Is there any electronics made only for the UK? What for example?

Well that guy is the monetization director, so his job is literally to insert micro transactions into everything.

vscode without any extension is very performant.

It’s easy to get better performance when you don’t have features.

Windows have always been trash. Windows 9x were the worse.

Windows NT was better, Windows XP was trash at release then got better with updates (the service packs).

Windows Vista was a shitshow, then 7 was better. Windows 8 was horrible, the 10 was a bit better.

Windows always oscillates between trash and acceptable. There is not much to “ruin” to be honest.

If a game doesn’t run on Linux I can’t even try it. No risk of it becoming my favorite game!

XBOX must have 100% of games available on Playstation. Otherwise nobody will ever switch.

No matter how they package it, running a binary downloaded from Internet has the same attack surface

There is no emergency that can’t be handled by the adults of the school.

I can understand needing a phone for the commute, but at school it should stay in the bag turned off.

The title is wrong. It’s not about proving that the owner is dead (which is easy, you get a death certificate when a relative dies).

It’s about proving that the person requesting access of the dead person account is actually the person legally receiving the dead person’s possessions (or GOG account specifically).

The hardware in an arcade cabinet is either a raspberry pi or a regular desktop PC.

In France there is a limit, about 30k every 15 years. It’s not messed up, it’s necessary if we want inheritance taxes to have any weight.

You don’t inherit debt but they’re paid on the estate before inheritance.

So you can’t get just debt as inheritance, but debt are only lost for the creditor if the person who died had a negative net worth.

The population in rural areas is so low that no matter how you induce demand, it won’t work.

Obviously if the pods take 2h to arrive it’s not worth it

It’s neither. The French “U” sound doesn’t exist in English so I can’t really give an example from an English word.

That said, being a global company they’re probably fine with the default English pronunciation that would be “you be soft”.

I’d say it’s just the latest innovation in procedural generation. But it’s still just that.

OK, it’s 2pm. With this system, you call a pod and ride it. With a rural train, you check the schedule and see that the next train is at 5pm. And you have to plan your trip back as well. Great, time to take your car.

And you might say “let’s have trains run at least once per hour then”. That means running empty trains all day, not sure it’s the best way to spend public money.

Trains suck if you don’t have frequency, and because of the population density with a good frequency more than half of the trains will be completely empty and the rest almost empty.

It’s from Valve, they’ll make sure it works on the Steam Deck.

That’s precisely because they made a business around it that they got attacked.
