requires a paid license
• In order to continue receiving security updates, you have to pay an additional subscription fee
• If you want all your hoovered data to reside in your own country, you have to pay even more

Yeah, it’s very unlikely it survived.

If you have your encryption key backed up, you have a chance to decrypt it still. It’s also possible, but unlikely, the key somehow survived the ISO write and it was written elsewhere on the drive, allowing the key to be recovered. I would only trust such with a professional. (There is basically a smaller encrypted section that your typed-in password decrypts, that section contains the encryption key the rest of the drive uses.)

Honestly though, if you have your stuff backed up (you do have your stuff backed up elsewhere?!?), just restore from your backup and call this a loss.

If you don’t have a backup, this was your wakeup call. Always have a backup going forward.

Don’t fret it, happens to everyone. And the rapidly changing pace of the news here makes it all the more likely.

the website’s admins do not want you to have any control over your front page. The end result is utterly alienating.

This is one of the biggest things. Back when I would netflix often, I would constantly be annoyed when the ‘continue watching’ dialog was not the first one. Stop moving it around! Now I just watch everything locally. It’s so much nicer.

There is no reason streaming should be such a pain in the ass, and it amazes me the industry has made basic, paid access to shows a chore. And they wonder why viewership is not great*.

*Also the writing generally sucks ass and assumes I’m not paying attention. No, seriously, they assume you aren’t paying attention and write shows as such now. It makes so many things unwatchable.

i couldn’t understand why an indie developer (if they have any ethics) would sell out like that

It’s pretty tempting to know your next offering will sell, even if not a single customer plays it. No need to consider layoffs, etc.

I’m still confused on why Netflix has any games.

Yeah, the reporting I have seen says the ceasefire wasn’t fully followed at first, but has been holding since.

I’m also confused by the title, as even the article says ‘fuck’ has been said by presidents before crowds.

How to run something you don’t trust without performance lost?

A virtual machine is generally your best choice. You build a little box around it and tell it to have fun inside that box.

It doesn’t work well for games (you can do it with games, but it’s generally not worth it), but for smaller programs, it is a very reliable choice with minimal performance impact.

When they try to negotiate for food or economic assistance, it gets framed as extortion

When one threatens death and destruction in exchange for money and goods, one does frame that as extortion, yes.

Why the hell would you want Iran to have nukes? Just because Israel and/or US bad, doesn’t mean Iran is good. Far, far from it.
